Chapter 10

Name

Previously on Let Love In…

Elizabeth's small smile grew wide and Johnny unfolded her blindfold. Her eyes took in the beach, and the horizon with the sun setting. It was a glorious setting, and it was just begging her to paint it. She took in the pink and orange hues of the setting sun, and felt the cool beach air on her bare arms.

She feels his arms wrap around her and she immediately jumps into Johnny's arms, "Thank you. I love it!" Johnny grinned and placed a kiss on her lips. She opened her mouth, begging for more of him. Finally they broke it off for lack of oxygen. "If you're happy, I'm happy," he whispered as they foreheads touched.

Elizabeth grinned and pulled away, "I'll race you to the water!" She took off without a warning, leaving a bewildered Johnny standing in sand. It took him a moment to register what just happened, and gladly chased her to the water's edge.

He caught up to her just as she reached the water. Running up behind her, she tries to get away, but he wraps her in a strong embrace. Picking her up, he puts her over his shoulder and makes his way into the water.

Johnny can hear her squealing and laughing, and finally he fell down and they tumbled into the water. Once they reached the surface, Elizabeth splashed him, prompting him to splash her back. They got even wetter, and finally their water fight brought them close.

Elizabeth wrapped her legs around his, floating with him on the waves. She locked her wrists around his neck, and she felt his hands on her waist.

"I can't believe you did all of this for me," Elizabeth murmured. Johnny smiled, a running a hand through her wet hair. "I'm glad you liked it," Johnny admitted. "Like it? I love it…being here with you. It's like the perfect escape from reality. It's just what I needed," Elizabeth said before she crashed her lips into his.

Johnny carried her up to the beach house, where he set her back down on the ground. Sliding open the door, he leads her into the kitchen. Taking her hand in his, Johnny shows her the house. "Where's the bedroom," she asked him, placing a tender hand on his chest. Johnny smirked, realizing what she meant, "Let's get you out of those wet clothes," he suggested.

Yeah, slide between the sheets of all them beds you never knew

Why don't you slide into my room

Elizabeth nodded her head, and laughed as he picked her up and led her into the master bedroom. They spent the whole night exploring the beach house's furniture.

It was their escape from reality, their paradise.

~May 5th, 2012~

Johnny sat up in bed, never feeling this refreshed. Turning to his left, he sees the bed empty. Slightly confused, Johnny gets up and puts on a pair of black sweatpants.

And even though the moment passed me by
I still can't turn away

Figuring that Elizabeth was down at the water or making breakfast, Johnny goes to open the door, only for Elizabeth to barrel through.

Cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
Got tossed along the way

He catches her in his arms, and smiles down at her. "You're up early," he noted as he saw the only article of clothing she was wearing: one of his white button-up shirts. Her hair was still tousled from their extracurricular activities the previous night. Grinning, he slowly unbuttons each button, but Elizabeth gently slaps his hand away.

"I was exploring the house because I couldn't ignore your snores any longer-"

"I do not snore," he argued as crossed his arms over his chest. Elizabeth grinned, and patted his cheek. "Babe, you do snore, but anyways, I was exploring the house and found this," Elizabeth told him, reaching behind her back and revealing his old guitar. Johnny had forgotten he left it here the last time her visited his beach house.

And letters that you never meant to send
Got lost or thrown away

He could see the twinkle in her eyes, and Johnny already knew what she was going to ask before she opened her mouth. "No, I'm not going to play," Johnny told her, putting his hands up in surrender and moved away from her.

And now we're grown up orphans
And never knew their names

"Please, Johnny? I really want to hear you sing, and I promise I won't laugh," Elizabeth pleaded, following him around the airy bedroom. Johnny shook his head, moving for the sliding glass door that led out to the balcony.

"Elizabeth-"

Finally catching up to him, she grabs his wrist and turns him to her. Smiling up at her, she placed her hands on his chest, lightly tapping his muscular pecs.

We don't belong to no one
That's a shame

"Please, I'll make it worth your while," Elizabeth seductively whispered. Johnny looked into her eyes, seeing what her words promise, but he didn't budge. Elizabeth grinned, and leaned up on her tiptoes. Pressing her lips to his neck, over and over again. She could feel his body start to relax and she finally felt his hands on her back.

But you could hide beside me
Maybe for a while

"You know I'm the best you ever had," she murmured, and she felt him groan into her. "Elizabeth, I know you're the best I've ever had," Johnny whispered and she chuckled.

And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name

Hearing him sigh, and knowing that he could never say no to her, Elizabeth pulls back to look at him. "Fine, but you promise you won't laugh," he asked her. Elizabeth held out her pinky, "Pinky promise."

Johnny grinned at her, "What are we, eight?" Elizabeth rolled her eyes. "No, but this is what I do with Cam and Aiden." Johnny shook his head at her antics and squeezed his pinky finger with hers.

Taking the guitar off the bed, Johnny sits down against the headrest. Elizabeth sits on the foot of the bed, eagerly waiting to hear him.

"I'm a little rusty, but here goes nothing," Johnny told her. Elizabeth nodded her head, and sat Indian-style on the bed.

"White lips, pale face. Breathing in snowflakes. Burnt lungs, sour taste. Light's gone, day's end. Struggling to pay rent. Long nights, strange men."

