Do you ever have those moments where you can't remember something? Like when you are watching a movie and can't for the life of you remember where you've seen that actor before?

This morning I couldn't remember what PBA stood for. I remember now of course, but it got me thinking of a few things PBA could stand for;

Pretty Bitch Association,

Popular Bitch Association,

Please Be Attractive,

Please Binge After,

Popularity Brings Attention,

Can you think of any more?

Title: Open Your Heart
Pairing: Bruce Patman/Rorie Walker
Summary: Rorie Walker wasn't your typical rich girl. She was exactly the oppisite and she had given up on love knowing that it just wasn't for her but upon meeting Bruce Patman she began to wonder if she's met her match or if is she going to end up like the rest of them.

Bruce's POV

"Well, she's a pretty little thang."

As he began to walk away, he noticed that Rorie was back outside again and turned around to see unlocking her car door but he noticed that she didn't seem like she was in a good mood. That's when the front door opened and he watched her father coem out and yelled," Where do you think you are going?"

"Away from you so can I breathe. I'll be back when I wanna be back."

"Rorie sweetie please."

"Leave me alone."

Whoa, what the hell was going on with this girl? As I watched Rorie, she suddenly glanced at him and then climbed into her car and revved the engine and sped off as her parents watched and I stood there trying to figure out where she might go. Yeah, I just met her but from the looks of things they weren't alright as I always percieved them to be when new people moved into the neighborhood.

As I stood there, I waited until I watched her parents walk into their house and I raced off towards my house and opened up my door and hopped in and sped off in the direction that she was in and as I drove out I could see her red ferrari parked on the curb of the entrance and I got out of my car and walked over to her's as she put her head in her hands and knocked on the door as she jumped and rolled down her window and asked," You okay?"

"Why do you wanna know?"

"I was concerned."

"Why would be concerned? Don't you have better things to do Bruce?"

"Rorie."

She looked at me and responded," Where is the nearest diner?"

"Dairy Burger."

"Hop in."

"I'm not leaving my car here."

"You sound like me."

I smiled as she brushed her brown hair out of her eyes and I responded," Follow me back to my house."

"Ok."

Man, this girl was something else. She was a little spit fire much like me, hell she could probably put me in my place. Naaah, no girl can do that to me. I'm Bruce Patman, girls go weak at the sight of me.

I parked my car as she waited and I climbed into her car moments later as she smiled at me and responded," I like to drive fast."

"Much like me."

"Oh Bruce, you think you may know me but you don't."

"What don't I know about you?"

She smiled at me and responded," Trust me, I'm way too complication for you to understand."

"Why do you say so?"

"Because I am Bruce."

I watched as she asked," You want to point me in the direction of this place?"

"Oh whoops, I forgot about that."

She giggled. "You are so funny Bruce."

"Glad you think so sweetheart."

She glanced at me. "You are such a flirt."

"From what I know, you are too."

She rolled her eyes. "My dad dosen't even know so don't pay any attention to him."

"Dosen't sound like you are too fond of him."

She nodded. "I can't stand him, he's a workaholic. My dad dosen't even know what it is to have a family. We moved here for him and his career. It wasn't a move that I wanted, he really screwed up my life. Hell, he always has."

I looked at her as she talked about her dad and I could tell that there was bad blood between the two, I had to wonder what it could possibly be. From the outside, Rorie looked like a normal rich snobby girl that you would expect to see but knowing her hearing talk I knew that she wasn't and I was hoping that I could get to know her better, it wouldn't hurt to have help her out. What I didn't is how much of an impact Rorie Walker would make on my life.

Rorie's POV

"So Rorie, where are you from?"

"I'm from Minnesota Bruce."

"Ahh I see."

I smiled. "Have you ever been there?"

He shook his head as he dug into his banana split and I watched his jet black hair fall in his face as he responded," No, I haven't."

I smiled at him. "It's a beautiful place Bruce, you should go."

"I'm sure it's not as beautiful as you are."

"You talk about me being a flirt?"

He chuckled. "You said it first sweetheart."

"Bruce, can you stop calling me sweetheart."

He looked up at me and responded," Sure, did I make you mad?"

"No, it's just that name has some bad memories for me."

He nodded digging his spoon into his dessert as I responded," I didn't mean to make you upset but it's just that word is not one of my favorites."

He smiled. "No worries, you didn't upset me. Why don't we change the subject?"

"I like that idea."

"What brought you here to Sweet Valley?"

I sighed. "My dad came here for his job and he wants to start over. He wasn't happy in Minnesota and if he's not happy we always have to follow suit. I can't wait until I am done with high school and hten I am done with him. I hate it, Minnesota was my home. All of my friends were there and we came here and it's just been hard for me."

