A love of dancing

Chapter three- A Quick Kiss

(I keep mentioning the gym teacher, I don't know his name but if you saw the one where jimmy had super fast shoes, that's the gym teacher i'm talking about)

Just then everyone clapped and Jimmy snapped his head up. Not even realizing it, he let go and Cindy dropped to the floor. Jimmy ignored her and bowed. He was getting a little big headed when he realized he could dance and forgot about Cindy on the gym stage.

Cindy rubbed her head and glared at him. But as she watched him take his bows she couldn't help but smile and laugh a little. She stood up and took his hand. She bowed along with him.

Jimmy smiled as he turned toward Cindy and looked into her eyes. Just then he felt her bring his hand up and spin him so fast that he spun twice and fell on the floor. He heard everyone laughing then shook his dizzieness off and looked at Cindy with her hands on her hips and an 'i beat you' look on her face. He got up and went to the opposite side of the stage as Cindy and walked down.

"Alright! That was pretty good but I bet all of you little whimps could do so much better! Now dance!" The gym teacher yelled.

Jimmy and Cindy were on opposite sides of the gym. Neither of them were sure about what just happend. Cindy was leaning aganist the wall on her side with her arms crossed. Jimmy was on the other side facing her also with his arms crossed. His head was tilted a little and he seemed to be studying her. Wow... He thought She is something...

"Jimmy..." The gym teacher said in a surprisingly soft tone. "Just go over there and dance with her."

"Yeah but what if she doesn't feel the same way? I mean what if she says no and hits me?"

"What if she says yes?" The gym teacher said. Jimmy got off the wall and walked through the people toward Cindy. "Oh kids. They'll fall for anything." He said laughing "Hey you two dance faster!"

Cindy was sighing and turned and saw Jimmy walking up to her. She sighed one more time. "What do you want Nerdtron?"

"Well we are still being graded and to pass, we need to dance...with each other." Jimmy held out his hand in front of her. "Well? What do you say?"

Cindy felt all warm and tingly inside when she shook her head and took his hand. She couldn't tell if she was blushing oe not because she felt so warm inside. She knew she liked Jimmy but she had never had this feeling before. She'd touched his hand before while dancing but this time was different. His hand was soft and soothing. Even though he squeezed her hand a little it seemed more like a sign of affection rather than hate. Cindy looked up at him couldn't help but smile and by now she knew she was blushing.

They got into position and started spinning slowlly. Jimmy's eyes foucused in on only Cindy. All of a sudden everything turned white and all he could see was her. The same thing happened to Cindy. She slowly moved her hand that was over his shoulder down his back. Her other hand seemed to travel up his arm and around his neck to meet her other arm. Jimmy felt his own hands slide around her waist.

They stopped spinning and just stood there until they heard whispering and laughing. He fell out of his gaze and looked around. Thankfully for him, the bell rang and before he could say anything to Cindy or cover up with an insult, she was gone.

In the girl's room Libby and Cindy were washing their hands. Cindy wasn't even looking at Libby but could feel her eyes staring at her. Cindy quickly dried her hands and tried to leave.

"Don't be leavin' so fast girl. You got some explaing to do!"

"About what?" Cindy said playing dumb

"About what? Oh I don't know maybe about how you like Jimmy." Libby said with her hands on her hips.

"What do you mean? I don't like Jimmy. He's a dork!"

"Girl...I know you better than that. I can tell you like him. I mean come on what's not to like about him...He's smart and sorda cute and he's very charming..." Libby said smiling. "If you don't like him then maybe I'll go for him."

"Look! If you even start flirting with him, I'll start doing Tai Chi on you!" Realizing what she just said her eyes went wide and she covered her mouth. Libby smiled in her own trickiness.

"Girl. You gotta tell me everything." Libby said laughing and taking her friends arm.

After school Jimmy was walking home when he saw Cindy on the other side of the street. She must have missed the bus too. He was tempted to slow down then walk up behind her but just couldn't. He didn't even know if he could even form a sentence around her anymore. Now every time he was around her he got sweaty and nervous. He took a quick glance over to where she should be but she wasn't there anymore.

"Hey Jimmy." Cindy said sneaking up behind him "Can I talk to you?"

"Uhh...well..sure." He said. He planned on talking to her right there but she quickly grabbed his arm and pulled him over to the side into some bushes. "So...What was with that?"

"I didn't really want to talk to you. I just wanted to do this." Cindy grabbed his shirt and pulled him dangerously close to her face. Jimmy's heart started racing and he couldn't wait another minute.

He was the one that pushed his lips so gentily to hers. He felt a bolt of electricity fly from her lips to his and down his spine. Within two seconds Cindy let go of his shirt and left.

Jimmy closed his eyes and just took a big breath in.
