Words: 1600 (not really proof read I’m sorryyy)
You brought it on yourself really. You could feel the heat rise in your face with jealousy as you glared over at him, leaning against that stupid juke box flirting with those two stupid girls.
See, you and Johnny had been secretly getting together recently. Between the stolen glances on set, the flirting behind the camera and the drunken nights you ended up in his bed; you were falling for this cowboy Casanova. The way you both would stay up and giggle to one another as you lay by his side, his fingers lazily dragging up and down your side, getting drunk on his all too familiar scent and listening to that gruff chuckle of his. You would look forward to going to set every morning, hoping that maybe you would both steal a quick kiss in a corner somewhere that no one could see you both. And you loved the way you could feel his eyes on you when you were pottering about getting things ready, him undressing you with every move.
The guy sent you butterflies whether you liked it or not. However, tonight you thought you were clever. Steve-o, your best friend, knew about your feelings for Knoxville and never stopped the teasing. Him being ‘the best wing-man’, his words not yours, decided to dare you to get a free drink from a random guy at the bar knowing this would drive his poor friend wild.
After Steve-o dared you, your eyes darted to Johnny, who was staring at you darkly. His eyes piercing into you reading ‘don’t you dare’. His brow low. You stared back. Your eyes gleaming, raising one eyebrow reading ‘watch me’. The liquid confidence guiding you. You stood up, pulling up your jeans and shaking out your hair winking in Johnny’s direction before shaking Steve-o’s hand, “done. And once I win you buy the drinks all night”. Steve-o laughed that all too familiar, scratchy chuckle and shook your hand knowing Knoxville was going to go nuts. “Deal”.
Off you went, flirted with poor Luke at the bar, who eventually bought you a shot and some fruity cocktail. You could feel the burn off Johnny’s eyes on you the whole time. Especially when you felt Luke lay his hand on the lower half of your hip, rubbing circles there. When you returned to the table, the boys all cheering you on, Johnny was nowhere to be seen.
So yeah, it was entirely your fault. It was your own doing. But that wasn’t going to stop you from being pissed at Johnny for flirting with those girls. Your glare moved from Johnny to Steve-o who was laughing at you. It was also his fault you decided.
“aw come on man, you didn’t have to agree to the dare” Steve-o laughs, nudging your shoulder. You rolled your eyes “aw piss off dick”. He laughs again before his attention is dragged away by Pontius handing everyone shots.
You took your shot off the tray and let your eyes trail back over to the dick in the corner by the juke box. You huffed, cursing to yourself as you watched him.
Then one of the girls took off the obnoxious pink cowboy hat she was wearing and placed it on Johnny’s head, brushing her whole body up against him. You could see him laugh, adjusting the hat on his head with one hand as the girls started dragging him on to the dance floor with his other. He then turned his head, looking straight at you. He was gleaming with mischief. His eyes staring straight in yours, his eyebrows raised as he started to sing the song that was playing, being pulled on to the dancefloor.
You rolled your eyes, boiling with anger and jealousy. ‘fuck him’ you murmured to yourself as you downed the shot, then proceeded to get up. Steve- looked up at you as you gathered your jacket and bag. “ay ay wow where you going?” he questioned, his brow furrowed like he was annoyed, pulling on your hand to stay. You glared down at him “home” you replied sternly, pulling your hand bag over your shoulder.
Before you could even move one step you felt someone grab your hand, pulling you towards them. Whipping your head round you see Johnny, pink cowboy hat still on his head, slightly swaying to the music. He pulls your hand up, attempting to twirl you but you’re having none of it and halt yourself from spinning, absolutely fuming at him.
“Where you going baby?” he says in the goddamn sexy southern tawng, still trying to get you to dance, which is infuriating you more. “don’t ‘baby’ me Knoxville” you point back, pulling your hand away from him.