"Ahh i see."

"Have you lived in Sweet Valley your entire life?"

He nodded. "I was born and raised here."

I smiled. "I see, do you love it here?"

"Ehh, it's okay."

He smirked as I finished my ice cream, my brown hair fell into my eyes and got into the ice cream as he laughed and I rolled my eyes and responded," Thanks Bruce."

He smiled. "Oh if you run into Lila Flower just ignore her, she's a rich girl but I can't stand her."

I smiled. "I probably won't be able to stand her either Bruce."

"So Bruce, why would you want to hang with me? Don't you have a girlfriend?"

He shrugged. "No, I don't. I'm not one for relationships."

"Much like me."

In Minnesota, I was known as the speed dater. I had been struggling to find someone that I could be with but usually the guys just wanted to be with for my money. There was one guy but thinking of him makes me want to cry and cut myself as I did years ago, even though I was rich girl from the midwest I wasn't exactly happy. I was a party girl who loved to have fun but deep down I was trying to find my own way to survive since my own parents were so wrapped in being rich.

"You okay Rorie?"

I snapped out of my thoughts to see Bruce smiling at me and I blushed and responded," I'm sorry, I was just thinking."

"It's okay, you just looked deep in thought."

I smiled. "Well, I should probably get going back. Thank you Bruce."

He winked at me as I smiled and he paid for the ice cream as I walked out and he responded," So, are you all registered at Sweet Valley?"

I shook my head. "I am doing that tomorrow. I can't believe they are starting school on a thursday."

He snorted. "I know, it's ridculous but I'll see you then."

I liked Bruce, I knew from the get go that I would. I had to wonder if there was more to the story than he was telling me, I had a feeling that there was but then again that was me jumping to conclusions as usual. Whatever it was, I knew that this wasn't the last time I would see Bruce Patman. I had a feeling he was going to play a vital role in my life.

Hey guys,

It's me getyourwingss I decided to get a new username...although I haven't deleted the old one yet. So if any of you have me on your f-list you can feel free to keep me. Anyway, I can't decide where to go with my SVH story. I'm blocked. I have been writing a BabySitter's Club story in it's place, that for some odd reason, is still going. I have 3 Chapters of that wrote. Heh. Maybe I'm enjoying all the BSC snark, who knows?

Anyway, any ideas or thoughts you might have will be great. I'm up for humiliating Jess, so let's have at it! Also, the Camp they are going to will be haunted. Supposedly, or not. Your choice!

Jess

SVU Books

Fri, 22 Feb 2008 21:33:20 GMT

Hello everyone,

I found six SVU books in a box in my basement, and I'd like to get rid of them. Would anyone be interested? If you are willing to pay fifty cents each and the S&H fees, I'll be happy to send them to you. The books are:

1 - College Girls
2 - Love, Lies, and Jessica Wakefield
19 - Broken Promises, Shattered Dreams (I love the drama in these titles)
22 - Elizabeth's Summer Love
23 - Sweet Kiss of Summer
28 - Elizabeth's Heartbreak

Just let me know!

EDIT: Actually I'd be interested in doing some trading. I do the recaps, and I'm in need of a copy of "Racing Hearts" and the like!

FF: My first ever Sweet Valley High fan fiction!

Thu, 24 Jan 2008 23:58:37 GMT

Disclaimers: Not mine. They belong to Francine Pascal.
Author: Get your wings
Title: Legend of Camp Moon
Characters/Pairings if any: Sweet Valley High ensemble.
Author’s note: This fic falls into the early Sweet Valley High series. I know a Summer Camp one was mentioned in the series later on, but it sucked so here’s my version. We also have Sociopath! Jess as well. God, I miss the early books!

Chapter One

“I can’t believe you talked me into this.” Sixteen year old Jessica Wakefield glowered at her identical twin sister, Elizabeth. “I mean really, Liz. We’re teenagers now. Teenagers! Much too old to be going to summer camp.” Jessica’s blue-green eyes narrowed as she stared at her sister with disgust. Talking to Elizabeth never did anyone any good--it was like talking to a brick wall.

“Oh, come on Jess.” Elizabeth said and turned from her closet. She was doing a last minute double checking before the twins’ parents dropped them off. “It’ll be fun. And, we’re not going to camp as campers. We’re going as CIT’s. Counselors-in-training.”

“Oh.” Jessica said. “Well, that makes all the difference, doesn’t it?”

