“Johnny where are you?” I asked as I walked around the house that Johnny and I shared. “Babe I’m in the music room.” Johnny answered. Johnny and I have been together for about 6 years now, and I’m really in love with him.”Hey babe what are you doing?” I asked him as I sit next to him. “Just working on a couple of bass lines for the new album” He told me. “Oh how cool” I smiled at him. Then I heard a knock on the door. ”Who is it?!” I yelled. “It’s the police open up!!” I heard Jimmy yell on the other side. “Oh haha very funny Jimmy” I said as I opened the door. “I try. Good to see you as always.” Jimmy said as he hugged me. “Good to see you too. Johnny’s in the music room.” “Oh ok.” Later on that night, Jimmy, April, Johnny and I were hanging out and drinking, when my phone rang. It was Ashley. “Hey Toni what are you doing?” She asked me. “Oh just getting drunk with Johnny, April and Jimmy” I told her. “WITHOUT US?! WE WILL BE RIGHT OVER!!” I heard Brian yell in the background. “Haha ok then call the others and you guys bring more booze over. We’re running out.” I told Ashley before I hung up. A few moments later, Brian, Ashley, Matt, Nicole, Kristan, Zacky, Jacoby and Michelle came over and they brought plenty of booze with them. “Oh my god did you guys rob the liquor store or what?” I asked Matt giggling. “No we didn’t. It’s not Seize The Day part 2” Matt told me cracking up along with everybody else. “Hey Zacky where’s your brother and Ali?” I asked him. “Oh they went out to dinner for their anniversary.” He replied. So we spent the whole night getting drunk and having a good time. Then somebody decided to turn on the radio and plugged in my iPod and put on some Usher song.” Johnny I challenge you to a dance battle” Jimmy said all drunk.”Fine bring it on Jimmy” Johnny said trying to get up. “It’s already been broughten short shit” Jimmy said giggling. Let me tell you, watching Johnny and Jimmy trying to outdance each other while they were drunk was the funniest thing I have ever seen in my life. Jimmy won the dance battle and that was one of the best nights of my life. I love being around my friends. They’re like a second family to me, and I love them with all of my heart. I don’t know what I would do without them, especially Johnny. He makes me so happy and he is somebody who I want to spend the rest of my life with. He’s my world and my rock. He was there through the good times and the bad times, and I couldn’t be happier. That night as I laid down in Johnny and I’s bed, I reflected on my life and how great it is. I have great friends, and a loving boyfriend that loves me unconditionally. I knew Johnny pretty much my whole life. We were next door neighbors growing up in Huntington Beach, then my family moved away to Los Angeles, then moved back to Huntington Beach when I started my senior year of high school. Ironically, my family bought the house that was across the street from my old house and Johnny’s house. I remember leaving my house to go to visit a friend, and Johnny saw me, and we locked eyes.”Toni?! Is that you?” he said as he walked across the street to my house.”Johnny! Oh my god it’s been years since we saw each other!” I said as I hugged him. “I know! I missed you so much” he smiled at me. “I missed you too Johnny. Wow you didn’t change one bit” I laughed as I looked him over. “You didn’t change either. You still look beautiful” he told me.”Thanks” I blushed. We went out to dinner that night and we caught up with each other. The next day, he introduced me to his friends who were a band that practiced down the street. “Toni this is Matt, Jimmy, Brian, and Zack, and their girlfriends Nicole, April, Ashley, and Kristan.” He introduced me. They welcomed me with open arms, and they have been my best friends ever since. That weekend, Johnny took me to the Santa Monica Pier and we hung out and played games. That night, we went on the Ferris wheel, and he kissed me and asked me to be his girlfriend, and of course I said yes, and we have been dating ever since.
