Emotions are Hell

Finally! I got this chapter done. I am so happy. At this rate I might get 2 more chapters up before Spring quarter starts again...but I'll just aim low and hope for one more after this one. Hope you all like this.
Enjoy.
2 days before Spring Break
It had been a week or so since Sissy stayed over at Johnny's place for the weekend, and things for both of them had changed a lot. The amount of times that boys bugged her hadn't even remotely lightened up, and to add to that there was a growing attraction between Johnny and Sissy that everyone could see, only making the boys even more desperate. Sissy and Johnny sat in Spanish class trying to pay attention to what the teacher was saying until a note landed in front of Sissy. She sighed annoyed, catching Johnny's attention, who scowled at the note in front of her before his eyes flicked back to the teacher.
Sissy opened the note and regretted it after reading the first three lines. She skipped the rest of the overly descriptive passage of what the boy wanted to do to her and read who it was from. It read Jason, one of Bumper's friends. She crumpled the paper and when the teacher took a pause she walked over and threw it away and then returned to her seat. Johnny's eyes followed her and the moment she sat down another note landed on her desk.
"Ok students, please partner up for this exercise." Mister Golo said. Johnny got up and walked over to Sissy, arriving at the same time Jason did. Sissy looked between the two boys and shrank down in her seat from the obvious testosterone overload.
"Move Test." Jason growled.
"You first Cruet." Johnny replied, his fists clenching. Jason knew better than to get into a fight with Johnny, turning and leaving, though he left yet another note on Sissy's desk. Johnny took a seat next to Sissy and looked at the two notes.
"What are those?" Johnny asked quietly as they started to work on the exercise in class. Johnny saw Sissy turn green.
"Trust me, you don't want to know." Sissy said. This only peaked Johnny's interest and Sissy could see that.
"Feel free to read them. Don't say I didn't warn you." Sissy groaned as she worked. Johnny opened one, read the first three lines and then crumpled the paper in one hand. He didn't need to even open the next one to know it was a continuation. They worked on the exercise until the last five minutes of class. The bell rang as they finished packing up and left the class, Johnny right next to her. Sissy noticed that when Johnny was with her that maybe only one boy got near her, other than her friends.
"Johnny, why are you walking with me, other than that we have the same fifth?" Sissy asked.
"I don't trust ninety percent of the bastards in our class." Johnny said, his voice low and strained. Sissy looked at him, shocked. She never knew he could be so protective. Once they got to gym class, and since today was just an educational movie day, they didn't change. Johnny sat next to Sissy, deterring most of the boys in the class, save their friends. Just as the class was about to end, Jason started to walk over, smirking arrogantly at Sissy.
"So what did you think of my notes?" Jason asked huskily.
"You're a sick bastard that's what I think." Sissy replied. Jason glared and took a step forward only to be blocked by Johnny.
"Back the fuck up." Johnny growled his arms to his sides and his fists clenched. Jason glared but backed away as the bell rang for the last class of the day. Johnny walked with Sissy to her art class, since his auto shop was right down the hall. Beth, Renee and Leslie all smirked as they walked into the room with Sissy, who was blushing something awful.
"That is sooooooo cute." Beth giggled.
"Shut up." Sissy hissed, embarrassed.
"Oh come on Sissy. I know you're not that stupid. He totally likes you." Beth snickered.
"He's just being a good friend." Sissy defended.
"Right, so is that why in the last week I've caught him checking you out or glaring down any guy that so much as looks at you a funny way? Or that ever since we stayed at his house, any guys that's made an advance towards you, usually a day later doesn't even so much as look at you once Johnny comes around. Is it Sissy?" Renee quipped. Sissy was unaware that Johnny checked her out, but she knew very well of the rest and turned even redder. Fact was she liked it, a lot.
"He's like all over her. What's up with him being all noble and stuff?" a girl asked. Sissy looked towards the group of gossiping girls.
"I know right, he was like, never that way with me." another girl whined.
"It's so not fair. Why does she get all the doting that we never got?" one girl complained loudly. Sissy looked to her friends, who all had smirks on their faces.
"That's Ashley, Caryn, and Lilly, three of Johnny's ex's. Yes, they're talking about you." Renee snickered.
"Why?" Sissy asked.
"Because Johnny never gave them that much attention. Yes, Johnny did care about them, but as far as being protective or territorial like he is with you, no, you're the first." Leslie giggled.
"They're jealous of you because Johnny's actually showing how much he cares." Beth giggled. Sissy's heart was hammering in her chest. She had never had a boy show that he cared this deeply for her and it was all overwhelming for her. As she tried desperately to pay attention in art class her mind kept drifting to the recent events and she scolded herself for not realizing before of how protective Johnny had been. Her mind had completely drifted off into la-la-land and soon enough the bell rang, startling her from her thoughts as she left the classroom. Sissy walked home, luckily no one was following her, giving her time to think and figure out her crazy emotions. She walked inside and smelled salmon with lemon butter. Sissy smiled briefly before going up to her room, her dog Missy in toe.
