Nats P.O.V.

This morning with Johnnie was kind of freaky, but I feel bad that I couldn't help more than just sitting. With three inches of door between us it was hard not to just go in there and hug him. But I don't know what kind of dream he had, so that could have made it worse. I want to ask him what his dreams are about but I don't want to make him have to re live it. I'm glad he appears better now though.

We get to Walmart, Johnnie making a list of things to get on his phone. The list looks like this:
Rubber chicken
Milk 3 gallons
Eggs 3 dozen
6 large bags of cereal
5 xxxxl t shirts
Crafting wire
Plastic flowers
Mascara
Contour ??

I'm reading he list over his shoulder as we walk into Walmart. This guy buys some weird shit. My stomach hurts for some reason. I'm holding johnnies hand as we're walking towards the makeup isle when Johnnie spots someone in the toothbrush isle. We've already gotten the milk eggs and cereal.
"Hey! Jay!" He calls out. A startled looking guy with yellow hair and tattoos looks up at Johnnie. He smiles when he sees who it is.
"Hey!" He's struggling to hold a bunch of multi colored toothbrushes.
"Jay, this is Nat, Nat, this is Jay from the skatepark. " I smile as wave.
"Hello." He says to me. I'm still holding johnnies hand. I think I have a jealousy issue.
"So what's with all the toothbrushes?" Johnnie says, laughing.
"I'm running errands for a director... I'm not entirely sure why he wants so many." He says, looking down at his own arms, which are full of tooth brushes.
"I looked you up least night." He starts, not pointedly speaking to just Johnnie, but I'm kind of left out of the conversation. I guess this is why I don't make friends. I have horribly awkward social skills.  "Your videos are pretty cool. And you've go a hell of a lot of followers." He says. Johnnie replys with thanks and starts conversations that I don't pay attention to. I'm feeling really out of it right now. They stand there talking for a few minuets before Johnnie says something in the form of getting going. He waves goodbye to me after he and Johnnie exchange phone numbers. I wave back and force a smile. The guys really hot. Like, really hot.
We continue on to the makeup isle.
"So what do you need contour for?" I ask him. We're standing staring at all of the different little bottles.
"Richie is going to do my full face of makeup and vice versa. But I don't know anything about this stuff." He picks up several different bottles and holds them up to his face.
"What do you think?" I laugh and set them all back on the shelf.
"Well, if your doing a full face your going to need a canceling color for your chin, that will be a blue. Then your going to need primer, finishing powder, contour, your natural tone, a highlight, and you could go for bronzer but I wouldn't recommend it." I pick up different bottles, holding them up to his skin. I have about nine different things in my hands when I notice he's staring at me in awe. "This should do." I say, setting the bottles and jars in the cart.
"How the hell do you know all that stuff?!" Johnnie exclaims, making me laugh.
"I work in acting, so I've learned a thing or two about makeup."
