I've decided to try writing something besides a Gilmore Girls fic and what could be better than a My So Called Life one?? I'm very sad that this show had to end but oh well it had a hell of a season.

This story will begin during the end of their sophomore year in high school, which is almost where the show really did leave off. So to keep everyone from being confused we will just say it begins 2 months after Jordan and Angela drove away together that night. And just so everyone knows ahead of time, this is a Jordan/Angela fic...as if she would have really even given Brian Krakow a second thought when she had Jordan Catalano waiting for.

Angela V/O: What can I say? I'm still in love with Jordan. No matter how much I want to punish him for what he did, I just can't bring myself to do it. After Brian informed me that he wrote the letter, I felt betrayed by Jordan and Brian, mostly by Brian. I mean, I've always known that Brian Krakow had this crush on me but I have made it perfectly clear to him the feelings were not mutual and to move on. I understand why Brian wrote the letter for Jordan, it was his way of living vicariously through him, to Brian it was as if becoming him. But Jordan didn't see it that way, he saw it as a way out, or in his case the way back in. Jordan confessed to me that same night that he didn't actually write the letter which he apologized for as well as everything that he had done in the past to hurt me. It wasn't exactly the amazing words that I read in that letter but it still meant the same actually coming from him. Jordan had finally opened up to me and I was once again in love with him by the time he dropped me off at home. We've been happily and openly dating for two months now. I can honestly say I've never been happier, I wish that I could say the same for my mom.

Angela stopped at the end of the stairs listening to what her mom was saying to Danielle before walking into the kitchen without warning.

"Danielle I don't have time for this, I'm going to be late for work."

"But I don't want to go stay with dad I don't understand why I have to. Why doesn't Angela have to go?"

"Angela is older, it's different. Danielle I'm sorry but it's your dads weekend to have you anyway. Besides I have to go out of town this weekend for a conference and I'm not going to be home to watch you."

"This is so unfair." Danielle continued to pout as she made her way out the door and headed for the bus.

"Remember, your dad will be picking you up from school this afternoon." Patty screamed after her daughter had already slammed the door.

After Danielle left Angela decided it was safe to go into the kitchen.

"Hey mom."

"Oh Angela I'm running late. Are you sure you're going to be alright here by yourself this weekend?"

"Yeah of course I'll be fine." Angela knew that her mom was trying to read her so she turned around taking a sip of her juice that was already poured. "Hey mom?"

"Yeah honey?" She asked distracted as she rustled through her briefcase for something.

"I want to stay with you know like full time. I don't want to see dad, not with her. I mean he can come see me, but I don't see why I should have to interrupt my life just because he decided to desert his family for another women."

"If it were up to me Angela it would definitely be that way. I love you." She said giving her a quick hug.

"I love you too mom."

Patty stared down at her watch. "Oh geez I've got to go, I'm already going to be so late. Angela be good this weekend, and please don't let me come home to a disaster."

"I promise everything is going to be fine mom."

"Okay I got to get going I'll see you Monday."

"Bye mom." Angela yelled to her as the door shut.

Angela V/O: Ever since my parents split up things have been a lot better between me and my mom. It's like we finally live on the same planet and we both really just want each other to be happy. I still love my dad but I can't forgive for what he did, at least not yet.

At the sound of the familiar horn she snapped out of her daze and ran outside. She quickly climbed into the passenger seat of the familiar red convertible and was greeted with a long kiss.

"Hello." Jordan whispered to her as their lips parted.

"Hi."

Jordan pulled into his normal spot at school and turned off the engine. Angela hadn't really been paying attention and continued to stare out the window in a trance.

"So..." Jordan said bringing her back to reality. She smiled at him. "Is everything okay, you seem kind of out of it?"

"I know, I'm sorry. I've just been thinking a lot about my parents situation lately. But I'm fine." Angela could tell he wasn't quite sure what to say about the situation with her parents when he remained quiet. "So, you have any plans for the weekend yet?"

"I have band practice tonight but after that nothing. Why, what are your plans?" He asked moving closer to her.

"Not sure, haven't really made any yet. It's unfortunate too having the entire house to myself all weekend long." She said stressing the last word.

"Like your mom would really leave you and your sister alone. You forget Angela your mom and I we sort of bonded the last few months." Jordan said with a smile.

"No really she's gone. She had to go out of town for business this weekend, it was sort of last minute."

"Okay yeah but your sister will still be there. That's pretty much the same as having your mom in the house."

"Nope, this is the weekend she has to stay with dad."

"Oh okay, so what time should I get there?" He asked very serious.

"I thought you had band practice."

"Yeah for like an hour after school...you said the house was yours all weekend."

"Just come by after practice then...we can watch a movie or something."

"It's a date." He said closing the deal with a kiss. "I gotta get going, I have to meet Tino about practice before my first class. I'll see you in English." Jordan quickly got out of the car leaving Angela alone.

Angela V/O: Jordan has changed so much in the past few months. With the help of me and Brian he is managed to maintain a C average. After the letter incident I suggested to Jordan that he switch tutors but he insisted that Brian, or Brain as he likes to call him, understands him and that he didn't want to have to start all over with someone new. It's a good thing though, Jordan actually wanting stability in his life. No more of the whatever happens, happens attitude.

Angela got out of the car and started walking towards her first class. She hadn't been out of the car for more then thirty seconds before she heard her call her name.

"Angela, hey wait up." Rayanne called out to her.

Angela V/O: Rayanne and I finally made up but things between us are different now. It's not like how it used to be and honestly I don't think it ever will be that way again. I still feel as if she stole something from me that I cherished but then quickly tried to give it back hoping there would be no consequences.

"Hey Rayanne." Angela kept walking as Rayanne caught up to her.

"So Ricky and I were thinking about going to a movir or something tonight, you wanna come along with us? And before you say no, let me just say how much Ricky and I have missed you lately."

"Rayanne I'm sorry but I can't, I just made plans with Jordan for tonight."

"Oh right of course. Well if it's not too weird maybe we could all go out and see a movie together?"

"Why would that be weird?" Angela asked an obvious question mainly just wanting to see what Rayanne's response would be.

"Well you know, all of us have never really hung out together like as a group before, especially after...you know."

"Yeah well I would ask but we sort of made plans to be alone tonight."

"Oh." Rayanne hadn't expected that, she began to scratch her head confused and acted as if she had just remembered something important. "You know what, I just remembered...I gotta meet Tino, he was doing like this favor for me. I have to go find him before school starts. I'll see you later Angela." She said as she began to walk in the other direction.

"Rayanne?" Angela called out to her.

"Yeah?"

"Jordan was meeting Tino before school, under the bleachers, to talk about band practice. I'm sure that's still where they are."

"Oh right thanks." Rayanne began to run before she could be stopped again.

Angela turned back towards the school and continued to walk towards her first class. She was already wishing this day could be over, she knew it was going to be a long day.
