JOHNNY’S POV:

“It’s snowing!” Brian yelled and came over and jumped on Shannon’s bed.

I know what you’re thinking, snowing in California? It happens once in a great while but not enough to cover the ground, just a light flurry then it will be gone in a few hours. So I can see where their excitement is coming from.

“Get your snow pants on Johnny and come outside to play.” Jimmy said and pulled me up from the bed.

“There’s not enough snow to play Jimmy.” I said as I was trying to pull my arm back.

“Yes there is, come on.” Brian got up and helped push me out of the room and down the hallway. Shannon followed behind us.

“Shannon come outside and play.” Jimmy yelled as he dragged me down the hall.

“You guys go on. I’m gonna make some Christmas cookies.” She told them.

“We get cookies?” Brian asked.

“Yes you get cookies.” She said with a laugh and went in the kitchen.

“Can you let me go already?” I asked

“No, cause you’re coming outside with us.” Brian told me.

“Ok but I can walk myself! You don’t have to drag me for crying out loud.” They let go of me and walked towards the front door. Zacky and Matt were already waiting for them.

“Go on out, just let me get my coat and shoes on.” I told them.

“You have 3 minutes and if you’re not out there I’m dragging you out by your ear and pushing you in the pool short shit.” Brian told me.

“Yeah we’ll see about that one.” I said.

SHANNON’S POV:

I started making Christmas cookies for the guys and I couldn’t stop smiling. The ring Johnny gave me was gorgeous, by far my favorite present that I’ve got… besides the room of course. It was white gold with a red ruby for the heart and little white diamonds on top of the crown. I felt two arms wrap around my waist, pulling me from my thoughts.

“Hey babe.” Johnny said.

“Hey, I thought you were going outside with the guys.” I asked him.

“I am. I just wanted to see you first.” He said and placed a light kiss on my neck. I tilted my head for him to do it more. He wrapped his arms tighter around me and brought me closer to him. He kissed my neck more and slowly slid his hands up the front of my shirt and placed his hands on my stomach. I reached back and rubbed his head with one hand as I placed my other hand on top of his hands under my shirt.

“That feels so good.” I told him with a sigh.

“Oh really?” He asked. “How about this?” He nibbled on my earlobe a little, I leaned back against him as he kissed his way back to my neck again.

“Yeah I like that one!” I said as I slid his hands further up my shirt and placed them on my breasts. I could feel his lips against my neck pull into a smile.

I have to admit, I was nervous about being with Johnny, we have been best friends for so long. But there’s something about this that felt so good, so right. It felt right being in his arms.

“I don’t want you to go, but you should before one of the guys comes in and wonders where you are.” I told him.

“Do I have to?” He asked then moved onto the other side of my neck.

“Mmmm, as much as I’m really enjoying this, you should hun.” I said and turned around so I was facing him.

I put my arms around his neck and my forehead against his. He held me close to him and I have to admit, I didn’t want him to go, I didn’t want him to let go of me.

“So later?” He asked.

“What about later?” I asked him.

“You and me alone?” He said with a smile.

“Of course. My room does have a lock on it, unlike any of the rest of the rooms here.” I said with a smirk. “That way no one can barge in.”

“Sounds like a plan.” He said smiling back.

“JOHNNY…” We heard Brain yell from outside. “GET OUT HERE NOW OR I’M COMING IN AND THROWING YOU IN THE POOL!”

“You better go unless.” I told him and moved my arms.

“Ohhh man.” He said. I kissed him lightly on the corner of his lips, in a teasing way.

“Now go before I burn these cookies.” I said and bent down to get the cookies out of the oven. He lightly slapped my ass then turned and walked outside.

It’s funny seeing him like this now. A few days ago he was hitting on me, and then ignoring me, now we’re officially together. Now don’t get me wrong or anything, I’m happy being with him now. But I can’t help to think that what if he told me sooner? What if he told me that he liked me when we were 13? It could have saved me from going through the hell that I went through with my ex.

I finished making the cookies and the guys were still outside goofing around so I decided to put the turkey in the oven and start on the rest of dinner for tonight. We’d be driving around later to look at all the Christmas lights, something that I had to convince them to do.
When I got everything in the over and the timer set I went to my room to lye down. I must have fallen asleep because the next thing I know I was woken up my Johnny brushing my hair from my face. I open my eyes and looked at him and he smiled.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you up.” He told me and lightly kissed me.

“It’s ok. What time is it?” I asked turning towards him and rubbing my eyes.

“6:00.” He told me.

“I’ve been asleep for an hour and a half? Shit… the food.” I said and sat up quick.

“It’s ok. We checked on everything and it’s looking good. Should be done soon.” He told me and pulled me back so I was lying down again, I laughed.

“How long have you been in here?” I asked.

“Just a couple minutes.” He told me.

“I need to get up.” I said and started to climb over him.

“Oh no you don’t.” He said and pulled me on top of him. “You’re staying right here for a while!”

“What makes you think I want to?” I asked looking down at him and smiling a bit.

“Because you love me.” He said and stuck out his bottom lip in a pouting way. I smiled and bit his bottom lip lightly and he let out a light moan which made me smile more.

