Finally the last chapter. I just want say thanks to everyone who has
reviewed this fic.
Chapter 9: The Meeting
Cindy reached the park first. She stood waiting at the edge of the forest waiting for Jimmy to show just as they had planned. She checked her watch nervously every ten seconds. Cindy kept thinking what if he doesn't turn up, what if he's changed his mind, what if Libby and the rest of the gang had been playing an awful joke on her. She heard the town clock strike 10:15 that was the time they had arranged to meet. It got to 20 past and Cindy was just about to turn around and walk away when she saw a shadowy figure heading in her direction. The figure would have looked menacing apart from the fact that it had the unmistakeable hair of Jimmy Neutron.
With every passing step that brought him closer to Cindy, her heart beat faster and faster. Every second was like an age, it seemed like forever before Jimmy and Cindy could both see each other clearly. Once they reached other face-to-face they stood in silence for a moment or two until Jimmy broke the silence binding them.
"Hi Cindy," he said nervously, "you don't look surprised to see me."
"I'm not, because I knew," she said, sounding calmer than she felt.
"I thought you'd guess," said Jimmy, "you've always had brains as well as gorgeous looks." As soon as he'd said that he knew it had sounded lame, but he carried on all the same. "If you knew why did you come?" Jimmy asked, "I thought you hated me, did you come to tease me or something?"
"I came to hear what you have to say to me face-to-face," said Cindy. Jimmy was going to tell her then all of his feelings for her but he didn't know where to start, so instead he reached into his pocket and said.
"First I want to give you this, it was supposed to be your leaving present," Jimmy watched as Cindy took the small black velvet box from him. She flicked the catch up and gently opened the lid. Inside was a necklace. It was made of pure gold and moulded into the shape of a heart. Around the edges were real sparkling green emeralds inserted into the shining metal, and right in the centre was a letter C engraved.
"It's not much," lied Jimmy staring down at his feet, "I just thought it would match your eyes," Cindy just stared down and the necklace, as if mesmerised by the colours reflecting off it as it caught the light of the full moon. She didn't know what to say. She raised her head and clicked the box shut.
"This is how much I love it," she said. Then with the hand that wasn't holding the box she pulled him closer to her and kissed him passionately on the lips. She surprised Jimmy slightly but he soon relaxed into the kiss. Cindy let go of the box and it fell softly to the ground, but neither noticed or really cared. Cindy ran her fingers through Jimmy's hair. Neither wanted the kiss to end but when they finally broke away they smiled at each other.
"Can I walk you home," Jimmy asked. Cindy nodded and they linked fingers and headed in the direction of their street.
When the couple reached Cindy's house they stood in silence for a while they didn't know what to say.
"Goodnight, I guess," said Jimmy softly. He leaned towards her and gave her a goodnight kiss on the cheek. Cindy smiled.
"Goodnight Jimmy," she replied. With that Jimmy turned towards his own house next door and smiled to himself as he went through the front door.
A little way down the road a party of three spying 14 year olds by the names of Sheen, Libby and Carl also turned home with smiling faces.
Yay!!!!!!! My first fic is finished, please tell me if there's anything I can do to improve it or do better in my next fic, I love all your reviews.
