AN: I do not own these characters. No matter how much I would love to own
JJ, I, unfortunatly, do not. So please don't sue me!!!
Anyways... on to the story!!
A LATE NIGHT TALK
It was around two in the morning when JJ Pryor woke up. He glanced around the darkened room. Will was sleeping soundly. Only once-in-a-while would he make a noise. JJ smiled, wondering what interesting dream Will was having now.
JJ layed back in bed and stared at the ceiling. It had been three months since he and Beth had broken up and he was still pretty upset. He understood now that it was partially, ok mostly, his fault. Just then, JJ heard a noise, like someone walking down the stairs. Curious as to who was up this late, JJ got up and followed the person down the stairs and into the kitchen. There, he found Meg getting a glass of water. "What's wrong? Couldn't sleep?" he asked her. "Jeez JJ! You startled me!" Meg sat down at the table and JJ joined her. "No, I couldn't sleep. I keep thinking about Luke. I really miss him, you know?"
JJ glanced at her knowingly. "Yeah, I know what you mean. I feel the same way about Beth."
"Is that why you're up? Were you thinking about her?" Meg asked quietly. "Yeah, that and I heard you making a racket coming down the stairs." He smiled. They sat in silence for a while, thinking about their predicaments. "Why does love have to be so complicated? Can't it just be cut and dry, no maybes?" Meg asked. "Then where would all the fun be?" JJ asked back. "' Love is a perky elf dancing a merry little jig and then suddenly he turns on you with a miniature machine gun.'" Meg silently giggled. "Where'd ya hear that?" "It was in this book I read last year for English class. It kind of pertains to the situation, right?"
"Yeah, it does. It's the truth too." She paused. "JJ?" "Yeah?"
"Do you think you and Beth will ever get back together?" Meg asked carefully. "I honestly do not know. I did something really, really bad in her eyes, so I don't know. But, I'm not going to wait to find out. I'm going to try to see if I can go out with other people right now. Do you think you and Luke will get back together?"
"I don't know either. We have too many things that are different. We don't like the same music types and we don't like to do the same things." "But Meg, most of the time, that's how most relationships are. You have to get past what you don't have in common and find the things you have in common. You must have something in commmon with him, right?"
"I'm not really sure. We never really discussed what we had in common." "Well, there ya go." JJ smiled. "Now you have something to figure out."
"Wow, thanks JJ!" I'm going to go call him tomorrow and see if we can get together." "Good idea, but now I'm going to go back to bed. Figuring out your relationship is tiring! Good-night Meg." JJ said standing up. "Good-night JJ," Meg called as he started to walk up the stairs. While going up the stairs, JJ started to think. He looked at the clock and it read 3:10am. *Wow, I've been up for a while!* When he walked into the room he shared with Will, he saw Will still fast asleep. JJ walked over and kissed Will on the forehead. He then hopped into bed and began to stare at the picture on his bedside table. "God Beth, I'm sorry!" he whispered. "I didn't mean to hurt you! I thought we were done for good! We didn't do anything, I swear!" JJ said as he began to cry.
