Hey, I'm back with the fourth chapter. Look, I'm really sorry I haven't updated in forever, but I've been really busy writing the first three chapters of my new story Bounty (Check it out). Okay, last chapter Jimmy and Cindy broke up, because Jason made Cindy think that she had screamed for him, but he had deserted her (cruel).

Disclaimer: I do not own Jimmy Neutron or any related Characters.

A/N: I would like to dedicate this chapter to lovepotion09.

Chapter 4: I Need You

James Isaac Neutron lay slumped in his chair in the lab, drinking a can of Purple Flurp and mourning the loss of his broken heart. "How could she do this to me? As soon as I heard her I came as fast as I could, how did she think I got shot? I love her, but she doesn't love me anymore…Goddard, I need her…" He yelled out loud to the soundproof walls and his faithful dog. "I NEED HER!"

Cynthia Aurora Vortex sat hunched over on her bed, crying, as she tried to sort out the pieces that remained of her life. "What am I going to do? I don't want to need him, but I do. When I looked into his beautiful ocean-blue eyes, I wanted to hate him for not coming for me, but I can't, I can't believe the words that came out of my mouth. I don't remember him coming, but I have this feeling that he wouldn't leave me, I know he couldn't leave me. But it's hard to believe it. How could he have gotten shot, if he didn't come, but he didn't come, I was there. What am I supposed to believe? All I know is that I need you Jimmy Neutron. I NEED YOU!" She echoed him into the starry sky, hours after she had left the young man she loved, reduced to tears on the sidewalk. And ironically as they both stared into the sky, a song played on their radios.

Song: I want you to want me

I need you to need me

I'd love you to love me

I'd hate you to hate me…

They both groaned at exactly the same time at the oddly ironic lyrics as they lay their, trying to understand love.

(The next morning)

"Good morning Retroville! It's a real downpour out there, but we think it'll clear up by mid-day…" Said the radio announcer in a bright cheery voice that Jimmy hated as he woke with a start.

"Good morning, says who?" He muttered tiredly as he started towards a bathroom he had installed in the lab, when he got there he splashed some water on his face and turned on his tooth brushing machine. " I've got to do something to get Cindy back. I can't live without her." He said to himself. Hmm, he thought, I know I came to try to save her, but she says that I left her alone…what could have made her forget? I wonder if any brain damage was sustained? He ran back to his chair grabbed can of diet purple flurp on the way and hit the button to call the hospital. He had gotten a Diet because he had drank way too much soda the past couple of nights and didn't want to get really fat. He tapped his foot impatiently as a sound wave meter registered the phone ringing on the other end. C'mon pick up, he thought desperately as he stared at the huge screen monitor listening to the incessant ringing riing…riing…ring…"Hello Retroville hospital how may I help you?" Asked the same nurse that had treated himself and Cindy the day before.

(At the Candy Bar)

"Look guys, I'm really worried about Jimmy." A harassed looking Libby repeated to the two teenagers sitting across from her.

Carl nervously played with a spoon in his hands and replied "Yeah I haven't seen him all day, what happened to him?"

Sheen tilted back his head and finished off his milkshake with one long chugging motion. "Well, the last I saw of Jimmy or Cindy, they were screaming at each other outside of the hospital. Something along the lines of you didn't come for me…yes I did, no you didn't, I love you, I thought you loved me but you probably lied about that, I hate you, never want to see you again, jerk…blah blah blah. And then Cindy stormed off and Jimmy sat down in the grass crying and brokenhearted."

"WHAT! You didn't feel the need to tell us this before, why?"

"I dunno, I didn't think much of it, Ultralord was on and I had to get home."

Back at the lab, Jimmy stared at the possibility list of why Cindy could be flat out denying that he cared about her, and, after hanging up with the hospital, stared aghast at the screen, as it hit him like a gunshot.

A/N: Cliffhanger, I know, terrible. I would like to thank Ramiro for reviewing all of my chapters. Thanks! (Look for the first three chapters of Bounty I like it a lot) What did you think of this chapter? R and R c'mon.
