Well, I don't have much to say. I don't own Fairly odd parents. Only Jenny. That's it. Oh, I almost forgot. Enjoy the chapter, and thanks for the kind reviews!

Chapter 8

Jenny was waiting patiently outside the school doors when Timmy burst out of them, carrying his overloaded backpack. "Sorry I'm a little late. Crocker made me copy out some questions from the math lesson."

"Don't worry about it." Jenny smiled, brushing a stray strand of red hair out of her face. "Oh, and I talked to my godparents." Timmy added. "They've agreed to leave us along unless I call them."

"That wasn't really necessary Timmy!" Jenny cried out hastily. "Yeah well, I thought we might want to hang out alone, without being disturbed." Hoisting his backpack onto his shoulders, Timmy looked down nervously. He hoped he hadn't blown it.

But he had done no such thing. Jenny helped him with his backpack and said, "It's no big deal. So, where are we headed?"

"If you want we can catch the bus and go to Adrenaline Land. I borrowed some money from my parents." Timmy suggested as they started walking. "Cool." smiled Jenny. She felt a little nervous, hanging out with Timmy. But she shrugged the feeling away lightly. "Everything will be fine." she told herself. "Just have a good time."

So the 2 started walking to the bus stop downtown. They entertained themselves by telling cheesy jokes and talking about Jenny's drawings. Shocked, Jenny realized that ever since she had met Timmy, she hadn't been drawing as much as she usually did. She wondered if that was a good thing or not.

Finally they reached the bus stop, but as they waited for the bus, large grey cumulus clouds appeared out of no where and it started to drizzle rain. "Oh no!" Timmy cried in despair. "We can't go to Adrenaline Land now! Nobody goes to an amusement park when it's raining!" Then, to make matters worse, lightening flashed, and 3 seconds later, a large crash of thunder followed. The rain was pouring down in large droplets now.

Timmy desperately glanced around, looking for shelter. He saw plenty of stores, but none that he wanted to stay in for long. After turning around 360 degrees, he noticed a small ice cream shop called Freeze. "Come on! Let's go in there!" he said to Jenny, who was trying to cover herself with her arms. Glad to get dry, she followed him into the ice cream shop.

Freeze was a small shop that was designed to look like something out of the 90's. A jukebox filled with old and new music stood in a corner, and there was a disco ball on the roof that didn't work. The walls were painted bright, neon colors and plastered with posters. At the front was a large freezer. If you looked through the top, you could see the seventy five various types of ice cream the shop sold. There was even a small candy shelf.

The tables and benches were made of wood and the benches were padded with soft cushions.

"Do you want to get some ice cream while we're stuck in here?" Timmy offered, pointing to the freezer. "We may as well make the most of this."

"Sure." Jenny agreed. "But you don't have to pay for me. I brought my purse." she gestured to her bright rainbow polka-dotted handbag. Timmy shook his head. "I insist."

So he walked up to the woman behind the counter, who was a kind looking old woman with a loose bun in her hair. "I'll have a bowl of cookies and cream ice cream please."

"And I'll have a bowl of black liquorice ice cream please." Jenny told her to Timmy's amazement.

"Black liquorice?" he said in amazement and disbelief when they were sitting across from each other in a booth. "I love this flavour!" Jenny enthusiastically scooped up some of her treat and ate it slowly, savouring the taste.

"I expected you to order rainbow sherbet." Timmy said, also eating his ice cream, but a little more slowly. He was more focussed on Jenny then anything else. "You know, since you love rainbows so much."

Jenny giggled and teasingly shook a finger at Timmy. "Remember what I always say Timmy. Looks can be deceiving."

"Yeah." Timmy agreed, munching his ice cream thoughtfully. "Where did you hear that anyways?"

"My mother told it to me when I was 5." Jenny answered. "She said, 'Jenny, no matter what you do, remember to never judge the book by it's cover. There may be something different inside. The way something looks can be deceiving.' I liked the sound of that, even though I never really understood it. When I got older I started to understand it, and it reminds me of myself so much, that it's just stuck with me."

Silence ensued for a few minutes as the friends ate some ice cream. They both seemed a little nervous. Finally Timmy spoke up. "Hey Jenny? You know when you were yelling at Veronica and you said you'd rather hang out with me, and you said you wouldn't ditch me because I was your friend. Did you really mean all of that?"

"Of course." Jenny spoke sincerely. "You're my only friend in Dimmsdale so far. After all, I told you my deep, dark secrets."

"Yeah, but I made you tell me." Timmy pointed out. Jenny sighed. "To be honest Timmy, I think even if you hadn't forced me to tell you, I would have eventually told you anyways. There's something about you that tells me that I can trust you. I don't exactly know what it is yet, but it's there. It's a feeling that I felt with my parents, and with Hannah. I don't get it easily. It only comes with certain people."

"What about the fairy that made you a Bornagain? Did you feel it with him?" Timmy asked, feeling better.

Jenny glared at her ice cream for a second. " I don't really know. I thought I felt it when I first met him, but afterwards, I discovered that I couldn't trust him. And by then, it was too late. I don't know why I felt the feeling, because normally when I feel it, it isn't wrong. But with him…" she sighed and stirred her ice cream with her spoon. "I think I got a little too excited. I didn't stop to think before I agreed to become a Bornagain. That could be why I felt it. But now I know that he's a total jerk."

Timmy grabbed her hand and looked her in the eyes. "Well if you ever need help, I promise I'll be there for you." Jenny looked at his kind blue eyes, and smiled a small shy smile. "Thanks."

Suddenly the music changed to a slow song that Jenny knew. Her hazel eyes lit up. "I love this song!"

Timmy stood up and held out his hand. "May I have this dance?" he asked politely. Jenny laughed out loud. "Of course kind sir." she teased, acting like a princess. She took Timmy's hand and allowed him to lead her onto the floor, where there was a little bit of room for dancing. When they got to a good place where they wouldn't be crashing into things, Timmy put his arms around Jenny's waist, and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Slowly, they started to rock back and forth, the storm outside and the slow music blending to make both of the dancers feel calmer.

Jenny stared at Timmy, who looked really nervous. He had obviously never danced with a girl before. But this was fun. She was having a good time again. It felt like an eternity since she had had fun. And his words were repeating over and over in her head. "If you ever need help, I promise I'll be there for you." It stunned her that he was so kind and willing to be there for her, even though she was different. But it made her feel good, and it only strengthened her trust in him.

Smiling, she placed her head on his shoulder, the sounds of the music, the storm outside, and Timmy's heartbeat soothing her. For the very first time since she had become a Bornagain, she felt whole. Complete. Happy.

Little did she know that Anti Cosmo had been watching them the entire time. He smiled wickedly as he observed Jenny leaning against Timmy. Everything was working in his favor. Soon he could and would unleash his plan.

Very soon.

Oooh, cliffhanger! Alright readers, you know the drill! R And R! mwahahahaha!
