A/N: Thanks for the reviews, I'm glad that you guys are enjoying the story so far… Chap. 3 is dealing with Johnny and Alli's thoughts about the time they shared during 808. Happy Reading!
Chapter 3: The next day…
Alli's POV:
When I got to school, I was walking to my locker and accidently bumped into K.C. He looked really nervous, so I asked him what was wrong. He said that he really liked Claire but he didn't know how to go about telling her. As we were walking to class we passed by the booth for the rose grams. I suggested that he ask Claire to the dance with the rose. He was cautious about the whole thing but he eventually gave in. While helping K.C. I saw Anya and Sav, they were still fighting and it looked like Anya wasn't about to give in. I hope that my brother learns something from this. Whatever. I hope I get a rose from Johnny because if Claire gets a rose before me I'll die!
Later that day:
We were in the media immersion class when the rose grams arrived for all the recipients I was pleasantly surprised to see that I got a rose, I was however completely crushed to see that it was anonymous. Another surprise that day was that K.C. wasn't the only one to give Claire a rose! Maybe I've gone about this all wrong, maybe I should be quieter, so that when I do speak out people will notice me. Ugh I need to find out who sent me this damn rose! After school was over I went up to Anya and ask her if she knew who sent me the rose, she said that she couldn't because if she could she would have gone after some random guy that gave her a rose (you could almost see the smoke coming from Sav when she said that). Sav walked away quickly, when he was out of earshot Anya told me that she did know and then whispered it in my ear… I was so excited when she told me that it was Johnny that I decided to look for him. He was in detention; I walked in there feeding the teacher in charge some story that Mr. Simpson had given me detention and failed to mention it to him, he didn't buy it but let me stay anyway. I told Johnny that I knew that it was him that sent me the rose. He got all nervous and told me that he regretted it and that he couldn't date me because I was too young for him. I felt like crying so I tried to walk out but couldn't because you cant just walk out of detention. So there I was next to the boy that I loved, and who didn't love me back in detention… Worse day ever!
That Night:
I got home just in time for dinner, I told my parents that I was late because I had to work on the robot project and that I didn't call because I got caught up on the work. They bought it and told me to go to my room so that I could do my homework. When I finished my homework I logged on to my messenger account hoping that I talk to Anya, luckily she was and she was telling me how crazy it was that a guy had sent her a rose so soon after the break-up with my brother, she then asked me how it had gone with Johnny after I talked to him. I told her that it was a disaster and that he wasn't interested. She said that that didn't make any sense because he wouldn't have given me a rose if he didn't like me. I thought about this and told Anya that she was right and that I'd try to talk to Johnny tomorrow, I was tired so I told Anya that I'd talk to her later and logged off. I went straight to bed, thinking lazily about what Anya said, why did Johnny send me a rose if he wasn't interested? I guess I wont find out until I talk to him again tomorrow… it's going to be an interesting day, to say the least.
Johnny's PoV:
So I get to school and I see Alli, she's talking to one of those dorky friends of hers, cant they just leave her alone for once? He was asking her about those dumb rose grams that they were selling for the "sweetheart week". She looked so excited on the prospect of the idea of the rose grams. She was telling her friend that it would be a great way to get the attention of some girl that he liked. Good, he's not interested in her. Wait, why do I care, I know that I can never date her; it'll just turn out the same as all the others. Ugh, I decide to make fun of them so that my friends wouldn't get all suspicious. They roll their eyes and give the counter girl the rose.
Later that day:
During lunch I was thinking about the way that Alli looked while talking to her friend about the rose, I decided to get one for her. I told the guys that I needed to go to the restroom and that I would be right back. Like if they cared where I went but I didn't want them to start asking questions. I go up to the counter girl and ask her if I could buy a rose without letting the person know who it was from, she said that it was, but before I could pay she asked if it was for Alli. I made a face, how did she know? She knew by my face that it was but she told me that she was at the camp with us, so she figured that it was for her. Damn, I guess I'm not that secretive. I got detention for disrupting class, great day. During detention Alli walks in and asks me if I was the person who sent me the rose. Damn, why can't girls keep their mouths shut? I tell her the truth, well most of it. I tell her that it was me, but that I couldn't date a niner girl, it wouldn't look good for my rep. She looked heartbroken. Double damn. I knew that I would end up hurting this girl, but it really is for her own good, if we were to date it would be so much worse, right? Ugh, it was torture sitting next to her without being able to tell her the real reason that it wouldn't work out between us.
That Night:
I got home and my parents started giving me grief about having detention and tell me to my room and do my homework. After dinner Bruce calls me up and asks if I wanted to hang out, I tell him that I couldn't because my parents were being morons agains and that I would see the guys at school tomorrow. I lay on my bed, thinking about the way everything went down today, and contemplating what Alli was doing now. She probably hates me now. It's for the best; I'd be nothing but trouble for her. She'll eventually figure that out by now, if not she will soon. Tomorrow's going to be interesting, or maybe it wont be, and that case I'll know that Alli gave up on me, I hope for her sake that it's the latter.
