Jimmy(turning around): Cindy? Where are you?
He found Cindy about twelve feet away staring at something.Jimmy ran over to her.
Jimmy(concerned): Cindy,what's wrong?
Cindy: Nothing....look...(she pointed at the earth).
There was a magnificent view of earth.A giant ball of blue,green and white.
Cindy:It's so..so beautiful...
Jimmy(dazed):..yeah...i've been out in space countless times and yet, i've never taken the time to actually look at it...
They both sat down next to each other, completely mesmerised by the breath-taking view. Although Jimmy was staring at the earth, his mind wasn't completely focused on it. Inside his head, he thought about how happy he was to hug Cindy.But then he remembered that when he hugged her,she hugged him back.He blushed as he thought about it.He turned to Cindy to apologize to her about the hug.
Jimmy: Cindy,I just wanted to...
He stopped when he saw her shivering and rubbing her arms on herself;little puffs of smoke escaping her mouth and nostrils.
Cindy:Y-y-yesss....J-J-Jimmmyyy??
Jimmy: here..
He took off his spacesuit jacket and put it around her shoulders.Cindy looked at him and smiled weakly.She was too cold to give a full smile.
Jimmy( Blushing): Um...Cindy?
Cindy(shivering less): Yeah?
Jimmy: I know this isn't the best time, and we both already know the answer to this question but...
Cindy: Go on...
Jimmy: Although you said 'yes' in the note that you gave me, I wanted to ask you in person....Cindy,will you grant me the honour of going to the school dance with me?
Cindy(Giggling because they both already know the answer): Of course i'll go to dance with you Jimmy!
Jimmy(Happily): Great!!
After a moment of silence,Jimmy spoke.
Jimmy: Our ride will be here in about one hour or less.
Cindy: That's good news, we might catch pneumonia up here!
They both laughed at her remark.After a while,Jimmy pretended to yawn and stretch then he slowly placed his arm around her shoulder.She didn't seem to mind.In fact, she nudged closer to Jimmy and placed her head on his shoulder.His eyes widened for a while with surprise but it turned to happiness.He relaxed a little and when they both got comfortable, they continued to watch the earth;both of them very happy to be together.
As the planet earth shines brightly in the clear night sky, two figures share a comfortable silence, contemplating their future. So very different at first glance, yet so very much alike, each wondering for the first time if they are seeing a kindred spirit in the other, something more than a friend,
and both wondering if it's worth it to find out....
Are they going to find out? Are they going to reach the dance in time? Are these questions really necessary? Find out in chapter 15 of Dark Revenge
