A week later
Annie's POV:
It's been a week and I haven't heard another word from Johnny. The only person from that family I've talked to within the past week is Asher. He told me John isn't talking to him either. Everything has just gone south since Asher got here. Is it his fault? No. In my opinion I feel as if this is my fault. Everything is m fault. Everyone would be better off if I were never here. I sat on my bed with all these thoughts running around my mind until there was a soft knock on my door. I looked up and I saw someone I didn't expect. Mr. Johnny Vincent Orlando
Johnny: h-hey
Annie: hi...
Johnny: do you mind if I come in?
Annie: n-no...I don't mind
Johnny slowly walked into my room and sat down on my bed next to me.
Johnny: so...I wanted to call you, but I thought it'd be better to apologize in person...then I thought this should be the best apology in existence...so it took me a week and where did I get? Nowhere because I didn't write anything down on this index card I'm holding in my hand. So why am I holding it? To make me look like I'm prepared? Of course. But am I prepared? Of course...not.
I chuckled at Johnny's explanation.
Johnny: well...I'm happy you laughed at that...but dead ass I really am unprepared as fuck
Annie: well that's just a normal day for you
Johnny: I mean...your not wrong. Seriously though...I'm here to apologize...I'm sorry for the way acted. I was just...mad? Upset? Jealous? Yeah...that one...and I guess I didn't know how to act. I'm deeply sorry for what I've done...I hope you can forgive me
I sat next to him in silence. I was lost in his eyes. The more I look at him the harder it is to describe him. He's just too perfect.
Johnny: Annie? Anns? You there?
I was snapped out of my daze
Annie: yeah...yeah...I forgive you
Johnny: really!?
Annie: I mean...what you did was wrong-
Johnny: and I know that, but I'm hoping you can still forgive me...It was really messed up and I'm terribly sorry. I broke what we had
Annie: no you didn't John
Johnny: I did and you can't lie...your never gonna trust me the way you did before...
Annie: we all make mistakes John...it's human so don't beat yourself up over it...I forgive you and that's all that matters ok?
Johnny: ...alright
He brought his eyes to meet mine. Ugh! His eyes are perfect! He's perfect! We sat there for a good minute in silence, but the non awkward kind until he turned his head and began sitting up
Johnny: well I should probably get going...I've gotta get home before my mom questions where I've gone
Annie: alright...I'll walk you out
I walked him to the door and opened it for him
Johnny: so I'll cya at the park tomorrow before school?
Annie: yeah
Johnny: ok cool...well...cya tomorrow
Annie: cya tomorrow John
He walked off as I closed the door behind him. I turned around and Hayley was standing at the bottom of the stairs.
Annie: ok before you do anything let me-
I was cut off by Hayley's loud and obnoxious squeal.
Hayley: you two are so cute!
Annie: Hayley why are you so excited?
Hayley: because at this rate you two are bound to be dating by the end of the month
Annie: I hate to burst your bubble but that's not happening
Hayley: why not?
Annie: were too close. I've known him for eleven years.
Hayley: basing a relationship off of a friendship isn't always bad. It can be good. Besides, I see the way you two look at each other
Annie: what?
Hayley: yeah. When you to look at each other it's as if your trying to hold in a passionate kiss that could end up leading to kids
Annie: what's that suppose to-oh
Hayley: oh my gosh your slow
Annie: did I ask for your opinion
Hayley: whatever! Just stating facts. Now if you excuse me I've got some calls to accept
Hayley began running up the stairs
Annie: tell Avi I said hi!
Hayley: shut up!
Hayley yelled from the top. I heard her door close. I sat myself down on the couch and rested my head on my palm. What am I feeling? I don't even know anymore. Johnny apologized for being a bitch, I forgave him and for some reason I love him more than I did before. I guess it's nice to know that he's been thinking about this for a week. That means he cares! Aw! Oh my gosh! My feelings for him are only getting deeper and deeper. How do I fix this? I then had an idea. I don't see this person often because they live in another town miles away, but when I do they always tend to have the best advice. I searched through my phone and found her contact after I scrolled for a while.
