Title: One more Night, One more Time

Chapter 1
It's been two years from now since Penny started dating Chris. They're already seniors and have started planning for College. Nothing really changed except for the fact that Eyeball moved out and no one heard of him anymore. The Cobras were in jail. Well, some of them. And Roger moved away a year ago to continue his College somewhere where no one knows. And maybe soon, Johnny will be the next one to leave. Leaving Penny alone with her mother. Johnny advised about her senior year. She and Chris still haven't discussed about College. She wasn't sure if things will still work out in College. And maybe even in their Senior year.
"Shit! Shit, I'm late." Penny said, quickly grabbing her bag and ran down the stairs. She grabbed a piece of toast and car keys. She left the house and drove the car, forgetting about the speed limit. She arrived in school less than ten minutes. She parked the car, got down and entered the hallway, straight to her locker. Her locker was transferred since last year. It was now where Johnny's locker was.
She got some books for class. She slammed the door and saw Chris leaning against a locker.
"Hey, Chris." She greeted, catching her breath and was on a rush.
"Woah, hey, what's with the rush?" he asked.
"Oh, God, Chris. You see, I got a lot on my mind lately. And I have to finish this crappy school stuff." She said, bringing out some folders and manila envelopes.
"Penny, relax. Breathe." He said, placing his hands on her shoulders. He kissed her gently, letting her feel his tongue.
"Damn, would you two do that somewhere else?" Teddy said, approaching them with Jadey.
"Yeah, quit the PDA." Jadey said.
"Well, look who's talkin'." Chris said, his arm around Penny. "I'm just trying to make her relax."
"Yeah, Penny. Maybe you really should relax." Jadey said.
"Yeah, you're right." Penny said, and nodded.
First period started but Penny had a different schedule from her friends. And a twisted one, too. Penny's last period before lunch was Gym. They had soccer. Like her brothers, Penny loved soccer.

Chris just got his tray of food and was looking around for a sign of Penny but she was nowhere to be seen.
"Hey, Chris. Where's Penny?" Roma asked.
"Damn, I don't know. She must be still in Gym class." He said.
"Until now?"
"I guess."
"Don't worry, man. She'll be coming." Gordie said, and tapped his shoulder.
*---*
Penny just finished playing soccer. She was going to enter the Girls' Lockers when a guy bumped into her.
"Hi, I'm Stan." The guy said, and raised his hand to shake hands with her. He was dressed in a soccer uniform.
"Er, Penny." She said, tensed. "I have to go. See you around."
And she left to take a five minute shower. She wore her pairs of jeans, blouse and sneakers and bag and left the lockers.
"I saw you play soccer a while ago." Stan said, while he was walking with her to the cafeteria. "And you're really good."
"Oh, thanks." She said, and smiled. Stan just turned red and asked,
"Do you wanna have lunch with me?"
"Sorry, I'm going with someone." She said, and quickly walked to get food. She looked around for Gordie's table and found it. Chris was looking at her seriously making her feel awkward.
"Okay, well, I'll just see you around then." He said, and went to a table where his football friends started teasing him and just kept laughing.
"Sorry, I'm late, guys." She said, and sat down in front of Chris.
"Who was that guy you were talking to?" he asked.
"Some guy from the Soccer team. I think Johnny knows him."
"What did he say to you?" Roma asked.
"Well, just something about playing soccer and stuff like that."
"How long could you guys talk?" he said, impatiently and looked at his watch.
"C'mon, Chris. I just bumped into him." She explained, and held his hand while he just looked away. She pulled back her hand and looked down and started eating.
"Chill, man." Gordie whispered to Chris. He just nodded and looked at Penny.
"Okay, sorry, Pen." He said to her, but she just nodded without looking up.

Johnny was driving on the road after class. He graduated and was now on his 2nd year of College. The sun was setting and was passing by High School when he saw a familiar guy walking.
"Hey. Stanley? Or should I call you Stan?" he said, as he stopped by him and pointed at this tall, tan-skinned, messy jet black haired half-Spanish boy.
"Yeah. What's up, Johnny?" he greeted, and shook hands with him.
"Great. How's football?" Johnny asked. When Johnny was still a senior, he saw Stan tryout for the team and he was really good.
"Awesome. Penny's your sister right?" he asked, turning red.
"Yeah, she plays a little soccer, too but not very often. And don't think about it, man. She's taken." Johnny said, cutting him off before he could say something.
"Well, I guess you read my mind." Stan joked. "I better get going, man. See you around."
"Yeah, see you." Johnny said, and left. Stan walked to his car where his football friends were waiting. He looked around and saw Penny walking to her car with Chris.
"So, she's dating that Chambers boy." He said to his friends.
"I didn't know some girl would date him." His friend said.
"Yeah, and Connors' sister too." Said another, referring to Johnny. Stan just ignored his friends' comments and looked at the car leave the school parking lot.

Penny was in Johnny's room and talking about family stuff after dinner.
"So, is it true that you heard that mom's dating someone?" Penny asked Johnny. They were both sitting on his bed with a pillow between them.
"Yeah, I'm sure. And you'd also notice how happy mom is." He said.
"Yeah. Well, I thought that she promised us that she won't remarry."
"I know. But she just can't keep it. I mean, sooner or later I'll be moving out. Then you're next. We can't just leave her all alone." Johnny explained.
"I guess you're right. And speaking of moving out, I thought you wanted the Industries." She asked.
"I do. That's why when I have it, I'll expand it. And besides, Heather and I will be getting married after College. We'll be moving out." He said, thinking about all his great plans for the Industries.
"Are you guys sure you can handle getting married right after College?" she asked, doubtfully.
"Well, give us a year or two." He assured her. "Trust me."
"Sure, I will. I kind of miss Roge." She said, sadly.
"I understand, Pen." He said, and gave her a hug.
"Okay, thanks." She chuckled. "I bet you know this guy named "Stan"."
"Yeah, I saw him on the street this afternoon. And don't worry, I got my eyes on him." He said.
"Yeah, great." She said, and stood by his door. "Good night, bro."
