Monsters University - Truth behind the ROR frat

Chapter 24: The Winner Is...

The sun was high in the sky the next morning, the day was warm. Joey was with Janelle under her favorite large tree on campus. Laying down on a soft blue blanket, arms folded behind her back, she had a pillow under her wings, supporting them. 

"I'm glad you're okay, I can't believe Carrie did that," Janelle said shaking her head, taking a sip of her coffee. "Do you know what's going to happen to her?"

"My aunt said she got kicked out of the PNK's and can no longer join any sorority, if she does anything else like that again she's getting expelled," Joey said, looking up at the clouds in the sky. 

"And, how's Johnny?" Janelle wiggled her eyebrows, giggling as Joey hit her leg. 

"He's...good, we're both good," She mumbled, shrugging her shoulders. 

"You sure? You seem out of it?" 

"Just stressed for the end of the Scare Games is all, it's a lot of pressure," Joey glanced towards Janelle who nodded with a sweet smile. 

"That's what Percy has been saying, it's been a lot this year," 

Joey held her tongue, she didn't know if Janelle knew that he was the reason Javier was outed. She looked away from her, exhaling deeply. 

"Okay, why don't you like him?" Janelle blurted out. 

"What?" 

"You make a face every time I mention him or the JOX's, what happened?" Janelle crossed her arms, Joey sighed, sitting up. 

"He and the JOX were the ones who took the picture of Javi and Randall and forced him to come out," Joey said, waiting for Janelle to get defensive.

"What? That was...Percy?" From the way, her eyes fell it was obvious that she truly didn't know. Joey nodded, Janelle sadly looked to the ground, rubbing her hands together. 

"I thought you knew," Joey said awkwardly, unsure of what to say next. 

"I'm going to go talk to him," Janelle said, packing up her bag, grabbing her coffee, and leaving the blanket. 

"That's not going to end well," She mumbled to herself, rubbing at her eyes. Her phone dinged in her pocket.

Dummy: If you're free we can have breakfast at the ROR house, the others have class this morning. 

Joey: Alright, I'll be over

Dummy: ok, see you soon baby <3

Joey exhaled, she had to talk to Johnny about what they were doing. She packed up her things, slinging her bag over her shoulder and folding her blanket. 

She walked to the ROR house, she had been given a key and opened the door, walking to the kitchen. She set her stuff down on the breakfast table, she heard Johnny walk down the stairs. 

"Hey, I'm glad you're here," His arms encompassed her waist, burying his face into her neck. She turned around, moving his hands off of her and holding them. "Is everything alright?" 

"We have to talk, Johnny," 

"Okay, about what?" 

"What is this?" Joey said, there was true confusion written on his face. 

"A hug?" 

"What are we, Johnny? We made a fake relationship to boost the ROR's fame, and now you're hugging me, and calling me nicknames, and..." She trailed off, looking away from him with a small blush on her face. 

"I can stop with the nicknames if you want," 

"That's not what I mean and you know it, Johnny," She didn't mean to sound rude, but she was getting overwhelmed. She let go of his hands, putting them in her jacket pockets. "I mean, not even 3 months ago, you hated me, and you were rude to me for no reason. What changed?"
