Unlikely Paths Of Love (9)
(Crossover) The Outsiders/Karate Kid
A/N: I'm really depressed right now. There are a lot of hate pages about The Outsiders online that I've been seeing lately, and my followers on Instagram are dropping like flies. I'm falling into depression...my only happiness is 80s movies, roleplaying and fanfiction writing. I really need support this week :(
CHAPTER 9
Ali walked down the hallway at school. Johnny was by his locker and then spotted her.
"Hey, Ali. Can I talk to you for a minute or two?"
She seemed a bit surprised. "Okay."
The two sat under a stairwell outside, where it was private, and there was a lot of trash.
"What's up?" Ali asked with a smile.
"Well...you know about...Daniel and I, right?"
"Yeah...D-Daniel told me." She drew in a breath. "I don't know if Daniel told you this already...but I honestly, honestly honestly think that you two were...I don't know. Call me crazy, but meant to be." She chuckled slightly.
"Daniel told me you think we're cute together...but you really think we're meant to be?"
She smiled and nodded.
Johnny sighed. "Don't tell no one 'bout this...but Daniel and I, we kind of…made out, you can say, last night..."
Ali's eyes widened. Her mouth went agape. She almost screamed but Johnny shushed her.
"Seriously?" Johnny said.
"I'm sorry! I'm just really excited! Eeek! Finally! Finally, finally, finally! Janiel has come alive!" She bounced up and down as Johnny told her to calm down.
"Relax, Ali. Daniel and I are taking it slow for now. Do you mind at all?"
"No, no! You and Daniel should definitely be together! I'm all for it. I'll be supporting you two." She gave a thumbs up and smiled.
"But there's another thing, too. Um...my ex-girlfriend. I still...I still love her...do you think this would be wrong?"
"Well...wouldn't she want you to be happy?" Ali asked. "Maybe...maybe she wants what's best for you. Maybe she wants you to be with Daniel, Johnny. Have you ever considered that?" Ali smiled and took his hand.
Johnny smiled back. And for once with Ali, he felt something different.
In her smile, he could sense it. It was the start of a true friendship.
"Another party?!" Johnny exclaimed as he jumped.
"Yeah...but this time it's a house party, so it can't be lame," Susan said.
"It's at Susan's house! Everyone's going to be there." Barbara offered.
Johnny gave a shaky smile. After his first experience with parties, he wasn't too excited for this one.
"O...kay. I guess I'll...think about it, at least." Johnny said, trying to sound cheerful.
"Great! Johnny, you're so cool!" Susan and Barbara said excitedly, both kissing Johnny's cheek as they giggled and walked away.
Daniel walked up to Johnny as Johnny swooned when he saw him.
"What was that about with Susan and Barbara? I'm the only one who's allowed to kiss you," Daniel said, stroking Johnny's cheek.
Johnny flushed. "Daniel...we're in the middle of the hallway where everyone can see..."
Daniel looked around. "Okay. After school, meet me in the stairwell?"
"Okay." Johnny smiled.
After school, Johnny met Daniel in the empty stairwell, going under the stairs where nobody could see. It was also where Johnny and Ali talked.
"I missed you," Daniel said, holding Johnny's hand.
"I missed you too. The only thing I could think about all day was when I could kiss you again," Johnny said with a blush.
"You're so cute when you blush. It's adorable," Daniel said with a light chuckle, kissing Johnny then nibbling at his earlobe.
"Mmph...couldn't we do this at home?" Johnny asked.
"Mom's home." Daniel responded as he felt Johnny up.
Johnny felt this was moving quite fast. "C–Can we go get ice cream, maybe? Like the ice cream you gave me when I was sick."
Daniel looked at him and gave him a small smile. "Okay, Johnny."
Johnny and Daniel sat on the patio of the ice cream shop, Daniel with peanut butter and Johnny with bubblegum.
Johnny ate his ice cream quickly, getting his face messy.
Daniel laughed. "Slow down." He gently dabbed Johnny's face to clean up the ice cream as he leaned in and gave him a small kiss.
"Daniel...what if one day you like someone else?"
"What?" Daniel looked at Johnny and touched his face. "Johnny...you're the one I really like."
Johnny widened his eyes as Daniel kissed him again.
"C'mon, let's go home. Mom's going to work, right about now." Daniel smiled.
Johnny changed into his pajamas, getting his shirt on.
"There's no point in putting your shirt on. I'm going to take it off anyways," Daniel said seductively with a wink, sitting on the bed.
Johnny turned off the lights and climbed into bed, pulling the sheets over.
The two boys gazed into each other's eyes. "I love you," Daniel said.
Johnny's eyes widened. He pulled the sheets over his head to cover his reddened face. "I'm embarrassed..."
Daniel pulled down the covers and touched Johnny's face. "I...love...you." He kissed him.
Johnny kissed back as Daniel stroked his tongue on Johnny's tongue. He then moved a bit so he was on top of Johnny and straddled him, still kissing him. He licked the right side of Johnny's neck, from the collarbone to his cheek. Johnny moaned in pleasure as Daniel bit a sweet spot near his collarbone, making him go crazy. Daniel smirked as he found out where Johnny liked being bit, biting harder as he buried his face in his neck, attacking it with kisses and tongue flicks.
Daniel massaged his hips in his hands, slowly stroking up and down Johnny's sides. He moved his hand down, undoing the drawstring of Johnny's pajama pants.
Johnny's eyes widened in panic as he pulled away. "W–what are you doing?!"
"I was just thinking...maybe we could take it a bit...farther tonight," Daniel said, feeling Johnny's pants-clad hardness.
"I don't think I'm ready for that yet..." Johnny said quietly. "...I'm sorry, Daniel."
"It's okay, Johnny. As you said, we don't have to take this so fast. It was just a thought." Daniel then moved back beside Johnny and turned to sleep.
"Hey...Daniel?"
He turned. "Yeah?"
"Do you ever...think...about me?" Johnny asked.
"I think about you all the time, Johnny."
"No...I meant...do you ever think about...dirty things?" He reddened.
Daniel's eyes widened when Johnny asked that question. He wasn't really one to fantasize, unlike Johnny was.
"Well..." Daniel looked at him. "...do you?"
Johnny covered his face by pulling the covers over again. "Y-yeah...sometimes..."
"Then why don't you want me to go farther with you?"
"I don't know...it's just we're both young, I'm only sixteen, Daniel. I really love you...and I know dirty fantasies are normal...but I never went this far with anyone before. Hell, I never even got under Epina's shirt. I'm sorry if I'm being to slow for you..."
"Johnny." Daniel kissed him again. Boy, did Johnny like kissing. "It's okay." He smiled at him.
Johnny smiled back as the two held hands and interlocked fingers.
