 Author has written 14 stories for Breakfast Club. I do Allison/Bender. That's my thing. But I think my Brian/OC story, "Changes," is my absolute best work. This story was inspired by Childhood Enigma. Brian is a neglected character, as Childhood Enigma pointed out, and I ran with it. If you're here for Allison/Bender, I ask you to please give Brian some of your time. If you like Bender/Claire, check out When Your Heart Dies by LolaGranola. Even if you don't like Bender/Claire, check it out anyway. It's that good. I need to credit my rocking beta-reader, anjumstar, who is the best! And I must add The Wistful Bloom to my gratitude list. Thank you! My list gets even longer as I add vaguekiwi as a fantastic beta. Many thanks to you, you've helped me so much! I deleted "Bender's Heart," "Phoenix" and "The Last Laugh" as I felt they were not up to my standards and bogged down the attention of my readers. If you loved these stories and desperately want to read them again, let me know | |||||||

I Turned Away by apckrfan reviews
Four years after the movie, Claire gets a late night phone call from the last person she'd expect to hear from. This is a Claire/John fic, but is very heavy on aspects of John's life and things resulting of his involvement with Claire. This fic is complete in 204,000 words, so it's a long one.

The five teens try to figure out how (and if) they can fit into each other's lives after detention, and come up with a solution that suits all of them. And then the couples try to start relationships. With (slightly) new updates. Enjoy! P.S. Also, it goes without saying but I OWN NOTHING. Not the songs, or John Hughes characters.
