Chapter 10- The Perfect Couple
The next day, AJ went in search of Punk and found him sitting on a brick wall talking to John and another groundskeeper named Rey. After their talk yesterday, AJ was excited to see and talk to him again.
Sneaking up behind him, she covered his eyes with her hands, "Guess who?"
Punk jumped a little before saying, "Umm…I don't know. Kofi?"
AJ laughed, "No silly, it's me."
Punk turned around and smiled at AJ. "Hey April, how are you this fine day?"
"I'm great and you?" she said while giving him a big hug.
"I'm doing great too and that's good," he said trying to get the hug to last much longer.
John and Rey watched the young couples embrace.
After an extremely long hug, AJ and Punk finally broke apart, but Punk kept his arm around AJ's waist. "I just wanted to thank you for the help yesterday," AJ said.
"Anything for you princess," Punk gave her a big smile and kissed the top of her head. "I'm just glad that you're feeling better.
AJ's heart skipped a beat when he kissed her head and called her princess. She hoped this spark between them would go into something much bigger, but only time would tell.
"What happened yesterday?" John asked wondering why the two were so close all of a sudden.
A sad look came over AJ and Punk decided to speak first, so that AJ wouldn't relive what had actually happened. "I just found AJ looking a little sad yesterday, so I kept her company and talked to her for a little bit." He looked down and smiled at her.
Looking up at him, AJ smiled and said, "Ya and we found out that we actually have a lot in common."
Rey chimed in and said, "Oh ya like what?"
"Well…" AJ started out. "We like the same movies, video games, comic books, and a bunch of other things."
"Wow," Rey said. "You do have a lot of things in common. If I didn't know any better, I would say that you two would make the perfect couple."
A blush rose on both AJ and Punk's faces. "Well we do have some differences," AJ retorted.
"Like what?" John said with a little bit of attitude.
"I like coke," AJ stated.
"And I like Pepsi," Punk replied. "I prefer DC comics."
"And I like Marvel."
"She's afraid of spiders…"
"Hey," AJ interrupted. "I'm not afraid of spider."
Punk laughed, "Yes you are. Did you forget what happened when we were leaving the stables yesterday?"
"What happened?" Rey asked.
"We were walking out of the stables yesterday when April saw a spider and she was like 'Kill it, Kill it," Punk said in a high pitched tone while throwing his hands up mocking AJ.
"I was not and by the way Phillip how's your fear of horses coming along?" AJ answered back.
"Horses?" Rey said. "You're afraid of horses?"
"No. No I'm not. There just creepy," Punk said trying to defend himself. "I'm really not."
AJ just laughed and said, "Oh I'm sure you are Punky." She gave him another hug.
"Punky?" John and Rey both said.
"What's up with that?" John asked.
Punk and AJ broke apart. "Oh nothing, it's just a nickname I came up for him yesterday"
"Ya and it's not you for guys to repeat," Punk told them. Truthfully, he was happy that she came up with a nickname for him. It made him feel like she really cared for him and liked him
AJ, Punk and Rey seemed like they were all having a good time talking, but John wasn't as amused.
Folding his arms John said, "So let me guess this straight, instead of doing your job and working, you were off fooling around with AJ. I could write you up for this you know."
"What's you problem John?" AJ said annoyed.
"Ya man just chill." Rey told him.
"Besides Boss Man, I was working while I was talking to AJ. She talked while I worked."
"Whatever, I'm out of here. Just make sure that guys do your jobs," John said while storming off.
"What was that all about?" Punk asked.
"I don't know man. That was really weird," Rey said. "Anyways, I better get back to work. I'll talk to you guys later."
"Ok bye," AJ gave Rey a hug.
"See ya man," Punk gave a handshake, before watching Rey leave.
"Let's go for a walk," AJ said.
"Sure why not. I'm still on break," Punk said with a smile.
The couple both walked off without realizing that they were holding hands. It just felt natural.
AJ and Punk are getting a lot closer and what the hell is up with John?
Please review and let me know what you think and I'll try to post the next chapter called Family Talk and it has a surprise ending. Thanks!
