Its been a week since i saw Johnny, and to tell you the truth im kind of missing him...
What are you even saying Harper, you've known the man all of what? 10 seconds. Get. A. Grip

Me and Zoe are going to a party tonight, our first one since we finished school. So you guessed it, we are getting abso-fucking-lutely mortal.
Ready, pre-drinks gone and in the taxi. We're on our way with a bottle of wine chatting utter shit to our unresponsive taxi driver. The journey went as fast as our wine did and already inside starting the party...
Oh wow, the only word i can think right now is mortal. Im mortal. Sat on the toilet grinning to myself like the cheshire cat for no reason whatsoever.
I stumble down the stairs and look at Zoe on the phone. My phone.

HJ : "what the fuck are you doing?"

Z : "Well you see, i thought, i would ring our friend Mr Depp.." followed by snickering

HJ : "give me that phone now, why in the fucks name are you ringing Johnny"

She hands me the phone and i unknowingly put it to my ear, not realising the amount of anger that's flowing out of it. All i hear is shouting but my fucked up head can't understand a word he's saying apart from 'im coming to get you stay there' and then an abrupt end. What felt like 2 seconds later, someone started having a fight with the fucking door, ooh i wonder who this is. Never mind my time was clearly up as i was now over the mans shoulder, and you guessed it. The man was HRH Mr Depp. To deal with less of the lecture, i decide to go to sleep.

Spinning. Black. Spinning. Johnny

Oh fucking hell, how am i here again this is not how i want to be spending every night that goes wrong. Actually wrong. I want to spend every night here. What am i thinking, stop, stop it Harper. You're just thinking irrationally because your still a tiny bit drunk. Nope i'm stone cold sober i guess i just have a little crush on Johnny. Jeez every time i meet a man i start to have a crush on him, it's a real problem. I should try and get help.
i tried thinking what happened last night, i remember Johnny carrying me firefighter style to his car, and on the way asked Zoe where my things were. On the journey to the car i just remember him talking about some man. Just repeating something about a man. From what i can imagine he carries me inside in the same way and puts me in the bed that i've mysteriously woken up in.
I walk down stairs apprehensively, knowing that i'm about to unleash a wave of Johnny's questions and anger. I walk into the kitchen and he just opens his arms and i bury my head into his chest. This has got to be the best fucking hangover cure ever.
But, the inevitable has to happen and the questions come, he asks about the man. The mysterious non-existent man.

HJ : "Johnny i honestly don't know what man you're talking about, i spent the whole night with Zoe"

JD : "Zoe told me a guy was harassing you, kept looking at you up and down, like you were some sort of, you know, toy or something"

HJ : "I mean not that i know of, i was too drunk to notice anything"

JD : "Right well as long as he didn't hurt or touch you, then we can forget about it"

As he said that we sat down on the sofa and he opened his arms like before and i just fell down onto his firm chest. However his last sentence got me thinking,

HJ : "Johnny why do care if a man touches me, i am an adult?"

JD : "Because i care, ive gotten to know you and i care like you wouldn't believe"

HJ: "you care?"

JD : "oh yeah, of course Harper"

Does he care because he sees me as a friend though? Oh does he fancy me? I swear to god, it had better be the fucking latter.

We go back up to bed, and we spoon, of course his broad frame shrouds me. I know what you were thinking.
He whispers in my ear "what am i going to do with you ay, we got in quite a pickle last night."
I look behind me, and for most people this wouldn't be the best angle - you know double chin and all - but Johnny looked even better, the view of his lips and jaw and the peaks of his hair just falling into his eyebrows.

Well what can i say, this is my idea of heaven. This is fucking wonderful.
