Disclaimer: first and second chapter but here it goes I don't own anything pertaining to Pearl Harbor I just added my own little twist to it. It does really kill me that I don't own Ben and Josh, but if I owned Josh boy that would be fun.
A/n this is the third chapter of my story. I would like to thank my reviewers, it is up to nine now yay. I'm sorry to all the people who tried to review and didn't get to because I have the only signed review thing on but now it is off. Well in this chapter they graduate and the army air corps (thank you for correcting my mistake is it right now and the person should know who they are.) Oh YAY sorry for the corny chapter tittles I couldn't think of anything.
Ok one more thing before I start on the story my chapter dedication. This chapter is dedicated to my dad because without him I would not be as great as I am now and he is always there for me and for just being a great dad I LOVE YOU LOTZ :) oh tear drop now on with the story.
The last few weeks went
by pretty fast. Now graduation was two weeks away. Rafe, Jordan and
Danny were all sitting on the dock of the lake talking.
"Hey
I got a question," Jordan said looking down at the water, "what
are we going to do after graduation?"
"Well I think
Danny and me were going to join the air corps -." Jordan cut off
Rafe before he could finish his sentence "and you guys will
leave me here in Tennessee without you and rot."
"No we would never leave you here to rot. We are going to figure out a way so that we are not separated from each other ok. And plus you think Rafe would leave you here without him or me to look after you? "Danny said reassuringly.
"Yeah
Danny is right anyways it not any fun with out you so perk up."
Rafe added.
"Did you just tell me to perk up you have been
hanging out with too many air headed girls" Jordan said
laughing.
"Have
not I have only been hanging out with you and Michelle "Rafe
said.
"You have been hanging out with Michelle a lot. Yeah I
been feeling a little neglected you know." Jordan said
jokingly
"Aww poor baby is fweeling nweglected" Rafe
said back in a babyish voice. Which made them all laugh. She just
told him to shut up as she got up to go in the house. They talked
about graduation as they walked to the house. Jordan put little input
on as since she knew that they would probably get be separated from
each other.
When they got to the house they walked in talking
like they always would but some thing was different. Instead of
walking into an empty house, they walked in to find Dillon McCawley
sitting at the table reading the newspaper.
"Oh hi kids what have you guys been up to these days?" He said.
"Umm nothing I thought you weren't due home until like three weeks from now?" Rafe said as he was sitting as was Jordan and Danny.
"Well I thought I would come home early for you guy's graduation. My baby is finally graduating." Dillon McCawley said.
"Dad I didn't think you still thought I was your baby I feel so loved" Rafe replied jokily.
"Rafe shut up, please. You do know Dad that if it weren't for me getting skipped up I would have still be here for another year at least." Jordan had said.
"Well, Danny, Jordan you want to go
flying?" Rafe asked the two.
Danny nodded, and Jordan said
"Yeah I'll be out in a sec. I need to put my stuff in my
room."
Rafe said okay as he and Danny walked out of the door.
Jordan walked upstairs and put her stuff away, and walked back
downstairs. She stopped in the kitchen and sat down next to her
father.
"Daddy, where is mom?" Jordan said looking
down at the table.
"Um she couldn't be here but she will be
here for Rafe and yours graduation. She would miss her only
daughter's graduation you know this right Jordana?" He said
this looking up from his newspaper.
"Oh yeah I was just
wondering I think I will go join Rafe and Danny now ok." And
with that she got up kissed her dad on the cheek.
You see Jordan
and her mom were never really close Jordan wasn't the girly
daughter that she wanted. Her mom wanted her to wear dresses and play
with dolls, but she'd rather wear overalls and work on a plane. She
would rather hang out with her older brothers and their friends then
go to a fancy party and wear a cocktail dress. Her mother
consistently tried to get her to wear a dress, but she hardly ever
would let her mom win that contentiously argument. Jordan wanted to
be that daughter her mom wanted, but she didn't want to change into
someone she wasn't. Jordan always acted like her mother's and
hers arguments never phased her but they hurt her she would probably
give up almost and thing to go back in time to be that daughter she
always wanted but she couldn't and she had to live with that fact.
Jordan finally reached the boys but they weren't flying, they
were in the lake.
