a new year 1992

[Jacksblackpearl]

"Excuse me ?" I frown. 'I thought you needed help with economics tonight ?"

I'm confused since she pays me to help her study not have fun.

(they're not watching the movie overthere anymore ? )

[Hannah]

(lol we got a li'll carried away posting So yah, we're solving things *highfives Hannah's forehead*)

"Oh come on, my parents'll pay you anyway." *puppy eyes*

[Jacksblackpearl]

"What are they gonna do anyways ?"

I glance behind what's er face at A stranger, Dom Ana and some others I don't know. To be honest I don't belong with them. They're prejudiced and simply acting stupid towards me. No use in being around them if they have a whole opinion ready without them even knowing me. Then again. If I don't show up then I don't get paid..

[Hannah]

"I don't know, we're taking the new guy's car to town and we'll just see. Come ooon, I reaaally don't want to be studying!" She moans.

Jack - "Hey, you guys coming or not?" I ask the two of them, cos Mia seems to want to come. I don't think I know the other girl though.

[Jacksblackpearl]

I shrug 'It's your parents money anyways' I mumble to myself and then I glance at the new guy "You guys do know that those people in that car probably don't like me and therefor may not want me with you guys?" I suggest

[Hannah]

Ana: "are you always this positive?" I ask her and raise an eyebrow and get into the car on the seat next to the driversseat.
Jack: "Your call." I shrug and get into the drivers seat, just waiting to see what they'll decide to do.

*takes Giselle's hand and quickly makes her way over, not wanting them to go without her* "We're coming"


(we gotta goooo But we'll cya soonish again *huggles*)

[Jacksblackpearl]

(same here, birthday buhbyyyee sweeties *huggles* )

"Yeah I am' I tell Ana with a smirk and I shrug when Mia drags me along 'Fine fine..' I say and I get in wherever there is space in the car.
I glance at Jack 'Does the new guy have a name or is it just new guy?" I ask Jack.
I heard rumours about a new guy being at school but I was in the library studying and I didn't feel like checking out who he was. Perhaps we'll have some classes together. We'll see

[Hannah]

Jack - "Just new guy will do, but it's Jack if you prefer that." I smirk at her.

Ana - I turn on the radio, actually kinda loud. I make a face when classic music sounds from the speakers.. I guess his dad has a bad music taste. Quickly I start flipping through the channels, until I find 'Guns n roses'

Jack - After a while of driving we actually get to the centre (oh yeah, I knew how to find it.. thanks to Ana screaming 'NOOO THE OTHER WAY' ever so often). "Where are we going to anyway?" I ask, following the signs that lead us downtown.

Ana - "The Roma" I tell him and look out of the window

Jack - "As in the big city in Italy? Then we drove the wrong direction." I inform her matter-of-factly.

Ana - I cant hide a smirk "Yeah.. whatever sparrow." I say and point at the side of the road "Pull over."

Jack - I hit the breaks, so that the guys in the backseat nearly smash through the windshield. "Sorry. Got my license for free with a package of butter." I turn of the engine once we're parked.

~Somewhat later, 3.50 a.m.~

Ana - I am standing outside the club. Inside it was very warm and I just wanted to catch some fresh air. I am leaning with my back against the wall, dozing off a little bit.

Brad, one of the highschool footballplayers and leader of their 'gang' just leaves the building as well, followed by his usual group of buddies. He spots Ana and smirks, "Well well, look who we've got here. Tough chick."

Ana - My eyes snap open when I hear the voice of Brad. We never got along well I narrow my eyes a bit and step a bit foreward, away from the wall, just in case he and his homies are up to something.

Paul grins and punches Brad playfully against his shoulder "Looks... like the opportune moment to me...."

Brad smirks and suddenly gives Ana a push, so she falls back against the wall. "Not so tough now, are we? We heard 'bout you beating up our girls again. Piss off, get it?"

I gasp and close my eyes when he puches me hard against the wall. My back kinda dissagrees with the feeling of the stone hitting my back. I swallow, trying not to show any pain on my face.
No good.... no good at all.

*Steps close to Ana once she is standing straight again and pushes her against the wall, holding her there with his body.*

Ana - I try to push him off me and hit him against his face, trying to let him let me go.

