Jonerys Fic Preview

Soooo, I’ve been working on 4 side writing projects. I’ve never worked on this many at one time. I don’t know what’s wrong with me but we’re just gonna go with the flow. Below is a preview of what I’ve been working on. It’s a Jonery’s Modern AU, where they grew up together and become best friends (one of my personal favorite fic tropes lol) This started as a one-shot but has grown into a 26 pages plot bunny that I had to get out while I work on my main Jonery’s fic and my Harry Potter fic. Not sure when I will post it, but figured there is no harm in sharing it. 

Soo here we go, if you like it just let me know, also this is a random excerpt and the fic does not start out here, this is just the scene that popped in my head and got me writing:

Once in a Lifetime by Enygma0710

Modern AU, Jonerys

“Did anyone ever tell you that your choice in music is weird, Jon?” 

Jon kept his eyes on the TV screen. “I prefer eclectic but then again this is coming from the same person that spent a few weeks learning the dance to ‘Single Ladies’?” 

Dany threw a pillow at Jon, hitting him in the head. “Never disrespect Queen Bey in my presence, Snow.” 

Jon cursed. “Thanks to you, I just lost the campaign and died.” 

Dany rolled her eyes and kept looking through his CD collection. “Eclectic is right, you have The Stranglers, The Clash, Prince, Jimi Hendrix, A Tribe Called Quest, Nas, Wu Tang, Pharcyde, Talking Heads, Beastie Boys, Tupac, Nine Inch Nail, Nirvana, Cranberries, The Ramones, and wait what is this?” She held a CD on her finger. “Justin Timberlake?” 

Jon paused his game. “It’s Sansa’s but Rick Rubin produced it so,” he shrugged. 

Dany laughed. “You’re an interesting young man Jon Snow.” 

Jon paused his game and looked over at her sprawled on his bed with his heavy CD binders surrounding her. “What exactly are you doing?”

“I need music for my ipod nano Rhae got me.” 

“Why not ask Missy’s brother, he’s a DJ.” 

Dany laughed, dryly. “Have you known any DJ to let anyone touch their music collection?” 

Jon gave a noncommittal shrug, “Point.” 

“Besides most of his music is on his laptop and he won’t let anyone near it.” She flipped through another section of his binder. “Where did you get all these CD’s from? I don’t remember you having this many.” 

Dany continued to flip through Jon’s CD binder, when she noticed he was still staring at her with a contemplative look. He paused his game and stood up, walking towards his closet. She could hear him  rummaging around before he returned with a large, grey storage trunk. He gestured for her to sit down next to him. 

“What is this?” she asked as Jon, unlocked the trunk and opened it. Dany’s mouth dropped in surprise. The storage trunk was filled with an array of personal items Dany leaned forward, Jon nodded an ‘okay’ before she started rummaging through the trunk. There were stacks of CDs, cassette tapes and vinyl records in one half of the trunk. The other half held old colorful concert shirts, wrist bands with dates written on them in black marker, a few music magazines, a stuff teddy bear with a yellow plastic pacifier around it’s neck, a stack of ticket stubs held together by a rubber band, a few loose pictures and what looked like two small brown photo albums. She picked up a faded picture from the top of the pile. The picture was of two young women, both with long dark hair, arms wrapped around each other. The one on the right was smiling brightly, giving the peace sign with one hand, while the one on the left was sticking her tongue out at the camera, giving the sign of the horn. She flipped the photo over and saw written in faded blue ink ‘Lollapalooza ‘91’

“Jon, is this?” 

“My mom, yep” He reached over and pointed to the one with her tongue hanging out. “That’s my mom and Ashara.” 

Dany held the picture in her hand and looked at Jon, “You look like her.” 

“That’s what my uncles always tell me. I haven’t really gone through it, not sure if I want to go through it yet, but-” he pulled out a stack of the CDs. “See if any of these are helpful for your ultimate summer mix.” 