"I thought we were going to go flying?" Jordan asked them
Danny answered her with "Oh we were, but Rafe changed his mind."
"Whatever I wanted to
fly though so in protest I won't go swimming" Jordan said, but
while saying this Rafe swam up and pulled her in the water. So she
splashed him in the face in return Rafe splashed her back and then
Danny some how got intertwined in it. They stopped when they heard a
voice saying, "Will you three ever stop acting like 10 year
olds." This voice belonged to Michelle Rafe's girlfriend.
Which was one of the few girlfriends of Rafe that didn't annoy
Jordan to the point that she wanted to kill them every time she was
around her, but this didn't mean that Jordan had actually like her
either. She could just tolerate her, and she wasn't that much of an
air head/prissy girl that thought they were better than everyone
was.
"Yeah eventually, but probably not in the near future,"
Rafe said as he was getting out of the lake.
"Hey Danny, Hey
Jordana how is it going?" She asked them as Rafe kissed her on
the cheek. They both said fine but Jordan added, "Don't call
me Jordana ok I have told you not to a million times."
"Yes
I know but that is your given name and you should be called by your
given name. I call everyone by his or her given name." She said
smirked as if she just told Jordan off.
"Now you're just contradicting yourself" Jordan said and Michelle got this look and her face like how could you. Then Jordan added to her statement "you just said that you call everyone by their given name right well you didn't call Danny by his given name. Unless his given name is Danny and it is not, unless I'm mistaken his given name would be Daniel. Am I right Danny?"
"You would
be right Jordan my given name just happens to be Daniel not Danny."
Danny said this with a smile on his face. Then Jordan got a smirk on
her face for just telling Michelle off for trying to tell her off.
"Well, I guess your right so I think I will start calling
you by Jordan though the person who started calling you that should
be hurt. Who would give a girl a nickname that is so boyish?"
She said this and Rafe turned to her and said "I was the one who
started to call her that."
"Oh sorry, but all I was
saying is it is a little too boyish for a girl." She said trying
to cover her up her little mistake of kind of insulting him. He just
replied with yeah I know that and he told her that his is going in to
get changed. They started walking to the house before Danny and
Jordan could get out of the lake, and when they did get out of the
lake and were on their way up to the house. Rafe was already ready
for his date. He waved goodbye and so did Michelle they did this as
they drove off. Jordan just rolled her eyes at that sight and Danny
couldn't help but laugh. After hours of talking and doing their
homework Danny asked Jordan something that he has wanted to ask her
for about a week now.
"Why don't you like Michelle?"
He asked (I bet you thought I was going to have him ask her
out!)
"She is kind of snot and she repeatedly calls me
Jordana when I tell her not to and she just tried to tell me off."
She said back to him and as she said this, her dad walked in and
proclaimed that he was going to go to bed so they said their
goodnight to him and went back to talking. Jordan looked up at one
particular and thought to her self-god he has gorgeous eyes and a
cute smile. Oh my god Jordan you can't be thinking this. This is
Danny for god's sake he is Rafe's best friend and your best
friend. They do say best friends make the best boyfriends. Damn it
Jordan why did you have to listen to Michelle when she said that.
Jordan snapped out of it and tried not to think of it again through
out the conversation, but it keeps coming into her head. About two
hours later Rafe walked in and joined the conversation and they
talked for like three more hours, and finally they all went to
bed.
Graduation
Graduation finally comes and Rafe and
Jordan's parents where there and so was Danny's mom. It was a
joyous day for they no longer had school to get in the way of their
fun and sleep time. Not all their problems were solved by not having
school. The deadline until Rafe and Danny had to leave was getting
closer and closer.
"What are we going do we can't leave Jordan here" Rafe said as he sat his suitcases on the porch.
"I don't know, but we can't just not go we always wanted to be pilots, and we can't give up are chance." Danny said gloomily.
"Yeah I know." Rafe said
looking as sad as he felt. Then Jordan comes out of the door with a
huge smile on her face.
"What are you smiling about?"
Danny and Rafe said almost said in unison.
"I found out a
way that we won't be separated that is what I'm smiling about."
She said back to them.
