'She turned up her nose as she walked by my Cadillac'
The now 16-year-old Jimmy stood in his driveway on the driver's side of his brand new car, that he actually built from scratch all by himself, as he waited to see what Betty's reaction would be to his newest prized possession/invention. As she walked around the car she turned her nose upward in an extremely snobbish way.
'From the corner of my eye I saw you and you laughed'
'You were sittin' on the swing on your front porch'
'Paintin' your nails like you were bored'
When he heard someone laugh he looked across the street from the corner of his eye and noticed Cindy sitting on the swing on her front porch painting her nails, looking as if she were extremely bored.
'And you yelled "She was sure impressed with you"'
When Cindy noticed that Jimmy was looking over at her she hollered over to him sarcastically, "She sure is impressed with you!" and laughed.
(Chorus)
'Well I ain't first class'
'But I ain't white trash'
'I'm wild and a little crazy too'
'Some girls don't like boys like me'
'Aw, but some girls do'
Jimmy only smiled at her suddenly having an idea. He didn't even notice that Betty had walked away as soon as Cindy had begun talking to him. He then looked over at where Betty once was...
'I yelled and asked if you would like a ride'
Suddenly realizing that Betty had walked away. He looked over at Cindy his grin growing wider as he yelled over to her, "Would you like to go for a ride?"
"In that contraption? Please. I would rather be in a tank full of sharks. It would, of course, be much safer than any of your inventions."
He laughed wholeheartedly, "Come on."
She rolled her eyes as she stood up from her seat on the porch swing and walked across the street, standing on the passenger side she took a moment to make one more comment. "If anything goes wrong you know where you'll end up, right?"
He rolled his eyes again and gave her a smile. "Six feet under. Yeah, I know. You keep saying that, but still have yet to do anything of the such."
"That's only because I've got a soft spot for you. I pity you and your little attempts at 'The Best Invention Ever'. Come on, you know that."
"Or maybe you have other motives." He said, wagging his eyebrows at her before getting into the car.
"Such as...?" She said with a sneer after sitting in the passenger seat and closing the door.
"You like me." He said with a smirk.
She only gave him a perturbed look and said, "Grow up."
When we pulled out of your yard I bal'd a tire,'
'You was laughing at me, I was doing James Dean.'
'You was the prettiest girl I'd ever seen,'
'When you rolled your eyes and twirled my pink fur dice.'
As he backed out of his driveway he bal'd a tire. Cindy laughed at him as he blushed embarrassingly. To make up for it, he tried to do an impression of James Dean. He looked at her out of the corner of his eye as he thought about how pretty she is. She rolled her eyes at his best attempt of an impression as she brought her hand up and twirled the pink-fur dice hanging from his rear-view mirror.
(Repeat Chorus)
'Well good ole' boys don't get no breaks'
'And rich boys think they got what it takes'
Memories of everything they had been through together throughout the years suddenly filled Jimmy's mind:

(Flashbacks End)
'But there's someone for each of us they say'
Jimmy still paying very close attention to the road before him while reminiscing took a moment to look over at Cindy again. She looked back at him, "Well, looks like you got a winner with this one." She stated referring to his latest invention.
He smiled at her quickly and she returned the favor before he turned his eyes back to the road. "Yep. Looks like I have," He says referring to both his invention and Cindy, while still smiling.
He looks at her one more time out of the corner of his eye before thinking, 'Some say there's someone for each of us . . . I think I found the one for me when I was 10 years old. I've just been waiting too long to really do anything about it. Now I have that chance and I'm not going to pass it up or take back something I've done or said this time around.'
Author's End Note:
Wow. I was not expecting to get this one done. I started writing this one over the summer. I hadn't touched it since then! Whoa. Today, I was avoiding some homework cause I wanted to write and was bored enough to finish a fanfic for a fandom that I am not completely obsessed over any more. Weird, huh? Well, hope you like. I'm currently also working on a Hey Arnold! Parody Series that I should have up sometime in the next few weeks. So if any of you are HA! Fans be looking for it.
And just for the record, I also have no idea what "bal'd a tire" even means...
Now R&R and remember – if you read it, don't blame me for you reading the spoilers that were included. I warned you. So, I am not at fault here.
Later days! - Jennifer (a.k.a.: Just Another Girl 19 and neutronvortex05)
