morning, boys.

“The people of New York, it’s good to be back.” Jack clapped his hands together. After having done some of the most out there tricks. ( Thanks to the eye ). The streets had felt like child plays. But at least he could make some bucks. “Now, I am going to tempt to bend this spoon.” He held out the spoon from his pocket. “ If you can tell me how this is done I’ll give you one hundred dollars.” He added before he started to bend it.

“ look, i get it, i look young, but you SEE how old i am. you’re holding my id, don’t know what else you want. unless you’d like for me to run back to my apartment to get my PASSPORT. so can you just give me my drink ? ”

send ‘ship !’ for| @wingcr

who throws things in a fight? BOTH, annie & jeff are both want to prove that they are AMAZING & always right. in order for them both to prove they’re the smartest one in the room they’ll throw anything everything. and possibly clothes will start coming off?who goes to their parent’s house for a weekend when things get bad? considering both parties really REFUSE to see their family. neither. annie probably goes to a bookstore/library while jeff goes to a bar?

who wants to have children ? who doesn’t ? if both do, how do their goals differentiate? WOAH, where to even begin, i believe that annie does want kids. not yet, however. annie always has a plan especially for kids & her career. first, she needs to decide what she wants to do next, find herself. once she’s locked down the perfect career, working it for like five years, she wants to get married & have kids. annie has this fear she’d be a terrible mother to said kids. so she’d really have to WANT them & PLAN for them before diving into it. JEFFEREY WINGER, oh man— dude can’t even commit to someone for more than a night? however, in season 6 of community, he changed his mind. only because annie was leaving for an internship at the FBI, far away, and i guess he noticed the void that would be made between them when annie was gone. i believe deep down jeff wants kids, but when he’s really secure. if that’s with annie ( obviously i’m like YES ) then i think he’d want them. as long as it fell into annie’s said plan. for now i don’t think EITHER wants kids.who is more adverse to physical contact?i’m just gonna say neither because i can’t think about this right now. jeff & annie touch each other FAR too much not to enjoy it, okay??

“As much as I miss my home, I’m happy to get a new chance here in New York. I don’t know if I want to go back to Lakewood anymore, I’m so torn.”

“well,” jeff started around a laugh, not even bothering to sidestep annie’s playful slaps, because there was FAMILIARITY there and with everything gone topsy - turvy in new york, jeff craved something that felt normal ( and maybe just annie, too ). “it was worth a shot — i had to offer something.” as he listened to annie thinking out loud, considering what she’d need to buy, jeff pulled his cell phone from his pocket and sat down on one of the two pillows he’d brought, stretching his legs out far in front of himself before hooking one ankle over the other. it was difficult to hear annie struggling so much — to hear about her having to start her life over from scratch when she already had to before. for a moment, a flicker of a frown had creased between jeff’s brows, but when he looked up from his search for nearby chinese restaurants, he’d cleared his expression back to calm, cool, & collected. “i can buy you a day planner,” jeff offered. it was probably the CHEAPEST thing annie needed replaced, but he felt that if he offered to help more, she would’ve been declining immediately ; a planner worked like a foot in the door. “like a house warming gift or whatever. because my apartment may be frozen, but my bank account sure isn’t.” he tried to joke, shooting annie a one handed finger gun coupled with a wink ( it paled in comparison to abed’s ), offering a smile that countered her bitter joking. “trust me, i think i’d know if you were EVIL ANNIE.” there’d be more making out, jeff thought idly. he leaned over, patting the pillow next to him as makeshift seat for annie. “but, hey — not to bum you out more or anything, but did you have a plan ? for what you’ll be doing in new york now ? ” he questioned, voice wavering the thin line between CURIOUS and CONCERNED, but jeff was totally just curious. yeah. 

“i think i’ll DECLINE,” giving him a look, “i don’t think your ROOMMATES would appreciate that.” if jeff alienated himself from his roommates ( especially since they all didn’t know him personally ) annie knew all hell would break lose. sometimes ( despite his tough exterior ) jeff didn’t handle those sort of things well. RIVALS. most turned into BATTLES over who was the schmitty OR that he was an AMAZING pool player. thoughts of a NAKED jeff danced into her thoughts. before promptly locking them in tight box in her own mind. it was best to keep those thoughts for LATER. joining jeff, gently annie placed her pillow on the floor, satisfied to at least have SOMETHING in her apartment. with her life being turned UPSIDE down all of this was a struggle. doe eyes rose from a random spot on the carpet. 