The moment Ana punches Paul, though, Brad grabs her by her wrist and twists it painfully.

Jack - Around that moment I get outside, to have a cigarette. It's not like I'm a fervent smoker but every now and then I just need one. I see a group of guys though, pushing someone against the wall. A second look at it makes me recognize Ana, and without thinking much I go over there. "Hey!" I take a hold of the guy's collar (the one who's holding her) and pull her back sharply. "Leave her alone, man." I snap.

*Looks at the new guy and steps closer to him* "Arent you the new one here?" *Narrows his eyes at Jack* "Who do you think you are man, is she your wh.re or what?!"

Jack - I give him a mocking 'smile', stepping inbetween them and Ana. Oh sh!t I'm SO getting my @ss kicked tonight. Why do I always get heroic at the least oppertune moments? Can't I like.. join greenpeace or something, instead of standing up for girls I hardly even know? One way or another, the guy seems like he's expecting an answer, so I narrow my eyes right back at him. "Yeah I'm the new guy. The one that'll be telling you to pick on someone of your own size."

"..Get outta here if you don't wanna get hurt, boy."

Jack - F*ckface. "Likewise." I tell him. I look at Ana who's just standing there, looking from one to another, "Let's go." I tell her, really not intending to get into any (more) trouble.

Ana - I look and Jack and just nod, kinda speachless he just helped me not to get into the hospital tonight.
Together we make our ways over to his car, I dont really know where the other people are who came with us.. but I am sure Mia will get them all a ride home. She knows enough people here.

"Runing away babyface?!" *makes his way after them and holds anas arm tight*

I'm about to tell 'em to back off again, when the other guy pushes me against the car pretty darn roughly. The impact makes my teeth rattle and for a second I don't feel so great.

"Don't get into our way, new guy. Or we'll have to teach ya the hard way." He hisses.

Jack - "Subtle." I compliment him. "Very much so." The sight of his fist darting towards my face takes for about one second, then the impact of it is way more present than anyone else. I curse and grab my nose, which is bleeding. Oh f*ck. I push the guy of and trip him quickly, then grab Ana's arm. I just wanna get outta here.

Ana - In the meanwhile the guy hit me a bleeding nose aswell and my arm is hurting like hell. I am not sure what he did with it, but he twisted it in some weird way.. at least in a way the arm doesnt like to be twisted in.

Jack - I open the cardoor and as I pull Ana away from the other guy I shove her inside. Someone else tries to grab a hold of my neck or something but I elbow him in the gut roughly and push him back.

Ana - Eventhough I am deffinatly not allowed to drive yet, I already drive cars since two years. Dom tought me once and ever since I drive like a maniac. And that is exactly what I do now. Within a second I pulled a screwdriver out of my pocket and jam it into the contact thingy. It only takes another three seconds to make the engine work.

Jack - In the meanwhile I received another punch against my face, and my cheek is bruised pretty badly. But I managed to get to the car as well and I get in as soon as I see Ana on the drivers seat. "Go!" I snap.

Ana - I was actually not planning on staying here any longer, so I simply hit the gas and the car stars driving. Without looking if I hit something or not, I drive backwards, out of the parkinglot, onto the streets.

Jack - Once we're driving on a long straight road outta the centre, I dare to take my hand of my nose. It's covered in blood and a small stream is still running from one of the nostrils, but it's starting to get better. "F*ck, I'm never standing up for you again." I warn her, and I look over to her side. I spot the screwdriver in the contact and automatically reach for the keys in my jeans. "..." Great. My dad is going to f*cking kill me and then bury me alive when he sees this.

Ana - I look at him and flash him a grin, despite the pain in my face. "Thanks" I tell him and see his eyes wander down to the screwdriver. "I can fix that later..." I tell him and look into the mirror to see how bad my face looks.

Jack - "You better. My dad's gonna nut me." I tell her. I move my jaw a li'll. It's hurting. "Where's your place?" I ask, considering *mine* is definately not an option of where to go to.

Ana - "We're... not going to my place." I simply state, since I really dont wanna face my father at the moment. He is not really font of make up.. especially not when it covers like half my face and its colour is dark red.. with some spots turning black and blue.
"Dom's place it'll be..." I mumble. Im gonna get my ass kicked there... and it was not even my fault this time.

