Johnny and Gwen grew up together. Their families live in the same neighborhood and they have always been super close. It's the summer before senior year and not everything is going the way Gwen hoped it would. She starts to realize that her dream gu...
I rubbed my eyes. I must have dozed off for a bit. After Tony left I flopped on my bed and buried my face in a pillow. It wasn't new for us to have this kind of a fight, but the part where he was thinking of moving a couple stares away was a new addition. I couldn't help but feeling that he didn't want me despite all his empty words. I rubbed my puffy eyes and rolled over to check my phone.

Stalker...how do you know I'm not still out
Suddenly my bathroom door flew open. I jumped and fell off my bed with a little scream.Johnny clutched his sides and threw his head back laughing. I heard cackles of laughter coming from my sister's room too. "Im sorry" he said (still smiling) offering me his hand as he pulled me off the ground. "Agitha put me up to it." He said finally gaining some composure. I smacked my forehead. "I forgot you and Isabell were coming over tonight." Johnny plopped himself down on my bed. "So how was your hot date?" he said with a smirk. "Surprised you're not somewhere knocking boots in an empty parking lot or something." I shoved him as I sat next to him. "Don't be a pervert. We went out for some tacos that's all"

Johnny sat up "you wanna talk about it" he said with a look of concern. "Nah not really." I said more to my feet than to his face. "Guys! C'mon we're playing body body" Agitha yelled from her room. Johnny got up first and offered me an encouraging smile. "Come on it'll be fun" I couldn't help but smile back at him as I hopped up from my bed. We walked through the bathroom into Agitha's room where the twins were rolling around on the floor wrestling. "Break it up ladies" Johnny said. Our parents had gone out to dinner with Mr. and Mrs. Depp so we had the house to ourselves. We turned off all the lights and played body body for almost an hour. I laughed so hard I almost peed my pants...honestly all of us did.
Johnny and Isabella were finally walking out the door, still clutching their sides with laughter. The twins had gone downstairs to play video games before mom and dad could tell them not to. Agitha grabbed her bag and ran out with Isabell. "If I don't ask mom and dad if I can sleep over then they can't say not" she said to me and winked. I watch her and Isabell cross the street still giggling. Johnny looked back at me and his face suddenly became more serious. "Hey you sure you're alright G." I shrugged "all right well I'm still good to pick you up for swim in the morning...so I'll see you in a few hours." I said "okay" but I avoided his eyes because I felt myself starting to cry a little. Pretty sure he picked up on this so he didn't push it. He waved goodbye as he crossed my yard in the direction of his house. I let out a sigh and then closed the door.

Okay I will definitely try to upload at least one chapter tomorrow. Im going for a slow burn because those are my favorite. It makes it so much more satisfying when the love interests finally get together/kiss (and other things ;)
