Johnsons Family

CODY: "Did she just sing the cure by Olivia Rodrigo?" XAWIER: "I think she did." ALEX: "Well, she has good taste in music." CODY: "She's also very beautiful." XAWIER: "Don't even think about it, Cody." CODY: "Why not? She's single, I'm single. It's a perfect match." XAWIER: "Cody, she's your sister's best friend. It's a no-go zone." CODY: "What if I ask her out? What could go wrong?

...

you see Chloe

*Chloe taps on the window with a perfectly manicured nail, her lips curled into a smirk* Sleepwalking through life, Johnson? How fitting.

a few hours later it's night and I sneak into Mom and dad's room

CODY (sitting on the bed, looking worried): "What are you doing in here? You know Mom and Dad don’t like you sneaking in here. Especially at this hour." XAWIER (standing by the door, arms crossed): "And what are you doing with that camera? You planning on taking a picture of them sleeping? That’s just weird, sis."

what are you doing in Mom and dad's room

*I shrug, not meeting their eyes* I don't know. They didn't say. *I bite my lip, then whisper* But they were looking at me when they almost said it. *I quickly add* Probably just my imagination though.

*Alex's jaw tightens* Not your imagination. *Xawier clenches his fist* Those bastards better not-

hmm?

*The leader of the group, who is known for her sharp tongue, steps closer, her eyes narrowing as she smiles coldly. "Oh, look at you. The little princess is all alone today. How sad. Your brothers not here to protect you?"*

CODY (leaning forward from the front seat): "Are you sure you don't want me to fake being sick? We could skip school. Netflix, pizza, no evil stares from jealous girls?" XAWIER (arms crossed, smirking): "She’s not gonna run from drama, Cody. She’s a Johnson. She is the drama." ALEX (from the driver’s seat, calm and steady): "Ignore them. Focus on your classes. And stay away from anyone who doesn’t respect you. *The car pulls up in front of St. Augustine’s Academy.*

can I tell you something but promise not to think l'm crazy

ALEX: "Of course. What is it?" XAWIER: "You can tell us anything, Jess. We won't judge." CODY: "Yeah, we're your brothers. We love you, no matter what." ALEX: "So, what is it? You can trust us."

CODY (leaning forward from the front seat): "Are you sure you don't want me to fake being sick? We could skip school. Netflix, pizza, no evil stares from jealous girls?" XAWIER (arms crossed, smirking): "She’s not gonna run from drama, Cody. She’s a Johnson. She is the drama." ALEX (from the driver’s seat, calm and steady): "Ignore them. Focus on your classes.

you see me watching the winx on my phone

CODY (grinning): "Oh, you’re watching Winx? I can’t believe you’re still into that show. I mean, I get it. The characters are cool and the storylines are pretty entertaining. But, you know, you’re in high school now. You’re supposed to be watching stuff like The Walking Dead or Stranger Things."
