The Story of Us

Chapter 9: Goodbyes, Breakups, & Makeups

By: WoopWoop87

A/N: Okay so I wrote this chapter in the car yesterday coming home from Maryland and then I read 'The Queen of Hearts' (which by the way is really good) and I realized that there were a couple similarities, so I was like okay I'll take that part out it's not that big of a deal but then I realize that I need that part!  So, I would just like to aznJEDI13, sorry for any similarities.

Anyway, this was the hardest chapter for me to write because I love Jesse so much *runs off and cries*.

Going into the 9th grade was a new adventure in its self.  The whole team had received scholarships to Eden Hall, a rich school that excelled in sports.  But one duck was not returning this year, Jesse Hall.

"What's wrong?" Guy asked running up to the lake that held so many memories.

"I'm moving," Jesse sighed.

"What? Where?" Guy asked not wanting to lose one of his best friends.

"I'm moving to New Jersey." (Why'd I pick New Jersey?  Because we driving through it at the time.)

"But Eden Hall, it had dorms you can stay there."

"Well I'm coming back, Bombay got a scholarship for Terry too since he did team USA last year so we're going to settle in Jersey until next year."

"I'm going to miss you," Guy sighed, "Driving through walls wont be the same without you," they laughed.

"Don't be getting into too much trouble I still want you to be here when I come back."

"Bye," Guy said pulling Jesse into a non-slashy hug.

"Bye," Jesse replied.

It was the first day of school and the remaining original ducks were meeting at Adam Banks house.  Guy and Connie of course came together but Connie had something else on her mind.  "Guy," she began, "how long have we been going out?"
            "4 years," Guy replied happily."

"That's what I wanted to talk about," she sighed, "We lived 4 years of our life as Guy and Connie but what about the real individual us, nobody knows us that way."

"What are you getting at?" He stopped.

"I think we should just be friends."

"But I don't want to be just friends I want to be your boyfriend." He said grabbing onto her arm.

            "Guy don't make this harder then it already is," she said skating away.

            "Then why are you doing this?" he asked skating after her.

 "I need space."

Averman and Goldberg made fun of Banks wearing a preppy tie and sweater vest.  "Aw, Banksie ready for his first day of school?" Averman asked pinching his cheek.

"Is that a clip on?" Goldberg asked tugging at his tie.

"Ow, NO!" Banks said as Goldberg began to choke him.

"Here comes the two love birds," Averman said as Connie and Guy rolled by.

"Connie wait!" Guy said following her.

"Did I miss something?" Charlie asked as they rolled by.

"Let's catch up," Fulton said as they skated after them.

"Connie, Connie wait!" Guy said skating beside her.  Just then Goldberg and Charlie veered off.

"What happened?" Banks asked only to be ignored.

Goldberg and Charlie finally returned to the group as they entered the auditorium through the back and knocked over the curtain, "We're the Ducks," Charlie said to the whole school.

It had been about a week into the new school year, Adam was now on varsity and it was time for the JV team's first game.  They came out dominating with a score of 9-0 at the end of the 2nd period.  But after their arrogance kicked in the opposing team came back tying the game.

After the game they shook hands with the opposing teams, "Hey number 00," a girl yelled from the stands.

Guy turned to her as she waved him over to her.  Guy skated over to her grabbing Connie's attention.

"You played pretty good out there." She said with a smile.

"Thanks," Guy smiled running his fingers through his hair, "but we kinda sucked."

"Well maybe a little," they laughed.  Connie felt a jealous urge come over her.  Her and Guy would always smile and laugh together like that it made her so uncontrollably jealous and she hated it.

"I'm Nikki," she said reaching out her hand.

"Guy," he said shaking her hand.

"Maybe we could get—."

"I kinda am already with someone, sort of, well we're working things out," Guy said not ready to move on, "Look, I gotta go," he said following the team into the locker room.

Charlie, who didn't like the new coach began to complain, "We played like a, starts with a 'W."

"Wussy?" Averman finished.

"Correct."

The rest of the team lended their voices in complaints.  "Look guys, we let down, that's all," Guy said, the voice of reason.

"You let down," Connie said teed off that Guy was moving on, I played hard."

Coach Orien came in and yelled at the team after he left Guy looked through his things, "Where are my clothes?" He asked.  The Varsity/JV rivalry had began.

The rivalry between the Varsity and the JV had just began to brew, first there were the wet clothes in the shower, then the liquid nitrogen and finally the dinner at the country club.  Now the JV team had to show up the varsity and this was their perfect plan, their plan was to cover the varsity team with the principal's ants.

Guy and Connie sat in the tree for the look out, it was still rather strange to be around each other after the break up and Guy's flirting but they still promised to be friends.  Guy looked through the binoculars through the window to direct the pipes.  "A little to the left," Guy said into his walkie talkie.

"Let me look," Connie whined.

"No, keep look out," he replied.

She paused thinking about a way to distract him and get the binoculars away, "That ninja look makes you look, oh how do you say it?" She asked him her mouth right up to his ear.

"Ruggedly Handsome?" he asked with a rather cocky tone moving the binoculars away.

"Incredibly stupid," she concluded.

"Very funny," Guy said looking through the goggles.  "Okay, okay they're good," he said to Connie.

"Release the hungry fellow," she said into the walkie talkie.

"How do you know if their hungry?"

"Shut up."

"Okay."

She squinted looking into the window, "oh my God, this is so funny," Guy wasn't paying attention to the prank they had just played, he was thinking about how much he wanted Connie back.

"You know that French thing you got going on there makes you look—." Guy said now his mouth to her ear.  She looked at him, his face an inch away from hers.

"What?" She asked, "Extremely bad?"  She asked sarcastically.

"No, Amazingly Beautiful," he said beginning to kiss her intensely.

They couldn't deny how much chemistry or sexual tension they had.  And both of them still really like one another.

Guy pulled away for a second, "so what did you think about my ninja look?"  he asked with a smile.

"Idiotic," she said pulling him back into the kiss.

All of a sudden a flashlight was shined on them, "Ooo!" They could hear, "Guy and Connie sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G." Russ began to sing.

Surprised Connie pushed Guy off of her as he lost his balance and fell out of the tree.  "Ow!" he yelled.

"Shhhh!" The rest of the team warned.

"Oh my God Guy, I'm so sorry!" Connie said climbing out of the tree.

"I'll be okay," he said rubbing his head.

"C'mon let's get out of here," Julie said as they began to walk away.

Guy put Connie in a head lock type position as they followed the team, "so we're over this whole breakup thing, right?" he asked her.

"Definitely," she said putting her arm around his waist.
