Those College Days

Fall 2010, Eva Brooks, Tina Traveller, Bart Ottamas, Bell Burrego and, Brad Patrelli are beginning their senior year. Richard Smith is the new "fresh meat" on campus.





"You know you'll be my first." Brandon, or whatever his name is, says.




Tina is taken aback and shrugs. "Er, yeah. Whatever. Are we gonna do this or not?" She asks. Classes start tomorrow, she needs her rest.




Two minutes later at least one of them was happy! Tina sighed and headed off to bed. She was starting to think that maybe Richard really was the only guy for her.

She hadn't keep much contact with him over the past three years, but she did e-mail him and call monthly and, they never officially broke up. Come tomorrow morning she'd have to make up her mind. Did she want to be single, free to do what she pleased without hurting him, or did she want to stay with Richard.

She just wasn't sure.

***
Richard arrived on campus bright and early the next day. He was excited! Not only was he about to start his academic career, this would be the first time seeing his girlfriend since his graduation back in June.
He was actually nervous.
Upon entering the main hall and rec room Richard spots a student. He goes over and introduces himself.
Jasmin is very pleased to met Richard, she thinks he the cutest thing she's seen. And never mind that he's Tina's boyfriend. She stole Bart away from Jasmin, so she was going to make sure she got Richard to notice her!
Richard spots Tina coming down the stairs. She's even more beautiful than he remembers.




She fails to see him at first.



She's to busy looking at what's his name from the night before. Tina's hoping he won't become a problem for her. Plus, he's way creepy. What in the world was she thinking by sleeping with him?



That's when she turns and sees Richard. A smile spreads over her face and, she launches herself into his arms.

"You're here! I can't believe," she mummers into his ear.

In that moment Tina realizes that she really does wish to be with Richard. She's gotten what even it was out of her system, she's happy with her man.


***
Meanwhile, Bart has finally hooked up with the last female in their dorm.
Tina can't understand why she's so upset by what she saw. It's not like she and Bart had anything special, who cares if he even brought up the possibility of marriage. She wasn't in love with him or anything. So she chalked up her anger to that fact that Bart and Eva were starting something up.
She was mad because he shouldn't have disrespected her friend like that! Yeah, that was the reason. She doesn't have feelings for Bart Ottamas... not at all!
Doesn't stop her from giving the little slut the evil eye though!
If looks could kill, Goth Chick would be dead.
Richard makes his way out back and into the hot tub, inviting Tina to join him.




They stay in the hot tub for a while, soaking, talking, Richard giving Tina a massage. And soon Bart and Goth Chick is forgotten about.

***



The next morning Bart's forgotten all about the hot tub and has moved on to the newest resident. She cute and he finds out that she's new to the downtown area as well.




Tina tells Goth Chick to stay away from Richard. She only shrugs her threats off. It's not like Richard is even her type.



And Richard day dreams as he studies.




Richard has been thinking alright. He's been thinking about things that made it back to him through the grapevine.

He tells Bart in a non threatening manner that he knows what happened between him and Tina, that there isn't much he can do about that. But he wants Bar to know that nothings going to happen between the two of them any more.

Bart doesn't know how to respond, he's never been confronted by a boyfriend before. But he's also sure that he's not ready to give up on Tina either. He thinks that he might have feelings for her than run deeper than just a crush. He'll just have to get Richard out of the way.



And Eva will complain to anyone who will listen about her lack of love life. She's almost through with college and has only been kissed by Bart.



"maybe if you left your books once and a while you'd find someone." Jasmin suggests.




Eva isn't sure she likes that idea. Giving up her books to met guys? Maybe finding love can wait until she graduates.



Back inside she calls up Bell to talk about her situation.


***
Eva called right after a study session. Not much partying is going on at the beginning of the semester. Everyone is focused on doing the best that they can so they can get that diploma.

Plus, Bell has so much juicy gossip and love lives that she can get to work on her first book as soon as she graduates. She's going to be a best selling author in no time.




And she and Brad really need to talk. They're the only ones in the whole house who hasn't spoken to each other since last semester.

They need to get things out in the open and hashed out between them.




The best place to talk is the hot tub. No matter what time it is you normally can get some privacy back there.

Bell takes a deep breath and explains to Brad that what happened between them wasn't a mistake, but it had happened at the wrong time. She had just lost a very important person in her life.

Have a small break between school and losing her love wasn't a long, but she was able to see that Newton wasn't the one for her. She had loved him, but wasn't in love with him.

She realized that she could possibly be falling for Brad. Had been for a while. If she hadn't dated Newton who knew what would have happened with her and Brad.

Brad breaths a sigh of relief. He sat quietly listening as Bell rambled on. He was scared that she didn't want to speak to him anymore, but what she did say was the opposite of what he feared.

This was good news! No, excellent news. He was sure that he was feeling something special for Bell Burrego and, he wanted to explore it.




They decide to take things slow and see where they go.

Welcome to the jungle

First day of school September 2010. There's a lot of kids in this one. So if you want to see who's where look at this post. One of these days I'm going to get those family trees posted!

Kinda long.




Riverdale Elementary welcomes this years Kindergarten class of two. Twins Beht and Nick McPhee. Beth's more excited about starting school than her brother. But they both are very nervous. They've never been around this many children before. Living life on a farm with your two dogs and mom and dad leads to a very sheltered life.

