A/N: This story just came to me. Supposed to be oneshot but the writing never stopped. I just started shipping John Bender/Claire Standish cuz I find 80s Judd Nelson to be so frickin hot that it should be illegal.

Hope to finish this story soon. I have twin babies to take care of and publishing this was a feat on its own.

This fic is unbeta'd. Any mistakes please inform me. Just keep it friendly.

I do not own these characters.

She was early. Her parents wondered why. She told them that she wanted to make up for the mistake she made that got her in detention last Saturday. It was no big deal for them but it does raise questions in their heads which they never ask them out right. They guessed that their daughter being early at school would begin a new time for her to be good again.

In reality, that wasn't the case. She wanted to be early to be sure that they still exist, the Breakfast club that is. She wanted to know if John would acknowledge her despite her efforts.

And even though John wouldn't be early, she still wanted to be there first to confirm everything they shared in detention last Saturday.

She arrived in school feeling anxious. She saw Andy first who had just finished his jog routine and was starting to do some stretches when he spotted her. She curved a pleasant smile and approached him.

"Hey."

"Hi," Claire replied. "Are you always this early?"

"Yeah," Andy said and began stretching his arms. "Although this time around, I know you know it's a different setting."

She chuckled. "Don't worry. Allison's gonna be here. You already gave her a reason to be."

He smiled and can't help feeling the warm fuzziness inside him.

"What reason?"

They turned and saw Allison back to her dark garb. Despite it, Andy smiled wider as he approached her and kissed her on the lips. She kissed back.

"I can't believe you're back with all the dark shit again," Claire finally recognized.

"It's better this way," Andy replied instead. "So that no one will know how gorgeous she actually is."

"Or are you just attracted to goth girls?"

Brian came into the picture. It was feeling alright already that all of them came this early to be with each other's company.

"Shut up," Andy grunted.

"Good morning to you, too," Allison finally greeted as she wrapped her arm on Andy's waist. She looked at Claire and continued, "I thought you weren't gonna be a part of us anymore."

"I thought so, too, but…"

"But what?" Andy had to ask. They were curious as to what made her change her mind.

Suddenly, another voice was heard. "You couldn't ignore me if you tried, huh?"

They all turned around and saw John Bender in different ragged clothes but still with his signature clunky boots with the red bandana on one of them. He curved a cocky smile at them as his eyes landed on the prettiest redhead he had ever seen.

"Sweets," he greeted as he approached her with a dark smoldering look lingering onto her.

"Someday, you're gonna be the death of me," she confessed. She just couldn't resist him after what he did.

He gave her a small peck at the corner of her lips and whispered, "You're not going alone on that route when that happens."

She smiled as her heart fluttered. She felt somehow relieved that they left detention that fateful Saturday changed and united in diversity.

"It's official," Brian interjected. "We are the Breakfast Club."

Everyone smiled. No need to argue anymore.

The days that followed would create a subtle buzz in Shermer High. They still hang out with their friends just like any other day but people seem to notice that they regard other people outside their circle. Like when Allison came up to Claire to return her eyebrow pencil. The look on the faces of Claire's friends was enough to question her sanity. They tried asking her what that was but she just shrugged them off. Or like when John walked up to Andy with Brian on tow and invited him outside with a wink. Andy's teammates raised their brows and were already puffing their muscles out to display their protectiveness over Andy to which Andy only laughed and told them not to worry because they were his friends. They were speechless and could not form any words in mind as they watched their star player walking and talking to two unlikely very different people in their school. Little did they know the smoky activities they share with Mother Nature on days like that. John seemed content to share his Marijuana on them than to his burnout friends now. He guessed the new company around was a fresh change for him.

Although their friendship was beginning to surface, the romances in between them was kept secret. John would intentionally walk by Claire's locker to find her and wink at her. She'd blush and smile while her friends continue talking oblivious to the secret affair they share. At lunch, Andy would slide a note in Allison's locker or on her lunch table while he walked passed with nonchalance. Whatever was on that note, she always smiled and Andy notices almost immediately.

Sometimes, just before practice, he'd excuse himself to jog around as his warm-up routine. In reality, he would just go sneak at the back of the gymnasium to find Allison already there waiting for him. She was grateful for this as she gets to see her boyfriend wearing the very tight required uniform which clearly outlined his bulge. She never tells him because he always came crashing onto her. His lips hungry. It was better that way. She figured she'd tell him soon when she's ready.

And when they arrive home, they spend their nights talking on the telephone telling each other's secrets and discovering more fron each other. It was like a journey they both are on and enjoying the hell of it.

Both couple had different ways to reach each other. Claire would sometimes visit to John's shop class. Brian was his partner there now to help him on other projects which helped him a great deal. And because of this, Brian would cover for them as they escape and make out somewhere unseen from the public: boiler room, supply closet, the basement, the johns in the men's room, the johns in the girl's room, under the bleachers, in the parking lot when all of the people are still inside the building. Claire liked the way John touched her but she still wasn't able to give him her virginity. At the first few times, she was the one always holding back still scared. But when they progressed onto sneaking to other places, John was already the one halting them to her surprise. She knows he's been holding it in for her and thought it was unfair to have him hot and bothered and then coming to nothing. She had to do something.

One day, she ditched her friends and looked for Allison. It took a great deal of walking for her when she spotted her talking to Andy. She watched them at first while she noticed the people around them looking surprised and speaking in hushed tones while they passed. She just smiled. If they only knew.

She approached them and was greeted with smiles.

"So I have this crazy idea and I think you guys will love it..."
