while i nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, as of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.

the knock at your door cause your lidded eyes to blink open slightly. your parents were out of the house, and of course, you took this opportunity to go and stay out of your room. shutting the book that ponyboy had suggested to you a while back, your finger getting caught in between the two sides slightly, you set the volume of information down.

standing up and forcing yourself to wake up, you sighed lightly and headed over to the front door. noting the rain now pouring outside from the glance out the window, you meandered your way and swiftly gripped the doorknob, opening it. finding johnny behind it, you pursed your lips in confusion slightly.

"hey," he mumbled. gazing over his figure, you took a second note of his drenched figure, jean jacket doing nothing to keep him warm, and hair drenched. all the grease now barely there.

as you silently stepped aside to let him in, he instead reached for your wrist, pulling you closer and out of your house. swiftly tugging you into him, he gifted you a quick, delicate, albeit loving, kiss before pulling away. "i always wanted to do that," you heard him breath out softly.
