The Life Beyond

Summary: Just another "life after Saturday" fic, mostly revolving around Claire and John. Starts right after the movie ends, when everyone is being picked up by parents. My 5th fic, 1st Breakfast Club one.

Rating: PG-13 for now, for language, drug use, and possible sexual stuff…may become R later, depending on how steamy I make the sex scenes, or if I make them at all…lol.

A/N: I'm not even sure if people still read The Breakfast Club fics lol, but I'm gonna write one anyway, because I have no life and can't stop thinking about this movie, and how I would have things happen…or how I imagine they would…please read, please R/R! No flames though, ok? I'm a pyro, I love fire (lol, I SO wanna light my shoe on fire like Bender…), but I'd much rather read constructive criticism or compliments than flames…thanks! Oh, and to those of you who have read my Gilmore Girls fics, I WILL update soon, I promise! I've just been busy, and with the season ending and Jess leaving and all I got sad lol…but I'll write more on them soon. So…read, and I really hope you enjoy! BENDER FOREVER! *insane* =)

Chapter One – Brian

"So, Brian, did you get a chance to study like your mother told you to?" Brian's father asked, as they drove away from school, and the most interesting experience of Brian's life.

"No, Dad. We had to write and essay about why we were there and who we think we are, so that's what I did the whole time," Brian replied.

"You spent over 8 hours on an essay?" his father asked, disbelieving.

He sighed. "Yeah, Dad. Mr. Vernon wanted perfection. And you know I don't hand anything in unless I have re-read it and perfected it numerous times."

"Well, at least we know that Mr. Vernon will like your paper, then…" his father said quietly.

I hope so, Brian thought. He's probably reading it right now and wondering what the hell went on when he wasn't looking. Oh well, the others seemed to approve of it.

They pulled up into the driveway, got out of the car, and walked inside, where Brian's mother was waiting for him.

"Well, young man," his mother started, crossing her arms, "I'm assuming you used your day wisely."

"I already told Dad, we had to write an essay, I didn't have time to study," Brian said, getting annoyed.

His mother sighed. "Well then are you ever going to tell us how you landed in a Saturday detention in the first place?"

"Well…yeah…I umm…I got into a, uh, a fight…yeah. This kid tackled me and I tried to, uh, defend myself. So since we both threw punches we both got detentions," he lied.

His parents stared at him, suspicious. "Hmm…well, if you say so. Just stay out of trouble in the future. Yale looks down on people who get detentions," his mother warned.

He nodded. "OK. I know. It won't happen again, I promise." He retreated to his room to "study". What he actually did was open up his Physics book and stare blankly at the pages, going over what had happened earlier that day.

OK, that's it for this chapter. I know, it's extremely short, but that's how the first few chapters are gonna be. They'll get longer and more interesting, I promise! So tell me what you think, hmm? What I was thinking of doing was having the first 5 chapters each focus on a different person, and what happens to them when they leave detention. After that, I'll just focus on all of them. THANKS FOR READING!!! =)
