Chapter 21
"AAAHHHH!" I screamed as I literally ran into Johnny, sending us both to the floor, ear buds and all. Then, the thing that only happens in movies happened, Lindsay came put-puttin' along to her song and tripped over us both, sending her flying to the floor as well.
"What the hell?!" She exclaimed, ripped her ear buds off.
"Get offa me!" I laughed pushing Lindsay off me.
"Why should I?" Lindsay asked, "It your fault I fell!" she laughed.
"No you're the idiot who doesn't look where she walks…and you're contributing to the crushing of Johnny."
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry Johnny!" she said getting off of me so I could get off of Johnny, which kinda sounds bad if thought through.
"Are you okay?" I asked helping Johnny up.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Johnny said to us. "So what's in your ears?" he asked quietly.
"Medication." Lindsay said shortly. I elbowed her.
"Look, there's not getting around this Linds, so we might as well."
"But-but we can't!" Lindsay shouted.
"Well then I'll tell him." I said.
"Tell me what?" Johnny asked.
"You'd better sit down." I said to him, then I began to recall our story. As I finished, Johnny's face looked like he was trying to do an advanced calculus problem in his head.
"I don't know- how can you guys be…?" he asked. "And those things, are e-pods or something?" he asked. Lindsay and I laughed.
"No, they're iPods." Lindsay said.
"What do they do?" he asked.
"Well, you can listen to music on them. With this one you can have up to one thousand songs on here." I told him.
"How can there be songs on there? They're so small. That's impossible." He looked at the tiny blue iPod in doubt and disbelief.
"Here." I said taking the ear bud out of my ear and putting it up to his.
"What are you doing?" He jumped a little, cause obviously, he's never had a girl get that close to him.
"Just listen." I told him. As Usher's, Love in this Club came on. Johnny eye's widened.
"So you weren't kidding?" Johnny asked.
"We told you. So do you believe us?" Lindsay asked.
"I don't know…" he said.
"You have to promise us to keep this a secret. You're the only one that knows, and we would like to keep it that way. Promise?" I asked him, doing my best doe-eyed face, even though I knew that he would agree anyway.
"Yeah, I will." He gave me a small smile. Then, the weirdest thing happened, I got this feeling in my stomach it felt like…butterflies. I broke eye contact with him and turned to Lindsay to hide my reddening cheeks.
"Thanks Johnny." Lindsay said to him, giving him a hug. Shit, now I had to give him a hug too. Once she let go of him, I awkwardly wrapped my arms around his neck, and turning red all over again as he put his shaky hands around my waist, returning the hug. I let go pretty quickly. The door slammed shut and snapped me out of my thoughts. Then Lindsay ripped the iPod out of my hands and, along with hers, shoved it into a random cupboard.
"Shit girls, your mammas must not have any manners herself! Didn't she tell you how to greet a greaser when he walks into the room?" Two-Bit said waltzing into the kitchen with Ponyboy, Sodapop, and Steve in tow.
"Oh, you mean kick him in the- wait never mind, you don't have any!" Lindsay snapped.
"Oh yeah, well Two-Bit, if cross country were easy, it'd be called your mom." I looked at Lindsay, we both new it was coming.
"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" We shouted at the same time. As everyone but Two-Bit started laughing.
"That was a good one." Soda came up to me and kissed me, but I realized in mid-kiss that I felt…nothing.
