Fireworks

Chapter seven:- Did you mean it?

Sry it took me so long to get this chptr up!

"What?" Cindy sat there a little shocked that he brought the tape up so soon. Jimmy looked away then down at the roof.

"I asked if you wanted to talk about the tape." He still looked away. Cindy pulled her knees up and hugged them.

"Ummm...not really..." She said a little shaky.

"Oh..." Jimmy moved a little away from her. He felt his heart had been ripped out. He figured the 'no' ment what he feared all along. "Well I want you to know, even though you didn't, I did mean what I said in there." Cindy's head snapped up to see him still looking away.

"What are you talking about?" She asked.

"Well I kind of figured you didn't mean anything you said in there, especialy if you don't want to talk about it." He leaned back putting his weight on his hands. "I figured you just said that stuff under pressure and would want to take it all back. Cindy sighed. He still didn't look at her. She put her hand gently on his. Now his head snapped down to look at her hand on his then at her.

"Jimmy...that's not what I ment. I'm just a little uncomfotable talking about it that's all." They saw the sky light up as a firework went off. Neither of them looked toward it though. "You have to understand that talking about it brings back the shame that I don't want to remember."

"I know...the same goes for me but we can't act like it never happened." She nodded.

"I know that but..." Another firework went off in the sky. "I...it...just..." She couldn't find the words. She sighed. Within seconds his lips crashed onto hers. Cindy's eyes widened at first then gave in and kissed him back. She pulled back and looked at him. "Why'd you do that?"

"Did you mean what you said in there or not?"

"Of course I ment it! I've been in love with you for years! How could anyone not be in love with you?" Cindy's eyes softened. "You're smart..." Another firework went off. "...cute..." another firework, "...sweet..." another one "..and you care about me." He smiled knowing what she said was true. Cindy felt a single tear roll down her cheek. Jimmy wiped it away with his thumb. His hand stayed holding her face. They both smiled.

"Cindy... I love you."

"I love you too." Jimmy gently pulled her face to his and kissed her gently at first but then as she wrapped her arms around his neck and layed down on her back, the kiss increased in passion. She opened her mouth and his tongue entered her mouth. She welcomed it too. The electric shock that went down both their backs when their tongues touched was the greatest thing they'd ever felt. It was undescribable. They broke away and smiled at each other. They sat up as Jimmy draped his arm around her shoulders and pulled her close to him. They sat like that watching the rest of the fireworks and once in a while leaned over and kissed.

After the fireworks were over, they climbed off of the roof and Jimmy walked Cindy to her door.

"So I'll see you tomorrow?" Jimmy asked holding her hand just outside her door.

"Yeah..." She leaned in and kissed him one more time. "I hear the phone ringing. I better go. I'll call you tomorrow." He slowly let go of her hand and nodded. Cindy walked into her house and shut the door behind her. She lent on the door for a moment smiling. Then she went to get the phone. "Hello?"

"Hey Cindy."

"Hey Libs."

"What's going on? You sound happy and a few hours ago you sounded dead." Cindy couldn't help but continue to smile and laugh a little. "What happened on Mars that I missed?"

"I'll tell you later."

"So what happened tonight?"

"Well... I saw fireworks." Cindy laughed as Libby on the other line looked confused.

(I know cheesy ending and line but... oh well. lol. I think I have another story idea but we'll see what happens)
