Weeee! well I'm back! Okay, I'm really bored and am mildly desperate for some CoTT fanfiction involving A/A (heh, it looks like I'm writing in some secret code). So I finally found some time to write one myself. I'm still debating if I should write one not involving A/A but rather Archie/OC. I might anyways... just an idea...
This story might start out abit slowly, but itll get better. I swear on Archies life! (Archie: Hey! :(... the only good thing is that means whatever she says is true...)
Disclaimer: I don't own any cannon characters, meaning characters that are original to the story and are owned by the creators of the show. There, happy? I said it! Now go away! glares all teary eyed at lawyers GO AWAY! I have no money anyways...
Pairings: Archie/Atlanta, Herry/No one (heh, sorry big guy), Jason/Theresa, Odie/no one (hes cool, but I cant really see him in a serious relationship) and Neil/himself (we all know that no girl can come between him and himself)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An April morning, the sky was a cloudy grey and the air was damp. The sounds of a lively chattering could be heard coming from outside. All of them seemed to be enjoying this break from the chilly winter days. Odie and Neil both stood, or one sat the other stood, underneath the shelter of the building's roof. Odie sat with his back against the brick wall, fingers typing quickly and eyes darting swiftly across the screen. Whatever he was doing on his lap top obviously had his attention. Whereas Neil stood there just to avoid getting any mud or dirt on his new shoes. Zeus forbid he looked anything but perfect. Normally, only a very preppy girl would be worried about getting a bit of mud on their shoes, but this was Neil, and hes different from other guys.
Theresa and Atlanta were both chatting, gossiping about the latest rumours that went through the school halls daily. Both of them had, now dried, mud on their lower pants and back, evidence that they had been playing sports together. They were seemingly oblivious as the two other guys, Jay and Archie, started behaving like macho men trying to impress them. Or at the very least talk to them. Herry was also involved in the conversation, and was flexing his muscles, which neither of the other two ever could hope gain.
"Well did you see how I tackled that thing head on?" Archie said to Jay and Herry.
Jay merely responded by rolling his eyes and having a half joking smile half smirk plastered on his face. "You almost got killed, and would have if I hadn't been there."
"Ya, well I've saved you both plenty of times" Herry added.
"And I've probably saved you just as many times" the descendant of Achilles replied.
The conversation went on for a few more minutes, when it started to rain. A normal spring drizzle began, then started to rain a bit harder.
"Atlanta, you should go in before you get sick. Then we'd have to wait for you to get better, and itd be too much of a hassle" Archie babbled out some excuse for his first statement. He wanted to tell her that he liked her, but just not now. The time wasn't right, he would tell her later... when he was feeling braver.
Neil was already inside, saying something about the humidity messing up his hair.
"Awww, is Neil afraid of getting his hair wait?"
"Of course he is, then hed have to go and fix it all nice and pretty again" the team teased.
"Well duh, I dont want to look like I don't have hygiene" replied Neil, looking at himself in his flippy mirror.
"That would be a tragedy" Theresa stated, walking inside as Jay held the door open for the two girls.
"Want me to walk you to your room?" Archie asked Atlanta, trying to make it sound like he didn't care. She shrugged, she in turn also trying to look as though she didn't care. The rest all exchanged knowing glances. Even if they never said it out loud, it was obvious that he was head over heels (A/N: hehe, irony) for her, and she liked him. Though why he never just came out with it and asked her out was a mystery to them.
"I'm going to my room, later guys" Odie said before walking off, ready to go and defeat the virtual monsters on his Diablo game. Virtual monsters were easier to beat then real ones, and it was good to have a break from saving the world once in a while.
Herry said something about working out with his many times great grandfather and Neil said that the humidity outside had caused his hair to curl, so he needed to fix it. This left Jay and Theresa alone. They stood in awkward silence, neither jumping at the option of saying something first.
"Errr, I heard there was a pretty good movie on tonight, should have started by now. You want to watch it?" Jay asked, hand behind his head and refusing to make eye contact.
"Okay, that sounds cool" Theresa answered with a blush creeping on to her face.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And thats it for chapter one. Personally I think I could have written it better, but I was thinking more about what was going to happen rather than how its going to begin. Constructive critisism is always welcomed, also tell me what you think about the aforementioned idea of mine.
And we all know that Atlanta knows that Archie likes her, but doesnt say anything. Its kinda obvious in the show, and no one's that oblivious... right?
Last note: dont you think we need a catagory for CoTT? I mean, a few people are writing ffs for it now...
