Whatsername was sitting on the counter and Johnny was on the phone.
"Yes I'll hold" he said
"So explain this to me again" Whatsername said grabbing on to Johnny's belt loops and pulling him towards her.
"Heather's been living with us for three months. I thought it was time I get my own place. Let these two lovebirds" Johnny put the phone to his ear "Hello? Yes I'm still here. Yes I'll still hold" Johnny covered the phone "Give these two lovebirds a place of their own"
"Isn't it going to be expensive living on your own? Lonely too" she said pulling him down so she could kiss him. Johnny kissed her
"I get the hint you can move in with me. I love you" Johnny put the phone to his ear "No not you my girlfriend. Yes, yes. She would be living with me. No I want the cheapest place"
"My how you must love me" she said
"You do? Great. I'll be over tomorrow" Johnny hung up the phone
"We have a place to live?"
"We do!"
"I can't believe my boyfriend cheated on my? I'm hot shit" Whatsername said
"You are. That's why I'm dating you know" Johnny said kissing her. Johnny and Whatsername saw the place and bought it. later that night Heather and Will sat on the couch
"Tell me a secret" Will said
"I don't think you want to hear any of those" she said resting her head on is shoulder. Will kissed the top of her head
"I bet you're wrong. Tell me more please" She turned to face him
"I was the screw up. I never did the things I was supposed to, my mom and dad said they were disappointed in me." Will kissed her
"See we have something in common already" he said
"My mom never really got me, never cared about the things I cared about. She would yell at me and make me feel stupid sometimes. It bothered me, she bothered me I needed to get out of my house. I struggle with depression and I've had suicidal thoughts. a part of me just wants to escape it all you know. Just end it then I wouldn't have to deal with the world" she explained
"We have a lot I common" Will said
"Your turn" Heather said resting her head on his lap and curling up on the couch
"I was also the screw up and disappointment. It was my dad that was the one always yelling at me. When are you going to grow up, when are you going to get a job, you better graduate school. So I dropped out and moved out. I lived with Johnny and I did get a job. But I too hit a point where I just wanted it all to be over. To just wake up when it's all done, I almost killed myself" he said Heather reached up to hold his hand. Will bent down and kissed her hand and she wrapped his arm around her
"What stopped you?" she asked
"this goofy friend of mine named Johnny. I used to cut myself when I was a kid. I would just wear watches and arm bands to cover it. One day when I was a bit older I got back into cutting and I thought maybe if I stabbed myself then I would be fine. Johnny walked in the door as soon as that thought popped in my head. So I but the blade down and walked out forgetting that my wrist was cut. He got all freaked out and then I'm not to sure what happened because I passed out. But Johnny got me help, got me back on my feet. I owe him my life" Will said Heather squeezed his hand
"I wish I had a friend like that. Don't get me wrong I have friends I used to get teased a lot. Actually I was picked on and bullied from the age of five to fifteen. No where was safe, not school, not home. I used to lock myself in my room and listen to my CD player. Music really kept me sane and I got some friends in high school, but none that would do that for me. Well no Rebecca would, we became best friends in grade 10. She would" Will pulled Heather onto his lap and kissed her
"You know I'm here for you too. If you ever need anyone to talk to I'll listen" Heather kissed him and rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes
"I love you Will" she said
"I love you too"
Two weeks had past and Johnny hung up the phone
"Fuck, fuck, fuck" Johnny said
"Are you angry or offering?" Whatsername asked
"They wont give us our place. Sorry you can't move in yet. YET? I need a roof over my head" Johnny said
"Johnny, you just moved out of the apartment with Will and Heather. I think they'll let you back in" she said with a laugh. He kissed
"I still want my place, sorry our place. Stupid people"
"Did they say why?"
"No" Johnny was so upset he just sat cross legged on the floor. Whatsername laughed and pulled him up
"Come on you goof lets go see why?"
