Chapter 5
Keeping it inside….welcome to Neptune
Jimmy yawned as he put the rocket on auto pilot. He turned to the back seat to see Cindy reading a book she brought. "Hey." He said, quietly, propping his head on his hand. She glanced at him and smiled. "Hey." She said, turning her attention back to the novel. He tilted his head to the side and lifted an eyebrow. "What cha readin?" He asked, leaning over the back of the seat, trying to see the cover. "Oh, it's a book my grandmother gave me about a year before she passed away. I'm just starting to read it." She said, looking up at him, holding her page with her thumb. "Oh really?" He asked, "What book?" "Keeping It Inside." She said simply.
"Oh, so, what page are you on?"
"134, there's 741 pages though." She said, opening the book again. Jimmy nodded. "Sounds interesting." He said, looking around. A small silent moment feel between the two. I was actually kind of peaceful…
"So what's the book about?"
Jimmy asked loudly, knowing it would annoy her. And boy was he right. She gritted her teeth and gave him a look that could kill. Jimmy held his arms out in defense. "Ok, ok, sorry I asked." He said, turning to face forward in his seat. He sighed and looked down at his watch. His eyes widened. It was 1:00am! It normally didn't take that long to get from Earth to a different planet, but they were going to Pluto. (A/N: the farthest planet from the Earth) So of course that would take more time since they have only been to planets really close to Earth.
While getting lost in his thoughts, Jimmy could hear Cindy yawn. He smiled and turned around again. "You tired?" He asked sweetly. Cindy nodded. "Aren't you just full of questions this hour." She teased, reaching up to ruffle his hair. He chuckled and smoothed his brown locks back to their original form. "I guess. Do you wanna stop for the night?" He said, asking yet another question. "Where? We're in the middle of deep space, and Pluto is still a few 100 miles away." Cindy said, putting her bookmark in her place. (A/N: lets say while they were traveling, Jimmy gave Cindy all the details.) "Yeah, I know, but we're both extremely tired, we've been traveling for 6 hours and the rocket needs to rebut. Sides, Neptune is only a few miles away, we can rest there and leave for Pluto in the morning." Jimmy explained. Cindy yawned again. "Alright. Pluto is right next to Neptune anyway." She, said, placing her book in her backpack. Jimmy nodded and turned the auto pilot off. "We should be there within the hour." Jimmy said, taking the controls.
After an hour of 'flying', Jimmy gently landed the rocket and turned it off.
"Hey Cin, were here."
He turned to see a sleeping Cindy, her backpack clenched to her chest. Jimmy smiled and shook his head. He lightly taped her on the shoulder, she didn't move. He rolled his eyes and climbed into the back seat. "Princess Cindy," He whispered in her ear, "We have landed at your castle, don't you want to do the honor of meeting your prince?" Cindy's eyes fluttered open; she gave him a small smile. "Of course, but you know what?" She whispered back, leaning close to his face. "A royal kiss from the prince would make the princess delighted." She said, still in a whispered. Jimmy smiled, leaning in as well. Now their faces were centimeters apart. "And you know what else would be delightful?" She whispered, her lips basically touching his when she talked. "What?" Cindy closed her eyes, about to kiss him, but bonked him on the head with her backpack. "It would be delightful if you stopped using such cheesy sayings to wake me up!" She said, yelling. (In a funny and nice way)
Jimmy rubbed his head, still stunned at what happened. He thought he had a one way ticket to a long, romantic kiss. "I'm trying to be nice!" He said back, hopping out of the rocket, then offering a hand to help her down. "Well you could use a better way, instead of the old 'you're my princess' thing everyone else uses." She said, taking his hand and jumping down. "Well what do you want?" He asked, taking her hand and they started walking to find a good camp sight. "I want something new, not something anyone would expect." She said, putting her head on his shoulder. He let go of her hand and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. "Don't worry, ill think of something." He said. She smiled and kissed him on the cheek.
They walked for about 10 minutes before they found a clearing. Jimmy took off his backpack and handed it to Cindy. "I'm gonna go get the rocket. You start setting up camp. I'll help as soon as I get back." He gave her a quick peck on the lips, and ran off. "Be careful!" She shouted after him. "I will!" He yelled back.
Cindy watched him run back until she could no longer see him. She sighed and smiled. "How did I end up with such a perfect guy?" She asked herself, sitting down and pulling out the hypercube. She pressed a button and a tent popped out, fully made. "Wow, Jimmy really outdid himself." She said, popping out a second tent and 2 sleeping bags. By the time Jimmy got back with the rocket, half of the things he packed were already out and ready, including the camp fire and logs surrounding it. "Wow, Cindy." He said, walking up to where she was sitting. "You made a lot of progress." She smiled and nodded a thanks. "But I was wondering, do you wanna sleep under the stars tonight, instead inside a tent?" Jimmy asked, sitting down on the ground next to her. "Um, sure, but why?" Cindy asked curiously. "Well, there's gonna be a comet tonight, but I'm not sure what it's called, and it's so post to have a special glow to it that will light up the whole sky." Jimmy said, taking the hypercube out of her hand and popping out a soda.
"Oh, that sounds nice, ok, sure, we can sleep under the stars." Cindy said, watching Jimmy pop out another soda. He handed it to her and she thanked him. "I'm gonna go read my book, in my tent for a while in my tent. When your ready to put them up, let me know." She gave him a short kiss and walked into her tent with her book.
A few hours later
"Cindy, can I come in?" Jimmy asked outside her tent. "Ah huh." He heard her say. He opened the flap and crawled into her tent. She was laying on her sleeping bag, her book in hand. "Still reading?" He said, lying down next to her. She nodded and turned the page. Jimmy nodded and looked up.
"What page are you on now?"
"212." She said, focusing on the book. "Must be interesting if your not talking about it." Jimmy said. "Aww! That's so sweet!" Cindy said, obviously not listening to what Jimmy had said. "What? What happened?" He asked, wanting to know. "This girl in the book, the guy she likes is moving away. So she wrote him a poem! Its so cute!" She said, looking at Jimmy for the 1st time since he entered the tent. "Read it to me." Jimmy said, laying on his side, so he faced her. "Ok, listen:
My darkest days, all I see,
Is you right there in front of me.
You keep me going, through the pain,
Even when I'm alone in the rain.
I try to forget, since we will never be,
But I can't stop thinking about "you and me".
Yes, I know, it's a silly dream,
But dream I may, since this you seam,
Aware of my feelings, aware of yours,
I wish there were more cures.
To what I feel for you, my love,
Even though we met in some kind of club.
I will miss you, when you go away,
So now I pray…
You love me like I love you."
Jimmy closed his eyes, then opened them again. "Wow, that's…" Jimmy looked up above him again. "Beautiful?" Cindy finished for him. "Yes…just like a girl I know." Cindy smiled and closed her eyes. She could feel Jimmy's lips on hers. When they broke from their kiss, Jimmy looked into her eyes and smiled. "Welcome to Neptune, princess."
Ok, I know, it wasn't as long as I promised, but my mom is yelling at me to go to bed, so I had to stop. But trust me; the next chapter will be long! And the comet will be in the next chapter. Oh, and about the book and poem Cindy was reading, its just something I made up, so if anyone wants to use them, ask my permission 1st.
Same deal as last time, guys, I need at least 6 reviews to write more! The more reviews the better! Till next time, guys! PEACE OUT!
