Sleep Deprived
Disclaimer: I do not the Outsiders. The only things that I own are Leah and Jane.
A/N Thanks for all of the reviews!
Darry's POV.
I started making breakfast as soon as I woke up. Right away Leah walked into the kitchen and sat down. I'll help you in a minute, she said.
Ok that'd be great, I told her.
Right after that she got up and starting cooking some eggs. How'd you sleep? I asked her
. She looked at me and gave me a small laugh. Sleep? is there such a thing?
Oooo that bad huh?
Yeah I couldn't stop thinking about my mom's necklace.
Apparently by wearing Leah's mom's heart necklace is how Leah and Jane got here. Also if they put it on here they won't go back to their own time. It's very strange and no one can explain it. It's ok, maybe your mother knew it was going to happen and fixed it so you'd come here to be with us
Leah smiled and gave me a small hug. Thanks Darry, that helps a lot.
I smiled back at her,not a problem.
We finished making breakfast and put the plates out on the table. We were both silent for a while until Leah broke the silence. Ummmm Darry?, she asked turning pink.
She mumbled something that I couldn't hear.
I had understood exactly what she said, but I wanted her to say it slowly so I asked her to repeat what she said. Leah blushed more and then said slowly Do you think Johnny likes me?
She then looked at me as if waiting for an answer. I thought about it for a while. This seemed bigger than just a yes or no type of answer. Thoughts of Leah and Johnny together flooded my mind. They seemed to be meant for each other. I shook my head to clear out all of the mushy thoughts that were invading my brain. Leah was looking at me curiously. she asked gently.
I gave her a weak smile and said, Yes I think he likes you, I think he likes you a lot, but is too shy to tell you.
She looked extremely thoughtful and then got up from her chair. Thanks Darry you've helped a lot
No problem, I said as I watched her leave the room. No problem at all.
Leah's POV
I left the kitchen feeling slightly lightheaded. Johnny liked me! I had a feeling he did and then Darry clarified it. Ok Leah calm down you don't want to end up all stupid and giggly about this, I told myself.
I walked into the room that Jane and I shared and bounced on the bed. She raised her arm and tried to swat at me. Guess what Jane? I asked excitedly.
Ohhh no I thought, remind me to smack myself if I get too girly You're ruining my sleep, she answered.
I shook my head. No even better than that, I cried.
I heard incoherent mumbling coming from the bed and then Jane sat up and asked sarcastically Now what could be better then ruining my sleep?
Johnny likes me, I told her.
I know, she said and sank back down onto the pillow.
How could you know?
Everyone knows, now go away cause I'm tired. Ok ok I'm leaving.
Everyone knows? Oh great another time when I'm oblivious to all that's going on around me. I took a deep breath and told myself that little scene in the bedroom was the absolute last time I was going to make a fool of myself over Johnny. Now how am I going to get him to say something? I began to think and after a while I could almost hear gears turning in my head. I walked to the couch with my machine brain and fell asleep.
Hey guys do you think she's awake?
A loud voice brought me back from Sleep land. Then another one retorted, Well Two- Bit she's probably awake now.
I opened my eyes and saw the gang standing over me. I took a pillow and placed it over my head only to have it removed by Sodapop. C'mon Kitten it's time to wake up, he said
Yeah it's a bright and sunny day, added Dally
. I rolled over on my stomach and flipped them all off. they all cried.
Not much of a morning person is she? remarked Steve
. I felt someone gently push me. C'mon Leah you gotta get up now, said Johnny.
I rolled over and looked at him. Hmmmm perfect kiss moment, I thought, no wait we're not alone. Then something happened that I didn't even expect. Maybe she's like Sleeping Beauty,said Two Bit jokingly.
Sleeping Beauty? What the hell? cried Dally.
You know she has to be awakened by a kiss.
Wow is it just me or did it get hot in here all of a sudden?
Well you could just wait until she blushes enough to wake her up, joked Soda.
I sat up and ran my hand over my hair. Ok I'm up are you happy now?
, said Steve.
All of the other's nodded. Yeah it's good to have in the land of the living, said Darry.
Welcome to daytime, added Pony.
I just looked at them all Ok then.
Two Bit turned to Dally and muttered something. I could make out too bad, Johnny, kiss, likes, Leah,.
Dally just smiled and slapped Two Bit on the back. Male bonding, go figure. In a minute Johnny and I were all alone in the room. He sat next to me on the couch and said my name. I turned to look at him and at that moment he kissed me. I was shocked.
He smiled at me, Well I am 16 years old so if I kiss a girl it shouldn't be a big deal.
I responded by kissing him again and then we both turned red.
Oooooo what's going to happen now? See they don't even kiss until chapter 10, I'm trying not to rush this story. Please R/R.
