Chapter 38 Johnny begs Velma to take him back
After Velma left Shaggy's dorm she kept thinking to herself, "I think Shaggy and I were about to kiss and if we did what would have happened afterwards?" That thought stuck inside of Velma's mind because she wasn't about to let herself forget about it. Velma headed over to the coffee shop where she dumped Johnny that day. There was Johnny standing in front of the coffee shop waiting for Velma to come. "You wanted to see me?" Velma said as she greeted him. "OMG I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU!" Johnny cried as he hugged Velma. "I miss you so much Ms. Jinkies and I'm happy you came." "That's because you keep sending me a bunch of text messages with frowny faces" Velma stated. "Well I'm glad you came. I want to talk about what happened and tell you in person how deeply sorry I am. It was wrong and stupid of me to think that you would cheat on me" said Johnny. "I couldn't agree with you more about you being stupid" Velma sarcastically said. "I deserve that insult I admit it" Johnny exclaimed as he took Velma by the hand. However Velma took her hand back and scolded Johnny about everything, "You have a lot of nerve thinking that I would ever cheat on you especially with Shaggy after I told you many times Shaggy and I are just friends." "I know it was stupid of me because knowing you Velma the last thing you would ever want to do is get back together with the guy who broke up with you because of his pet" Johnny pointed out. "Scooby Doo is more than his pet. He is Shaggy's best friend in the whole wide world. To this day it was still stupid of Shaggy to break up with me because of Scooby but he apologized to me about it and so did Scooby because he felt awful about our break up. I forgave them both and we were able to move on with our lives. Despite what happened between me and Shaggy when he kissed me we were able to move past that and things are better between us and you had a lot of nerve to bring it up when I thought that you forgave me for not telling you sooner" Velma angrily said.
After Velma was done talking he felt awful, looked up at Velma and said, "You're right and I'm deeply sorry for everything. I admit that it was wrong for me to ask you to stop hanging out with your friend but can you blame me for being jealous? Your friends with the guy who broke your heart and I thought that you two were getting back together and I feared losing you. I beg of your Velma Dinkley please give me another chance. If you can find it in your heart to take me back I would be a very happy and lucky man to have a girl like you in my life again" Johnny said as he was begging on knees. "If you get up from the floor and stop embarrassing yourself and me because people are staring at us I'll think about it and give you my answer when I'm good and ready is that ok with you?" Velma asked. "Of course and I'll wait as long as possible for your answer because I want you to make the right choice" Johnny answered before he left to go back home. As for Velma while she was walking back to her dorm she kept thinking about everything that just happened and thought to herself, "Johnny was really sincere when he apologized to me. Plus I can't between he was on his hands and knees. I wonder if maybe I should give Johnny another chance." The idea of getting back together with Johnny did seem tempting but for some reason she kept thinking about Shaggy. She remembered the first time he told her how much he really cared about her which led to Velma agreeing to be his girlfriend. Velma also thought about the secret dates they had and never told anyone about it. However Velma promised herself to never get back together with Shaggy because of how their relationship ended.
As soon as Velma arrived Daphne was reading a fashion magazine. "Daphne can we talk?" asked Velma. "Sure what's up?" Daphne asked. "Well it's like this I just met up with Johnny after he wouldn't stop calling and texting me. While I was with him Johnny apologized because he blames himself for causing our break up. He realized that Shaggy and I are friends and asked me to take him back. I told him I needed time to think about it. I admit that I miss Johnny because our relationship was special but I'm not what I should do. What do you think?" Velma said. Daphne thought about what Velma just told her and gave her a piece of helpful advice, "Velma I think that you should follow your heart and think about what you want and what will make you happy. If you want to get back together with Johnny I'll support your decision. But if you decide not to get back with Johnny because you feel it isn't right I'll support that too." Velma thanked Daphne for the helpful advice even though she was unsure of what to do. Before Velma went to sleep that night she thought to herself, "This decision is going to take me a while to decide but I will make a choice very soon."
