Dear Duck Community:
Goalie Luv

A/N- Eep, this one was short. Guess that's what happens when I write while I'm half asleep in health class. Who's the next ranter? Any suggestions?

To the Duck Community:

I don't really know what to say. There's not much that bothers me about how people write me into their fanfics. I don't mind being studious, and of course I don't mind being friendly and understanding. But...

WHY does everyone insist on giving me a boyfriend? Is having a single girl on the Ducks so awful? Nobody tries to give all of the guys girlfriends...

People pair me with Scooter. I like Scooter, I really do. But just as a friend. We study together, we talk, we hang out. That doesn't automatically mean we're going out. Yeah, sure, he did kiss me after the JV-Varsity game...

I said we aren't dating, I didn't say we never were. It just didn't work out.

People pair me with Banks. Uh... no. He's the one that had the crush on me, and that didn't last very long at all. We're friends, and not even especially good friends. He's just not my type.

People pair me with Portman. Don't get me wrong, Portman's a great guy and I love to spend time with him. But he's not really looking for a girlfriend right now, and besides, he's got almost every girl in the school drooling over him after that stripping stunt. I'm not the type to compete. And he's a little too... forward for my tastes, anyway.

People pair me with Guy. One does not start going out with one's best friend's ex-boyfriend! Not this soon! Enough said.

I'm still waiting for someone to write me into a relationship with Connie. (Oh, I hope that didn't encourage anyone.) I'm going to say it now, so I won't have to say it later, I've dated enough to be sure I'm definitely straight.

Bottom line is, I'm just not interested in a boyfriend right now. But no, everywhere I look, it's me paired with somebody! Always!

I don't know which annoys me worse, the excess of female hockey players showing up and ending up in love with a Duck, or the fact that if they don't show up I'll get paired with someone.

Long live singles.

Sincerely, Julie the Cat
