gibsie could tell you were johnny's younger sister easily. and even though johnny is his bestfriend, that didn't stop him from falling completely head over heels in love with you. he couldn't tell johnny, though. he would kill him.

not only were you younger, but dating your bestfriend's sibling is just not it.

so he did the next best thing he could, be foolishly in love at a certain distance. and it was fucking hell, to say the least. it was highly obvious too, he wasn't necessarily trying nor being discrete about it. he couldn't even talk to claire about it because she was definitely going to tell shannon, who was going to tell johnny, regardless.

despite it all, there were too many close calls for you not to know what he was doing or trying to do.

standing in the tommen college clinic, he helped you bandage up a wound. when he saw you accidentally trip down the stairs, he had impulsively asked to help you without knowing that every touch made him want more. after finishing, he also very impulsively placed a long kiss on top of your head.

then once he heard the iconic shoes that belonged to johnny, he took a huge step back.
