"Hey!" You yelled at Johnny while laughing.

You two had just gotten done eating dinner at your place and now you were cleaning up the kitchen because a certain boy - who shall not be named - might've started a food fight as you were cooking and now that same boy is spraying you with the spray hose.

"Stop it! I'm already covered in food!" You laughed more which made Johnny smirk.

"I'm just trying to help you clean off. What's so wrong with that?"

"Okay, mr. wise guy. Let's see how you feel after I..." Your voice trailed off as you reached your hand into the bubbly water in the sink and splashed him, covering him in the soapy bubbles.

He wiped his face off while laughing with you.

"Okay, Okay. I've learned my lesson." He reached his hand into the water. "I shouldn't be spraying you with water."

You backed away, thinking he was going to splash you but instead he lifts his hand which has tons of bubbles all over it.

"Why're you backing away? Are you scared of a little bubbles?" His eyes went wide and he did that crazy smile of his.

"Johnny..." You warned as you backed up to the table. "No!"

As he almost reached you, you ran out of the kitchen and into the living room. He was right behind you but you wouldn't let him get you that easily.

As you walked around to the middle of the room, Johnny stepped closer slowly with his hand out. He was dripping soapy water everywhere but it didn't matter at the moment.

"Oh, come on. You got me with it. Now it's my turn."

"Correction: you sprayed me with water then I got you back with the bubbles. So, we're already even."

He shook his head and stood right in front of you now. You didn't realize how close he had gotten until it was too late. He tackled you to the floor and wiped his hand on your cheek then on your shirt.

"Damnit, Johnny." You chuckled.

He didn't say anything as you both were still on the floor. You were starting to wonder why he hadn't moved yet so you could get up.

"Johnny?"

You looked up into his eyes and saw something you'd never noticed before. Johnny looked serious now and his eyes looked almost saddened. You wondered why he looked so upset when you both were just having fun.

"Johnny?" You said again which got his attention.

His gaze averted from you as he rolled off onto the floor. You got up and told him you were just gonna take a shower now. He seemed quite out of it for some reason.

After you finished your shower, you and Johnny headed to your room to go to bed. You lived in an apartment with only one room so you offered for him to sleep on the couch downstairs but he didn't mind sleeping on the floor in your room. You never understood why but Johnny had a reason for everything.

In fact, he had a reason for the awkward moment earlier. There's just something about you that makes his heart go wild and the butterflies in his stomach fly about. He couldn't stop this feeling even if he wanted to. There was just something there that he's been longing for since you both were 18 - where you first met. You were constantly on his mind, rattling his thoughts every chance you got. He couldn't control a single thing while around you. He had come to terms not too long ago that he was fully in love with you but he couldn't ever tell you this. He knows you love him but as a best friend should. You couldn't possibly love him more which makes him stay silent of his feelings for you.

You hopped on your bed and tossed one of your fluffy pillows to Johnny who had gotten a comfy blanket from your closet. He placed everything in the way that was comfortable for him and lied down, looking straight at the ceiling above.

"Johnny?" You called out but he didn't answer which made you sigh. "Good night."

You flicked the lamp off and rolled around in bed, falling almost immediately asleep. Johnny, on the other hand, wasn't even remotely close to sleeping.
His eyes moved from the ceiling towards your bed with an ache in his heart. He got to hear your amazing laugh all night long then he almost ruined everything. The moment you two landed on the floor when he tackled you was where the fun stopped. He can remember it so clearly. How close the two of you were, your lips inches away from his, the laugh that vibrated between the two of you but then... Johnny nearly leaned down to kiss you. He thankfully stopped before you noticed anything but that's when it got awkward and you tried to get him off.

He's always been good at hiding his feelings for you but, lately, it's been difficult. It's like a pitcher full to the rim with water that he's walking around with. He can't stop spilling just the slightest amount whenever he takes a step. He knew then that you'd never love him in the way that he loves you. He could never let you know for fear of losing you completely. He never wants to make things awkward between the two of you again like he did that night even if you hadn't known anything.

He rolled over onto his side, facing your bed and blinked away a few tears that wanted to be set free.

"I love you." He whispered ever so softly before shutting his eyes and trying to forget the whole ordeal.
