Jack and Rae plot!

[Kestrel Savage.]

SO!
Okay, well you know the situation with Jack. He has to win over Rae or else he's off to that Physics school in New York. But the more he gets to know Rae, he starts to feel protective over her, and doesn't want to hurt her or take advantage of her, because he gets the impression that she doesn't trust men. Spring Fling is coming up soon though! But Jack hates dances. With a passion. But Jack thinks it'd be good for Rae to get out and socialize, so he encourages her to go to the dance, though he has no intention of going himself.
Up to Rach what Raes reaction is, though I doubt Rae will want to go.
Somehow, by some miracle or something Jack WILL convince Rae to go. I don't care how stubborn Rach is about this, Jack will find a way to convince her. He might make a bet with her or challenge her to go or something or other, but he will MAKE Rae go. Non-violently, of course. I would wait til prom, but Jack will be gone to the physics before the end of the school year, so he won't be around for prom.
Also, I was wondering if it would be okay if Sam had a crush on Jack's friend Coleman? That could be another way to convince Jack and Rae to go to the dance, because Jack doesn't really want to go either, but their friends could convince them or something. Anyways...
For the dance, Jack will go to Rae's house to pick her up. Hello Caleb! How ya doin'? Jack will meet Caleb for the first time, who will be sober for once and presentable, so Jack won't suspect anything more than a moderately protective father. Caleb will be all "Have her back by eleven" And Jack'll be all "I'll have her back by ten, sir" Because Jack's such a good not-boyfriend ;D
Anyways, the dance itself can be kind of boring, Jack'll get into a fight with Aaron over something he says about Xander, and it;s up to Rach what Rae gets up to.
Blah dee blah, Dance dance dance...
Jack walks Rae home! Aw! Nah, not Aw. See, the gangsters they had that little feud with in Cool Beans are waiting outside the dance, so Jack walks Rae home so they won't approach her. When they get to Rae's door Jack does that magic trick with the rose, just to be cheeky because he knows she doesn't like romance. While she's distracted he's going to kiss her cheek and then run away, because then he doesn't have to put up with her reaction. Again, up to Rach what Rae reacts.
Skip on a bit.
Gangsters! Jack sees Rae someday in town, and starts talking to/teasing her. Then Jack sees that Gangster (who needs a name, for the mo lets call him G) harrassing some poor teenage girl. Naturally enough, Jack gets pissed and goes to stop him. They get into a verbal fight, and G starts talking bad about Rae. Jack manages to control his temper and storms off with Rae.
Stuff happens, Jack and Rae become friendlier, blah. One day, Aaron starts making up rumours about Rae, saying her slept with her and how she was a slut and a whore. Jack takes offense, and punches Aaron so hard Aaron loses consciousness. After confronting Smithy, Keenan and Coleman afterward, Jack realizes he likes Rae, but won't tell her. He starts to see her differently though.
Please add to this plot, I can't think of anything else...
OOOOH! Jack gets shot at one point. Yeh. Anyway, that's it!

Okay, well you know the situation with Jack. He has to win over Rae or else he's off to that Physics school in New York. But the more he gets to know Rae, he starts to feel protective over her, and doesn't want to hurt her or take advantage of her, because he gets the impression that she doesn't trust men. Spring Fling is coming up soon though! But Jack hates dances. With a passion. But Jack thinks it'd be good for Rae to get out and socialize, so he encourages her to go to the dance, though he has no intention of going himself. Naturally, Rae will refuse to go because a) she doesn’t do dances and b) she despises dresses. A lot.
Somehow, by some miracle or something Jack WILL convince Rae to go. Jack will find a way to convince her. He might make a bet with her or challenge her to go or something or other, but he will MAKE Rae go. Non-violently, of course. I would wait till prom, but Jack will be gone to the physics before the end of the school year, so he won't be around for prom.
Sam will make Rae wear a dress, as she would’ve preferred to go in a girls’ tux. You know, trousers and whatnot. Sam is going with Coleman, as she bent the rules a little and asked him to go with her to Spring Fling. Together, Coleman and Sam convince Jack to go as well as Rae. Sam thinks Rae needs to get out more as well. And that Jack is a great way of doing just that. Jack doesn't really want to go either. Anyways...
For the dance, Jack will go to Rae's house to pick her up. Hello Caleb! How ya doin'? Jack will meet Caleb for the first time, who will be sober for once and presentable, so Jack won't suspect anything more than a moderately protective father. Caleb will be all "Have her back by eleven" And Jack'll be all "I'll have her back by ten, sir" Because Jack's such a good not-boyfriend
Anyways, the dance itself can be kind of boring, Jack'll get into a fight with Aaron over something he says about Xander, and in between dances with Coleman, Sam will be trying to play matchmaker with Rae and some other guys. Should be fun.
Blah dee blah, Dance dance dance...
Jack walks Rae home! Aw! Nah, not Aw. See, the gangsters they had that little feud with in Cool Beans are waiting outside the dance, so Jack walks Rae home so they won't approach her. Rae doesn’t want to go home, but cant tell Jack that, so she’ll be more than a little shocked when they get to her house and Jack does that magic trick with the rose, just to be cheeky because he knows she doesn't like romance. Darn tootin’. While she's distracted he's going to kiss her cheek and then run away, because then he doesn't have to put up with her reaction. Rae will be all like “What the hell just happened?!” and, even though she still hasn’t really warmed up to him yet, will find that not only did she find it intrusive and annoyed as she may be about it, she’ll also be a little... Embarrassed.
The weekend passes and Rae meets Jack in town. She says she’ll see him at school on Monday, but as drama is important in these threads, she wont show up for the entire week. Up to Hannah what Jack thinks of it, but she wont be around if jack get concerned. Jack can see her at some point in town. She’ll be wearing sunglasses to cover a black eye. I want to give off slight indications to him that something’s wrong, but I’d prefer he not ask cause you know she’ll have a believable excuse. Although, that is all debateable as I’m not sure if I wanna do it. Just thought I’d throw it in there...
Gangsters! Jack sees Rae someday in town, and starts talking to/teasing her. Then Jack sees that Gangster (who needs a name, for the mo lets call him G (I call him café guy)) harassing some poor teenage girl. Naturally enough, Jack gets pissed and goes to stop him. They get into a verbal fight, and G starts talking bad about Rae. Jack manages to control his temper and storms off with Rae.
Stuff happens, Jack and Rae become friendlier, blah. One day, Aaron starts making up rumours about Rae, saying he slept with her and how she was a slut and a whore. Jack takes offence, and punches Aaron so hard Aaron loses consciousness. After confronting Smithy, Keenan and Coleman afterward, Jack realizes he likes Rae, but won't tell her. He starts to see her differently though. Rae’s feelings wont have changed past the friends bit much, though she will admit she does trust him now. And she’ll see a change in him too, which will bug her.
The drunk thing! When Caleb is out some night, Jack will show up drunk at her door. The whole stand still thing, (BATMAN!!!) and Rae doesn’t really want to leave him out there drunk and alone, so she’ll invite him inside. Carter wont like this. Jack will fall pass out in the lounge and wont wake up when Rae slaps him in an attempt to do so. Annoyed, she’ll pull him upstairs by his feet before Caleb gets home and lets him sleep on her window seat. Carter, being an oh-so-funny poltergeist, will find some very nice make up and a board marker and... well... decorate Jacks face. Up to Hannah how jack reacts.
That’s all I got for a while....
OOOOH! Jack gets shot at one point. Yeh. Anyway, that's it!