Elizabeth knew that tone of her sister’s voice. “Be nice, Jess.” She warned. “Besides, Lila and Cara are going too.”

“Well…” Jessica hesitated. Her two best friends were going to the camp as well. Cara, because she thought it would be fun, and Lila because…well Jessica wasn’t really sure why Lila was going. Maybe she had nothing better to do.

“Still. Babysitting a bunch of pre-teens doesn’t sound like my idea of fun.” Jessica pointed out. “We’ll have to watch the little brats and make sure they don’t kill each other.” She stared at herself in her sister’s full length mirror. Jessica had recently died her hair black over the school year on a whim. Now her hair was back to it’s natural golden sheen.

“Oh, but Jess.” Elizabeth stopped her double checking and picked up a pamphlet. “There’s so much to do. Hiking, biking, swimming…arts and crafts--”

“Oh, gee!” Jessica clapped her hands together. “Really? Arts and crafts?” She asked, slipping her new white sunglasses over her head.

“Come on, Jess. There’ll be kids from different schools.” Elizabeth reminded. “You might even find yet another love interest to add to your long list of broken hearts.”

It made Jessica smile. “Well, you have a point.” She said. “And at least I’ll have Lila and Cara.”

“And I’ll have Jeffery and Enid.” Elizabeth agreed.

“What fun we’ll have.” Jessica commented dryly, considering Jeffery French, Elizabeth’s boyfriend to be as boring as her best friend, Enid. “What time are we leaving, anyway?”

“In an hour.” Elizabeth reminded. “So, you need to pack up. Have you even started?” She asked. She had a feeling that Jess would wheedle her into doing the packing for her. Elizabeth recalled the argument she had with her boyfriend a month earlier. She was going to stay firm in her resolution to quit doing things for Jessica. If Jessica got in a mess this summer, well that was her own fault!

“No.” Jessica flashed a sweet smile. “I was thinking that my most awesome twin sister would help me.”

“You thought wrong.” Elizabeth said. “I’m already packed. I have all my things ready. You need to get a move on.”

Jessica sighed. “But Lizzie.” She cajoled, looking crestfallen. “My room is an absolute mess! How can I pack anything in there? You’re soo much better than I am at organizing things!”

Elizabeth felt her resolve slipping. She had to fight it. No, Jess wasn’t going to stamped on her anymore. “No, Jess. You should’ve thought about that last night instead of going to Lila’s and spending the night.”

“But--but it was our last night in Sweet Valley! Amy was there before she left for the summer!” Jessica protested. “You can’t tell me if Enid wasn’t coming with us, that you would’ve stayed the night with her last night!” She wailed.

Elizabeth sighed. Jessica did have a point. “Jess…alright. Bring your suitcase in and I’ll help you pack. But, I said help.” She firmly added.

Jessica grinned, the distraught look on her face instantly gone. “Liz, you’re the best!” Jessica exclaimed and flung her arms around her twin sister. “What would I ever do if I lost you?”

“Never leave home, for one thing.” Elizabeth mumbled, returning the hug. “Because you’d never have anything to pack.”

Jessica laughed at Elizabeth’s joke. “While I go grab my suitcase and clothes, I’ll bring us a snack. Want a sandwich?”

“Sure.” Elizabeth nodded. “That sounds nice. Oh, and some of that lemonade if there’s any left.”

Jessica flashed a smile. “Sure thing, Liz. I’ll be right back. I promise.” She added, fluttering her eyelashes.

Elizabeth eyed her sister, making another firm resolution to not fall for Jessica’s acts. But she was so good, it was sometimes hard not to. “Ok. If you don’t come back up here in five minutes, I’m throwing all your clothes down the stairs.” She warned her sister.

Again, Jessica laughed. “Yeah, yeah.” She wagged a hand. “I’ll be right back.” Before Elizabeth could say another word, Jessica turned and raced for the stairs.

Elizabeth sighed. “Well…hopefully, we’ll still have a great summer.” She said.
***

An hour had passed, and there was no sign of Jessica. Elizabeth glared at her now messy room, which she was trying to pack her twin’s clothes in vain. Suddenly, the door to her room burst open and Jessica whirled in.

“Oh my god Liz!” Jessica exclaimed, the perfect picture of innocence. “I’m so sorry. I totally forgot--”

“Where did you go, Jess? I told you that I’d help you pack, not pack for you!” Elizabeth ranted.

“I’m so sorry.” Jessica said quickly. “I really, really am. But Lila called and she needed my help.” She gave her twin a sweet smile. “You wouldn’t have wanted me to leave Lila in the lurch, would you Liz?”

