I do not own the characters of Dirty Dancing. I made this story in a totally other context. Except for Johnny, his past and everything will stay the same, he's only having one extra thing and it's that he loves horse riding. The story isn't being held in the 60's, but it's in the 90's, 1994 to be exactly. The baseline of Dirty Dancing will be coming back in this story. That means that the dance and stuff mostly are going to be the same as in the movie.

Writer's view:

Johnny grabbed Baby a bit more tightly when she kicked Guido into a gallop. Baby chuckled as she was enjoying the gallop and the feeling of Johnny's body against hers. Baby led Guido to the lake and for this time the horse didn't jumped into the air with his legs. Which did surprise Baby though; even Johnny was surprised about it. Baby looked at Guido who has his ears forward while he was galloping thru the forest now. "He's happy." Baby said and Johnny only smiled. Baby pulled the reins back so that Guido was trotting; she pulled him back till he was walking. Johnny moved a bit as he laid his chin on Baby's left shoulder. He was enjoying the ride with her. Baby kissed his cheek as she was smiling too. "I love this." Johnny whispered and Baby chuckled a bit. "You're romantic you know." Baby said softly and Johnny smiled again at her while giving her a kiss on her cheek. They arrived at the lake, Baby smiled as she thought about their swim moments there. Then she had an idea. "Ever swam with a horse?" Baby asked and Johnny opened his eyes, he was enjoying the moment with his eyes closed. "Nope." He answered. "Then this will be your first time." Baby said as she led Guido to the water, she stopped. "Take your shoes off." Baby said as she was doing this already, Johnny did was he was told as Baby waited for him.

Guido stepped into the water and Johnny gasped a little bit because the water felt very cold in first place. "That's cold." He said and they chuckled a bit. Baby let Guido swam for a bit while they were having fun. Johnny grabbed Baby again and kissed her neck; she laid her head on his right shoulder as she closed her eyes. "It's great doing this together with you." She whispered and Johnny was stroking her hair. "Yeah, everything is great with you." He whispered, Baby opened her eyes and looked at his face. He smiled lovingly at her and they kissed for a bit. Johnny grabbed her a bit tightly as he didn't want to lose Baby. They sat like that for a moment, while Guido was swimming to another side of the lake. "I love you Baby." Johnny whispered in her ear and Baby opened her eyes to look into his eyes. 'He does mean it.' Baby thought and she started to smile happily. Johnny smiled with her as he saw her smile was becoming bigger. "I love you too Johnny." She whispered and Johnny grabbed her tightly again. 'First time someone said it to me while it comes from deep down her heart.' He thought as he kissed Baby passionately while he closed his eyes.

Lewis rolled back to his cabin as he thought about Penny; she said she needed to work on for a bit so he said he would let her be. He was smiling, because Penny said to him that she likes him. 'I hope she wants to be my girlfriend.' He thought as he entered the cabin. "You smell like horses." His mother said as she looked at him. "Yeah, I went to the stables. Penny's working there." He explained and she smiled happily. "I want to take a bath mum." He said as he rolled to the bathroom. She followed him as he was pulling his shirt off. She helped him taking his pants off so she could put him in the bath. She filled the bath while he sat in it. He wasn't ashamed to be naked around his parents; well he doesn't have a choice anyway as he needs his mother's help with everything. "You're fine like this?" She asked as she took a towel and laid it on the little closet next to the bath. "Yeah, thanks mum." He said. "You like to be with horses he? It started when you saw Baby riding the first time." Mum said as she sat down for a bit while she looked at him. "Yeah." Lewis said and looked down, he dreamed a bit. "Penny wants to teach me how to ride." He said as he smiled while he looked at his mum. "How?" She asked stupidly. "Well she said there's a way to let people, who are paralyzed, riding on horses. She said she's going to figure it out and then she will let me ride." Lewis explained. "That's nice of her. You like her he?" She asked as she smiled happily at him.

"Yeah, I think I like her for more than just a friend." Lewis said as he blushed a bit. "That's great son. I hope you will be happy someday. You deserve it." His mum said and he looked down again. He thought about Penny while his mother looked at him with a smile. "I will let you for a moment. Just yell if you need me." She said as she stood up. She walked to the door as Lewis looked up again. "Mom?" He asked and she turned around. "You wouldn't mind if I would try to ride do you?" He asked curiously. "Of course not son." She said and smiled happily at him, he smiled happily back as she went to the living room again. She was reading her book as she was enjoying the holiday. Lewis laid back and closed his eyes as he was enjoying the bath; he really wants to know how it would be like to walk again. He never had a girlfriend in his life, so he really doesn't know how it would be to love someone and how it would be like to share the love with that person. The doctor told him that he was paralyzed from his hips down and he probably never can share love or have children, when he thought about that he sighed deeply. 'I never can please her anyway.' He thought as he opened his eyes again. He heard a knock on the door.

