Chapter One: I'm Intrigued By You
"Tonight is so going to rock," Alli thought to herself, while talking to Anya, and shedding her long skirt and jacket.
As Alli and Anya left the school building, Alli spotted Johnny leaning against the bus, a book in his hands. Alli smiled and walked up to him.
"Hi, I'm Alli." she said to him, "what're you reading?"
"A book," Johnny answered.
"That's a joke, right?" Alli asked.
"That would be correct," Jonny answered, without looking up from his book.
After setting up camp and a game of Survival, Alli asked Johnny to go for a walk. Johnny agreed and he and Alli headed into the woods together.
"Why do you seem so distant at times?" Alli asked Johnny smiling up at him.
"Why are you so interested in me?" Johnny replied with a smile.
"I asked you first," Alli said, giggling.
"Fine, being distant keeps most people from bothering me. Apparently, it doesn't work on everyone," Johnny said with a grin, "Now, you answer my question."
"Okay. I'm interested in you because I like you and want to get to know you better."
"Really? Well, you intrigue me, Bhandari. So, I'm going to think about getting to know you too."
"Really!" Alli giggled, "I mean, that's cool."
Johnny laughed, "You're cute, Bhandari, but I think we'd better head back to camp. People may begin to wonder."
"No, just a little further, then we'll turn around. Please?" Alli pleaded, batting her eyes.
"Fine, just a little further, then we turn around. I don't want people to come look for us."
"Okay," Alli said, smiling. She looped her arm around Johnny's. He rolled his eyes and smiled, but didn't pull away. Alli's heart leaped.
"Tonight's going exactly as planned," Alli thought to herself.
