I do not own the characters of Dirty Dancing, nor do I own the movie. Let me know what you think of this story from me. Please do read and review this one, so I know if I must go on with it.
I wanted to get of the bar chair and Dave looked at me puzzled. I actually wanted to walk outside, but Dave grabbed my arm. "What's the matter Baby?" He asked as he saw my face.
I was crying and I just wanted to go away from here. "Nothing." I said a bit too loudly though. Some people were looking at me; Dave grabbed me tightly and shushed me for a bit.
"You can tell me. You know that." Dave whispered as he was stroking my hair.
"I know Dave, but I don't know if I can right now. I have the feeling to go away, but on the other side I don't want to go." I said as I looked at his face, he tried to smile as he took a tissue to rub my face dry. "Gosh, I don't know what to do anymore now." I whispered and looked back at the guy.
"Has it something to do with the guy I pointed you?" He asked as he saw me looking at him again, I nodded only without smiling. I couldn't get my eyes of him anyway. Dave looked at him again and Baby looked away, he saw that the guy was still walking back and forth but was looking at the people in the bar now.
"Is that Johnny?" He asked softly as he kept on looking at the guy. "Yeah it's him; I never thought I would see him here." I whispered as I didn't dare to look at him again. I was afraid, but afraid of what?
I could feel that Johnny was looking around; Dave was still looking at him till he noticed that Johnny was looking at him now as well. He didn't smile as Dave saw that his eyes went to me. "I think he saw you now." Dave whispered as he laid a hand on my shoulder.
I looked at him when he did that. "What do you mean?" I asked stupidly, I wasn't deaf though but I didn't want to hear what he said.
"You heard me perfectly well miss. I said that he's looking at you right now." Dave said as he looked at my face. I didn't know if I could smile or not, I didn't know if I could walk or not. It felt like I wasn't on earth anymore. Because I looked at Johnny after Dave told me he was looking at me.
We just looked into each other's eyes and after a moment, Johnny turned around and walked to the toilets. My eyes were following him and I started to cry again. I wanted to run to him, but was holding myself back. I wasn't sure if he would be happy to see me again, but I was sure I was happy for some reason.
I wanted to see those gorgeous eyes again, the smile I love to see and the way he bites on his lip. "Stop dreaming Baby." Dave said and I jumped a bit, I looked at Dave as I tried to smile.
"Maybe you should go to him. Try to talk to him." Dave whispered and I shook my head, I really didn't dare to do that.
"What are you thinking off?" He asked curiously as I was dreaming for a bit.
"Thom got the same smile as Johnny and the same eyes. I never thought about it, but now that I've seen his eyes again it makes me think." I said and smiled while I thought about my son.
"You must be proud of your son." Dave said happily as he wanted to hug me, till someone walked accidently against him.
"Hey watch it will you?" Dave asked as he looked who did that. I looked at him as well and almost fell of my chair. Johnny was standing there and he was looking at me.
"Sorry sir, I didn't mean." Johnny said as he was hesitating a bit. Dave looked at him and then back at me.
"I think I better can leave you two alone for a moment." He said as he smiled at me, I shook my head and grabbed his arm. He pulled his arm back and gave me a kiss on my cheek. "Do not worry too much; I think he wants to talk to you." He whispered in my ear and he walked away.
I turned back to the bar and sighed deeply, Johnny was looking at me and after a moment he sat down next to me. "You want something to drink?" He asked a bit shy.
"Sure, whatever you want." I said softly as I still wasn't looking at him. Johnny looked at the bartender and ordered 2 beers.
"So." Johnny tried to start a conversation as he was still looking at me.
"So what Johnny?" I asked as I was grabbing more courage to talk to him.
"Euhm." He said and looked down as I was looking at him now. "I don't know where to start." He added.
"Just say what you want." I said as I sat straight now.
"Baby?" He asked after a long moment of silence, I looked back at him as I was drinking my beer when he was thinking.
"Yeah?" I asked curiously, he tried to smile but it didn't work out. Gosh please let him smile, I was thinking as I looked in his eyes.
"I'm really sorry for leaving you." He whispered as he started to blush.
"Sorry? And you just say that after 2 years Johnny?" I said it must have been the alcohol I guess but for some reason I was getting angry now.
"I don't know what else to say Baby." He said as he looked down now.
"You got on with your life? You have a wife and children?" I asked instantly as I was curious now, but still a bit angry. He looked up again.
"No and you?" He asked as he was trying to smile again, I was blushing now as I really wanted to see that smile. I looked down and thought about my son, actually our son.
"I don't have anybody. I'm leaving America soon for starting a new life together with my son." I said as I couldn't lie to him for some reason.
"Son?" Johnny asked stupidly. "Did I miss something?" He asked again as I only nodded on his first question.
"Yes Johnny, you missed a lot of things. The first steps, the first words and his first birthday." I said softly and looked down now. Now I couldn't bare it anymore, I needed to go away. I stood up and walked to the door.
