Chapter nineteen

Lily's POV

I sat beside Justine and watched her; she looked deep in thought,

"What's going on?" She glanced up, saw me, and grinned, "Oh, nothing, just wondering about Johnny" I knew this was serious, "is he okay?"

"He told me that he was off shit……….but I've heard different" I nodded my head, I had heard different too. I knew that he was on shit, he did it with M&M some times, I didn't really approve of that kind of stuff, I knew what that could do to a friendship, I knew what it was doing to Mark and Bryon's, sure after they had confronted one another Mark had said that he would stop, but, I knew that he hadn't.

I nodded again and hugged her "I just don't know what to do" She cried to me "Talk to him, talking is really important, if he loves you as much as you think he does then he'll stop, man" she gave me a look, then, smiled and nodded to "thanks" she left then, and I decided to get going as well.

I stopped at M&M's house and grinned as I climbed through his window, "hey baby" I breathed down his neck as I kissed it softly, "mmmmmmmmmmm you taste good" h grinned at me "do I?" He spun around and kissed the top of my boob, "you do too" I blushed and grinned, I grabbed the guitar and strummed it softly;

(Extraordinary Girl By Greenday)

When I was finished he grinned at me, I love that song, he whispered, before covering my mouth with his and kissing me slowly, pushing me down on the bed and running his hand over my back in circles, I groaned into his mouth as he pushed me down harder onto the bed, I grinned "oh baby" he grinned and I rolled over so that he was lying under me, I smirked at him and broke the kiss.

"Now I'm in control", I drawled, he merely smiled, "I can't wait to see what you do"

Courtney's POV

Everyone was out and Darry was just coming home from work, he came into the kitchen and I grabbed his arm, "We need to talk" he looked at me, "I want you to stop, hitting me isn't making things better and I can see you don't like it, cutting isn't the best thing ever to happen either, okay? So you need to chill, and to do that the two of us are going to Florida okay?" "How will we get the money?" "My grandparents live there so we have some place to stay and they're paying for everything, Two-Bit and Mrs. Carlson have said that they'd come over and help okay? Everything will be fine" With that I grabbed his hand and dragged him to our bedroom to get packed.

Taylor's POV

I wandered around holding my baby, Soda had sent a letter saying that so far everything was fine, he was in a training camp and everything was going okay, I knew that it wasn't. I grinned at her and kissed her softly as I looked at food, Courtney and Darry were leaving so I was going to bring them a cake home, I got a nice chocolate one and bought it, as I was leaving I looked at all the people standing around, all the couples, the lucky shits.

A/N: That may be short, I'm not sure, this story is nowhere near the end anymore, anyways, I hope you liked it, review and Peace!
