    Summary

    Gina Porter knows she can be prideful. She is well aware of her tendencies to be stubborn and iron-willed and resolute (a trait her Mom likes to say she got from her); pushing her muscles dancing until she got the move just right, no matter the toll it takes, all-nighters studying scripts and flashcards until the ink and highlighters stain her fingers to ensure optimal grades in her everyday classes and a meticulous performance during rehearsals. She puts in effort every day to be good, to be the best, she does it all on her own, and is, rightfully so, proud of herself. She starts to believe that she doesn’t need anyone else, that she’s perfectly fine on her own. Her Mom is busy with work to provide for them, to keep her dancing, keep her happy, so she says nothing about the crumbling loneliness, puts on her best face and reminds herself that she is proud and strong and doesn’t need anyone’s help.

    She also knows that it is that line of thinking that has led her here, by herself in Ashlyn’s home, a pulsing ache behind her eyes and a painful scratchiness to her throat.

    -

    or, Gina is sick and in denial, E.J. takes care of her, and more than one person comes to a realization.

    Summary

    So here was the thing: Luke had visions now.

    Not like Back To The Future type shit or something, but when he slept, he got these weird images that seemed like memories but they haven't happened yet.

    He knew this, because most involved Julie.

    Summary

    The truth is, he doesn't really like who he is right now, how angry or sad he feels all the time, so he can't really expect Nini to like him either. She'd always had big dreams for the both of them while Ricky had only flippantly tagged along, but he could be doing something more and Nini had seen it.

    In a weird way, being dumped by Nini Salazar-Roberts is the best thing that ever happened to him. Yeah, he still finds himself wishing he could kiss her, or even just see her, but it makes him realize what he really wants is to be the sort of person Nini Salazar-Roberts wouldn't leave behind in the first place.

    --

    or, a semi-canon/canon divergent universe where the first rini breakup happens after the show, and nini leaves to go to the YAC. ricky has a lot of time on his hands to reflect.
