A/n: OMG thnks for replyin everyone! I didn't know you'd like it that much! LoL. Well, I hope you like this next chappie!
~Cindy's POV~
Jimmy and I walked home from school to his house. We walked in the front door only to be greeted by that little metallic canine of Jimmy's- Goddard. He was a playful little pup- jumping, barking, and sniffing.
"Hey boy!" greeted Jimmy as he laughed with excitement.
Goddard came over to me and sniffed my shoe and I laughed. A green screen popped out of Goddard's chest, which read: Cindy Vortex?
"Ya, Goddard. What's the big deal?" Jimmy asked.
Once again the screen: Oh…hehehe
"Goddard," Jimmy warned, "If you want to ever eat lug nuts again, you better lay off…"
Goddard whimpered at this comment and Jimmy patted his head to show Goddard he didn't mean harm by it. Goddard's screen popped out once more: I'll just leave you two alone…
"Goddard!" Jimmy yelled and blushed as Goddard walked away with a doggie laugh.
"Please excuse my dog." Jimmy apologized.
"No problem." I replied and laughed as we walked into the kitchen.
"Oh Jimmy, you're home. How was…oh, hello Cindy!" Judy said in her usual peppy tone and holding a tray of cookies.
"Hello, Mrs. Neutron. How are you?" I asked politely.
"Just fine, dear." Judy replied and smiled. "Are you two doing a project for school?"
"No, mom. Cindy's just coming over to hang out." Jimmy stated.
"That's very nice. I almost forgot my manners! Would you two like some cookies?" Judy asked.
"Sure." Jimmy and I replied in unison as we grabbed cookies off the tray.
"Thanks Mrs. Neutron." I replied.
"You're most certainly welcome. Have fun, you two. And Jimmy?" Judy started.
"Yeah, mom?"
"Be a good boy!" She replied with a chuckle.
"Mom!" Jimmy laughed.
Jimmy's mother waved as we walked out the back door to the lab entrance.
"I hope you don't mind free fall." Jimmy stated with a smirk.
"Why?" I asked.
Instead of replying, Jimmy put his hair in front of the scanner and then saluted. And then…
We dropped.
I hadn't been in his lab for so long, I forgot that the welcome mat dropped into the lab. We fell for about three seconds and then a hard thump on the ground, although it was not my thump because I seemed to land without a scratch. I opened my eyes and looked down, realizing I had fallen into Jimmy's lap. I turned around to look at him, and he just smirked at me.
"Moving a little too fast?" He asked jokingly.
"Haha, very funny." I replied with a slight more pink in my skin than normal.
I got off of him and pulled him up, although he was more like an anchor than a catch, since he was so much larger and heavier than me. Yes, I was surprised he actually grew up some.
So then he walked over to his computer and pressed a few buttons. Then, a television, a couch, a table, and some drinks popped up and he gestured over to the area. I smiled and walked over to sit on the couch and drink some Purple Flurp with him.
"Ya know what this reminds me of?" I reminisced talking more to myself than to him.
"What?" He asked snapping me out of my memory.
"My perfect Valentine." I smiled and looked over at him.
"Oh yeah." He replied scratching that back of his neck. "The good ol' days. That was a riot. I remember feeling head over heels like that for you when Carl released that potion."
"Yeah. Good times, good times. I remember you stalking me everywhere saying, 'I love you!' and crazy things like that."
"But those words really aren't that crazy."
"What do you mean?"
"A lot of people say that and mean it. So they can be crazy or not, depending on the situation."
"I guess so." I replied wondering what he was getting at.
"And at that time, I really did love you, even if it was from a potion." He stated and smiled.
"Really? That's the cutest thing you've ever said to me!" I said with a laugh.
"Gee, thanks." Jimmy answered sarcastically with a blush.
We just laughed for a few seconds and he looked into my eyes. Every time he did that, it melted my heart. It just killed me inside to see him look at me so sincerely and I just wanted to have him forever. I wondered if he actually knew he did this to me. Sometimes I wish he did so he could know that I love him the way I do. I pulled myself closer to him so that I could look deeper into his sapphire eyes and he could look into mine. How I love to torture this boy with my stare just like he does to me. I shut my eyes and moved my head closer to him and could hear him breathing.
"YO, JIMMY!" The voice rang throughout the lab all of the sudden and Jimmy pulled back.
"Damn it." Jimmy cursed barely audible.
"I'm back from the movies! What's kickin homie?" Sheen asked as he entered the main part of the lab.
"Well, nothing now!" Jimmy replied sarcastically.
"Or should I ask what was going on?" Sheen asked with a smirk.
"Nothing!" Jimmy replied quickly and stood up. "Where's Libby?"
"Nice subject change. I took her home after the movies, but we left early because it sucked." Sheen replied.
"I see. And what are you doing today besides hanging around here?" Jimmy asked with a slight gesture towards me.
"Well,"
Sheen thought about this for a second as we heard a song start playing. Realizing it was my cell phone, I blushed a little. Both boys looked at me as I apologized and pulled it out of my pocket to answer.
"Hello?"
"Cynthia Vortex, where are you? I was scared to pieces when you didn't come home!"
"Oh, sorry mom, I guess I forgot to call you after school." Cindy replied.
"You sure did. Where are you and when will you be home? Your father and I are going to marriage counseling tonight, and you need to be here to watch the dog so it doesn't go on my floors." Cindy's mother explained.
"I'm at my friend from school's house. I'll come home right now, bye." I finished and hung up.
What a thing to ruin a relationship. Marriage counseling. It also ruins my hoping-to- be relationship, too, because I have to leave from Jimmy's just to watch my dog just because of it. Oh well, one day we'll be back together, one day. How dramatic I am.
"Jimmy, I have to leave. Call me later." I smiled and started walking away.
"Bye, Cindy. Talk to you later." The last thing I heard from Jimmy as I exited the lab.
As I was walking home, I thought about what had almost happened between Jimmy and me. Another kiss, if Sheen would have been held back a little longer. Our day will come, hopefully soon, when I can finally let all these feelings come out.
Chapter 2, whoo hoo! Did you like this one as well? I hope you are still enjoying this story, because I enjoy it as much as you do and please R&R sum more again! Shanks, much 3, NeutronGrl15.