But their parents think the 45 minute drive to Riverdale is well worth it. They educational system can't be beat.




And Brita Johnson is having a mini crisis at the moment. Why does it seem like everyone showed up with the same hairstyle. This was supposed to be her hairstyle and yet Bri wore it and now Ruolan.




Ruolan is thinking; "Eh, whatever!"

Brita can't help but to send her the side eye of evil.




Rose really wants to impress Bri. She thinks she's so cool and pretty. She wants to be just like her!




Too bad Bri can't say the same about Rose. She is so above this and, she doesn't have time for some third grader. Her nail polish is more interesting than this lame conversation.




Rose feels rejected. She just wants to be friends. But she won't give up. Bri is going to like her no matter what!




Meanwhile, Ruolan has taken a liking to Nick. Their still to young to worry about social standings and popularity. Plus, he's only a grade behind her. Ruolan thinks this is a beautiful start to a new friendship.

Ruiling is thinking her sister's going to get cooties from talking to Nick. Ewww!




Lunch is the last period of the day. First day of school everyone gets a half a day. Which is awesome, because the weather is still nice and kids hate being locked inside; having to study all day.

And you can see the infamous drink machine in the back. Well, I guess all that talking Fatima did with Kristin didn't get the thing removed yet.

But the school does provide the children with a well balance meal. So not many opt out for a sugary drink.




Ruiling explains to her sister how she's going to become a leader of a wolf pack when she gets older. She wants to be a vet and take care of wild animals.

Ruolan just imagines her sister being eaten by said pack. Such a silly girl. You can't be the leader of wild beasts, everyone knows that.




And some not so innocent conversations are being had as well. Anan is sharing what she over heard her sister talking about on the phone the other night.




"When we get bigger. You're going to be my first, Aaron." Anan says, what ever that means. She's going to google it when she gets home.




"Are you sure about that?" Adrian ask.

Her brother is thinking he needs to get more male friends. Hanging out with girls is way stressful.




"My mom said something about it causing you to have a fire crotch."

Anan makes a mental note. She's going to have to google fire crotch too.




Rose it put off by the whole conversation. But she likes the word fire crotch and giggles to herself. She's heard her mom use that word to describe Sharla, their neighbor downstairs. She also calls her some other words that Rose won't repeat.




After lunch the most popular place to be is the playground. It's new and, all the children love it.




So popular in fact that Principal Ottamas has to give a lecture on playground etiquette. But she's not sure how many kids are actually listening to her.




As the merry go round spins Ruolan's eyes land on the high school across the street. It's like this mystical wonderful place to her. Where her big brother goes too, where all the cool stuff happens. And she wonders what he's doing in there right now.


***
Samantha Ottamas is a busy woman these days. And to prove that point she's juggling two schools at once. But this is only temporary, the school board will be hiring a new Principal for the elementary school some time this week.

She stands gazing out at the young faces that fill the auditorium as she begins to welcome them to their new school year. So listen while others reacquaint themselves with friends they haven't seen over the summer.




"Man, I say we go skinny dipping again. That was the bomb!" Nora says between giggles. Mary isn't too sure she would be game for that water sport any time soon.




Ye isn't sure how Cameron does it, but she's gotten prettier over the summer. And did her breast get bigger? He's also still mad with Viggo calling her fat. She is perfect, and certainly not fat. (No, I don't think he'll let Viggo live that down... ever!)



"Girls, are you listening?"



Said girls give Samantha a quizzical look. They can no idea what she's talking about and, the burst into a fit of giggles. Yes, it was great to be seniors!



Filing out of the auditorium and to their home rooms Ye sneaks a quick peek at one of Cameron's rear and, so does Oliver.




AJ is mulling over a very important decision. He really like Suni but he also likes Lilly. But, he also doesn't want to breakup with Suni. He's so stumped, he has no idea what to do.


***
Like Riverdale Elementary, Riverdale Jr/Sr High gets a half a day too.

Samantha is happy to see that Viggo has made a few friends and his little slip up last year hadn't followed him to school.




Mary sits with them as well. Showing him a little support could go a long way. If others see her with him, they'll think he's pretty cool.

Mary also talks about soccer camp, how much fun she had even though it was cloudy most of the time.




Ye tries to have lunch with Cameron but she finished her can of pop before he sits down. She gets up and heads back inside the cafeteria without even seeing him.




Playing football inside the lunch room? And Samantha isn't doing a thing about it!



Ye finally builds up the confidence to complement Cameron on her outfit. It's an older one, but he really likes it on her!

Cameron is a bit flattered and tells him thanks. He can be sweet at times.



Keegan grabs Lilly in a head lock and gives her a noggie.



Lilly's thinking; "So not cool!"
***
Outtakes:
I like this pic. Mary practicing in the school gym. Working on another scholarship!

Adrian was swooning over woohoo too. This is what happens when you have teens living in the house!

I've never seen the marry go round this full before.


Seriously, this is Rose smiling. She's evil looking no matter what she does. Poor child. I can't wait to see how she looks as a teen.

(notes: My schools were mad houses. Kids talking about woohoo, teens playing football at lunch. It's funny, the little ones are talking about sex but the big ones aren't. Who are the ones with the hormones again?)