Jack - "Fine by me." I mumble, not really giving a d@mn where we're going. I touch the place where I got punched against my cheek, and a sting of pain shoots through my brain. That'll sure turn a fancy color in the morning. Soon as we reach the house I recognize as Dom's, and we parked the car, we both get out and go over to the frontdoor. I wonder whether anybody's there though, so we can get in. I look over to Ana.

Ana - I let the screwdriver dissapear in one of my pockets again and pull out a key. Once I opened the door, I kick out my shoes and look at Jack "Yer goin' home?"

Jack - No. F*cking. Way. "Let me see. My face is blue and swollen like a blueberry, the contact of my dad's car has been dislocated by a screwdriver, it's 4 am in the morning and I would have to wake 'em up cos I don't have a key. I don't think so." I look around the place for a while. "...I suppose you sleep here, right?" I question.

Ana - I chuckle a little bit when he sums up the things that would only make the situation more... intresting.
"Yeah.. I.. kinda.. live here." I state nodding and walk over to the fridge, opening it and pulling out a cold bottle of beer, holding it against my nose ".. wanna stay here?" I ask, looking around the side of the bottle at him.

Jack - "If that's okay." I agree. I start thinking though, if I stay here then I'll have to leave for school from here tomorrow so I won't be home until like 4 in the afternoon. I think my parents freaked out enough to have called up the police by then. ....And I'd like to *not* get into touch with those guys again. Bad experiences. "Can I use the phone?" I ask

Ana - I shrug, "If ya want to.." I say and open the bottle "want one?"

[Hannah]

Jack - "Yeah, sure." I mumble, while I go into the livingroom where I remember the phone to be. I pick it up and dial my home number. I let it ring for like a dozen of times, but no one picks up. So I try again. This time someone do picks up. Just like I thought they would.

George aka the new guys dad - "Jack!? Where on earth are you!? Are you insane?"

Jack - How did they know it was me? ....Oh wait. That's obvious. "I'm at a friends place." I tell him, "I'm staying here for tonight, kay?"

George - "...It's 4 am. Your mother was worried sick 'bout you! Did you get into trouble again? I swear, if you're getting into trouble so soon again I will make you regret it!" He shouts angrily.

Jack - I just listen to his whole speech with only half interest. It's always the same anyhow.

Ana - I am standing in the doorway, leaning against the doorpost, sipping my beer and listening to the screaming from the other side of the phone. Nice dad.. almost as nice as mine. Weird that people like us can have something else in common then getting beaten up.

Jack - When my dad is shouting at me that he should've gotten me of to boarding school or -if he would've been allowed- to jail instead, I interupt him, "Hey! I'm still alive, yes, thanks for your worries. And sure I'll be home tomorrow. Fine as can be. Now stop friggin' yelling, it's 4 am in the morning!" That only makes him shout harder and more angry though, so I put the phone down with a 'clang'. "@sshole."

Ana - I nod agreeing "He sounded like one" I state and look over to the stairs, when someone walks downstairs. Not good..?
Two seconds later, Dom appears in the dooropening.
No good at all.
"hi..."

*looks at jack* '....' *looks at ana* '.... what the fuck happened to your face?!'

Ana - "It ... met a wrist"

Jack - I look from Dom back to Ana, judging by her reaction that he's teling her off for this. "Wasn't her fault." I tell Dom. "Not considering the fact of who she is - no offence" I tell Ana

Ana - I make a hissing noice and sip some more of the beer.

*grumbles something and walks over to ana, studying the wounds on her face, taking the beer from her hands and walks into the kitchen. After about a minute he returns with two wet handoeken, hands one to jack and walks over to ana with the other one, starting to clean her face from the blood

Jack - I whipe my face, clearing up the blood that was drying on my lips and chin by now. It cover up most of the towel, really, and I can feel that it starts to get runny again. I hold my nose shut for a moment and when it feels okay again I let go. I wonder whether Dom's okay with me staying here. I should probably just go, but I really don't like the thought of driving around for 4 hours in a place that I don't know in a car that won't start without a screwdriver.

