PLEASE READ: Those of you that are fans of Two of Us, there is a good chance that I won't be updating today. For once, my schedule is pretty busy, and I still have to write the next chapter, but I promise it'll be updated by tomorrow or Friday. :)

I hope you find this chapter amusing. When you get done reading, please review. It means a bunch, and your reviews make my day. :)

The following week, Johnny got paired up with the other Johnny for a biology project. Johnny was nervous. That was the kid who was bullying his brother. He was the one who coaxed that Bobby kid to trip Daniel preventing him from being on the soccer team.

Also, he and his friends took to harassing him outside of school. The other day, Daniel was riding his bike home. Johnny and his friends rode up beside him on their motorcycles. They closed in around him; they forced him down the steep hill.

Daniel threw his bike away. His forehead was badly injured and bloody. It was absolutely disgusting. Sure, Johnny had seen a lot more in Tulsa, but something about that made his stomach churn.

Daniel was furious too. He looked like he was about to punch a wall. Lucille had to force him to sit down. She had her arm wrapped around him and was talking to him in a calm, gentle voice. Eventually, she had gotten through to him. When that happened, he let loose. He buried his face in his hands and cried his eyes out.

It not only broke Lucille's heart, but it broke Johnny's as well.

When Johnny figured out the project would have to be worked on at home, he became nervous. He couldn't bring other Johnny into the same house as his brother. He couldn't go to Johnny's house either. How would he explain that to Daniel?

The sharp noise of the bell brought Johnny out of his thoughts. He packed up his belongings like the other students. When he realized he got to go to lunch, he picked up the pace. Johnny slipped his arm into the handle of his backpack and let it drop onto his shoulder. He then hurried towards the door to meet Daniel for lunch.

"LaRusso, wait . . ." someone called. Johnny stopped moving and turned to look at who called him. It was the other Johnny. The tanned boy froze; in response, Johnny Lawrence smirked. "We're doing this project at your house. Surely, your brother won't mind." Lawrence and his friends walked off, laughing and high-fiving each other. Johnny gulped and slowly headed towards the cafeteria.

Johnny got his food and went to find Daniel. He was with that blonde girl again. The girl that dated Johnny's project partner. Johnny rolled his eyes but moved towards them slowly. His grip on his lunch tray tightened when he heard the laughter of Daniel's bullies. He focused his attention on his brother. Johnny noticed the other Johnny stick a piece of blueberry pie in Daniel's seat. He stopped in his tracks and watched what happened.

Daniel took a seat in the pie. It swished underneath his weight. Daniel made no effort to get up. Instead, he sat there. His facial expression turned sour. He finally threw his fork onto the table and sat up. A big purple stain was on his pants. Daniel grabbed a handful of pie and walked towards Lawrence.

He was too busy laughing at his friends to notice Daniel moving towards him. It was too late anyway. Daniel smeared the squished pie all over Johnny's face and shirt. The blonde reacted quickly. He pushed Daniel away, and the two got into it.

A couple lunch monitors pushed Johnny out of the way to remove the fighting boys from each other.

"That's enough, you two! Knock it off!" one of the monitors yelled. One grabbed both of Daniel's arms and pulled him away.

"What happened?" the one holding Daniel commanded. Johnny looked at the lunch monitors innocently.

"I don't know. I was just sitting there laughing with my friends when he came up to me and did this," Lawrence lied, pointing to his shirt. Johnny rolled his eyes. The lunch monitors nodded their heads and turned towards Daniel.

"As for you . . ."

"He started it! He put the pie underneath me when I sat down!" Daniel exclaimed in disbelief.

"As for you . . ." the man continued, ignoring Daniel. "You're going to the principal's office." The monitor released. "Get going." He commanded. Daniel rolled his eyes and stormed off to the principal's office.

Lawrence approached Johnny in gym that afternoon. Only one of his friends was with him, but Johnny was still afraid beyond belief. Lawrence stared down at him with his usual smirk.

"LaRusso, you need to control your brother," he said. Johnny felt himself starting to get angry. "He got a little crazy at lunch."

"He didn't do anything," Johnny snapped. Lawrence's face didn't change. He felt a little foolish yelling at this kid like he did. Johnny never acted that way. "I saw everything."

Lawrence continued laughing and walked away. Johnny sighed and walked over to the bleachers. He didn't like that kid. He didn't want to do his biology project with him. Mr. Kelly blew his whistle, and the students all ran over towards him. Johnny went because he wanted to make this period go by as fast as possible.

Lucille was in the kitchen when Johnny got home, and Daniel's stained pants were lying on the worn down couch. Johnny tossed his backpack next to his brother's pants.

"Where's Daniel?" he asked, looking at his mother. Lucille turned around from the stove.

"Oh, he went to go thank the maintenance man for fixing his bike," she explained. Johnny unzipped his backpack and grabbed his biology folder. Along with the project, Mr. Henderson gave them homework. Johnny grabbed his pencil and moved to the table. It was time to struggle.

Lucille stepped into her boys' room. Johnny was lying on his bed, doodling in his math notebook.

"Hey, I'm going to get Daniel. I shouldn't be gone long. Don't stay up too much longer," she explained. Johnny looked up from his notebook and smiled.

"I'll get ready for bed now," he said. Lucille returned his smile and went to go grab her oldest. Johnny closed his notebook and tossed it onto the floor along with his pencil. He got underneath the covers and closed his eyes. Too bad he wasn't tired.

Fifteen minutes later, Daniel stepped into the room. Johnny opened his eyes and looked at him. He actually looked happy. For once since Lawrence started bullying him, Daniel looked happy.

"Good night, tadpole," Daniel said, taking his pants off. He unbuttoned his shirt and slipped into bed.

"Good night, Daniel," Johnny answered, closing his eyes. Within moments, both boys were asleep.

The part where Johnny sticks the pie underneath Daniel so he sits in it was actually a part of the movie, but they edited it out. I found a video of it online, and I thought it'd be fun to write, so I included it into my story. :) A little interesting background information in case you didn't know!

review loves. :)
