Johnny Mac BB17: Secret Showmance

Chapter sixteen

John's P.O.V.

I have been thinking a lot. About my life in the real world, about my parents, about my brother. What were they thinking of how I played the game. Do I have fans out there or enemies?

Out of Me and Emma, I think she played a better game. And to make it better, Steve did nothing to make him stand out over Emma.

Steve would take me to the finals, and Emma would take me to the finals, and I would take Emma. So either way I'm in, if it comes down to it I have to persuade Steve to take her, I would have to look like an ass on national television by choosing love over money. Maybe that would cause me to have enemies.

I don't care what people think. I love her and am so happy I found her.

I stood up when I saw Liz enter the room.

"You ready?" I said acting civilly toward her.

"As ready as I can be. Look, I know this game can tear people apart, with a game where your evicting people, it's bound to happen I just want you to know that I understand that you have to save Emma, she's your girl. And you don't have to feel bad about sending me out later."

I nodded and laughed on the inside, careful to keep a straight face.

I don't feel bad whatsoever but decided to go with it anyway.

"Yeah it's sad to see you go, now who's Emma going to talk to about me behind my back."

She looked confused. She never understands my humor.

"So I was thinking though," she said "you know you can't beat Emma."

"I know that." I said "and stop with where your going with this, evicting her isn't an option."

"America is going to hate you, for running the whole game and then putting her first. Letting her win the money."

"Liz why are you all of a sudden actually talking to me, I am not evicting her. But I appreciate the effort."

She stormed out. What is her problem? I can't stand her, but I just hope Emma doesn't fall for whatever she's going to try next.

Liz's P.O.V.

I am terrible at this game playing aspect, that's why I am in the position I am in. Austin was basically playing my game for me and if he were still here I would have been sailing on to the finals. He's going to be so dissapointed that I got evicted right after him.

More importantly: Austin is going to be angry when he finds out hat I played a part in Emma getting him out.

Since Emma basically tricked me into ruining my relationship the least I can do, which I know won't save me, is to try and pin them against each other before the ceremony.

I ran over to Emma, who was in the bathroom doing her hair, and I sat down on the bench behind her.

"Emma?" I said "can I talk to you, it's about Johnny Mac."

"What about him?" She asked all smiley.

"Emma, you're not going to like this, but since I'm leaving I just wanted you to know because I don't want you to get hurt, you have to win the final HOH."

"Why, what are you talking about?"

"I over heard Johnny Mac talking to Steve this morning telling him that their plan is in action. He said 'all we gotta do is win this and we take each other'."

"Liz it's a game, he wants to make sure he gets taken if me or him don't win."

"Emma, if he wins, he's going to take Steve. It would be different if Steve had been the one to say all of that and Johnny just nod but no, he was the one saying all that stuff. They even have a name for their alliance."

She looked confused and hurt. She trusts me and she trusts Johnny Mac. But right now it's looking like she trusts me more.

"What is it? Something stupid?"

"The... Nerdmance." I made something up. And then realized it wasn't even believable.

"The nerdmance?" She questioned "that's very stupid." She started to cry.

"Don't cry, Emma.." I felt bad.

Emma ran out of the bathroom and into the room Johnny was in.

I know Emma is now paranoid and that something is about to go down.
