Being a Johnson

Chapter 15: the next day

I woke up the next morning with my head on Ricky's chest it is 8 am and I can't go back to sleep. so I get up take a shower and straighten my hair. I apply a smokey eye makeup with lipgloss. I pull on a pair of dark wash Hollister skinny jeans with a purple lacy bandeu is and a 'bish whet' black muscle tank crop top. and classic vans. I go down stairs and see Ricky on the couch. "how are you not hungover?" "I have partied enough to not get a hangover or I am just able to deal with it..... also I am borrowing your car" he nods and goes back to watching afv I go upstairs and grab my phone which has music notes In the background with a black acoustic guitar in the main part. I slip it into my black pocket along with a twenty. I black my guitar case and walk downstairs to the car. I go and grab a iced Carmel macchiato from Starbucks. I head to the park. when I get there I set my phone up for a video I pull out my guitar and start to strum I play my song (dark horse by Katy perry) . when I finish I hit upload and it starts to upload. on the drive back to the o2l house my phone started ringing. I pull over and answer. "hello" "good afternoon is this Katherine Johnson?" "I prefer Katie" "alright well I have seen your videos on YouTube and I would like to have you join a client of mine on tour" "who is the client" "shawn Mendes" "the shawn mendes?" "Yes ma'am you would leave for about six months so you would miss school" "I already graduated" "it says here that you are a senior due to two grade skips" "I did 2 in 1" "ok we have already contacted your mother she said it was fine but to ask you" "that is great but on one condition" "what would that be?" " Mathew Espinosa needs to come or else no deal and don't tell shawn I am touring with him" "doable" "then you have a deal me and Matt are a package" "is that your boyfriend" "more like unrelated big brother" "oh okay you and Matt will be on one bus and shawn will be on another" "fine by me" "I look forward to meeting you" "same to you" she hung up. what just happened. I am going on freaking tour. I go home and run up to my room. my phone starts to blow up. nash is calling me. I answer. "What nash" "umm can we talk" "we are" " I meant in person" oh "well I am kind of busy" "oh ok I was just worried about you" "you sure your not just saying that to me and right after we are done your are going to call up that slut" "I am not she was a friend and she brought me a few drinks and I somehow confused your beauty with her...i am really sorry" "meet me at Taco Bell in 10 ALONE" "yes ok ...um I mean yeah sure" I just laughed and hung up. I grab Ricky's skateboard and ride to Taco Bell. nash is already there but so is our food and Starbucks. He had a venti Carmel macchiato with extra caramel drizzle and whipped cream. How did he remember it was like three months ago when we broke up. he had our food and he had my favorite nacho cheese Doritos locos tacos no hot sauce and a dr.pepper slushy man he remembered everything I ate from our first date at taco bell. "How did you remember all of this" "I pay attention" "ok" we ate and made small talk he offered to give me a ride. he drove in silence "Katie why aren't you at the hotel?" "You and jack" "oh sorry I am not the only worried one" "oh yeah just you and Matt" "and jack and shawn and...jake" "why is he still here" "he leaves tonight" "then you will see me tomorrow morning after that party tonight." "Where" "a friends" I kiss his cheek and hop out of his car and head into the o2l house. Kian and Jc are playing Mario cart and jc just lost. I walk over and sit down on the arm of the couch near kian.he stands up and kisses me I wrap my arms around his neck. the kiss becomes more Needie and I pull away. I walk up stairs and Connor his eyes are all red. I walk past him and go into Ricky's room were he is watching jack Ryan shadow recruit. I sit with him. "hey"i whisper in his ear. "hey" he looks down and leans in. we kiss and I have a good feeling. "Ricky I need to tell you something that is life changing" "are you dying" "no" "ok good" "I am going on tour with shawn Mendes" "omfg" "and..." "what?" "I rink I wanna change" "what's wrong with you?" "I wanna be a better person than I am... I want to not be such a slut" "I can help" "I leave tomorrow night also I have a tattoo" "doable and what! let me see" i show him it is on my wrist under my bracelets it is an infinity sign with love written in cursive underneath. he looks at me. "there is hope" he smiles. "what are we going to do" "first no more drugs or getting wasted" "hard but maybe" "also some of your clothe need to go" "my babies...only with my approval" "no more meaningless sex" "ok" "that means o2l cuz that would ruin their love life" "how" "Sam Kian and jc have girlfriends" "ok let's get to work" "one more thing" "what" "no party tonight" "fine". we got rid of a lot of stuff and went shopping for like five hours. I was so tired I only got to pick five outfits. when got home the party was just starting so we hurried up to my and Ricky's room. when we get in there he picks my outfit out for tomorrow and lays it out. I also pack my new suitcase and backpack with all my new clothes because my old suitcase is not girly enough. I changed into a pair of purple bottoms and one of Ricky's thirst with a nude sports bra on. and then I watched if I stay.
