Chapter 2
Nov. 22 4:00pm
Jimmy arrived home from college at about 3:00pm. He knew Cindy and Libby had been home for a day already, and he went downstairs and talked with his parents about college, waiting for Cindy to arrive.
She did about an hour later. She knocked on the door, and when Jimmy answered it, he immediately swooped her into his arms and kissed her gently. She giggled as he set her back down.
I've missed you. she murmured as he held her tightly. Jimmy kissed the top of her head, rubbing her back.
I missed you to. It isn't the same without you. I love you so much. Jimmy's voice was full of sincerity. Cindy's eyes filled with tears as he said it.
I love you too. she said. She smiled as an idea came to her. Come over tonight. she told him. Jimmy raised an eyebrow at her implication. She merely continued to smile at him. I'm sorry, but I need to go. My mom is insisting that i spend at least a few days with her. I'll see you later? Jimmy nodded. Cindy kissed him once more and left.

8:00, same day.
Jimmy arrived at Cindy's and noticed that her parents cars were gone. When Cindy answered the door, she told him that they had gone out for the evening. They had the house to themselves. They spent the night together, more magical then the last time they were in each other's arms.
Jimmy awoke at 5am, knowing he'd have to leave and get home. He shook Cindy, who groaned and rolled over, mumbling something about wanting more sleep. Jimmy shook her slightly harder and she sat up.
What is it, Jimmy? she asked. He explained that he had to go home and she nodded, agreeing with him. She put on a robe as he dressed and went with him to the door. He kissed her and promised to see her later.

Dec. 20
Cindy was home again for Christmas. She had spent her time over the last day with Libby. She had been trying to avoid Jimmy. She had a secret that she wasn't sure how to tell her fiance'.
Libby and Cindy decided to go over to Jimmy's that night. The boys would be there, too, so they would others around eventually. They planned to go a bit early. Cindy wanted to get her problem off her chest before they had an audience.
At 6:00pm, Cindy and Libby showed up on Jimmy's doorstep. It was raining torrents, which meant they were dressed in heavy raincoats. Jimmy answered the door, a bit surprised that the girls were so early. Cindy rushed right past him into the house. Libby walked in and took off her coat, but Cindy didn't.
Jimmy, we need to talk. Cindy said. Jimmy nodded at her numbly.
What did you want to talk about, Cin? He asked, obviously curious. Cindy took a deep breath.
Do you remember that night before you left for college, Jimmy? she whispered.
How can I forget? Why do you ask sweetheart?
Cindy said nothing, but dropped her coat off her shoulders. There was a distinct curve to her belly. Jimmy stared at her. Silent tears were falling down her cheeks. Seeing this, Jimmy ran to her an held her close.
he said, still at a loss for words. Cindy started to sob.
Jimmy, what do we do? We're too young to be parents. she said, her voice choked with tears. Jimmy rubbed her back soothingly.
Shhh.....It's ok. We'll get through this. I promise you, we will. I love you. This baby is part of both of us. I'm not leaving you because of this. he told her. She calmed down a bit, her sobs reduced to sniffles. Cindy, i don't want to wait till we're done with school. I want to get married soon. I've been thinking about switching schools, and I've decided it's a good idea.
Are you sure that's wise, Jimmy? I mean, I don't want to jeopardize your future because of me..... Cindy trailed off. Jimmy shook his head at her.
It'll be fine. I don't want to spend so much time away from you anymore. How far along are you?
About four months. she told him. Jimmy smiled.
Can we tell everyone the good news? How about our parents? Do yours know? he sounded so happy.
They know about the baby, and they aren't very happy about being pregnant out of wedlock. But they will be happy when we are married. Cindy looked like she wanted to say something else, Jimmy's eyes implored her to go on. Jimmy, I want to elope. Weddings are overrated, and i don't want it to be big and extravagant. Just our close friends. Would that be okay?
Of course. Anything you want.
I'm not sure I'll continue. I'm not getting any reviews, really, so i'm not sure it's worth it. If you want more, R&R. I fi get at least 5 more reviews(from different people mind you) i'll continue the story.