Ana - I make a face when Dom starts cleaning my face. Somehow it makes me feel like a little kid, but that is most likely exactly what he wants.
Once he is done cleaning my face, I look over at Jack whos face kinda changed since the first time I saw him. Must say though that I liked it better before.

Jack - I roll the towel up and look over to Dom "Is it okay if I stay here for the night?" I ask him, since it's his place and all that.

I look over at him and nod, pointing at the couch, before looking at Ana "Go to bed.."

Ana - I just nod, knowing I shouldnt say anything anymore because I would kinda piss him off even more.
"Night..." I tell Jack and smile then a bit ".. and thanks."

Jack - I give her a bittersweet smirk, "I'll tell you you're welcome when my face stops feeling like a truck ran into it." I tell her. "Night."

Once Ana dissapeared he looks over at Jack, while pulling a cover and some pillows out of a closet. "what exactly happened?"

Jack - I take the covers and pillows from him and dump them on the couch. "Some guys were making trouble. Don't know who, seemed like jocks to me. I told 'em to back of and they didn't like that much so thing got messy." I put the towel down nearby in case my nose starts bleeding again. "Don't blame Ana. As far as I can tell she didn't do anything to start the fight yknow."

*sighs and looks at him* "Are ya sure about that? I mean... she is kinda... insane at times."

I shrug, sitting down on the couch and taking my shoes of. "If she did I think she learned her lesson anyhow." I point out.

I nod and smirk at him, putting my hand on his shoulder "thanks for helping her out.. means a lot to me ya know..."

I figured that. He seems to take the part of playing Ana's big brother as far as I can see it. Either that or a really weird boyfriend. Really weird. "Yeah okay." I tell him, not really to say you're welcome cos seriously - my face.

~Next Morning~

Ana - As always, school starts at 8 am; 4 hours after they came home. At exactly 6:45 I am getting up, walking downstairs, sneaking passt the sleeping Jack, outside. On my way outside I steal the carkeys out of his pocket. I start the car with the screwdriver once more and drive it towards the garage.
At exactly 7:30 I am at Dom's place again, drove the car with the keys this time actually after fixing it.

Jack - I woke up from Dom and his sister being all active and schoolgoing and all that. So after turning around and trying to ignore school and sleep more for about three times, I gave up and got up as well. So I just did, and I got dressed and went to the bathroom where I wash my face.

Ana - As soon as I am inside again, Mia starts putting make up on my face, trying to cover the worst bruices. I push her away and walk into the kitchen, sitting down and reaching for the cereal.

Jack - When I'm ready I find my way downstairs again where I find Ana in the kitchen. "Hey." I tell her. She actually looks better than last night. Well, her nose seems a li'll swollen and her eye's black(er) but there's no blood anymore. According to the mirror I have a dark bruise just above my left cheekbone but that's all the damage I could really spot so I'm fine with it.

Ana - I look up from my cereal and smirk when I see him, chuckling a little bit "sexy bruise you got there.." I smirk and shove his carkeys towards him.

Jack - "Ya like it? Thanks, I had it specially made by Jocks&co. Very exclusive." I pick up my carkeys "What's this?" I answer, cos I don't remember giving them to her.

Ana - "Carkeys"I state matter of factly

Jack - "......" I have the urge to pick up that bowl of milk and cereal and put it onto her head instead. "Thank you. I learn something new every day." I sit down on the opposite side of her. "What did ya do with 'em?" I look around to see where she got the cereal from.

Ana - I pass the pack of cereal "Went for a drive" I tell him and pass him the milk aswell, shoving some cereal into my mouth

Jack - I take one of the bowls and dump some cereal in it, leaving the milk behind though. I don't feel like eating sloppy breakfast this morning. I just spoon up the dry cereal, looking over at Ana. "With the keys?" I ask, because last time I checked only a screwdriver started the engine. "How's that?"

Ana - "If I wouldnt have drove with the keys.. I wouldnt have taken them, right?"I ask him with a smirk and raise my eyebrow, munching some more of the cereal. I get up and walk over to the fridge, opening it and pulling a pack of orange juice out of it, sloffing back to the table.

