Chapter 1.4


     "God I never wanna share a house with such pigs again." Jaessana grumbled while trying to clean the caked on grease from the stove.  Everado was usually the one that cleaned house, being a neat freak and all, but he was at the gym again and the smell coming from the kitchen was beginning to bother her.


     She was in the bathroom cleaning when Everado finally made it home that night.
     "I was gonna get to that tomorrow," he said when he found her.
     "It's not your job to clean up after these slobs," Jaessana replied getting up.  "Welcome home," she said kissing him.
     "Mmm.  I like these welcomes of yours," he said kissing back.


     "There are no such things as dinosaurs.  It's a hoax the Sim government is playing on all the unsuspecting sims."
     Jaessana didn't really know or care if dinosaurs were real or not but Carol had bet that she couldn't get other sims at the university to join in the rally.  Jaessana thought she could do it, so here she was standing around carrying a sign with the picture of a dinosaur on it.


     By the time the rally was in full swing she had a good following participating.  Jaessana was happiest that Everado was here somewhere in this crowd.  She tried looking over the heads from the podium but she couldn't see him right now.


     "That was a great protest, but why not hold the next one as a protest against being out of shape."
     "What makes you think there is gonna be a next one?" Jaessana asked.
     "Jae, I know you.  You can't leave anything half done.  That was your first rally of course there are gonna be more."  Everado stared at her.
     The lifted eyebrow implied a "duh" in there somewhere.  Jaessana smiled, "Ok, so I was thinking of doing another.  What about a rally protesting the tragic clown.  I mean who's to say he's really tragic.  I think we are projecting our own fears onto the clown and there really shouldn't be anything to fear."
     Everado chuckled, "Ok so why do fear the clown?"


     As she was getting ready to leave for class the next day, Jaessana stopped when she heard an electronic shriek.  Running into the kitchen she found the stove and half the kitchen on fire.  One of her idiot dorm-mates had left food cooking on the stove.
     "Fire," she screamed and ran to dial the fire department.  They came with sirens blaring and put out the fire.  They left with a warning not to leave things on the stove.
     As if I don't know better than to leave food unattended, she thought as she left the dorm to get to her class, late of course.


     "The kitchen was on fire and no one else was home," she told Everado later that evening as they were playing a game of billiards.
     "Sweetheart it's fine, we're leaving in the morning to go back to Isla Paridiso."
     "Not if we're killed in our sleep because of their idiocy," she raged.  "I'm saying I don't ever want to share a place with strangers again."
     "Ok. So next term we just rent a house somewhere."
     "You don't think I'm being cranky about it."
     "Well after nearly dying in a fire I think it's fair to be cranky about this."
     "Haha," she said rolling her eyes and taking her shot.


                                                                                                                                                                   
Random Ramblings

Yeah first semester/term done, fist pump.  Jaessana started with a partial scholarship so she only needs 6 more units for her degree, could of got it in one if I loaded her down with three classes.  Everado started without.  They both took a two class load so Everado is halfway towards done.  Both ended with an A, brushes shoulders.  Yeah so I'm uber-obsessed with "perfect" grades hopefully next time I try the college run I can go the party route.  They had tons of invites to parties that I turned down.  Jaessana ended the term with a rebel reputation of 7 (out of 10) so yeah I was pretty into the whole rebel thing.  She held one more protest this term and both were huge successes.  It was certainly amusing.

Oh and the fire thing pretty much happened exactly in the story.  No...one...was...home.  and it happened not once but twice.  So yeah if we get back here definitely going for the home outside of the dorms.
