"It's just right up here."

We turn into Johnnie's driveway and park the car. After a few seconds of silence, a blonde Bryan exits the house and waves for Johnnie. He exits the convertible, shuts the door, and walks up to Bryan. Mom whispers to me, "Is this Bryan?" I nod after a couple seconds. She throws her head back to the cushioned seat, saying, "Alex, now that you've gone through all that today, I completely swear, you never have to be there again."

I glare at her, confused, as I ask her, "Me? What about you?" She inhales a deep sigh and doesn't respond for several seconds. She then replies, "I'd still have to go down there. Tell him I'm leaving him. That I'm going to divorce him. If he does anything, he'll be arrested. I swear on that." Johnnie waves at us to meet his roommate. We give a few short glances, then exit the car and stride our way up to the front door. Bryan comments, "I don't think we've actually met. I'm Bryan." He holds out his hand, and I shake it with a firm grip. I say, "I'm Alex." My mother then shakes his hand.

After shaking his hand she says, "I apologize for the inconvenience, we just..." She, Johnnie, and I exchange short glances, "Johnnie offered. My sister's place is two towns away and we can't just-" Bryan holds up a hand and comments, "It's all fine, miss. If you don't mind my asking, what's your name?" She responds, "Claire."

Johnnie comments, "I'll go get your bags." Wanting to ask him a question, I say, "I'll get mine." He walks to the backseat of the red vehicle and I follow. I whisper to him as he opens the door, "Johnnie, I have a question for you." Looking up at me, he says, "Ask away." I look to my right to see my mom and Bryan conversing. "Why did you volunteer to allow us to stay here for a little while? You honestly didn't have to do that." He hands me my duffel bag and I grip it in my left hand and I bring it over my shoulder. His response was, "Just trying to be a good guy. And plus, I wanted to see you more." I smile then give him a kiss on the cheek.

We stride to the front door and Bryan tells my mother, "I can show you the spare room you'll be staying in really quick." Mom glances at me for a second, then responds, "Alright." Bryan invites us inside the house, mother grabs her own bag from Johnnie's shoulder,  and she and Bryan head upstairs to mom's new room, which was only two rooms away from Johnnie's. Johnnie asks, "Would you like to see where you will slumber?" I grin and nod my head slyly. We step up the small stairs and he leads me down a long corridor. We stop at a white door with a band poster for Bring Me The Horizon and a photograph of himself on a beach in black and white with black spray paint, saying, "Johnnie's room." He chuckles and says, "I kinda had limited time to decorate so..." Instead of saying anything, I smile and kiss his cheek again. He opens the door and we enter, then he turns on the light. The walls are painted white with black carpeted floor, band posters of My Chemical Romance, Metro Station, Green Day, Panic! At The Disco, All Time Low, Asking Alexandria, Sleeping With Sirens, Pierce The Veil, and so many more for me to count. His bed has The Nightmare Before Christmas bedsheets with an American Horror Story, "We are all freaks" pillow along with two other large black pillows. The other bed is completely bare with one grey spreadsheet across it with three oak drawers right next to the side with a ukulele and acoustic guitar on the corner of the bed.

"I know it's not really a lot, but it's all we got. I'll go get some sheets and blankets, I'll be right back." He then kisses my cheek and exits the room down the hall towards the closet. I look around his room, seeing that we actually had more in common than I had thought. We liked basically all the same music and shows. Hm. As I look out the window, I see a quiet breeze swim over the trees and rose bushes, sweeping away few leaves.

Johnnie comes up behind me, placing a firm grip on my shoulder, and making me jump. He closes the door shortly after. Chuckling, he says, "Sorry. Couldn't help myself." He walks to the bed and places sheets on my bed. "I'll help put them on." As he unfolds the black and green sheets, I whisper in his ear, "Can't we wait? Just a little while longer." He turns around as I place my hand on his beating chest. I kiss his neck, causing him to receive a few shivers down his spine. I kiss all the way up his neck, and up to his ear. Gently sucking on his earlobe, he clutches on to my body, fingers slightly scratching my back. His left hand makes its make up my waist, up my chest, my collarbone, and then my neck. Around the back of my neck, he gently holds as he twirls tiny strands of my hair at the nape of my neck. He kisses my neck and I hold him around his torso as he slightly leans me back. I let out a quiet moan as he continues to kiss me. Slowly panting into his ear, I make small squeaks here and there. He growls into my neck as I press myself closer to him. He turns me around to where I'm sitting on the bed and wraps my legs around his hips. He pulls me up to him, making me wrap my arms around his neck. God, he's strong for someone his size.

Johnnie then lies me down on the bed and climbs on top of me. Placing one hand on my waist and the other behind my back, he pulls my thin body closer to his. I gently tug his raven colored hair, slowly sniffing his scent. He pulls my shirt and kisses my bare chest in a passionate movement.

We both hear a few knocks tap on the door, we both stare at the door for a few seconds, then we glance at each other before rapidly standing on the carpeted floor. I comb back my blue hair with my fingers as Johnnie fixes his clothes, then I sit down on the bed and fold my arms. Johnnie exclaims, "Who is it?"

Within a few short seconds, a response says, "It's Kyle. Can I come in?" Johnnie stammers as he replies, "Um...uh, sure." Kyle enters but stands by the door. He clutched his hands together and comments, "I hear we have two new roomies." Johnnie and I both nod. Kyle grins and says, "Great. Also, it's nice to properly meet you when I'm not being a dick or you're unconscious."

I chuckle and say, "You weren't being a dick." He chuckles and exclaims, "Welp, I guess I was in a 'dickish' mood then. Johnnie, can I see you for a few seconds?" He and Johnnie exchange several glances, then Johnnie responds, "I guess."

Johnnie exits the room, as does Kyle, then Kyle shuts the door quietly.

I hear murmuring through the door, very easy to hear. Kyle asks, "So, Johnnie, how's that crush going with her?" Johnnie puffs a sigh, then responds, "I guess it's going well. I mean, I know that we've known each other for a few days, but God, Kyle. The way I feel about her is like how you feel about Meghan." Kyle chuckles and comments, "So you're really in love with her then?" Johnnie chuckles and says, "I think so."

I gasp lowly and feel my heart beat from ninety to nothing. Covering my mouth I feel my cheeks burst with a flammable warmth. 

Johnnie says afterwards, "I haven't properly asked her out yet, but we've kissed. And...then we made out." Kyle chuckles and warns him, "Just don't go too fast or you'll regret it." I facepalm myself.

"We won't, Kyle. We're trying to take it slow."

But that's the thing.

Were we?
