DISCLAIMER: DON'T OWN, DON'T SUE!!!

So, after searching all over, I couldn't find a Connor/Jenny fic. I think they had some chemistry going on throughout the show. Basically, this is the result of a possible relationship that occurred in my other fic No Roads Left. Let me know what you think!!!

Enjoy!!


Everything will change,

But love remains the same

- Love Remains The Same by Gavin Rossdale

Chapter 1: First Time

Jenny unlocked the door to the huge house she shared with her fiancé, she was beginning to think that something was wrong with her because she was starting to enjoy going to work just a little too much. At least she managed to grab a shower and change her clothes before leaving the ARC; she'd have had some trouble explaining exactly why her dress was covered in dirt.

It was maybe 2 a.m. Today had been a long day, Cutter and Stephen were nearly lost forever on the opposite side of an anomaly, and Connor nearly had a heart attack when the second anomaly alert went off and it turned out that it was the anomaly that Stephen and Cutter had come out of.

Jenny giggled at the thought of Connor at that particular memory. She wasn't entirely sure, whether Connor knew it or not, but she had noticed the way he had been staring at her yesterday when she'd shown up at the ARC in her engagement party dress.

Cutter had stared at her as well, but not the way Connor had. She pushed it to the back of her mind. She was getting married soon. She couldn't be having second thoughts about anything, now; but she couldn't shake the thought of how nice it might be to be with someone like Connor.

She set her keys down on the table and nearly tripped over the few suitcases that were placed just inside the door.

"That's odd." She muttered as she looked around for her fiancé.

She saw him sitting on one of the couches in the living room near a light.

"Hey you, why are you still up? Are we-are we going on a trip or something?" Jenny asked nervously.

"No, you're leaving Jenny."

Jenny shook her head as if she hadn't heard him right. "Sorry?"

"What's his name Jenny?" he asked standing up.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Jenny replied honestly.

"The bloke you've been out all times of the day and night with!" He shouted at her.

"I haven't been with anyone! What is this about?"

"I'm breaking off the engagement. You embarrassed my mother and everyone at the engagement party when you rushed off after your phone went off! I'm done, trying to turn a blind eye, just take your stuff that I've already packed and get out. I never want to see you again!" He explained as he turned his back to her.

Tears began to spill from Jenny's eye, smearing her make-up. "You-you can't be serious! You think that's why I haven't been home as much lately?"

"Well, what else am I to believe when my fiancée goes awoll for 48 hours without so much as a phone call?"

"I'm sorry that my job requires me to work a lot of hours!"

"Me too." He replied sitting back down on the couch. "You know where the door is.

Jenny didn't know what else to do. She turned, tears still spilling from her eyes. She picked up the few bags, packed them in her car and began driving.

She wasn't exactly sure of where she would go, but for some reason, the more she thought about it, the ARC seemed like the only logical place to go at the moment.

She had nowhere else to go and the ARC would only be temporary until she could find a place of her own. She entered the ARC, not caring about the makeup smeared all over her normally beautiful complexion. Her high heels clicking against the linoleum floors gave her the chills.

The echoes it made sounded something similar to a lost soul walking in a mausoleum, so she took off the heels and wandered around the ARC looking for the coffee room, only to bump into Connor as she rounded the corner.

Jenny had screamed in surprise because she forgot that Connor liked to make his own hours of work.

"Jenny?"

"Connor."

"What you doing here?" he had asked.

She said nothing, she fell into Connor crying. Connor just stood there holding her in his arms while she cried. When she was able to talk again, her eyes swollen from crying, she explained her story to him.

Surprisingly enough, he didn't laugh- not that she expected him to. He simply wiped her tears away and guided her to the lounge and made her some coffee.

"It'll be alright, Jenny." He'd said.

"How, Connor? How is it going to be alright if I have nowhere to live anymore? I'm homeless!" She sobbed hysterically.

"Well, um, tell you what, we'll take the day off tomorrow and look for an apartment or something where you can live temporarily-or permanently if you like."

"What about everyone else? I don't think they'd appreciate our skipping work tomorrow."

Connor waved his hand, "Nah, I wouldn't worry about it. I'm already into overtime and Lester's close to lynching me anyways."

Jenny couldn't help but laugh. It was true though, she happened to walk into Lester's office one day to hear him complaining to Cutter about Connor's overtime.

"Cutter, if you don't deal with Temple's addiction to seeing how much money he can cost the ARC before Boxing Day very soon, then I will." Lester fumed.

Cutter chuckled. "Connor's doing his best to come up with tools for us to better predict the anomalies, I think we at least owe him some gratitude for the work he's done."

Lester sighed, "if only I had the power to fire certain people here."

Cutter smiled and walked out of the office leaving behind a slightly more fuming Lester in his wake.

Connor put his arm around Jenny, "come on Jenny, we'll get you a cup of tea and maybe a cot to sleep on." He said as he guided her down the corridor toward the lounge.

Tomorrow was sure to be an interesting day if they could get away with playing hooky and live to tell the tale.
