A/N: More Peddie for you guys. I love getting a bunch of reviews from all my readers, they make me happy. I get emails telling me I get reviews and alerts and stuff in the middle of class and it makes me so happy. So this isn't a one-shot; it's a two-shot, possibly more. Depends on a) what you guys want and b) if I can think of what to write.

I want to write other stories, but I'm stuck with Peddie right now; I ship them so much. Hard core shipper right here. So, hope you enjoy!


Chapter 1:

You Can Never Win

"You can never win when it comes to Patricia Williamson."

Eddie narrowed his dark eyes at Jerome. He was irritated by the fact that the blonde was laughing directly to his face despite the fact that the only reason Eddie decided to ask him for help was over a serious matter. Patricia was still extremely angry with him (she resorted to ignoring him for now) for publishing Mara's article to the school website and getting her expelled. He wanted to make it up to her, but how exactly he could do that was the question.

"Seriously, Jerry. You actually wanna help me out or something instead of mocking me?" He muttered, dropping down onto Alfie's bed. Jerome laced his fingers together and leaned forward on his bed.

"Here's a word of advice when it comes to Patricia. If you're right, then you're actually very, very wrong. And if you're actually wrong…well, to put it simply, you're done for. And if by some means you can prove that you're right and she's wrong, she'll simply storm away in anger and be even more upset with you. Telling her that you were wrong is the best option; you'll pretty much be back to square one, but she'll still be a little irritated with you. Until you do something even dumber. Then the cycle restarts. It's what we call The Patricia Cycle of Anger."

Eddie raised an eyebrow. It all seemed to be correct information—sounded like the Patricia that Eddie knew. He guessed that someone who knew Patricia as well as Jerome would be able to give him at least decent advice. "So what do you suggest I do then?"

Jerome looked thoughtful for a moment. "Why do you care so much, anyway?"

"What?"

"I mean to ask why you care so much about making it up to Patricia. I will repeat what I asked at the ball: have a crush, Eddie?" He asked with a teasing tone, smirking slightly.

Eddie tried to keep his "cool-guy" composure and shrugged the question off. "Maybe I do, maybe I don't." He said simply. Jerome rolled his eyes, which caused Eddie to sigh. "Alright, fine. But she won't listen to me at all. I even lowered my force field for her! And you know what else? I overheard her telling Joy that she liked me! And that she thinks I'm really cute—can't argue there. Anyways I told her I overheard her telling Joy that, but she still denied it! She just called me fake and delusional!" He muttered, finishing with a groan.

Jerome chuckled. "Signature Trixie."

"That's all you can say?" Eddie said with a slightly demanding tone and fell onto his back. Jerome rolled his eyes once again and didn't feel the need to respond.

"Hey, Jerome, didn't you say you wanted to get in some ping-pong practice?"

Amber had entered the room with two paddles in hand. Eddie didn't even bother to sit up, and Jerome looked at the blonde at the door.

"Yeah, give me a few, Amber."

"Sure," she said, walking in and sitting beside Jerome on his own bed. "So what're you doing in here, Eddie? I thought you roomed with Fabian."

"He does. He just had a question to ask me." Jerome said.

Amber raised an eyebrow. "Like what?" She asked, tilting her head to the side.

"You wouldn't." Eddie sat up, glaring at the other boy in the room. Jerome grinned. It was as if he was taking on a challenge.

"Eddie wanted advice on how to proclaim his love to our friend, Trixie."

Eddie's jaw dropped at Jerome's words and Amber clapped her hands together, jumping up into the air and rushing over to Eddie. "Ooh, yay, Peddie! I knew this was going to happen! You two are always around each other and flirting and bickering like an old married couple! So adorable!" She squealed, and then placed her hands on her hips. "And I'm the Love Guru of this house; why did you go to Jerome for help; he can't hold a steady girlfriend!"

Jerome mock gasped. "I have feelings too!" He joked. Eddie ignored Jerome and snorted.

"Maybe because your relationship with Alfie didn't last forever even though you always said it would? Or your advice for Nina and Fabian didn't work out? Or the fact that your advice for Fabian to get Joy off of his back isn't working in the slightest?" He suggested with an edge of sarcasm. Amber looked taken back by his list. "Yeah, Fabian tells me things sometimes. It's called the Guy Code. Something that Jerome just broke."

Jerome didn't seem to have listened to Eddie's last comment this time and let out a loud laugh. "Listen to this one go on!" He hooted.

Amber stuck her tongue out at Jerome and crossed her arms over her chest once she turned back to Eddie. "Love is and always will be my thing." She said firmly. Eddie sighed.

"Alright," he said, and prepared finger quotes for his next phrase. "'Love Guru.' What magical idea do you have in store for me?"

Amber grinned and sat down beside Eddie, frantically speaking about this and that. She mentioned numerous things about Patricia. What she liked, what she didn't like, and most importantly, what she absolutely hated.


A/N: Like it? Whenever Jerome and Eddie talk, it always makes me laugh; I love these two together. And was anyone else pleased with the Peddie in tonight's episode? I mean, I was. I was expecting more, but it was hilarious most of the time, with the "being romantic with R2D2" and Patricia's typos? I'm hoping for another kiss tomorrow; my background could use a new pic!

I'll probably update tomorrow or the next day; depends on how much homework I get. Thanks for reading!
