Okay! Let's get going! This is the chapter some of you have been waiting for. On your mark, get set, go!
" C'mon honey, the room is right here" Johnny's mom Allyson shouted at her husband down the hallway of the hotel. She was short, with short reddish brown hair and green eyes. "Hurry up Anthonie, you have the room key and i'm ready to sit down."
Anthonie (Johnny's dad) drug himself to the suite and sat his bags down on the floor before he opened the door. "If you're tired now just imagine how tired you'd be if the boys hadn't decided to stay home and go to that concert." Johnny's parents walked into the hotel room and leaned their bags against the wall. Allyson flung herself onto the bed as Anthonie walked into the bathroom.
When he walked out, he found his wife reclining on the bed and flipping channels on the TV. Kicking off his own shoes he sat down next to her, " Have you heard anything from Johnny? " Allyson glanced at him from the corner of her eye before returning her focus to the television.
" yeah, he said that he and his lady-friend were going out to see some of the town tonite," She briefly lost focus but soon remembered what she had been saying. "OHH! and he said that he hasn't told Mavis about meeting us, he's gunna surprise her! I can't wait until we get to meet her." Allyson shifted position so that she could lean on Anthonie, who was much taller than her and shared Johnny's red hair and brown eyes.
Anthonie shifted as well to help her get comfortable. " He probably didn't tell her because if she heard about you, she'd flee in terror." He laughed as he put his long arm around her. " I don't blame him, you can be a bit scary sometimes." Allyson elbowed him softly in the side in response. They Settled in as they watched TV, they laid together until they fell asleep.

Mavis stood in the her hotel room, leaning against the wall as she finished talking to her father on the phone. "yes...ok dad... Sure ... I will... Yep... We'll be careful... Love you to dad... Bye" Mavis exhaled strongly as she tossed the phone to Johnny, who was sitting on the bed watching. "Well he wants us to be careful and all, and he's glad we're having fun. He just worries to much."
Johnny gave Mavis a small smile, "He's just worried and not sure what to do with himself. I know that if you weren't with me id probably be going crazy missing you, so I can see why he's worried." Johnny had already changed into a pair of lounge pants and a loose shirt, and was propped up against the headboard of the bed. " Don't worry about it to much, it's time for bed."
Mavis grabbed something out of the top of her backpack and headed around the corner to change. When she came back into sight a few minutes later, she was wearing baggy grey sweatpants and an oversized t-shirt. She walked over and sat next to Johnny, who was already laying in bed, half asleep. When Mavis lifted the covers and climbed in next to him, he tiredly wrapped one arm over her waist and fell back to sleep. The bed was comfortable as Mavis tried to fall asleep, she laid in the bed and felt a warmth radiating from Johnny. She cuddled in closer to Johnny and allowed the warmth of his body to lull her to sleep.
Mavis awoke to the sound of a flushing toilet, she opened her eyes and saw Johnny walking out of the restroom. "well look who's awake." Johnny walked over to her and brushed a lock of jet black hair from her face. " I was going to wake you up a while ago, but you looked like you were enjoying a dream and I decided to let you sleep a little longer." He crouched beside the bed and prodded Mavis' forehead with his finger. "you are awake aren't you? I know you're usually asleep about now."
Mavis sat up and blinked hard. "yes Johnny, i'm awake. how long have you been up? "
Johnny picked up the alarm clock and looked at it, " well it's eleven o'clock now, Soo.. About an hour and a half" He sat the alarm clock down. " We forgot to close the curtains last night, so I got up to close them. Then I couldn't get back to sleep... so I sat her and just watched you sleep for a while," Johnny smiled at Mavis. "and I may our may not have attempted to have a staring contest with myself in the mirror." Johnny sat there with a goofy expression plastered to his face.
When Mavis finally responded she had an excited look on her face. " so when were we going to see this big surprise of yours? " She walked over to her backpack and began to rummage through it. " and how long do I have to get ready? "
Johnny thought for a minute, "A little over half an hour probably, we don't wanna be late." Mavis nodded and grabbed a set of clothes before waking into the bathroom to change. When she stepped out she was wearing a large hat and a pair of sunglasses alongside her usual attire.
She pulled a bottle of sunscreen from her bag and began rubbing it onto her face, arms and hands, since those were the only parts of her body not covered by clothing.
When they were both fully ready to leave, they headed out into the hallway. Mavis followed Johnny down to the lobby. Upon reaching the lobby Johnny turned to Mavis and told her that they were going to walk to their surprise. Mavis said she was fine with walking and they headed out the front door, stopping just before stepping out from the shade." Are you ready for your first time in the sun?"
Mavis swallowed hard and looked down at the floor, remembering how she had been burnt in the sun as a child, she looked at Johnny through her hair. Johnny saw that she was afraid, he leaned down and looked up at her face. "you're going to be fine. you put on your sunscreen, and you brought your umbrella thing as well as that hat." Johnny thumped the brim of her hat and smiled at her. "besides, if you start to burn I will personally carry you back into the hotel."
Mavis let out a small giggle and looked up at the door. "you're right. i'm ready, let's go." Together they stepped out the door and out onto the sidewalk, still covered by the awning. Mavis took a deep breath and stepped out into broad daylight. She stood there for a moment before she slowly turned around and looked at Johnny. "It worked! " Mavis lunged at Johnny and threw her arms around him, nearly knocking him into the street.
When they regained their balance they headed down the street, walking the opposite direction than they had the night before. As Mavis followed Johnny, she saw even more people than had been out the night before, People of all different ages. She had only seen people of Johnny's age before, and seeing the people of other ages amazed her.
It took a lot of effort for Johnny to get Mavis to keep walking. She would always stop to look at whatever performer or shop they passed. When Johnny finally got her where they were heading, they were standing in front of a boat along the banks of the Thames river.
Mavis read the sign that hung next to the boat ramp. " Cruise the Thames, see London by water." Mavis' eyes grew large as she grabbed Johnny by the arm and turned him to look at her.
" Is this the surprise! We get to ride a boat!? " Johnny pulled two tickets from his pocket and showed them off with a huge grin. Mavis grabbed Johnny by the arm and nearly drug him to the man who was checking tickets. Mavis paused and let Johnny hand the man their tickets before rushing onto the boat, Johnny struggling to keep up.
They got into the boat and found a place to stand in the shade. Mavis closed her parasol and held it at her side, just then she heard a woman's voice shouting. "Johnny? Jooohnny." Mavis looked at Johnny, who was scanning the crowd looking for the source of the voice. Moments later Johnny spotted who he was looking for and waved at the 40-something year old woman, she rushed through the crowd and over to Johnny. When she reached him she pulled him into a Hug and gave him a quick peck on the cheek.
Mavis gave Johnny an expectant look as she waited for him to tell her who the woman was, but he simply smiled at her in response. Mavis looked at the woman who was still standing beside Johnny. " Who is... Wait... it's that? YOUR MOM!? "
Johnny smiled at Mavis and drew breath to talk, but before he was able to, a tall man walked over and between talking to the woman standing there. " Allyson, let go of Johnny! He doesn't want his mommy kissing him in front of his new girlfriend." The man walled over and stood behind the woman placing his hand on her shoulder. Johnny pointed at the two people standing beside him.
" Mavis, I would like you to meet... My parents."
Haha. Cliffhanger maybe? Just decided that was a good place to stop. Did ya like it? Hopefully it wasn't to terribly written and you could understand it. Oh and Johnny's parents names are spelled how I wanted. If you want then spelled differently then sorry, to bad.
