My dad made me steak (unbeknownst to me) because I had a lot of bloodwork this morning and that is sooooo Jack and Kelly from the y2k verse.
Y2K and Kelly at the Hillary duff tour
kelly and benji are def working part time jobs over the summer.. they 100% have parents who encourage them to work and earn for themselves while also having time to have fun i think.. I can also see them volunteering
I’ve said before, Kelly strikes me as a lifeguarding type. I was thinking about it and I think Benji working at a petting zoo would suit him. Works with kids, works with animals, gets abused by that one sheep that hates him. Either that or he’s at like a sports camp and he is the only strict teenaged boy counselor and Jack is very proud of that.
They probably only work 3 or 4 days a week anyway, Jack and y2k feel that the kids should enjoy their summers while they still have them 100%. They don’t need the money. Just a little experiance. They aren’t grinding to get by like Jack and Y2K were. They’re not being punished, they’re just trying to get a foot up in the world. They still take a couple vacations.
Thinking abt Jack and y2k and how no one really understands how they grew up, how they both scraped by, what things were like where they’re from except of corse for eachother.
Someone asks Jack (probably Robby) how him and y2k handle his hours. How Y2K doesn’t get mad about them, or complain that he works so much, or misses big events.
Jack just lasts.
“Dude I was deployed the first 3 years of our relationship. She saw me in the flesh a grand total of 10 times. Y2K is happy to see me even an hour a day”
Y2K objectifies the SHIIIIT out of Jack whenever she sees him in his dress uniform
Y2K AND JACKKKKK
It strikes Y2K reader one day, randomly and suddenly.
Kelly and her friends, as is apparently en vogue with teenagers these days, wanted to go thrifting for vintage clothes cheap. And as the stay at home mom who said no to few things, of corse you took them.
And watching them look through low rise jeans and brightly colored tanks, it hits her now novel this is for Kelly. Because for about… at this point, half her life? That was just how she shopped. Not novelty. Not fun, not vintage. That was what she could afford. And it settled in her stomach weird, and lingers there after bubble tea and pandan waffles.
She brings it up to Jack in bed one day.
“Took the girls thrifting earlier. Apparently that’s what they’re into now.”
Jack snorted, not looking up from his phone yet. “Sounds about right.”
She rolled into his side, and Jack put his phone down. There was something here.
“I didn’t realize how different her life is from how mine was” you admitted.
Jack understands.
“Well, that’s the point, isn’t it? That their lives are better than ours?”
You nod, nuzzling into his chest further. “It just feels weird. I don’t know.”
Jack gets it. He hummed.
“I get it. Sometimes I wanna wring Benji’s neck for the bratty crap he says, but then I remember he doesn’t even realize how it sounds to me. It’s good that their lives are like this.” Jack reminded you.
He’s right. You know he’s right.
