In the Jesse lover one I'll make Paul a total badass hehe. til then im tryin to keep the human being in him. I appreciate the advice but...i dont know its just hard for me to have someone do something in a story without a reason you know? Im just tryin to stay true to paul's character.

I mean, i AM a romantic, but i dont xactly believe in the happily ever after thing. Life is full of drama. shrugs

whoo that was a lot of reviews. you guys are so nice :P

A/N: Fine fine, I rewrote the end of the second chapter to make it more believable. hope it's better now. haha the democratic convention was on this week. YEA!! go kerry! You guys gotta watch it. Apathy is the worst thing you could ever commit (in case you dont know apathy is not caring). Vote or DIE!!

After that my mom, Andy, Jesse and I had a long talk. My mom wanted to "get to know him better". It was actually more of a series of lies from me than an actual conversation, but whatever. We eventually ate dinner and Brad found out about his new roommate. He wasn't exactly pleased, but I think he saved his anger for me. When he confronted me I did not tell him to shove it like I wanted to. I didn't want to piss him off even more and have him take it out on Jesse. I just told him that I was sorry and he should take it up with his dad. "Besides," I said. "It won't be so bad. It won't kill you to be nice to someone and even let them stay in your room." And before he could respond I walked off.


School was...well I wasn't exactly sure what to think about how it went. It was definitely interesting though. Haha.

When I arrived at school I was getting some pretty raised eyebrows. And not just from CeeCee and Adam. Loads of the girls at the mission were eyeing me suspiciously. Obviously jealous that I was given the privilage of just being next to the obviously the hottest guy in Carmel. Actually, I think I was kind of enjoying it. Even better, they were just realizing that Jesse was off the radar. I, however, have known this for quite some time. You know how it is, when you like something a lot and then all the sudden it goes big. You sit back and say "oh yeah, duh. I've liked that since forever."

Haha, well that was kind of how it was. All the sudden everyone was appreciating something that I had been obsessing about for so long. I knew they all were thinking the same thing: "Who's this guy? And what is he doing with Suze?" But none of them had the guts to ask me.

But CeeCee didn't seem to mind. She wanted to know. Especially when she heard me call him Jesse.

She grabbed me and pulled me aside. "This is Jesse?!" she asked. "I thought he had already graduated."

I gave her a look that had 'shut up' all over it and then whispered to her, "Look, don't tell anybody. He's doing something for a newspaper or something. It's supposed to be a secret, so he can't really talk about it."

"But, I thought...I thought...he was a ghost," she whispered.

I gave her a cold look. I hate lying to her, I really do. But I had to. And from what I could see, it looked like I wouldn't have to lie about as much anymore. I mean, Jesse was alive now. That was one less thing to lie about to her. "Don't be ridiculous," I said.

"B- But," CeeCee stammered. "I know what I saw." She stood there confidently and crossed her arms.

"Look," I said as sincerley as I could. "I was out of it that night. I'm pretty positive I hit my head. A million things were happening...all at once. I don't even remember what happened, let alone what I said."

"You telling me that all this weird stuff has been nothing?"

"I don't know what to tell you," I said, shrugging.

She huffed. I was pretty sure she didn't believe me at that point, but then her attitude completely changed. "So..." she said. "Do tell. What's going on between you guys? Is it okay to talk about it now? I mean, is it still complicated? I don't want to pry..."

I laughed. If she didn't believe me, she didn't seem to care. Of course I couldn't blame her. I mean, just look at him. "Maybe later," I said pulling her back over to Jesse who Adam had started interrogating. I guess he decided he better take his chance to get some answers while I wasn't in the vicinity. CeeCee looked reluctant, but went easy enough. It might have had something to do with the fact that Adam was over there....

"How come I've never seen you before?" I heard Adam ask.

"Come on Adam. Give him a break it's his first day," I told him.

He gave me a defensive look and was just about to blurt something else out when I walked over to him and whispered, "Ask CeeCee. She'll fill you in later."

He gave me a surprised look but accepted it.

"So what's your schedule?" CeeCee asked.

"Um," I said. "They're having problems getting his records so they don't know what classes to put him in. They said they need proof," or whatever that he passed a class before they can put him in the next one. Father Dom suggested that he be in most of my classes because I'm in Student Council and it's my civic duty or something to help new kids. Plus I already know him. So he's just going to be in like, random classes and won't really get any credit until they get his records. It's weird. Apparently this happens all the time, although schools don't exactly admit that."

"So he's in your homeroom then?" CeeCee asked.

"Yeah. For now anyway."

"Cool," she said. "Well...we'd better get going we're going to be late."

"Yeah, I'll see you guys later. I'm supposed to show Jesse around some first." And I planned on doing just that...but then before I could even turn around and CeeCee and Adam could prance along Paul walked up beside me apparently not noticing the new member of our little group.

A/N: Dun dun dun. lol dont you just love cliffys? I do. I mean, how else are you gonna end a chappy? It has to be a pretty good ending if it's not a cliffy to pass the test. I'll update soon I promise. AND OH MY GOSH! did you SEE the convention? Morgan Freeman was there! Well...at least his voice was, dunno if he actually was. Probly though. And Ben Affleck! hehe i freaked out when I saw (or in morgan freeman's case, heard) them. I was like oh my god, its ben!! You can go onto c-span .org to watch the speeches if you missed em. Clinton's was absolutely freaking awesome! lol ok shutting now. Hope you liked my story.
