A/N: I do not own Jimmy Neutron!
Chapter 3: Turning up the heat
(Candy Bar)
Jimmy was sitting at the table, pondering what has happened in the past hour. 'Ok, my long time crush has a new boyfriend, I got In a fight with him right in front of her, she hates me for doing that, and now I'm waiting for Libby. I knew this was going to be one of those days!' Jimmy thought to himself. If only he knew how much worse this day was going to get. After the fight in the lab, he called up Libby and asked her to meet him at the Candy Bar. She agreed, and now she is ten minutes late! Just as he was about to leave to go look for her, she walked in and came to the table. "Hey Jimmy! Sorry I'm late, but Sheen wouldn't let me go anywhere without him, so I had to lose him." Libby explained. "No problem, listen, can you keep a secret?" Jimmy asked. "Depends, what's the secret?" Libby curiously asked. "Well… I need your help. Cindy has this new boyfriend named Matt, and I need you to help me find out who this guy really is!" Jimmy said. Libby looked at Jimmy for a moment with a knowing smile and then said, "Would you want to know about this guy just because he is seeing Cindy?" "NO! I'm just concerned for her own well being!" Jimmy quickly said. "So you do care what happens to Cindy?" Libby asked, still smiling. "YES! I MEAN NO….I MEAN….IT'S COMPLICATED!" Jimmy managed to stammer. "Jimmy, you can drop the act, this is me who you are talking to, I know about you and Cindy, and so does half the town!" Libby said. Jimmy just stared for a moment before sighing in defeat. "So, will you help me?" Jimmy asked. Libby sat there for a moment before saying, "Sure, but on one condition! Either way, if we find something on this guy or not, you have to confess to Cindy, Ok?" Jimmy thought for a moment before saying, 'Ok!" With that, they decided that Cindy would most likely be in the park, so they headed there.
(The Park)
Cindy and Matt are sitting in the park bench, talking about what their next move is. "Ok, now that we have his attention, it's time to bring out the heavy stuff!" Matt said. "What is the 'heavy stuff' anyway?" Cindy asked. Matt turned to her and said, "Next time he sees us together, we need to hold hands! That will send him through the roof! If that doesn't start something, then I'll have to execute my final plan, but hopefully, it won't come to that!" Cindy thought about Matt's plan for a moment and then said, "Ok!" They chatted for a bit before Cindy noticed Jimmy and Libby walking into the park. Cindy nudged matt and pointed to them. Matt turned and smiled when he saw who it was. Matt nodded as they approached and pretended to not notice them until they walked up. "Hey Cindy! Who is this?" Libby asked, even though she had a good idea from the killer glare Jimmy was giving him. "This is Matt, my boyfriend!" Cindy explained. The two girls looked at the guys and noticed the tension between them. "So, you must be Libby! Cindy told me so much about you!" Matt said without taking his eyes off of Jimmy. They all remained quiet for a moment before Libby spoke. "Hey Cindy, can I talk to you for a seconded?" "Sure!" Cindy said, and made sure to grab and squeeze matt's hand where Jimmy could see it. "Be back in a sec!" "Ok!" Matt said, squeezing her hand back where hand back where jimmy could see it. Jimmy, if it was possible, looked more ticked off. As Cindy and Libby walked out of sight, the distinct sound of fighting could be heard in the background. Libby turned to Cindy and asked, "Ok, who is this Matt, and what is going on?" Cindy looked nervous for a minute before deciding to confess to Libby. "Ok! Matt is not my boyfriend, he is my cousin, and he is helping me to get Jimmy jealous so that Jimmy and me can get together!" Cindy explained. Libby looked over at jimmy and Matt just as Matt gave Jimmy a round house kick to the face, (A/N: I watch 'Walker, Texas Ranger' a lot!) and Jimmy grabbed some sand and threw it in Matt's eyes and tackled him to the ground. "Well, looks like it is working fine!" Libby admitted, "And Matt doesn't mind getting in these fights with Jimmy?" "No. He says it is good exercise!" Cindy said. "Ok, I'll keep my mouth shut on this, but you better get together with Jimmy quick, or they are going to kill each other!' Libby warned, and in the background, Jimmy is being thrown through the air after he hit Matt with a tree branch. Just as Matt was about to kick Jimmy in the stomach, Cindy called out, "Ok Matt, lets go!" Matt, with a disappointed look on his face, walked over to Cindy and walked down the road to her. Libby helped Jimmy up and Jimmy growled under his breath, "Oh ya! Well I'll find someone better then Cindy!" With that, he walked out of the park. Libby just stood there and thought, 'This is going to be one of those days!' With that, she walked out of the park to look for Sheen and Carl so they could help.
