Chapter 1: The Chocolate Chapter

"Life is Like a Box of Chocolates, You never know what you're going to get"

For a natural-born country girl, the city was a strange place. Cindy Vortex was no exception. She wandered through the streets of New York, passing the strangest of people. She hated New York. Everywhere she turned, she saw a couple kissing, hugging, cuddling, and her memory always went back to Jimmy back in Retroville. Today was no different. She took her normal path from school to Starbucks for a mocha. As soon as she entered the familiar little coffee shop, her eyes fell on a young couple. They were about her age. The girl was about her height with straight, long, blonde hair and pale skin. The boy she was with was definitely a hottie. He had long, muscular arms, brown hair that came to perfect spikes and streaked blonde, and deep, ocean-blue eyes. Seeing them brought tears to Cindy's eyes; they reminded her so much of her and Jimmy. She took a deep breath, re-gained her composure, and ordered her mocha. She'd be with Jimmy soon enough. She was saving her money for a one-way plane ticket to Retroville. Yes, one-way, she was planning on staying. She'd only been away from Jimmy for two months, but it felt like ten years. She hated it, and she'd never let it happen again. She fished through her pockets for her money, and some loose change fell onto the floor.

"Shit," she mumbled, bending over to pick it up. As she reached for one, she felt a hand on top of hers. She followed it up to an arm and the arm up to a face. It was a guy, and he was really good looking. He had longish blonde hair that was the perfect length for spiking, but he let it hang loose over his vibrant green eyes. He was sporting baggy jeans and a double T-shirt look which went well with the golden chain around his neck. She looked at her hand on top of his and quickly pulled away.

"Sorry," she mumbled.

"No problem," he said, smiling. His teeth were white and perfectly straight. He helped her pick up the rest of her money and stood up. He looked her up and down questioningly.

"What?" Cindy asked quietly. The boy snapped from his semi-trance and looked up at her.

"Oh..n-nothing it's just...y-you look sort of familiar. Where do you go to school?"

"Oh, just around the corner, ps 112."

"No way! That's where I go too. How come I haven't seen you before?"

"Oh, I just moved her a couple months ago," she said, her voice cracking slightly. "I...I don't really like to talk about it. Sorry."

"Totally understandable. I remember being new, it was horrible. Anyway, I'd better go. My mom's expecting me home. Maybe I'll see you tomorrow?"

"Y-yeah. Tomorrow. Bye." She watched as the boy walked out the door. Then it hit her, she didn't even know his name! Wait...why did she care? She had Jimmy back at home. She wasn't staying here for long. She grabbed her mocha and headed out the door, towards her apartment.

School is never the same when you're enemy, turned best friend, tuned girlfriend moves away. It just seems like there's nobody there who really cares about you anymore. Jimmy Neutron was no exception. Being away from Cindy was no different than dieing a slow, painful death. He knew they'd be together again soon, Cindy had told him she was saving up to come back to see him. He didn't know how long that would be, but he prayed it would be soon, or he would probably kill something if not himself. He walked back from school alone today, as he did on most days, in the hot August sun. He hated starting his Junior year without Cindy. Nothing seemed to be in place anymore. He was just reaching his driveway when something caught his eye. There was a moving van and a couple cars in Cindy's old driveway. Jimmy turned around and headed over to her house, wondering what was going on. As he neared, he saw a family of 3 getting out of one of the cars. There was a mom, a dad, and a daughter, about Jimmy's age. She really was pretty. Her dark, raven hair fell wavily across her shoulders; her deep green eyes sparkled in the sun, her strawberry-pink lips curved into the perfect smile. She was definitely pretty. Jimmy neared the family cautiously. The dad turned around and saw him.

"Hello, son," he said cheerfully.

"Hi," Jimmy replied. "You guys just move in?"

"Actually, yes," the mother replied, smiling. "Do you live around here?"

"Yeah, I live in the house right across the street. My name's Jimmy Neutron."

"Jimmy Neutron...I've heard that name somewhere," the father replied.

"Well, I'm kinda towns certified genius," Jimmy replied, rubbing the back of his neck.

"Well, I'm Dan. This is my wife Sherry, and my daughter Natalie."

"Hey," Natalie said shyly.

"Cool. Well, like I said, I live right across the street. So if you need help with anything, don't hesitate to ask."

"We will, Jimmy," Sherry replied sweetly, "thank you."

Jimmy nodded and jogged back over to his house. They seemed like a nice family, and their daughter was definitely HOTT. Maybe this year wouldn't be THAT bad...Jimmy shook his head. He couldn't fall for another girl. He was in love with Cindy. He made a promise he intended to keep.

A/N: Hey guys! Well, there's chapter one. I know, it's really long, but it had to be. Just a warning, all my chapters are going to be like this. Half of Cindy and half of Jimmy, so the whole fic's not going to be that long. Anyway, hope you liked it! R&R! Much love! –mwah!-