"What is it?" Rafe asked as they
followed her to the barn.
"I'm going to go with you two"
she said grinning.
"You can't you said it yourself that
girls can't be pilots" Danny said.
"Yeah, but they can
be nurses and I am pretty good at bandaging people since I been doing
that for you
guys since I was like seven."
"Your
right but to join you have to be at least twenty-one and last time I
checked you are not twenty-one you are only what sixteen five years
to young." Rafe said
"Yeah, but I can past for
twenty-one and plus I have already graduated high school, and you two
are not twenty-one either. I am almost seventeen too." She said
back to them with a smirk on her face.
"She has a point,
Rafe" Danny said looking at Rafe.
"Yeah she does,"
looking at Jordan Rafe, says, "So are you packed?" Jordan
nodded her head 'yes'. She hands them her suitcases to
carry.
"Hey Jordan there is only one fault in your plan."
Rafe said
"And what would that be?" Jordan asked
him
"What about Mom and Dad?" Rafe asked while placing
Jordan's suitcase in the truck of the taxi with his and
Danny's.
"Oh them I left them a five-page letter explaining
everything and told them not to worry about me, that I would be fine
blah, blah stuff like that, basically what you to did, but mine being
better and more in depth." She asked him as she got into the
taxi.
Rafe was amazed with how good she was at finding solutions
and making sure they worked.
They finally got to the train
station and were on their way to New Jersey where they would start
training. Jordan Rafe and Danny talked most of the ride their, but
Jordan fell asleep about a quarter the way through the train ride.
When she awoke Danny and Rafe were asleep and they where almost
there. She looks over at Rafe who was about ready to fall on the
floor of the compartment they were in. Then she looks over at Danny
he is so cute when he sleeps she thought to herself. Damn it Jordan
you are not supposed to be thinking this. He's Danny you can't be
thinking this again. Just as she that thought came in her head Danny
woke up from his little nap.
"Nice to see you are finally
awake." Danny said snapping Jordan from her thoughts of
him.
"Same to you sleepyhead, and once again Rafe will be the
last one up like always." She said smiling.
"Yeah, like
always I wonder how someone could sleep so much." He said back
to her. She just shrugged her shoulders.
Damn she is cute when she smiles then again she is always cute. Danny, hello I though I went through this you can't think of Jordan that way even though she is a cute ahhhhhhhh damn it. Rafe finally woke up and they started talking. They finally got there about ten minutes after Rafe woke up. They got their stuff and got into another taxi that took them to where they needed to go. They were dropped off at this place where they got their uniforms and they were told what room they were in. Rafe and Danny were putted in the same room. So they exchange room numbers so they would know where to find each other and they could plan getting together later after they settled in. So they went to their separated stations.
Jordan got to where the nurse's
were stationed, and found her room. "You must be our last
roommate," said this fairly tall brunette woman with red lick
stick, "I'm Evelyn and you are?"
"I'm Jordana
McCawley, but everyone calls me Jordan" Jordan replied.
"Ok
Jordan let me introduce you to everyone this is Betty" she said
pointing to a pretty blonde girl, "this is Barbara"
pointing to another blonde, "and this is Sandra" she said
pointing to a woman with glasses and dark brown hair. "And this
is Jordana McCawley, but she likes to be called Jordan. Oh and this
is Martha" she say pointing to a women with brown hair. They all
said hi and they started talking about where they were from. They
were most interested in Jordan tales of her life in Tennessee. They
all wanted to meet Rafe and Danny by the time Jordan was finished
telling them about them. Betty was more interested in weather they
were cute or not.
They guys meeting was pretty much similar they introduced themselves and talked for like five minutes about where they're from then the subject quickly turn to the nurses.
A/n ok that was the end of this chapter. I Just recently learn that prior to 1945 I believe you had to be twenty-one to join the Army Air Corp, or any military base for that matter. It just goes to prove that I occasionally listen in U.S. History everyone in a while. The next chapter will be about their time at the training stations and they will find out that Rafe is going to leave. And something else major I believe will happen in that chapter to. Was the last chapter to long I slimed this one down. I'm going to start trying to have a chapter a week but next week I will probably have two posted because nothing really life changing happen in this one.