Dany held the CD’s in her lap and moved away from Jon as he started up the game again.  She picked up the first few CD cases. “Thanks.” They slipped into a companionable silence until Jon cursed loudly and threw his controller.  

Dany took the opportunity as her curiosity about Lyanna’s trunk started to grow. “So the trunk-”

“Uncle Benjen brought it down a few months ago.” He answered. “Apparently Ashara left it behind and didn’t tell him. He almost threw it out. It’s all of Lyanna’s things from when she was traveling.” 

“You said you haven’t gone through yet?” 

“I’ve gone through the music, I now know where I get my taste from,” He chuckled. “She had a hell of a collection; I found some rare mix-tapes and a first pressing of Nirvana’s ‘Nevermind’ in there.” He put down the controller and pulled the vinyl in question out for Dany. “Mossador is going to help me convert some of the mix tapes to mpg.” 

“Have you gone through the photo albums yet?”

Jon shook his head. “Can’t believe you’re going to spend the entire summer in Dorne with Rhaegar.” 

She ignored the urge to call out Jon’s change tactic, instead she answered him. “I know, I had planned to get a job this summer, thought about lifeguarding with you.”

He shot her an incredulous look. “You? A lifeguard? You’d burn.” 

“You’re one to talk, Northerner.” Dany tilted her head to the side. “Why are you going to miss me?” 

Jon smiled “Hell no, just one less person to pester me this summer.” Jon dodged another pillow. “Besides, you’re breaking our plans.” 

“Plans?” 

Jon nodded and stood up, walking over to his desk. He pulled a small box from the shelves in front of it and dug through the box before pulling out a very crumpled piece of paper. He moved and sat down next to her on his bed, handing it to her. 

Dany unfolded the paper and peered at the writing, before her eyes widen in surprise. “You kept this?” 

“Why wouldn’t I? it was the first summer where we weren’t trying to kill each other. ” 

Dany cleared her throat. “Dany and Jon’s awesome summers plans.” She scanned the paper. “These are adventurous to say the least.” 

Jon leaned over. “See,” his finger dragged towards the bottom of the page. “According to our plans; this summer we were supposed to go backpacking along the bone mountains to either Yi Ti or Asshai. It looks like our eleven year old minds couldn’t make a decision on which one.” 

Dany laughed. “It also appears that we were also going to go skydiving in Naath and you Jon, were going to scuba diving in the Jade Sea.” 

Jon shrugged. “See plans, that you are not keeping. My twelve year old heart is broken.” 

“What about your sixteen year old heart?” 

Jon looked up to see Dany eyeing him carefully. She was biting her lip; a habit she’d had as long as he had known her. 

“Honestly?” 

She nodded. 

“I’m going to miss my best friend.” 

Dany gave a toothy grin, nudging her shoulder against his, “Same.” 

“Did Rhaegar tell you where you guys would be traveling?” 

“We’ll start in Dorne so we can meet up with Elia and the kids. I’ll be there for a week or two while he takes care of some business there, then we’re off to the Free Cities. Elia was able to arranged a few dance sessions, through her contacts in Braavos.” 

“I thought you gave up on being a professional dancer?” 

“I did for a while there,” Dany stood up from his bed and walked across the room. “It’s just dancing reminds me of my mother.” She turned and faced him. “All the dance recitals, rehearsals she was always there in the front row.” She performed a chaine turn in front of him. “I talked to Rhae about it and I decided to continue dancing, it helps when I start feeling down. I’ll never get over losing my parents but this is a way for me to keep a part of her with me you know?” 

 “Does this mean you’ll be dragging me to more dance recitals?”

“You bet your ass it does.”  She laughed and began rummaging through a stack of college brochures on his desk. “Where are you applying in the Fall?” 

Jon moved and sat back down in the bean bag chair in front of the T.V. “When do you leave?” 

Avoiding my question again. “Monday.” 

“Well, let’s use our time wisely.” He tossed her a controller. “Halo 3 or Gears of War 3?” 

Dany plopped besides him. “Halo of course.” 

They watch the game load and were left playing one final game before spending their first summer apart.
