Late January 2002
Chris opened the door early morning to find Jonny sitting on the floor cursing while playing his guitar. Chris walked over to him and asked, "Jonny, how long have you been here?" Jonny's puffy red eyes looked up at him and he laughed, "She dumped me, I've been here since 10:30 PM."
Chris looked at his watch, "It's six, maybe you should take the day off or something." Jonny nearly began to cry, "She kicked me out." Chris kneeled down, "I'm sorry Jonny." Jonny rubbed his eyes and shook his head, "It's not your fault."
Chris patted his back, "If you need to crash at my place for a night, I'd do that for you. You know that, right?" Jonny put his guitar down and hugged Chris and repeated his thanks a few times before letting him go.
Chris sat down next to him. Jonny asked, "Why'd you get here so early?" Chris took a moment, "I had some ideas." Jonny smiled, "Don't let me stop you then." Chris shook his head, "You know, I already forgot them."
Jonny frowned, "Thought she'd be the one." Chris let Jonny lean against him before saying, "That's what I thought with Gwen. It's been tougher recently with her." Jonny closed his eyes, "Sorry to hear that." Chris sighed, "It's fine. I haven't talked to her in a week. She needed a break."
Jonny shrugged, "Least we got one more thing in common." Jonny grabbed Chris' hand and squeezed it. It didn't feel too awkward as they sat there in silence. Jonny scrunched his face, "I think I'm done with girls." Chris shrugged before processing what those words meant. Jonny got up from the floor first.
Jonny said, "I think I'm gonna take a walk, wanna join me?" Chris said, "You know it's raining." Jonny nodded, "Yeah, this time I have a jacket though." Chris nodded, "Alright, we can go then." Jonny got up carefully and grabbed Chris' hand before walking out the door.
Before being pummeled by rain Jonny pulled his hand away to put up his hood before walking outside. Chris grabbed his hand again as they continued to walk. While crossing the road they were honked at.
Immediately after a woman shouted, "Fags!" Jonny quickly pulled away from his hand and looked down. Chris rolled his eyes, "Ignorant people." Jonny nodded, "Yeah, can't believe it. It's 2002 people should be more accepting."
Chris said, "I hate mornings." Jonny shook his head, "I love mornings and waking up early." Chris shook his head, "Not possible, you must be some sort of lizard."
Jonny rolled his eyes and asked, "Wanna head back?" Chris nodded, "Yeah." Chris took Jonny's hand again and Jonny turned his head to kiss Chris' cheek.
"Thanks again Chris," Jonny whispered. Chris nodded and grinned as they walked back to the studio.
