- Playing Catch (P2) -
I backed away from them, right into Johnny's arms. He held onto me so I couldn't escape.
"No, no!" I cried, as he lifted me into the air. "No no no!"
"Aw come on, Emily, it'll be fun!" Johnny shifted me in his arms so I was like a princess again. "When I say go, let go of me, and Rob will catch you. Ready? Go!"
I didn't move. All the guys were going wild, laughing, jostling each other.
My friends were freaking out.
"Johnny, give her to me!" they were yelling, holding out their arms like I was a baby.
"Come on, Emily, let go!" Johnny urged. "It will be fun!"
"I don't want to let you go!" I blurted, and then blushed. "I-I mean--"
He ignored that comment, but I stared into his eyes, and he stared into mine.
"I'm gonna be late to chorus," I begged, as my friends tried to pull me away from him. "Please, Johnny! Please!"
"You're no fun!" he cried, smiling at me. But he set me down.
"You're crazy!" I yelled to him, smiling back.
Me and my friends ran to chorus.
I was absolutely dazed and thrilled.
Completely breathless.