“Mmm, my work is done here.” I said and got off of him and stood up.

“God you’re just as bad as the guys, always stopping me when I’m about to get some.” He laughed. I laughed and flipped him off.

“I don’t want you to go out there yet.” He said and laid back again and put his arms behind his head. “Come on, come back over here, you know you want to.”

“Oh fine.” I said and went back over to the bed. I climbed on top of him and straddled his legs.

“Much better.” He said. I grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him up to me. He gave me a smile as I did it.

“Is this what you wanted?” I asked him and wrapped by legs around him and brought him closer to me.

“Exactly what I wanted.” He said and wrapped his arms around my waist.

“Good.” I said.

“You seem happier now.” I told him.

“What do you mean?” He asked.

“Now that you’re with me I mean.” I said.

“I am. I’ve wanted this for 14 years now.” He told me.

“That’s a long time to want someone.” I told him and wrapped my arms around his neck.

“Yeah… but it was worth the wait because now I have you.” He said with a smile.

I wanted to tell him I was happy too, and I was of course. But I fought back the urge to tell him how I thought he should have told me sooner, we could have been together all this time. But I had to go and move to New York, date an asshole and fuck up my life.

JOHNNY’S POV:

I was surprised that the guys haven’t interrupted yet. This was the most alone time that I’ve spent with her since she moved back.

“So, what are you thinking about?” I asked her and moved my hands up the back of her shirt.

“Nothing much.” She said with a smile. “Just what it would be like to do this.”

She pulled me closer to her and crashed her lips into mine. I tangled my fingers through her hair and kept one hand under her shirt rubbing her back. She parted her lips and kissed me deeper, darting her tongue inside my mouth. I started to kiss her rougher causing her to moan a bit as I did it. I wanted her, in more ways than this. I wanted to know how every bit of her tasted, what it felt like to be inside of her, to hear her moan and scream my name out in pleasure. I removed my lips from hers and kissed a trail from her jaw down the front of her throat.

“Johnny.” She said with a little moan. I stopped and looked at her, she was biting down on her bottom lip.

“Ok, why’d you stop? I was enjoying that!” She told me with a laugh.

“Gotta save some for later.” I said with a smirk.

“Ohh there’s more?” She asked.

“Lots more. I have some tricks up my sleeve, so just you wait and see. You think you were enjoying that… you haven’t seen anything yet.” I told her and lightly kissed her lips.

“I see how it is, you get me all hot and bothered and then you had to stop leaving me wanting more.” She said as she got up.

She took her shirt off and searched for another one through her bag of clothes on the floor. I couldn’t help but watch her.

“Ok, now you’re being a tease!” I told her. She looked up at me and smiled.

“Why? Because I have my tits hanging out? Is it turning you on or something?” She asked with a smile.

“Maybe.” I said with a smirk.

“Hmmm..” She said and stood up. She grabbed her boobs and shook them a bit. “I’m thinking about getting breast implants… but I don’t know.” What do you think?” She asked and looked at me. “I mean, yeah there good now but they could be better.” She pulled her bra down a bit but not showing off anything.

“Don’t you dare!” I told her.

“Really? You wouldn’t want me to have bigger boobs?” She asked and giggled her boobs again.

“Leave them how they are. There perfect and I only need a mouth… I mean a hand full and you have more than enough for me.”

“A mouth full huh? Yeah, we’ll see.” She said and put on another shirt.

It took everything in me not to stop her. To just pull her on the bed, climb on top of her and just pleasure her in every way possible. I bit down on my lip as she removed her pants. Once again just watching.

“I think you’re starting to drool there babe.” She told me.

“Sorry, that’s what you do to me.” I told her.

“Looks like that’s not the only thing I do to you.” She said looking down to the crotch of my pants.

“Shut up and get over here.” I told her as I stood up and pulled her back over to the bed.

“Nope, we have to go eat.” She told me as she stood at the side of the bed with her hands on her hips.

“I could just stay in here and eat if you’d stay here with me.” I said and sat on the edge of the bed so she was standing between my legs.

“Get your mind out of the gutter.” She said and lightly pushed me. I put my hands on her side and lifted her shirt a bit and lightly kissed her stomach a few times.

“You’re telling me you wouldn’t want me to?” I asked and pulled her closer to me, putting my hands against her ass this time and kissing her stomach more.

“Mmmm, I’m not saying that at all.” She told me and rubbed the back of my head.

“I don’t think you do.” I gave her a smirk and playfully bit her lower stomach. She let out a moan as I did it.

“Come on baby, we have to stop. They guys are gonna start wondering where we are” She stated.

“Do we have to?” I asked and looked up at her.

“Yes! We’ll be alone later, I promise you that. No interruptions or anything.” She said and backed away from me and pulled on a pair of pants.

“Good, I’ll hold you to that.” I told her and stood up.

She finished dressing and fixed her hair in the mirror making sure there wasn’t any sign of fooling around… messy hair and all. I’d have to wait till later to be alone with her again. These hours where going to drive me insane, I just know it.
