JFCleo

JFCleo is the het ship between JFK and Cleopatra Smith from the Clone High fandom.

Season 1
ESCAPE TO BEER MOUNTAIN: A ROPE OF SAND

JFK walks in on Abe washing his hands in the boy's bathroom to tell him to stay away from Cleopatra, as he has his eyes on her and wants to sleep with her. In the next scene, JFK and Cleo are sharing a milkshake at the Grassy Knoll as Abe, Gandhi and Joan watch them and discuss going to JFK's party. Abe comes up to their table to ask if he can be reinvited to JFK's party if he brings beer. JFK agrees and tells him to be there at eight before he leaves with Cleo, holding her hand as they walk out.

In a call to the teen crisis hotline Joan of Arc set up to get Abe's attention, JFK calls and says that he has a compulsion to want to sleep with Cleo. Mr. Sheepman, on the other side of the call, asks him what could be driving him to act so "macho" for Cleo. JFK explains that he has two gay foster dads which could drive him to want to act more straight. Mr. Sheepman hangs up in disbelief.

At the party, Cleo and Abe kiss unexpectedly. JFK and another student are sleeping together in a boat in an above-ground pool that Abe and Cleo are kissing next to. JFK sits up and sees Cleo kissing Abe, and he calls her a cheater, ironically, as he is actively sleeping with another woman. He gets out of the boat to approach the two, and he asks Abe what he thinks he's doing kissing Cleo. Abe claims that him and Cleo will now be together forever, and JFK emphasizes that she's just kissing Abe because she's drunk. She pulls away and JFK asks her who she'll choose between the two of them. Abe tells her that he cares deeply about her, and JFK shows his abs and says that they're firm. Cleo says that it's hard to choose, and that she needs time alone to think it over. She walks away dramatically.

Cleo calls Joan's crisis hotline to ask for advice about choosing between JFK and Abe. Joan tells Cleo that JFK is a jerk that would only benefit her image, and says that Abe is a kind, sensitive person. When Joan finds out she's talking to Cleo, she tells her that she should not only date JFK but sleep with him as soon as possible. However, seeing that Abe is upset, Joan flips and says that Cleo should go for Abe instead. Cleo comes out and tells the two boys that she will be choosing Abe over JFK. JFK gets upset and storms off.

The next day, after Abe is seen as a loser for bringing non-alcoholic beer to JFK's party, Cleo and JFK are back walking to class together. The pair walk by Abe and Cleo slips a paper into Abe's hand as they walk off.

EPISODE TWO: ELECTION BLU-GALOO

JFK stands with Cleo as she is ready to unveil a moat separating the school from the "special ed classroom," a small, run-down trailer, as one of her moves as class president. She suddenly gets emotional as she tells the crowd that she will not be running for student body president again in the upcoming election for the next school year and walks off dramatically. Inside the school, JFK is by her side to console her only because he feels he needs to as her boyfriend. She tells him that she doesn't want to talk about it, and he starts to say he's grateful because he doesn't want to listen to her problems as she cuts him off and tells him anyway. She begins talking about being elected class president freshman year, and he taps his watch behind her in annoyance. She cries and JFK puts his hand on her shoulder to comfort her. Cleo explains that she won't be running again because of the school's term limits rule on school presidents, and she hints that she wants JFK to run for president instead and win, so that he can remove the term limits and then endorse her as his replacement when he inevitably steps down. She strokes his cheek as he sounds confused, which she takes as a yes to her proposition and she thanks him for his courage to help her. He just asks if they can make out now, and she agrees that they can. They start making out as Abe walks in to ask if she's okay.

A.D.D.: THE LAST 'D' STANDS FOR DISORDER

JFK helps Cleo spread awareness for her Awareness Fair by following her around and helping her put up posters, most of which she has plastered over students against the walls of the cafeteria. Cleo plasters a sign over Joan in the same way, and then claims that she didn't see Joan there. JFK says that he saw her but chose not to say anything. Cleo explains to the regular group that she will be creating and manning a booth at the fair featuring her open-mouth kissing anyone who comes up and pays her for it. Gandhi says that he'll take a kiss right then and holds out a dollar bill, and JFK punches him in the face and tells him to show Cleo some respect. JFK takes Gandhi's dollar and tells Cleo that he'll take a kiss right then. Cleo agrees and the two make out, with Abe in the middle watching them. When they pull away, Cleo says that the kiss was hot and that she's sure the girls who come to her booth won't be disappointed. JFK then gets defensive, explaining that he won't participate in her booth because he doesn't want to kiss just anyone. She says that she doesn't either, but he doesn't see her complaining. JFK then gets upset and says that he's tired of being a third wheel to Cleo and President Dog from the previous episode, who Cleo is drawn to just because he has power in the school. JFK asks what happened to them as a couple and then storms off angrily. President Dog follows him.

As part of Principal Scudworth's newest plan to try to relate more to his student body, he talks to JFK in a therapy-like style in his office. JFK is laying on a flat sofa and tells Scudworth that he's been upset recently because of his breakup with Cleo. Scudworth quickly grows uncomfortable as JFK gets emotional and cries as he says that Cleo was the first girl he had real feelings for. He continues to cry as Scudworth drops him down into a dungeon under his office.

Fanon
JFCleo is often paired with Arcoln, LinCleo and JoanFK because of the love triangles present between Abe, Cleo, Joan and JFK in both seasons of the show. JFK and Cleo are shown as dating only briefly for the first couple episodes before Abe and Cleo begin dating instead, and JFK pursues almost every other female clone, including Joan. In the second season, JFK and Cleo's romantic past is rarely, if ever, discussed. Because of the brevity of the relationship, there are only 8 JFCleo fan fictions on AO3, and it is considered a rarepair.