"Enter." He said and thought it would be his mother. When he saw it was Penny he sat straight. "Don't you need to work?" He asked as Penny walked inside and smiled at him. "I'm off for the rest of the day. So I hope of course." She said as she walked to him. "What brings you here?" Lewis asked curiously as Penny sat down on the toilet while she looked at him. 'He looks very manly though.' She thought as she looked at his chest. "Well I was bored for a bit and as Baby and Johnny are still enjoying each other I wanted to enjoy someone too." Penny said teasingly. Lewis blushed a bit. "In what way you mean?" He asked as he lay back again. "In every way you want." Penny said. "Lewis?" She asked after a moment as Lewis was looking down. "Yeah?" He asked as he looked up again. "You never will be able to do it?" Penny asked curiously at him. He blushed a bit as he looked down again, a tear felt of his cheek as he sat straight again. Penny stood up and walked to him. "Sorry, I mustn't have asked you about it." She whispered as she grabbed him. "No, no. It doesn't matter Penny." Lewis said as he tried to smile. "You know I had an accident when I was 7. I told you yesterday about it." Lewis said and she nodded. Penny loosened him and looked in his eyes waiting for him to go on. "Well. I never will be able to do it nor have children, that's what the doctor told me anyway." Lewis said as he took the shampoo. Penny stroked his hair for a bit while she smiled. "I never had a girlfriend in my life and I'm 27 years old you know." Lewis explained. "Isn't that weird?" He asked after he sighed deeply. "What's weird Lewis?" Penny asked. "Well, you know all these things about love and sex and I don't." He said as he rubbed his hair. "I don't think its weird Lewis, besides you already know what love is you know." Penny said and smiled at him.

Lewis looked puzzled at her as he sat there with his hands in his hair. Penny chuckled about his face, she sat on her knees and grabbed his hands, and he looked at her with a smile as she crossed her fingers with his. She bowed forward and gave him a little kiss; Lewis closed his eyes and started to blush. "What's love Penny?" He whispered as he let his hands sag a bit while he was still holding Penny's hands. "Love is about someone who comes up for you, does everything for you, you can talk about everything and so much more. Your family loves you Lewis, that's love as well." Penny explained. "You must have seen a lot of things." He said as he smiled now. "Yeah, a lot of bad things you know. I've been hurt many times before in my life. So I know as well that love can hurt too." Penny whispered. "I don't want to get hurt, even if I don't know how it really feels. I just want to love someone." He whispered as he still was looking in Penny's eyes. "I like you a lot Lewis. From the first moment I saw you yesterday." She whispered as she came close to his face again. Lewis smiled a bit and he started to kiss Penny. After a moment they stopped and Penny smiled at him. "That felt weird." Lewis said as he was blushing heavily now. "That just felt great Lewis." Penny said and smiled. "Never felt that before." She whispered in his ear which made him blush even more.

"You want to be my girlfriend Penny?" He asked after a while, they were looking into each other's eyes. "Yes Lewis. I want to be your girlfriend." She whispered after she thought for a moment. Lewis' smile became bigger and he wanted to grab her. "Easy!" Penny said as she laughed. "Sorry!" Lewis said as he laughed as well. The door opened and they looked at Marge. "What's going on in here?" She asked. "Nothing mom." Lewis said as he still was smiling happily. "Okay, you're ready soon? It's lunch time." She said as she smiled at Penny, who actually was half wet. "Okay mom I will." Lewis said. Marge turned around. "Mom?" Lewis asked. "Yes son?" She asked as she turned her head while she was holding the door handle. "May Penny join us for lunch?" He asked. Marge looked at Penny and back at her son, and then she smiled happily. "Of course son. I think your girl wants to be with you." Marge said and Penny started to blush. She closed the door again and Lewis looked at Penny. "You want to help me?" He asked as he looked at Penny. "Of course." She said happily as she took the towel, when the water was gone and Lewis was drying his hair. Penny had taken another towel and laid it on his wheelchair. "You're strong?" He asked. "I hope so." She said. He laid his arms around her neck and smiled happily; she lifted him up and sat him on his wheelchair. "You're strong." He whispered as he gave her a kiss. Penny giggled.

Penny helped him with drying his legs and feet as Lewis was looking at her with a smile. "You're great Penny, never met someone like you before." He said and she looked up with a smile. "Same here." Penny said as she stood straight. "What did I do?" He asked stupidly as he turned his wheelchair to the door. "Nothing, you just stay yourself and that's what I like the most about you." Penny said as he opened the door. Lewis only smiled as he rolled to his bedroom. Penny walked after him and looked at his parents, she was a bit shy though but they only smiled at her. Penny laid him on his bed and she started to put his pants on, after he chooses which one he wanted. "I sometimes really feel like a big baby." He said and Penny giggled, Lewis grinned as she pulled him straight after she zipped his pants. She helped him in his wheelchair again and gave him the shirt. He was putting it on while she was putting his shoes on. "Let's go." He said as he grabbed her hand, Penny only smiled as they went to his parents. "You're ready?" Marge asked and they nodded.

Please do tell me what you think of this. I've got more though, but want to know your opinion.