“come dance with me darlin” he offers, taking the hat off his head and putting it on yours, trying to take your bag off your shoulder. You swat him away and place the hat down on the table next to you. As you do, you notice you have a slight audience being made up by the jackass team. You swing back looking at Johhny who is pulling your hands trying to get you on the dance floor but you pull away from him. “go and dance with your new friends” you sass, having to shout slightly over the loud music. He puts both his hands up to his heart and feigns being hurt. You roll your eyes and turn to the table behind you “I’ll see you guys on set, Monday” you smile, shooting Steve-o a ‘I’ll see you tomorrow’ look. You hear them all groan at you leaving but you’re too pissed off to care.
Turning back to Johnny you scowl at him, shaking your head slightly, pushing past him to get to the door. Johnny sighs and downs the rest of his drink before saying a quick goodbye to the Jackasses sat round the table, who all cheer and shout at him to chase after you.
He grabs your hand as you try to leave but he doesn’t pull you back, he follows you to the exit, putting his hand on your lower back, guiding you. You huff, glancing up at him with your brows, scowling. He looks down at you and throws you that shit eating grin before pushing the door open at the exit.
“you can think twice about getting in a taxi with me Knoxville, no chance” you laugh, hailing down a taxi. He’s stuck to your side like glue, no matter how you try and move away from him. “oh come on darlin, my keys are still at your place last night and there ain’t no way I’m letting you ride these taxi’s yourself. Don’t know what kinda creeps are out there”.
You scoff, pushing his chest. “oh I know, I know fine well the creeps out here wearing pink cowboy hats and red check shirts”. The taxi pulls up next to you and Johnny opens the door for you to get in “oh you don’t mean that. You’re just jealous sweetheart, I know you’re into me. And that’s real cute honey”.
You clench your jaw. He’s not wrong, but the smugness is going to earn him a slap once you get out the taxi.
The ride back to yours is silent. Johnny glances over at you every now and then and you can feel him eyeing you up and down, but you continue to look out at the dark of night, hoping that he can’t see you blush under his gaze. You were still mad at him, even though you were hoping he would spend the night at yours.
It's still silent as you walk up the stairs of your apartment complex, but he’s so close to you. You can smell the liquor and cigarettes off him. Its intoxicating. Like a drug.
“You can come in but don’t make yourself comfortable grab your keys and head out” you break the silence, throwing your keys on the counter, he closes the door behind you. You head into the kitchen for a glass of water, and you hear him throw himself down on the couch, sighing.
‘The nerve of this man’, you mumble to yourself as you storm through to him. “I said don’t make yourself at home Johnny, you’re pissing me off”. He throws his head over the back of the couch running his hands over his face “I’m pissing you off?” he snarkily replies. You put a hand in your hip “yeah, you’re pissing me off” you raise your voice more.
He throws his hands up in the air, exasperated “you’re the one that fucken started it!”.
You sigh. He’s right and you know it. You pout slightly. Cheekily replying “so” as your eyes wander up his slightly exposed torso. His head jolts up, an aura of smugness around him. “So?” he repeats. Getting to his feet, sauntering over to you. “so… you get to just make me sit and watch you flirt with other guys.. as I sit and get wound up about you..” he's so close. His raspy, alcohol abused voice seeping right into you. “… and I’ve to do nothing about it?”
His fingers brush your chin, moving your head up to look into him, meeting his bedroom eyes. You swallow. His head moves closer to you, his lips almost touching yours. You tilt your head to meet him but he pulls away.
“but hey..” he shrugs “tu casa ain’t me casa…” he picks up his keys from the table and heads towards the door, brushing his fingers through his hair. “I’ll see you on Monday sweetheart” he winks.
You roll your eyes, admitting defeat. “Where the fuck you going Knoxville?”
This could go one of a few ways from here…
***OK LISTEN… I haven’t finished this because I’m unsure whether or not to go a wee bit smutty on the next part….? If that’s what the people want then please let me know. If not I’ll write another part of this which doesn’t involve any smut.
Repost becuase I fucken love this one and I’m thinking about doing a part 2 (a year fckn later I know - shocking)
Stay tuuuneeedddd
