The next day at school,Jimmy,Carl and Sheen were standing in front of Jimmy's locker.

Carl: So Sheen, did you ask Libby yet?

Sheen:Yup,I gave her a note asking if she would like to go and I told her to leave an answering note in my locker.

Jimmy:But you dont have a locker!

Sheen:Which is why I am standing in front of yours,I told her to put it in yours since its the only locker that cant be broken into. I dont want anyone to find out.

Jimmy sighs and lets the scanner scan his eye to verify that its Jimmy.On top of all his books and gadgets was a small neatly-folded note.Sheen grabbed it and read it.He started to look at the ground and dropped the note.

Jimmy: I'm sorry Sheen...but..

Sheen:SHE ACCEPTED YAHOO!!!!!

Jimmy+Carl:Congratulations Sheen!

As Sheen continued rejoicing,Carl asked Jimmy if he was going to ask Cindy or not.

Jimmy was about to answer when Betty Quinlan cut him off.

Betty: Hi Jimmy

Jimmy(dreamily): Hi Betty..

Betty: Listen Jimmy,there's a dance tonight and I dont have a date.Would you like to go with me?

Jimmy:SURE...I mean ya..uh...(he turned to his locker and caught a glimpse of a tiny picture of Cindy sticking out from beneath his inventions).Sorry Betty, I was planning to ask someone else.

Betty(shocked):Um.. okay Jimmy..uh..see you later.

Jimmy(to himself):I hope I dont regret this...

Not so far away,Cindy and Libby were talking to each other.

Libby: Sheen asked me if I would go to the dance with him and I accepted!

Cindy:Libby!!! Sheen's almost as bad as Neutron.

Libby:But he's CUTE!!..in a cooless,hyperactive kinda way.(from love potion episode when they were talking in the candy bar).What about you, arent you gonna ask Jimmy?

Cindy(dreamily): Yeah...he is so...WHAT?I mean no way Libby! Whatever gave you that idea?

Libby:that photo of him in your locker!

Cindy quickly closed her locker.

Cindy:Okay Libby,I admit I have a crush on Neutron but you have to promise you'll never tell anyone okay?

Libby: Yeah but..

Cindy:..or else i'll tell everyone about you and Sheen!

Libby:Okay,okay sheesh...

Cindy: Good and...(she was cut short as Nick approached her)

Nick: Hey Cindy,wassup?

Cindy:Um..Nick..uh...hi..um...nothing..

Nick: Wanna go to the dance with me?

Cindy:Oh yes!...I mean..um..uh...look..I'm sorry Nick but I'm going with someone else.

Nick(shrugged):Your loss (and he walked away).

Libby: Wow,you must have some crush to turn down Nick Dean.

Cindy:Yeah..I mean no..I mean..oh forget it and lets go to the cafeteria.I'm starved!

Jimmy,Carl and Sheen were also in the cafeteria sitting in a table not far from where Cindy was.Cindy was sitting with Libby,Britney and all the other popular girls.Cindy was picking at her food wondering if she had made the right decision to turn down Nick.She stopped as she could feel a tingle as if someone was spying on her.She turned around to see Jimmy's ocean blue eyes staring right at her.Jimmy smiled and she smiled back.They stared at each other for a while but then Cindy blushed and turned around;so did Jimmy.

Jimmy:Guys...its time.

Carl:We know its lunchtime Jimmy, but thanks for reminding us.

Jimmy:No,I mean its time I ask Cindy!!

Carl: Ohh..

Jimmy walked over to Cindy's table.

Britney:So I said,"Like those shoes and those jeans are a big fashion no-no",then all the girls except Cindy were giggling and laughing.

Jimmy:Uhh..hi Cindy.

Cindy(happily):Hi Jimmy!

Jimmy:Umm..I was wondering if you would like to go to the dance with me tonight?

Cindy:Sure! (Her friends gasped) I mean uhh..no way Nerdtron I'd rather go with an action figure.(it hurt her to say that)

Jimmy(sadly):Umm..okay..

But before he left she put her hand below the table's edge so the girls couldnt see and gave Jimmy a note.He took it and went back to his table.He opened it under the table and read it.It wrote:

Dear Jimmy,

I apologize for anything I said or will say to you today,but I have a reputation to keep;I'm sure you'll understand.But just in case you were wondering,Yes I would love to go to the dance with you.

Love,Cindy

He looked up to her table and caught her staring at him,he smiled at her and she smiled back.

Carl:So what did she say Jimmy?

Jimmy(dreamily): Yes..

Carl+Sheen:Congratulations Jimmy.

Jimmy: Thanks you guys!!

At the end of the day,the three boys were walking towards Retroville Mall.

Sheen:oh yeah!!!....were gonna check out the new ultralord action figure right?

Jimmy: No Sheen,were going to the jewellery store in the mall.I ordered a bracelet for Cindy and I want to give it to her.

Sheen:Ohhh.....DARN IT!!!

About half a block behind them,Cindy and Libby were also walking towards Retroville Mall.

Cindy:I have to pick up my dress; I want to look perfect for Jimmy tonight!

Libby: You really do like this guy!!

As jimmy was walking he heard a loud thud and a scream from behind him.He recognized that scream.It was Cindy's.

The three boys turned around to find....

What caused the loud thud? Why did Cindy scream? What will Jimmy find when he turns around? Tune in next time for part 5 of Dark Revenge!
