Title: History Repeats Itself
Summary: Basically a story about the past. Kirsten and Jimmy are the main characters. Jimmy's just moved into the OC and is having trouble settling into school. Will Kirsten help? As the title says this is showing how history tends to repeat itself.
Pairing: Kirsten Jimmy
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the OC characters. My year advisor IS called Mrs Kim tho....weird stuff but I guess it's not as if the last name is unpopular or whatever. I think it would be best if I just move on silently....yes.....mmhm.....I think I will be going now... looks around nervously before running out of the door.
Chapter 2: Camp note
"But Mrs Turow..."
"No buts Jerry. Why are you so interested in Mister Cooper's attendance to this school camp?"
"Well Mrs Turow, as he's just moved to this school I thought that it would be good if he went to this camp. To get to know everyone better, you know?"
"Still no." Mrs Turow looked at Jimmy who was hanging back and hadn't said anything yet, she furrowed her brow and addressed him,
"Mister Cooper, are you going to say anything? This is about you after all, you shouldn't let Jerry do all your talking. Makes it look like you don't care about the camp." Jerry stepped out of the shadows and the look on his face was not the look Mrs Turow expected him to have. He had an air of indignation,
"Mrs Turow, if you think that I have voluntarily let Jerry take over..."
"Well then Mister Cooper, explain to me why you have involuntarily let him take over."
"I thought that if you were to be addressed by a student who came here for longer than I have you might just think about listening. But I see that it isn't working."
"How observant of you." Mrs Turow shot back icily. Jimmy looked down and then looked back up with a look of determination.
"Mrs Turow, if you don't let me go to this camp you will need more than an icy stare to make what my parents are going to do to you to go away. I may be backing off now but if they come into this I have a feeling that you will be retiring early." Jimmy let this sink in before turning to wink at Jerry.
There was a shocked silence from the desk and then a scratching of pen on paper. Jimmy turned around to see Mrs Turow writing furiously on a piece of paper. Her expression was unreadable, her wrinkly lips were pulled back and her mouth glued shut. She looked as if she'd just sucked three lemons in a row instead of her usual one.
She ripped the page she was scribbling on off her pad of paper and gave it to Jimmy,
"Give that to Ms Riley on the bus." She then swivelled her chair around so she wouldn't have to see them. Jimmy glanced at the paper and then he nodded at Jerry and they walked out.
When they were outside Jerry let out a whoop and jumped off the ground. Unfortunately he fell when he landed. On Sarah. Who then fell. On the ground. With Jerry on top of her. Jimmy just looked at them, the tangle of legs, arms and books. Sarah had been carrying some text books and Jerry had hit his unmentionables (got that from a book =P) on them.
Kirsten was beside Sarah but managed not to get tangled in the Sarah/Jerry ball. Kirsten and Jimmy looked at each other and cracked up laughing. You could hear swears from inside the Sarah/Jerry ball, most of them were from Sarah who thought she'd broken her nail.
"Get the f off me!" (Sarah)
"I'm sure if you stop struggling we can get out of this without too many bruises." (Jerry)
"Stop struggling! I want to struggle! I will always struggle!" (Sarah)
"Even against my irresistible charm?" (Jerry) A yell came after that from Jerry when Sarah elbowed him. Hard. And without meaning to got his unmentionables (I'm addicted to that word!).
"$H!T!!!!!" (If you can't see that it says the 's' word.) (By the way that's from Jerry)
By now Kirsten and Jimmy had managed to stop laughing so hard that they could talk to each other more or less civilly.
"I'm Kirsten."
"Ji-haha-mmy."
"You going to camp?" Jimmy decided to give up talking to, instead, concentrate on the art of laughing so he held up the note to Kirsten. She read it quickly and smiled,
"Cool." Jerry and Sarah had managed to untangle themselves and now were yelling at each other. Jerry's injured unmentionables (lol) were forgotten in the heat of the argument. Jimmy finally stopped laughing and shared another look with Kirsten before they both walked over to their quarrelling friends and managed to drag them away from each other.
As they dragged their respective yelling friends away they both looked back. Just not at the same time. Kirsten looked back and then, seeing only his back turned back around with a sigh. Jimmy then turned, having finally calmed Jerry down (who was now bending over in pain) and saw only Kirsten's blonde hair and her back so he turned back around.
Jimmy and Kirsten both liked each other but what could they do about it? Their friends argued 24-7 and seemed to enjoy arguing with the other. If only they knew that the camp that was on Monday (it was Friday) would give them a shove in the right direction.
AN: Wheee...unmentionables! Lol, I know that in the show I totally don't want for Kirsten and Jimmy to reunite but in this story Jimmy=Ryan and Kirsten=Marissa. So Jimmy and Kirsten IN THE PAST is good. Oh well...Unmentionables! ROFL!
