Disclaimer: I don't own anything but my story. Yup!
Okay, so I hope this fanfic will be just as popular as my first JN one. It is the sequel to "Study for real?" Some of my reviewers weren't too thrilled on a sequel, but I sure hope that this one will come out just as good! You don't have to read "Study for Real?" first, but it is recommended if you haven't.
OKAY LET US START THE STORY!
"Lala, ho-dee-duh-lee-dum. It's a wonderful day today, don't ya think, Mother?" Cindy sighed. Mrs. Vortex eyed her daughter carefully.
"What's been lifting your spirits, hon? Usually you're not this cheerful," Mrs. Vortex replied. "You're usually complaining about school and everything."
"Well not today! I actually want to go to school," Cindy notified her mother, though she was nervous about going to her high school. Even though she was fifteen, she got nervous for the slightest things. But dealing with Jimmy today was the worst thing that she could get nervous from.
She had a great night that last night. She came home all happy. Her mom noticed that too. Was something going on that she didn't know about? Oh, was she in for a big surprise!
Cindy checked the time on her watch and almost choked.
"Mother, I've got to get to the bus stop or I'll be late! I'll see you soon!" Cindy gave her mom a kiss on the check and skipped out onto the sidewalk to the bus stop at the end of her block.
When she got there she looked around for any sign of the bus. It was anywhere in sight! She sighed, putting her hand on the streetlight.
All of a sudden she felt someone tapping her shoulder. She twirled around to see a face higher than hers. Grinning, Jimmy backed her up until her back touched the pole. He brought his face really close to hers, whispering just one word.
"Hey."
"Hey back," the blonde-haired girl replied. He brought his face just a few centimeters away when the sound of a roaring bus was heard around the corner. He backed off.
"Man, why now?" he grumbled, looking down, away from Cindy. Cindy giggled, though she was deeply disappointed herself. But she knew now that Jimmy didn't want anyone else to know, not just yet, that they liked each other. Wait, did this mean they were dating? This was just all too confusing.
Jimmy looked up at the sound of her laughing, while the school bus pulled to their side, and smiled at her.
The doors of the big yellow bus opened next to them.
"Ladies first, malady," he said, bowing.
"Why thank you," Cindy replied. And with that she walked onto the bus and looked for a place to sit.
"Hey girl!" Cindy's best friend, Libby yelled. Libby was patting a spot next to her on her seat. Cindy hurried to the open spot and saw Jimmy board the bus, too. He looked over at her.
While Libby was blabbing away about some new awesome song she just heard last night, Cindy winked at Jimmy. He smiled and then passed her seat, slowing a little and reaching out, but not enough so anybody else could see, and dropped something in her hand and grazing his hand over her shoulder. He continued on to sit where Carl and Sheen, his two best buddies, were, gliding in next to Sheen. They automatically welcomed him in there conversation, and he was pulled in, talking just as much as they were.
Cindy looked down to where her hands were, one on top of the other with entwined fingers, and saw a chocolate Hershey's kiss nested in them. She blushed, remembering the feeling his hand had left when he lightly slid his it over her shoulder again.
Before Libby noticed, she put the chocolate in her backpack, saving it for later.
Libby didn't see anything and kept going on about her new favorite song/band.
When the bus pulled onto the high school's property, all of the teenagers piled out.
Cindy found herself automatically absorbed in the huge crowd and went with it. She walked up the stairs and entered the large building, finding her locker. When she got there, she unlocked it, and started pulling out books.
Again, she suddenly felt someone tapping her shoulder.
"Jimmy," she started to say, and spun around, all with a smiling face. "I thought…" Then she gasped.
This person was not Jimmy. It was an entirely different boy. A different, grinning boy, who was rich, had brown hair, and an ugly face.
"Why, hello there, Cynthia! If I had known that you'd greet me this warmly, I would've come sooner, though you did not use my name. You said that blasted Neutron's name!" he said.
"Eustace! What in the world are you doing here? Here in my school?! Here where Jimmy somewhere is?!" she cried.
"Aww, Cynthia, don't worry about that doofus. I'll make sure he's in his right place. Now I came back for you! Aren't you happy to see me? I'm sorry I was a jerk at my house, but I want you back. Come back!" Eaustace replied, in a begging manner. He brought his face close.
"N-No! I don't want to! Leave me alone, Eustace!" Cindy shouted, rejecting him. Eustace looked hurt, then his expression changed back to normal.
"Why? We can be together for the rest of our lives! We'll be happy!"
"No! I don't think I could, and I never really liked you…" Cindy drifted off, thinking of how she used him to get to Jimmy.
Eustace's expression was now angry, his face all red.
"This is because of that stupid boy, Jimmy, isn't it? I'll get him! But first, you need to come with me." Eustace had Cindy against her locker, his face very close.
"Just stop right there, Eustace! You have no right to do that!" a voice shouted.
Did you like it? I hope so. It was all on the spot for me. I type without knowing what's gonna happen next… Funny isn't it? Well tell me what you think!! R&R is appreciated, flames aren't. Just tell me what you didn't like about it, rudeness, bad language, or anything like that is NOT needed.
Thanks!