Elizabeth rolled her eyes. “Jess, I’m sure Lila can fend for herself. With all those maids and servants at Fowler Crest, she didn’t need you to go over there right away. You were supposed to be helping me help you pack!” In anger Elizabeth hurled a purple striped shirt at her sister’s head.

Jessica ducked, and missed. She let out an shriek as the shirt hit her. Pulling it down from her face, Jessica sighed. “Look, I’ll make it up to you.”

“How are you gonna do that in little over an hour?” Elizabeth demanded.

Jessica looked thoughtful. “I’ll drive us up there. How’s that?”

Elizabeth raised a brow. It was a two hour drive to Camp Moon. “Ok.” She said with a little nod. “You can drive us there. I’ll navigate.”

“Great!” Jessica said. “Now come on Lizzie, I thought you were more organized than this!” She glanced around her twin’s room and gave a little huff. “We don’t have that much time left.”

An hour later, the twins were packed and standing beside their red Jeep. “You two be careful.” Ned Wakefield said as he hugged Jessica first, then Elizabeth. “And make sure to follow the road signs and--”

“Dad.” Jessica groaned. “You’re going to make us late with all this lecturing.” She said, sighing dramatically. “It’s a two hour drive, as it is. And we still have to pick up Lila.” She reminded.

Alice Wakefield, an older version of the girls smiled. “She’s right. We need to let them go. Be careful.” She gave both her daughters a hug. Jessica, ready for summer and fun practically leaped to the jeep while Elizabeth prolonged the goodbyes and promised to watch out for Jessica, as always. “And remember, Mom and Dad, we’ll be meeting Jeffery and Winston at the gas station.” Elizabeth said, to calm her parents nerves.

The elder Wakefields waved to their children. “One last stop before we hit Freedom!” Jessica sang in her off key voice as she waved to her parents. She got in the driver’s side, as promised. Pulling out of the driveway like a bat out of hell, Elizabeth held her breath and buckled her seat belt. She just hoped that Jess wouldn’t make them get any speeding tickets before they got to camp!

I will be writing more. Let me know what you think, please. This is my first time writing down a story in my head. This one will involve good old Sociopath! Jess and Doormat! Liz syndrome. Liz+Jeff=OTP. Summer Camp...well, you'll have to keep reading to see what happens! Suggestions are welcomed, but nothing too out there. This isn't a parody fic, this one's halfway normal. Just...done differently than Francine.

Ghost Writers

Mon, 21 Jan 2008 06:27:12 GMT

I really wish the ghost writers of all the Sweet Valley series had gotten together.

The SVU GWs could have told the SVH GWs "You can't kill Olivia in that earthquake, she pops up in one of our books at a Christmas reunion."

SVH GWs to other SVH GWs "Todd has a Brother/Sister. WTF happened to Him/Her?"

They know the colour of the twins hair and eyes, they know what size clothes they wear, they just can't make up their minds weather they have heart shaped faces or oval!

It must be fun to be a Sweet Valley Ghost Writer. All the books are aimed at 12 year olds or younger. You can make up any crap you want. You don't need to do research on any country the twins visit, after all, what 12 year old or younger is going to know the difference?"
Of course they didn't think we would all grow up and actually learn the truth.

They keep including characters that went away. Nicky Shepard and Helen Bradley moved away, yet both pop up in later books. Suzanne Devlin even makes an appearance as a SVH student. (I almost wrote Stupid instead of Student, hard to tell the diff really.)

There are so many more that thinking about them just may cause my head to explode. What drives the rest of you nuts about these lovely people?

Fic ideas?

Fri, 18 Jan 2008 20:52:41 GMT

So does anyone have any fic ideas/requests? I need to be inspired. I'm open to anything SVH or SVU-related. Let 'em loose!

Odd moment

Fri, 18 Jan 2008 03:32:13 GMT

On this Sweet Valley High novel, it's supposed to be Lila vs Jessica, but I have this thing...if that auburn haired girl is Lila, why is she dressed in that ratty gray sweatshirt? Did she borrow it from Roger? Cause...Lila wouldn't be caught dead in that. I mean, really. This cover always makes me go wtf???

Just something that always bothers me.

Hi!

Tue, 15 Jan 2008 08:31:44 GMT

Hey there. I love Sweet Valley...as in obviously. So, who are your favorites? Mine is slowly becoming Jess, although I used to adore Elizabeth and want to be just like her. Also, does anyone have a cover of the twins in the 80s where they are sporting their golden lavaliers, or the Prom Night cover? I'd love to make some icons.

Also...I do fic requests. All things SVH, of course!

Later,

Jess
