Author's Note/Disclaimer;

Hi readers! Few little things to help with the story...:

This B.S story is based during the movie and about a year or so after the events in my first B.S fic. If you haven't read my previous story 'Oh What a Tangled Web...' then you may want to leave this story first and read that one, otherwise this fic may confuse you a bit. However, if you have read my first one, then welcome back readers! Sorry the sequel took so long to begin I've been taking a very long break due to writer's block... But I'm back now!

Story is rated 'T' for language, violence, and god-knows what else... but no smut, like the last one (Sorry to any Smut fans but I cannot write this stuff). Fic is a Connor/OC though there may be a tinsie-winsie but of Murphy/OC, since I've realised there was a little bit of that in the last one.

I do not own any of the characters you recognize from the B.S movie, only my own OC's - Grace, Jade, and any other unrecognizable character you may discover. Also, link to OC's appearances and what-not are on profile, so have a look as they will help with the story.

Anywho, that's all from me but I do hope you enjoy the story. Review, Favourite, or Follow the story if you can... it would mean a lot. Thanks!

~...~...~...March 17th, 1998...~...~...~
~...South Boston...~

"But you have to come," I rolled my eyes and fell down onto the couch, letting Jade continue with her pleads. "It's Saint Patrick's day! Everyone's going!"

"Are you even Irish?" I laughed, moving the phone to my left hand when the right started to ache; We'd been talking for a while.

Jade paused for a second. "No." I smirked knowingly. "But my Grandpa is! So I guess that means I am... sort of."

It was Friday, 17th of March. Or as most people knew it; Saint Patrick's Day. Now I wasn't Irish or in any way part Irish, I'd never celebrated the Holiday either... not massively anyway. Wearing a green hat that they gave out to every student one day in school didn't really come under 'Celebrating'. And as far as I knew it my best friend, Jade, wasn't Irish either... obviously I was wrong. She'd been begging me to go out with her and a few friends tonight for a week now and I wasn't exactly eager to do it. I'd never been the go-out-and-party type, but unfortunately for me she was.

"Jade..." I groaned, only to be cut off.

"No! C'mon you never come out with us! Please!"

I rolled my eyes and paused in thought for a moment.

Sure, I hadn't been out in a very long time, not for a few months at least. But I wasn't a very big drinker. Neither was I the type to go out and have a wild night with my best friend and her girlfriends, not that there was anything wrong with any of them. They were all good fun and all - but I wasn't. Far from it actually. But I loved Jade to pieces, we'd been through everything together - High School, heartbreaks, graduation, job-searching, and moving out of our parents houses and into the big bad world of South Boston. So if Jade wanted me to go out this badly, then out I would go.

I sighed and clenched my eyes shut, knowing what was to come. "Fine."

The long and very high pitched scream that echoed through the phone caused me to hold it away from my ear, or risk my ear-drum bursting.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"It's fine," I laughed, re-opening my eyes. "But after this I get to stay home and do my own thing for a good few weeks."

"Deal, deal." Jade rushed out; She was probably just excited to know that I was actually coming out.

There was a loud double-knock at the door and I turned my head, narrowing my eyes in confusion; I didn't get many visitors.

"Jade, I'll have to call you back." I told her, moving to my feet.

"Fine, but I'm coming to get you at 8:00 tonight, wear something hot." She replied, causing me to roll my eyes.

"Can't guarantee it. Later bitch."

"Bye slut."

After placing the phone back on it's holder I made my way towards the wooden door, unlatching it before slowly pulling it open; This was Boston, I couldn't be too careful with my safety. Especially since our crime-rates had gone up.

Thankfully, though, what I found on the other side was no burglar or rapist; Quite the opposite actually.

"Jamie." I smiled, nodding at my neighbour in greeting.

Jamie Hillard had been my neighbour for a good few months now, and I'd been the first in the building to give him a nice welcome. The boy, or man I suppose, was at least nineteen years old and one of the nicest guys I'd met. And considering the area Belle and I lived in, that was saying something. And since we'd met he'd become a regular visitor to my apartment. Not in the sex-type way, though I had a sneaking suspicion that's how many passing neighbours viewed our relationship; Our relationship was strictly friend-based. Even though Jade repeatedly told me he felt differently and was only trying to get out of the 'friend-zone'.

It wasn't that Jamie was unattractive, he had his own pro's and con's like every other male I'd met in my life. This male however had short dark-brown hair, brown eyes, and a thin build. He was good-looking and I knew that one day he would find a nice girl, most likely quiet like he was, and settle down with her. They'd have that white-picket fence relationship including the family dog; This is what my life had become now, figuring out the relationship outcomes of nearly every person I'd met. Besides, I hadn't had anything even come close to a relationship since Connor, who I hadn't seen in nearly a year and never spoke of. Not even to Jade.

"Hey Grace." Jamie greeted, fingering his belt-loops. "How's it going?"

I shrugged. "So-so. Have a busy evening planned tonight, what about you? Doing anything exciting for St Patty's?"

Jamie shook his head, leaning against the wall beside my door. "Not really, I'm not Irish so I don't really celebrate it. Looks like another quiet night in with my TV."

"Be grateful, I'd love to do that tonight. If I could join you I would but," I shook my head apologetically.

"Hey I understand," He assured. "Next time?"

"Of course. Guess I'll see you, wish me luck."

Jamie chuckled. "Good luck Grace." He said before turning and walking down the hall.

After he'd disappeared from view I closed the door and turned to lean against it. I stared at my bedroom door in irritation, knowing I'd have to find something nice to wear tonight, or let Jade choose for me when she got here; Something I wasn't enthusiastic about.

Groaning, I quickly latched my front door before heading towards my bedroom. "Here we go." I muttered.

~...~...~...~...~...~...~

I continued to stare absentmindedly out the cab window, drowning out the laughter coming from the other girls.

Jade had picked me up at eight just like she promise, also bringing her three other friends along with her. They were decent girls, slightly on the slutty side, but decent in personality; Though I could tell just what kind of girls they were. With their short skirts and dresses and well thought out hairstyles, I could tell they were Jade's type of friend from the first meet. Wild, promiscuous, didn't care what anybody thought of them - not counting male attention. And while the girls were nice enough, I found myself unable to drink cheap wine with them on our cab journey to Jade's Grandfathers bar, instead choosing to focus on the outside world.

"Grace!"

I jumped and turned my head towards the girls to find Jade watching me with slight worry. The other three were talking amongst themselves.

"You okay?" My best friend questioned, eyes narrowed.

"Of course, why'd you ask?" I reassured, lightly shaking my head.

Jade shrugged and quickly glanced back at her friends before turning back towards me. "Just asking, need to make sure my soul-mate's having a good time." She smiled, wrapping an arm around my shoulder and tugging me into her.

I laughed. "I'm good, just haven't been out in a while is all."

Jade nodded in understanding and I felt the cab slow to a stop. The driver looked back at us and Jade quickly dug through her purse, searching for her money. Meanwhile I climbed out of the cab and looked up at the bar; My heart immediately pounded in my chest.

Author's Note;

I hope you enjoyed this first chapter and I'm sorry if I've disappointed anyone as the boys are not in the first chapter, but they will be in the next chapter. Also hope it doesn't seem too rushed as I tried my best to spread this out.

Anyway please Review, Favourite and Follow if you can it would mean a lot. Thanks!
