Chapter 2-
I take a quick shower and slip on a pair of dark wash jeans, a plain white tshirt, and a leather jacket. I walk downstairs and glance at the clock which reads 6:45. "Time to get Jo" I think to myself as I slip on my Vans and grab the keys to my car. I walk down my driveway to my metallic blue Jeep. Once I've pulled up to Johanna's driveway I open the door until I see her coming out the door, she's wearing skinny jeans, tall brown boots, and a Ramones tshirt. Her long reddish brown hair is straightened to perfection. "Hey Jo, lookin' good." I say to her as she opens the passenger side door. "Thanks Pete, you're not lookin' too bad yourself." She replies. I lightly chuckle and shake my head. I back out of her driveway and she turns on the radio which is playing her favorite song Stereo Hearts, she sings along and dances in her seat which makes me laugh even more.
We arrive at the drive-in, which as always is playing some 80's movie which tonight is Back To the Future. I find a place to park and leave to get snacks from the concession stand. I buy a large coke and an order of nachos. When I return to the car she sees I have food and her face immediately brightens. "Wow Jo that's the look only nachos can bring out of you." I joke. "Shut up!" She says defensively, knowing I'm right. We watch the movie and Jo finishes off the nachos and I drink most of the coke. Where we're finished I have an idea. "Hey Jo wanna go somewhere?" I ask "Sure, where?" She asks. "You'll see." I answer and she rolls her eyes.
I make her put on a blind fold so she's surprised when we arrive. I drive for several minutes until we reach my favorite beach, La Jolla Cove. I park the car and lead Jo by the hand to the beach. I gently remove her blindfold and she is immediately captivated by the beautiful sunset. "Woah." She says while she's staring at the shore line. "You like it?" I ask her. "Peeta it's beautiful." She answered, amazed. "Gees Jo, I never knew you were such a softie." I say sarcastically. She gives me a dirty look and soon returns to staring. "I like to come out here and paint on the weekends." I say softly. She nods and I take her hand in mine and lead her up towards the field of flowers that rests directly above the sand. "I wonder why there are flowers up here it's sorta weird huh?" I say breaking the silence. She nods her head. I know I said that Johanna was totally insane which I'm not denying and she's obviously not your average girly girl but sometimes (rarely) you can bring out her sensitive side of her. She motions towards the beach so we walk over to the sand and sit down next to each other, admiring the sunset. Soon I look over and find her staring at me. I look over to her and meet her striking green eyes.
She leans towards me obviously seeking a kiss, I immediately comply and put my hand on her cheek delicately. We lightly kiss and as soon as we pull apart I find myself wanting to kiss her soft lips once more. I ignore this desire because she leans her head on my shoulder and I wrap my arm protectively around her. About a half hour later I look to her and see she is seconds away from falling asleep so I remove my jacket, put it around her, pick her up bridal style, and carry her to my car.
Once we're to the Jeep I open her door and put her in the seat, fastening her seat belt before I close the door. I get in the drivers side and start driving. When I'm about half way to her house I look over to see her looking up at me. "What is it?" I ask quietly. "Nothin' I'm just looking at my new boyfriend." She says sleepily. This thought brings a smile to my face and the first thought that comes to my mind is: "Johanna Mason is my girlfriend this could be the most unlikely couple in the world."
