Chapter 46
Ashley tried to text Johnny to get his exact location, but he didn't answer. It was odd of him to not answer her. At this point, Ashley was worried for her boyfriend's well-being. She left the dorms to look for him at the auto shop on campus, the Oil Spill gas station, the tenements, Blue Balls Pool House, and was about to check the underpass when Gord stopped her.
"Ash, darling! I haven't seen you in ages," he greeted with outstretched arms.
She returned the hug, slightly surprised to have found Gord near New Coventry.
What are you doing here?
Gord shrugged, "I was taking a stroll, then I couldn't take being around so many tasteless peasants that I was heading back to the Harrington House. What are you up to?"
I'm looking for Johnny, have you seen him?
Gord clicked his tongue, "You're still with that greaseball? Pity. You would have done very well with Bif."
Ashley rubbed her temple, past guilt of the dishonorable fight flashed in her mind. She knew that Bif still had a massive crush on her, and it broke her heart that he had resorted to avoiding her to get over it. Pinky kept Ashley updated with the Preppies, and what the bobbed hair princess knew was that Bif, regardless of his attempts to get over Ashley, still cared for her. Deeply.
I'm with Johnny, Gord. Whether any of you like it or not. Remember that. She replied coldly. Ashley hated it when the preps spoke of her choice of boyfriend, talking down on her and him. They did it passive aggressively and it drove her insane.
"I know." Unfortunately, he wanted to add, but knew better. Gord valued his face too much to have it wrecked by Ashley's wrath. He took in his friend's appearance, frowning at her choice of clothes. "Really hunny? You're wearing that?" Ashley glanced down, frowning alongside with him.
What's wrong with what I have on?
Ashley wore black boots, dark skinny jeans, with black tights underneath for extra warmth. She had on a beige long sleeve thermal shirt, an open flannel, and a green jacket. She thought she looked cute, baggy, casual, her outfit kinda reminded her of Sam Winchester, her favorite Winchester.
"Ash you look like a lumberjack," Gord tutted. "I think we need to go on a shopping spree."
Ashley wanted to deny Gord's suggestion, she wanted to find Johnny and see what was wrong. But before she could do anything, Gord grabbed her arm and dragged her towards Bullworth Town, "Come on, we'll work our way up and go to Old Bullworth Vale."

Jimmy by the underpass, slightly curious to see what Johnny needed help with. At first he was out and about the stinky old town to waste time, he was bored out of his mind. After all, he only ended up doing favors for residents and other students. Jimmy was near New Coventry, so might as well find the leader of the greasers."So you came?" A voice sounded, Johnny swaggered around Jimmy, like predator and prey.
Jimmy replied lamely,"Yep." He began to regret showing up, solely because he felt this was a huge waste of his time, not that he had other things to do. Still, anything else was better than being with his friend's boyfriend.
"I bet you think I'm funny, don't you? A laughing stock.." Johnny sneered, giving him a threatening glare.
Jimmy denied his accusation, "Not really. I mean you dress a little weird but..."
"Yeah. And everyone is laughing at me. All of you. At me," Johnny all but growled. He couldn't believe that this maggot had the audacity to lie to his face after what his best friend had told him he's seen.