“It’s not the being in the future part that’s weird, it’s the being in New York part”

“I’ve been working on this drawing for an hour and it still isn’t turning out like I’ve been picturing it in my head. Maybe if you weren’t being so loud then I could actually concentrate on this.”

there was a lot of UNCERTAINTY to be felt in the moment. since coming to new york, since finding each other at the bar — jeff knew that there were unsaid things and undecided terms that NEEDED to be brought up at some point, but did some point have to be right now ? things were changing for them, sure, but jeff felt just as happy to watch annie’s challenging display. it felt good to bask in the familiarity of it all. he still held a warm small on his face, even when he allowed his hand to slip from the base of the other’s neck while a hand raised to her hip — & maybe for just a few seconds TOO LONG, jeff’s eyes fell and lingered on the subtle curve of annie’s hips before pulling back up to meet her SASSY gaze. 

“is this where you’ll pull out all your old BACKSTREET BOYS cds and play them on repeat until i admit to their musical genius ??? ” jeff’s brows quirked up as he grinned, white teeth flashing for a few moments before he was left to shrug once again when it came to annie’s line of questioning. he was far from forgetting that halloween when annie had put all her time & energy into that party for the study group and spanish class, but that wasn’t the EXACT reason why ABBA often came to mind when he thought about annie. jeff was just … less sure that annie would appreciate his reasoning ( or if he was willing to admit it ).

“c’mon, like you aren’t always wiggling around for one reason or another,” he gave a partial answer. jeff still had VIVID memories of the private christmas dance & song he’d been treated to during the last glee club debacle ( all baby-talk omitted ) which had to count for something, but still. there were more — daydreams ? fantasies ?? musings ??? of annie dancing WITH him that jeff knew he could bring up, but didn’t completely want to.

jeff slipped away a little further, steps taking him in reverse so he was far enough away from annie to lower himself down onto the edge of her bed. “it’s the lyrics, too. ‘ YOUNG AND SWEET, ONLY SEVENTEEN ’ — they’re more fitting for the first year that we knew each other, but i still …” think about it. he ALMOST winced, admitting how long he’d considered what song fit annie, but instead, jeff steamrolled ahead. “i’ve thought about it,” he gave in, hands pressing into the mattress just behind himself for support. “you have all the DANCING QUEEN potential.”

within seconds he had already caught on to her train of THOUGHT. would she admit to him she owned EVERY cd by the most perfect boy band of the 90′s? leaving him hanging sounded SATISFYING. lips pulled into a half smirk, cheeks flushed. the way jeff wiggled his way into her brain pan, tickled her, filled her with a kind of goofy joy. having someone SOLID from back home made her feel at ease. as BRITTA called it LOOSEY GOOSEY. muscles weren’t so tense that she needed a bubble bath. only her study group could keep her cool & collected. or at least for a little while. until her leg started to wiggle with out of habit to keep MOVING. 

holding her breathe, a laugh finally trickled from her, “how did you know?” eyes starring at him with such WONDER & ADMIRATION. so much intelligence inside his head; it was probably the reason his forehead was rather abnormal? it was his most PROMINENT FEATURE. “do you instantly know what i’m going to say? do you have ESP?” reminding herself of troy and abed. while getting closer to jeff, annie was starting to miss every one else, their shenanigans were what the made group WORK. while some STAYED at greenfield, some slipped away, pulling the group farther & farther apart. all of it was sad to see. annie was ALWAYS trying to keep the group intact. yet nothing could keep them from staying. of the original study group jeff, abed, britta, and herself. selfishly annie was glad it was JEFF here with his confidence and wide smile, it was easy to feel comfortable. despite his overly cocky attitude jeff was jeff; there wasn’t anyone she’d rather be with. 

“please,” waving him off with her hand, “i’m just very---- energetic?? i always have a little PEP in my step even though i was a TERRIBLE cheerleader.” thinking back to her days in high school before community college. annie was a nothing in a blur of popular idiots. feeling like an UGLY DUCKLING she tried everything to fit in including cheerleading. “sometimes you just have to move around to feel a little more positive.”
