Okay so this has been over a year in the making. The truth is this story has been sitting in my documents folder for a long time now and I have decided that it was time to purge myself of all my writings by posting them all. Good, bad, mediocre, doesn't matter because they are all going up. Hope you guys don't mind and if you do I really don't care.
Title: Just Another Day in Pleasantville
Pairings: Tommy/Merton duh everyone knows I'm a slash girl
Chapter: Less than a lot but more than a few.
Warnings: Really doesn't reveal much about the show so there really aren't any but like I said it is slash. Don't like don't read and don't complain.
Chapter One
The bell had rung nearly five minutes ago and Merton had yet to make it to class. It wasn't as if he was purposely late, he got caught with a the Physics teacher who wanted him to tutor a not so good student. He tried to say no and get out of it but the teacher wouldn't stop pressuring him until he said yes. Finally, having no choice but to agree to tutor, the teacher finally let him go and allowed Merton to make his way to his Philosophy class.
He was almost to the door when a strong arm grabbed him from behind and he felt himself being pulled into an empty room.
"I have pepper spray and I'm not afraid to use it." Merton yelled only to be greeted by the sound of laughter, "Tommy."
"Sorry couldn't resist."
"Shouldn't you be in, oh I don't know, class."
"Don't worry I got a hall pass." Tommy grinned, showing the green hall pass to Merton before putting it back in his pocket. "Besides, I got History this period and Mr. White doesn't even know when students go missing."
"Still, you shouldn't be missing class; especially this close-" Merton tried to say only to be cut off by Tommy with a mind blowing kiss. He should have been upset that Tommy was kissing him just to shut him up but with Tommy kissing him the way that he was he really didn't care.
"You know Merton you talk way too much."
"Just chalk it up as one of the great reasons you love me."
"God help me I do." Tommy laughed as he leaned forward to kiss Merton again.
"So was there a reason you pulled me into this empty classroom or did you just want an excuse to ravish me senseless." Merton asked when they pulled apart again and embraced in a hug.
"Actually I need to talk to you about something."
"Oh no, there's a new evil in Pleasantville."
"Merton-"
"I knew it wouldn't stay quiet for long." Merton continued to ramble. "Is it a zombie, we haven't had one of those before…or maybe it's a merman."
"And how exactly is a merman evil."
"I don't know but stranger things have happened plus I've always wanted to meet one."
"Well sorry to disappoint you but it's not a merman, it's Lori."
"Lori's the new evil."
"No Lori's not evil…again." Tommy smirked, "Lori's coming home today."
"Oh right." Merton nodded, remembering that Lori was away on two-week cruise with her family on vacation. "She is coming home today but I fail to see why that would be so important to cause you to freak out."
"Because Merton when she left, her two best friends weren't secretly in a relationship with each other."
"And-"
"And now we are." Tommy replied but realized that Merton didn't understand what he was trying to insinuate. He come to see that Merton could be a little slow on the uptake of a situation when it didn't involve the supernatural. "We have to tell Lori about us."
"Okay now I get it…no wait, what?"
"We have to tell Lori-"
"No I heard that part but I fail to see why we have to tell Lori."
"Because she's our best friend who would kill us if we didn't tell her."
"We can't tell her about us Tommy."
"And why not, embarrassed about telling her that you love me?"
"Have you seen me Tommy." Merton stated pointed to himself, "Does it look like I'm easily embarrassed?"
"Well no…but it doesn't explain why you don't what her to know."
"How can you explain this?" Merton shrieked, "Hey Lori, know you had a thing for Tommy and I had a thing for you but it turns out we actually have a thing for each other, sorry."
Tommy rolled his eyes at his sarcastic and dramatic boyfriend, "She'll understand."
"She'll freak."
"She won't."
"She will."
"Look, I'm not going to argue about this anymore. We won't tell her now but sooner or later we will, we can't hide this from her forever."
"How about until after graduation?"
"Merton-"
"Okay fine, we'll tell her…soon just…give me some time to think of a way to tell her please."
"Just don't take too much time okay."
Merton nodded as he gave Tommy one last kiss before walking out of the classroom. By now he was fifteen minutes late to class and needed to make a good reason as to why he was so for now all thoughts of telling Lori was pushed out of his mind.
"What do you want?"
Valeria turned to see a small but brawny man standing behind her. She knew exactly who he was but by the look on his face had no clue as to who she used to be. "You know what I want, the real question is are you going to give it to me?"
"I will, for a price." the man growled as he waved his hand and a small table appeared before them filled with different objects. Valeria immediately spotted what she was looking for, a small golden locket. Not just any locket, this locket was gold with a white diamond jewel right in the middle of it. The man noticed her eyes gazing at it and snatched it up in his hand.
"How much will it cost me? Valeria sneered at the man's smirk.
"Nothing."
The pair turned around to see a man dressed in black coming towards them, wearing a sneer on his face. The dealer bowed in the presence of the man before looking back at Valeria. "Prince."
"Subject." the man spoke back and motioned for the man to stand back up, "Back to the locket, you will give it to her for nothing."
"What-"
"Are you unaware of who this is?"
"I don't care who she is, I don't do freebies." the short man growled as he looked back at the woman.
"Not even for the fair princess Allonia."
"No, it couldn't be…that's impossible. She's been exiled, forbidden to ever return."
"Oh but it is." Valeria smiled at the use of her real name, "And if you don't give me what I want, I'm going to kill you."
"Here, it's yours." the man mumbled quickly as he threw the locket in her hands and disappeared from sight, taking the table and everything else with him.
"Oh how I miss spreading fear through someone's body, it makes me crave my old life."
"Allonia, what are you doing here?"
"Now is that any way to talk to flesh and blood my dear Rajh."
"We stop being flesh and blood when you started going against us."
"I didn't turn against you." she smiled, "I simply embraced the person I was always supposed to be."
"You can't classify yourself as a person, especially not after the bad things you've done."
"It's in my nature, get over it."
"You got what you came for." the prince sneered as he walked up to Valeria and pushed her so hard that she fell to the ground, "Now go…and don't ever come back."
"There once was time you would kill to protect me brother and now you simply want to kill me."
"I do not want to kill you Allonia but I will if you come back here again."
"Don't worry about me, I won't come back until it's my time to rule."
"That will never happen."
"We'll see about that."
Valeria said nothing else as her brother walked away from her until he disappeared from sight. Looking down at the locket in her hand, she smiled as she got up from the ground and flew away. She had a werewolf to find.
Merton made it through the day without anymore thoughts of Lori and headed directly home after school avoiding Tommy the best he could. He knew Tommy would be mad at him for doing so but he didn't want to have another confrontation with his boyfriend about telling someone about them; even if they were a close friend.
Sighing, he walked to his room and noticed his room was darker than usual. He threw his bag to the floor and went to turn on a light when he noticed a figure sitting on his bed.
"Oh my God," he screamed as the figure stood up.
"Hello Merton, miss me."
And there it is the first chapter. Hope it was worth the wait.