Elizabeth was entranced by his melodic voice. He started to smile as he sang, and she knew that he was feeling the exact same way she used to feel when she painted.

"And they say, she's in the class A Team. Stuck in her daydream, been this way since 18. But lately her face seems slowly sinking, wasting. Crumbling like pastries."

He stared at her, smiling when she smiled back at him. Johnny felt the connection running between them, the deep connection that can only be felt when two artists bond.

"And we don't want to go outside tonight. And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland or sell love to another man. It's too cold outside, for angels to fly. Angels to fly. To fly, fly. For angels to fly, to fly, to fly. Or angels to die."

Johnny looked up from his guitar, to see a tear on her cheek. Placing the guitar aside, Johnny crawls over to her and wipes away her tear.

"Why are you crying," he whispered, caressing her cheek. Elizabeth smiles, and places her hand on his. "That was beautiful," she sighed. Johnny smiled and leaned in for a kiss.

Elizabeth placed her hands on his wrists, holding him to her. They soon lost themselves in each other's bodies, and the rest of the morning was well spent.

And scars are souvenirs you never lose
The past is never far

Johnny and Elizabeth walk through the little town square, hand in hand. Elizabeth looked at Johnny beside her, the hint of a smile etched on his face.

She looked down at their intertwined hands, feeling the rush of content run through her. He was right; it felt so good to hold his hand in public. They didn't have to sneak around here; they didn't have to hide their true feelings.

His short jet-black hair was sticking up from when they frolicked in the water, or more like Elizabeth splashed him and he dunked her underwater. His white cotton button-up shirt, the same one she had been wearing earlier that morning, was still damp, but luckily his khaki pants were dry and he didn't have to worry about his flip-flop clad feet.

Did you lose yourself somewhere out there?
Did you get to be a star?

He looked so happy and free. The qualities she had yearned for ever since she was a little girl. Johnny noticed her checking him out, and he bumped hips with her. He looked down at the woman holding his hand. She was wearing a beautiful blue sundress that accentuated her vibrant sapphire eyes as well as her demure figure. Her auburn hair was still wet from when they had rolled around in the surf.

Johnny releases her hand from his and wraps his arm around her waist, pulling her close. She smiled and wrapped her arm around his waist. Together, they walked through the small market.

And don't it make you sad to know that life
Is more than who we are

Elizabeth would occasionally stop them, forcing Johnny to look at the various trinkets the sellers offered.

She stopped him at a fruit stand, where she bought strawberries. The elderly lady smiled at them.

"You two make a beautiful couple. You're going to have gorgeous babies," she commented, and Elizabeth thanked her. Johnny kissed her forehead, and he knew how much that comment meant to the both of them.

We grew up way too fast
And now there's nothing to believe

The elderly lady placed the strawberries in a bag and handed them to Elizabeth. His eyes questioned her, but she mouthed 'later'. He caught on, and paid for the strawberries himself.

Walking back through the town square, a band had started up, and a few couples had gathered in the middle to dance. Johnny took the strawberries from her hand and placed them on the ground.

And reruns all become our history
A tired song keeps playing on a tired radio

Taking her hand in his, he led her over to the makeshift dance floor. Pulling her close, they sway together with the music. She ran her hands up and down his muscular back as his held firm on her hips. They turned in slow circles, enjoying these stolen moments together. Leaning back, Johnny pulled a stray hair behind her ear. Grinning, she moved close and met his lips in a perfect kiss.

After a few songs, Johnny placed a hundred dollar bill in the band's tip box and took Elizabeth's hand in his. She smiled at his slightly exaggerated generosity.

And I won't tell no one your name
And I won't tell 'em your name

Getting back home, Elizabeth made dinner for the two of them. Johnny kept distracting her, but it was the good kind of distraction. Finally, they enjoyed dinner out on the small patio, listening to the waves. Afterwards, they walked down to the beach, and walked along the shore.

For hours, they talked about childhood memories, stories about their siblings, and their true passions: art and music.

I won't tell em' your name
I won't tell em' your name

Johnny checked his watch to see that it was almost midnight. They walked back to his beach house, where they both went to bedroom.

Changing into a green tank top and black booty shorts, Elizabeth climbs into bed. Johnny strips down to his boxers and joins her. Immediately, she snuggles into his side, and he holds her for a while.

"I can't believe we have to go back to our lives tomorrow," Elizabeth whispered. "I wish we could stay here forever," Johnny sighed as he ran a hand through her hair. "This weekend was the perfect getaway. It was just what I needed. Thank you," Elizabeth told him.

I think about you all the time
But I don't need the same

Johnny kissed the top of her head. "You know, we can come up here anytime you want to," Johnny stated. "I'd love that," Elizabeth admitted. "Maybe next time you can bring Cameron and Aiden," Johnny confidently asked.

Elizabeth smiled and ran her hand up and down his chest, "I think they would love it here." "Good," he murmured.

"Good night Johnny," Elizabeth whispered right before she succumbed to her exhaustion. Johnny smiled, "Night Liz." He leaned over and turned out the small lamp, plunging them into darkness beside the moonlight that filtered through the glass door.

It's lonely where you are
Come back down

Johnny stayed up for another hour, just watching her sleep. He could imagine each night for the rest of his life being like this.

And I won't tell 'em your name

He could imagine spending the rest of his life with the woman in his arms.
