"The Pros And Cons of Breathing" (Different Verse)
By: Fall Out Boy
Bury me standing under your window with the cinder block in hand
Yeah cause no one will ever feel like this again
And if I could move I'm sure it would only be to crawl back to you
I must have dragged my guts a block... they were gone by the time we (talked)...
Jimmy was headed to the movie theater, determined in making his one true love listen. He arrived at the theater, out of breath. The breathlessness was not caused by the small walk there, but because of the adrenaline pumping through his body.
Jimmy turned his head as he saw Nick approach the ticket window.
"One for Superman Returns," said Nick, sliding a twenty under the little window seperatinghim from the 17 year-old-lookinggirl. He winked at her and exclaimed, "Keep the change, babe."
Jimmy followed him into the theater, stopping as he nodded toward someone behind the corner...
It was Chelsea, the new girl from Michigan, she was walking along with Brittney. Nick stopped, flipping his hair back and winking at her. "Sup, babe?"
Chelsea blushed, noticeably pushing her cleavage up. "Hey." She wiggled her fingers at Nick and stepped closer.
Jimmy held his breath as Nick kissed her, pushing his tongue into her waiting mouth. Nick was audibly groaning into her mouth, putting his hand dangerously close to her butt.
This continued for a while and when they finally seperated, Nick was breathing hard, as opposed to Chelsea, who seemed to do nothing during the hot-'n'-heavy make-out session.
Nick let out a growl and winked again at Chelsea. "See you later at my house, babe."
Jimmy couldn't see anymore, his rage was controlling only his primitive impulses. With a final breath, he charged forward, not even registering the look of surprise on Nick's face. Jimmy collided heavily, noticing no pain as he hit the ground.
He began pounding his fists into Nick's "hot" face, the perfect face by everyone's standards. Part of the anger boiling in Jimmy was from the fact that Nick had the nerve to cheat on Cindy when he knew she was going to be there soon. The other part of the anger was from the fact that Nick was so perfect, so handsome. It made Jimmy mad that he was considered a freak. It was as if no one had any respect for intellect now, just looks. Just shallow people left in this world...
Cindy walked into the lobby to see Jimmy bashing in Nick's face. She ran forward, throwing her purse to the side and prying them apart.
"What are you doing, Neutron?" she screamed, tears flowing freely onto the bloodied carpet.
Jimmy continued relentlessly pounding Nick, not hearing, unfazed by Cindy's screams.
Nick began moving his arms now, catching Jimmy in the side of his head. Jimmy crashed sideways onto the carpet and then he hurriedly pushed himself up. Anger pouring out of his blue eyes, Jimmy brought his fist forth, pushing with all his might against the air, the drag of the friction. And bam. It hit Nick square on his nose, more blood spurting out of his mouth and nostrils.
Cindy looked at Jimmy, unable to believe that this was Jimmy. Her neighbor Jimmy. The geeky Jimmy. The one who barely was able to lift a box of clothes.
"What... What the hell was that?" she asked shakedly. Nick was groaning, holding his mouth and nose.
Jimmy took a breath, rubbing his bruised and bloody hand on his jeans. "He... He cheated on you."
"What?" hissed Cindy. She looked at Nick, then at Jimmy. "There's no way, Neutron."
"He cheated on you, Cindy! There's no way? What the hell are you thinking? Nick Dean is a player. He plays girls and he throws them away! You were the flavor of the month, but now it's some other girl's turn. Don't you get it?"
Jimmy looked at Cindy with a pained expression and rose to his feet, his eyes never straying from her face.
"Don't you get it?" he repeated. "He doesn't like you! He doesn't like anyone he dates! Haven't you learned from all those rumors about him? About how he practically had sex with some high school girl? They're true, Cindy! And I can't stand it anymore! He doesn't deserve you! You don't deserve an asshole like him, either! And although I hate to say it, I don't deserve you either, no matter how much I like you, no matter how much I convince myself I'm in love with you!"
Cindy looked at Jimmy, staring, really, and let out a sigh. Not a sad sigh, but an angry one.
"You really are..." She stood up, holding onto Nick's hand. "The biggest jerk..." She pulled Nick up, holding a hankie out to him. "I've ever had the displeasure to meet..." She pushed the hankie onto Nick's nose. "And I hope I never see you again."
She left the movie theater, towing Nick behind her. Jimmy stood, his eyes showing tears, tears trying desperately to escape onto his cheeks.