"Sissy, is everything alright?" Her mother asked after twenty minutes. Sissy rolled over and looked at her mother with confusion in her eyes.
"I don't know mom." Sissy admitted. Her mother walked over and sat down on the bed next to her.
"What's on your mind?" her mother asked.
"I'm having boy issues. Not just the mob chasing me, which is getting annoying, but also a boy who likes me, whom I've liked for a long time." Sissy said.
"Who is the lucky boy?" Her mother asked, smiling at Sissy's blush.
"Promise not to get mad?" Sissy asked. Granted her mother liked Johnny, and so did her father on most accounts.
"As long as he's not like any of your ex's, I'll be fine." Her mother said.
"Johnny Test." Sissy said. She expected her mother to scowl at her, but instead received a smile.
"He's changed a lot since we last saw him. Why are you confused honey?" Her mother asked.
"I like him, a lot actually, and he's showing signs of liking me, but I just don't' know how to go about making it go farther." Sissy said.
"What signs is he showing?" Her mother asked curiously.
"He walks me to class to keep the boys away, he glares at any boy that so much as makes a come on, and stays near me as a deterrent to the boys. It's like a territorial claim or something but more drastic." Sissy said.
"No, it is a territorial thing. He's not being pushy is he?" Her mother asked defensively.
"No. In a way, it's kinda sweet. Apparently he's being more protective over me than any of his ex-girlfriends." Sissy said. Her mother snickered as they sat there for a moment.
"Sissy, if he really does care about you, then he'll come to you." Her mother said. Sissy smiled at her mother as she stood to leave.
"Hey mom." Sissy said, making her mother turn around and face her.
"Thanks. And when is dinner going to be ready. It smells good." Sissy said.
"It'll be ready in about an hour; you know how it's slow cook and such. Your welcome dear." Her mother said smiling before turning back around and leaving. Sissy began to doodle with random colors, ignoring her homework until the last minute. When she finally realized what she was doodling, it was too late to get rid of it. On a piece of lined paper, originally designated for her homework, was a red heart with yellow surrounding it and even orange spikes surrounding that, making it look like fire and Johnny's odd hair. Written in the middle of the red, flaming heart was 'Johnny Test & Sissy Blakely' in bold black. Sissy blushed at her drawing, but decided not to tear it up and instead put it in her nightstand drawer before being called to dinner.
3rd day of Spring Break
Sissy walked her dog Missy around the small town of Porkbelly, her friends walking with her, talking idly of what they had done and wanted to do. Sissy smiled as her friends talked and as she talked to them.
"Oh, there's the skate park. I wonder if Bo is there." Beth giggled before directing the group that way. Sissy felt her heart accelerate when she saw Johnny there.
"And there's Sissy's favorite boy." Renee chuckled, making Sissy blush even redder.
"Bo!" Beth shouted, catching the boy's attention. Johnny smiled and kicked his skateboard into his hands as the girls walked over. The moment that Beth had called them about several other guys all looked their way, most of them looking at Sissy, so Johnny took it upon himself to walk over, drape his arm over her shoulder and walk her back over to where the group was, the girls all following of course. Even though they weren't together, Johnny was making it a point to any guys that Sissy was not available, and she didn't even know he was doing this.
"So how's your spring break going so far?" Sissy asked as she tried to control her erratic heart. Damn my emotions! Sissy growled mentally.
"Calm so far. And yours?" Johnny asked, pulling her closer to him. Johnny's heart was beating just as wildly as hers, only difference was he could keep his cool and she was struggling to do so, the exact opposite of when they were kids.
"Kind of calm and kind of crazy." Sissy said, both referring to her break and her body. Images flashed through her head of just pinning him down and kissing him till his lips were raw, but she knew better. More graphic images flashed through Johnny's head and he began to shake his head slightly to rid his mind of them. I need to control myself. Johnny told himself. After they all talked for a brief amount of time the boys went back to skateboarding as the girls watched and chatted. Missy rolled over and let the sun warm her soft pink belly as Sissy rubbed it gently.
"You're such a good girl." Sissy said lovingly to her dog. She looked back to her friends and tried to listen to them, but her mind kept going back to Johnny, and likewise when Johnny got a break from skateboarding, just long enough for his friends to do their tricks, his mind kept going back to Sissy. Sissy couldn't stop thinking of how his blue eyes twinkled when he saw her and how his arms felt draping over her, whereas Johnny couldn't stop thinking about how her body fit nicely with his and how soft her skin and hair was. It wasn't until these thoughts crossed through their heads that they realized they were beginning to fall faster and harder for each other, and sooner or later, one of them would need to act before the other gave up.
Fluffy I know. Hope you all liked it. I hope to get another chapter up in this next week, which I'm confident I can do, but still, life happens and we all know how crazy that can get. R&R please!
