Here is chapter four. There probably won't be too many more chapters but who know I could change my mind and go further than this episode. This chapter contains two lines from Season 8 Episode 9: Lost in Love Part 2 but that is only because I believe that probably would have happened. Other than that the dialouge is all from my mind. So I hope you enjoy this chapter. (:

P.S. I do not own Degrassi. It's a sad, sad day in the neighborhood.

P.P.S. Please Read and Review (it makes me happy to see a [review alert] in my inbox :D)

Chapter Four: My First Kiss Went A Little Like This

Alli smiled as Johnny leaned towards her. When his lips touched hers, her heart raced. He pulled away and her eyes widened as she smiled.

"Was that your first kiss?" Johnny asked.

"The next one won't be," Alli said smiling. Johnny rolled his eyes as Alli laid her head on his shoulder.

"You know, Backwoods, you're cute, but us, together, is never going to work. You're a Grade 9, I'm a Grade 12. It would be nonstop torment for both of us."

"Can't we try? If we don't let any comments bother us people will eventually get bored and leave us alone."

"You don't understand. It's not that easy."

"But you like me. A lot. We should at least give it a try. You never know what could happen."

"No, Backwoods. I like you but a relationship between us would never work. Let's just be friends."

"Friends. Can it be friends with benefits?"

"Benefits? What kind of benefits?"

"Oh, you know kissing."

"Kissing? We could maybe do that. At least try it," Johnny said, leaning in to kiss Alli again. Alli smiled and wrapped her arms around Johnny's neck. His arms snaked around her waist pulling her close.

"This is perfect," Alli thought to herself, "Just as I wanted tonight to go."

"I can't believe I agreed to this. Friends with a make-out benefit. With a niner," Johnny thought to himself as he lifted Alli onto his lap, "Oh well. We'll be just friends after tonight. Or maybe not even that. And no one else ever need know what happened tonight."

When Johnny and Alli broke apart, Johnny found his extra batteries to fix the lantern. They went back to their poker game, but both of their minds kept wandering back to the kiss. Alli knew what she wanted, but also knew that Johnny wasn't ready to be more than friends. Johnny knew he liked Alli, a lot, and he knew that he wouldn't be able to remain distant from her. There was just something about her that made him want to tell her everything about him, and hold her in his arms forever.
