Hey everyone! Welcome back to this fanfiction. So I realized I've started a trend of updating on Mondays, so I'm just going to set that. I'll update on Mondays, and if it doesn't happen I'll try to get one up ASAP. It will be like Jenna Marbles' sexual Wednesdays. Only not as close as to being as awesome or as anticipated as her Wednesdays are… Sorry to ramble, but that's just me… I guess…
I don't own Pitch Perfect or anything related to it. Except for the Swanson kids. I guess I own them. Or would Jesse and Beca technically own them…? But they're not real… And now here's when we cry. But don't worry! They will forever live in our hearts! (Cue slow clap for awkward cheesiness)
Episode 9: What We Do When Someone is Trying to Study
So in the return, the reaction to the output algorithm must be five.
Aiden eagerly wrote this answer down in his notebook and grinned to himself. He had finally figured out the formula that had been troubling him for the past month! He concluded that there had never been a better day. That is, until he started his AP calculus homework. Usually the subject was a breeze, but Aiden had come across a particularly difficult prompt. His brows furrowed as he leaned in closer to his textbook, trying to concentrate.
"Mmm, Josh."
Aiden's head snapped up to find his brother making out with his long-term girlfriend, Rachael Camp, on the other couch. He narrowed his eyes at his brother. Why here? Why not, he doesn't know, in Josh's bedroom?!
"What the hell, Josh?" He yelped as Rachael decided it would be a good idea to see what disturbing sounds she could provoke out of her boyfriend.
"Hm, what?" He asked, making no effort to stop his girlfriend.
"Get out!" He hissed, swiping the pillow from under the couple so Josh would hit his head against the back of the couch.
"Ouch! Just 'cause you're too nerdy to get a girl does not mean you get to take it out on me!" He snarled and grabbed Rachael's hand.
"I'm trying to study." Aiden emphasized.
"So?" Josh rolled his eyes, and dragged Rachael out of the living room as she gave Aiden a sympathetic look.
Aiden sat back on the couch opposite the one they occupied and re-opened his textbook. His family was literally insane. Literally. If they had a reality show, he was pretty sure it would be more popular than any of those shows about the Jersey Shore.
Just as he was about ready to restart the difficult problem, very loud talking overcame the room.
"What do you mean you can't? YES YOU CAN. Get over here now before I come over there and sock you in the nuts!"
Aiden looked up find his mother, practically seething at her friend on the phone, or as the kids like to call her: Aunt Chloe.
"I don't CARE if girls don't have nuts! I would find some on you to sock anyway!" She continued, pacing right in front of the couch Aiden was on.
"Mom." Aiden said but he went ignored.
"This is important, Chloe…Yes. More important then your stupid soaps!"
"Mom!" He pleaded, to no avail.
"I don't give a flying ball sack Richard cheated on Kimberly with his mother-in-law!"
"MOM!" He yelled loudly, standing up in front of her.
"Aiden, quiet down. I'm trying to have a conversation with your aunt." She gave him a look, and Aiden threw his hands up in frustration. Luckily, his mom continued her screaming match with her friend in another room of the house.
For about ten minutes, Aiden worked quietly on the problem. He punched some numbers into his graphing calculator, when suddenly a loud crash startled him into typing in the wrong number. "What NOW?" He moaned.
His father was lying on the floor in front of him, covered in popcorn. There was broken glass all around him, and he half-heartily waved at his son.
Aiden face-palmed. "MOM, YOUR HUSBAND IS AN IDIOT!" He yelled and Beca ran into the room with her cell in hand. "Jesus, Jesse! Did you trip over the power cord again?"
As she helped him up, Aiden collected his study materials. That's it, he reasoned. It was time to move into another room. He set his stuff down on the kitchen table and sat down. Finally, he could solve this problem in peace. He started to re-punch the numbers into his calculator when he was interrupted yet again.
"Sha la la la my oh my! Oh you're dying to try, you wanna kiss the girl!" His sister was wiping down some dishes and shaking her hips in a fashion he wouldn't ever want to see repeated. "Madi. Leave. Now."
"Aiden! I didn't see you there! Guess what? I just had my first kiss! Can you believe it?!" She sang happily and threw her arms around him.
"Does this look like a face that cares?" He asked, narrowing his eyes slightly.
"What's your problem?" She frowned, scrubbing a bowl.
"I've been trying to finish this stupid homework assignment for the past hour, and I keep getting interrupted by you and this stupid family!" He ranted and stood up suddenly. "I'm done. Done, done, done." He slammed his textbook shut, and stormed out of the kitchen. Madi watched him go with a confused expression on her face. She just shrugged, blaming it on the fact that everyone in this family was in a relationship but him. Okay so technically she wasn't in a relationship… since she's ten, but... Getting a kiss from Tommy Richards on the playground should count for something. Right? Even if it was only a result of eating the last strawberry fruit roll-up at lunch and he wanted to taste it...
"Sha la la la!"
Hope you all enjoyed! See you next week for Swanson Monday(: Let me know what you think. I'm trying to get working on all your suggestions but sometimes inspiration strikes and things just happen. I guess that's just how writing is… but sometimes the random things you write end up being the best. I feel like I just stole that quote from someone important…
If you all are interested: I have something else for you dish on. At least for me when I'm reading and writing, I need some sort of visual to go along with the words. So, if you're interesting in knowing how I picture the kids, read on below(:
Visuals:
Josh Swanson: Josh Hutcherson.
No pun intended. Haha but I tried to think of someone else to represent him, since the Hutch is so mainstream, but their personalities and looks are so alike I just kept going back to him for Josh's physical aid. Besides, j-hutch is one of my secret boyfriends. So why not?
Aiden Swanson: Taylor Ball.
Have any of you ever seen the old ABC family show Still Standing? Well this actor is from that show. Again, their personalities and looks are so alike that I just had to pick him. If you've ever seen the show you'd notice how similar Aiden is to Brian (character on Still Standing).
Madi Swanson: Lily Collins.
It took me a while to figure out Madi's visual aid, but I came up with this actress. I don't know much about her, but their looks were about where I wanted Madi's to be so this is why I chose her. Also, if you look at a picture of Lily in The Blind Side, that's exactly how I imagined Madi. Except Madi has blue eyes. Just a note.
I realize these are all young actors, but it's just easier to picture them that way.
Please review!