Jack - "You fixed it" I guess, more as a statement than a question. I swallow down the last bit of my cereal (I'm a fast eater) and then smirk. "Thanks." I tell her.

Ana - "Yawelcme"I tell him, my mouth full with food

Jack - "You too." I tell her, cos I still owed her that. I glance at the clock which tells us it's 7.45. Huh. I'll actually be in time for a change. Okay so my face is bruised and my clothes are smelly, but that's a victory anyhow.

*mia* walks in and tries to put some more make up on anas face*

Ana - "Oh come on, quit that bull shit already" I tell her and finish my breakfast.

"She is only trying to help you, ana.."

Ana - I turn to Dom and frown "Did you ever put on make up after being in a fight?"

".. no, but that is not the point.'

Jack - I swallow down some orange juice before mingling in the conversation "I did" "But it was in Las Vegas, I hadn't slept in a week and I have reason to believe a travestiet put something in my drink."

~All of them just stare at jack for a moment ~

Jack - "....Carry on." I tell 'em, fixating my attention back on the orange juice instead.

Ana - I chuckle and look at Dom with a grin "maybe you should try some lipstick one day" I tell him before getting up and walk upstairs to brush my teeth.

[Hannah]

~At school~

Of course we have the luck of having Biology class first in the morning.

Ana - When I get out of the car, I get stopped by Dom

"Try not to fuck up today Ana... Please..."

Ana - I sigh and look up at him "Ill try not to..."

*smirks and hugs her* Good.. otherwise ill kick your ass...

Jack - "Touching." I tell 'em, before walking towards the schoolbuilding with Ana cos we're in the same class. We have to be in 2.05 again so I actually know the way. When we get there we're like two minutes early. "This should've been filmed. It's my first time of being at school before 8 since primary school." I sit down with Ana somewhere in the back of the class.

*Ms Pomeroy enters the class and looks at ana, being a bit surprised* Very nice Fuller... First time not too late since the first grade?

Ana - 'very funny ms pomeroy" I tell her and roll my eyes

Jack - I interupt her halfway down that sentence "Oh yeah, I've been a good influence to her." I claim, very aware that I don't look like it in my messy clothes and with the bruise on my cheek. But I give the teacher a proud grin. "Ya see, I told Ana here, I told her, Ana, I said, you're attitude towards the undoubtedly fascinating lessons of ms whats-her-face is simply unaccept---"

"Oh shut up."

Jack - "yes sir."

Ana - I look at Jack and raise an eyebrow "Did you forget to wake your brain this morning?"

Jack - "I think I left it at Dom's." I admit. The buzzer goes and more students drift into the class. Some of them apparently know 'bout last night, cos they seem to give us suspicious looks. I just give them the same looks in return. We get a very compassionate look from Madisol though. Well, I do. Ana just gets a glare. Fair enough, I guess.

Ana - I ignore the other students pretty much for 110% and glare at the blackboard, waiting for the lesson to start so they might aswell stop staring, since then they will have to look in frond of them at well.. or at least they are supposed to do that.

Ms Pomeroy flawlessly picks up the 'conversation' and rumours, and before starting the lesson she gives Jack and Ana a fake interested look "Seems like the two of you had a rough work-out last night."

Ana - I smile cutely at the teacher and nod "Oh yes miss." I nod and put a hand on jacks knee "He is really good you know"

*yaw almost hits the floor*

"I hope you kept my lessons about sexual protection in mind." She says dryly.

Jack - "No kid could've survived that passion, miss, we're sure of that." I play along, taking a hold of Ana's hand.

"You had sex with *her*?! shes a freak!"

Jack - "So are you." I give her a charming grin, "Makes you think, doesn't it?" I wink at her.

Ana - I chuckle and pull my hand back. Enough of this now

"Now can we all just get our hormones back in place?" The teacher interupts the nonsense, "Take your books and open on page 81."

*looks unsure at her friend for a moment and pulls out a small mirror, just to check out, if her pretty face is still as nice as it used to be or if there is any sign of becoming an ana-freak*

~LATEEEEEEEEEEEEEER~


(yes, we're finally done here. Time to crash. Have fun *reading*, you guys. You'll get a paper on this one so be sure to remember all the details. Ciao *wave*)
