I know it's been a long time since you've heard from me, but I had this idea today so I came back to the boards!

Alright, I'm not 100% sure what little Danny looked like or how old he was (I've never seen the last eposode), but this is under the assumption that he had dark brown hair and brown eyes and that he was 7 years old). If I'm wrong, please, correct me.

This is set about 10 years after the searies finalie. Richie and Lori-Beth have moved back to Millwalkie, Fonzie is married to a new chacter, and a few other things. Here we go!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It had become a fairly common sight. Danny Fonzerilli and RJ Cunninghman sharing a couple words at the water fountian in the first-floor hallway. For them, it was a chance for the elder of the boys to check up on his young freshman friend, but for many, spifically the majority of the female population of the school, it was a chance to get a glimpse of the two hottest guys on campus.

Danny, a senior, made it a point to glance arround the halls to see if there was some form of trouble. He'd gained a reputation as a troubleshooter, who would be willing to help with anything from escaping from someone trying to pick a fight to having trouble with a locker. His moments with his friend RJ were breif, but nessary. Danny knew full well that his uncle Richie would kill him if he didn't check on RJ regurally.

RJ himself, a freshman who had fast become popular once it became known he was friends with Danny, relied on his friend and sort-of family member to keep him away from trouble. Having inhearated his father's enhearent shyness, Danny's populary intimidated him, and if the older boy didn't constantly seek him out, RJ would've been scared to even talk to him. Now it was routune.

Holloween was approaching, although few stopped to think about it yet, RJ was on the decoration comittie, and as Danny checked arround for trouble, RJ looked for cool places for crape paper and fake spider webs. "You know, I hope you have Mrs. Colewhen you get to be a senior." Danny stated

"From everything you told me about her." RJ said "I do too. Black, Orange, or Black and Orange twist?"

The switch in topics was all too normal, and didn't throw Danny in the least. "Where?" he asked.

"Over the lockers."

"Twist." Danny stated. "One by itself would just be..." Danny let the sentence trail off, leaving the last word to his friend's immagionation. he first bell rang. In a quick doubble-check, Danny asked "State Requirements?"

RJ nodded and echoed it with his own question. "Consumer Math?" Danny nodded and rolled his eyes. He didn't get why Consumer Math was a fourth-year-only thing, and had wanted to take it since he was a freshman. Now that he finally got the chance to, Danny was board to tears in it.

The two boys took off for their respective classes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I like it! Please continue! :)

State Requirements was RJ's favrete subject. It was, in essence, social studies. At first, RJ hadn't gotten why they didn't just call it that, but the first few weeks had answered that question. It wasn't just about history and geography, it was about how that history and geography related to you as a person.

The class's ending resulted in the useal quick file-out line that had RJ behind a pretty blond girl who was in two of his classes, this one and Phycial Science. He knew her name was Heather from daily roll call, but her last name escaped him thanks to the fact that their State Requiremets teacher had them seated in alphebetical order acording to first name.

With an extra stride to catch up to her, RJ spoke up. "Heather, right?"

The girl nodded, and echoed "Richard, right?"

A blush rising in his cheeks, RJ quickly corrected her with an abrupt "It's RJ." There was an aquard pause, then as they entered the hallway he found the presence of mind to ask "What's your next class?"

Heather looked confused, and RJ didn't understand why at first, until she asked "You mean after lunch?"

Now it was RJ's turn to be confused. Then, realisation dawned. Lunch was coming up! His blush deepened as he said "Ummm...yeah, what's your next class after lunch?"

"Spanish." she responded "Why?"

"Ummmmm..." RJ began, trying to hide his embarsement. He'd been arround Danny long enough to be able to think of a good excuse, except for one problem. He was too honest for his own good. "I...I forgot that we had lunch next."

At that, Heather bursted into uncontrolable peels of laugher, her long blond hair flopping over her shoulders as she did. "Oh my god!" she declared "You...you forgot lunch was coming up? You ither were really preocupied or your stomach and brain arn't on speaking terms."

Still blushing, RJ said "Well...ummmmm."

Heather was still laughing. "C'mon. Why don't you sit with me at lunch?"

"Sure." RJ responded, feeling like an iddoit the instant the word sliped from his lips. His friendship with someone as wildly popular as Danny gave him the oppurtunity to date any girl at the school, so why was he agreeing to have lunch with a girl he'd just completly humilated himself in front of?

The question was erased from his mind when Heather tugged on his arm and said "Well, let's go. I don't want to be way in the back of the lunchline."

RJ was not the least bit inclined to argue.

Will you do the next chapter please?
