Ok. This takes place after "They Shoot Fonzies, Don't They?" where Fonzie and Joanie won the dance marathon. Don't give any negative reviews, this is my first Happy Days story! Enjoy!
After the grueling dance marathon which Joanie and Fonzie won beating the two snobby siblings, he limps into his garage apartment and finally gets to lay down on the couch planning to relax and take a nap. In fact a really really long nap after staying up for over 24 hours, pushing his motorcycle 12 miles all the way from Chicago and dancing for 14 hours at Arnold's with Joanie and winning the contest.
He lets out a huge sigh and said exhausted, "Finallllllyyyyyyyyy…"
Just then came a knock on the door.
He shouts wearily, "Who is it?"
There came a reply, "It's me. Joanie. Can I come in Fonz?"
"It's open," he said still not moving an inch.
Joanie came in the door with the "I feel bad" look on her face and then greets, "Hey. You ok?"
"Eh."
She feels so bad for him about the whole thing and him being so exhausted after her dad tells her why.
She takes a deep breath and starts, "Listen Fonz… Dad kinda told me what happened to you and I'm sorry I've been pushing and tricking you. I didn't know that you were so exhausted from pushing your motorcycle so many miles just to be there for me. I mean that's so sweet of you."
"Aaaayyy, anything for you Shortcake," he replied. "This means so much to ya."
"I never knew you were such a trooper," Joanie said sitting on the couch near him and strokes his forehead.
"Well what else am I gonna do? I wouldn't let anyone cut my hair and you not being a cheerleader."
She sighed shaking her head, "You should've told me before we even left."
Fonzie shrugged and reached over to the side table and takes the dance trophy in a shape of a foot and was going to give it to her. "Here. This is for you."
"No," Joanie said pushing it away, "It's alright. You keep it. You deserve it after pulling it off in the end. I won something even better. I got a guy to walk me home, and I get to be a pom pom thanks to you! I love you so much Fonzie!"
"I love you too Shortcake."
He smiled as Joanie took the foot trophy and put it back on the side table and giving a kiss on his forehead and rubbing his feet and he doesn't seem to mind.
"Aaaayyy," Fonzie moaned still feeling too tired. He closed his eyes and felt himself starting to fall asleep.
She finds a blanket on the side of the couch and takes it.
"I'm gonna let you rest now alright?" Joanie said putting a blanket over Fonzie's body.
He mumbles with his eyes still shut getting comfortable, "Yeah… Ok… Can you get my pill pill?"
"Your what?" Joanie asked confused.
"The pillow... Closet... Top shelf…"
She went and opened the closer and took his comfortable pillow down from the shelf and brought it back over and gently put it under Fonzie's head. Joanie kisses him on the forehead and strokes it as he finally fell fast asleep.
She whispers, "Sweet dreams Fonzie. I love you." She gave him one final kiss before leaving the apartment and turning off the lights and closing the door leaving him to have a nice long nap.
