reblogged your post “Clues that Ransom and Holster have collected on Bitty’s secret boyfriend”#OKMGFK #okay but i have a few aus in mind where Bitty actually dates Johnson for a short time first year?? #omgcp #im fucking DEAD tho
“You… you really want to?”
“Oh yeah. I don’t think you and me are some forever thing, but you’re gonna appreciate having some experience under your belt later in your story arc.”
Things Jack Zimmermann has had to tolerate under his very own roof:
- Bad enough: Coming back to the Haus with Shitty and Johnson and it’s filled with the aroma of baked goods, and that new freshman, who doesn’t even live there, is taking cookies out of the oven and turns around to say, “Hey there! I’ve got cherry pie that’s just cool enough to eat, you all want some?”
- Worse: Johnson winking and saying, “You know, what I really like are those buns you’ve got there,” and Eric Bittle B L U S H I N G
- Newly-discovered circle of hell: Bitty and Johnson grinding while they dance in the living room
- Just kill him. Just kill him now: Hearing sex noises from across the hall, a distinctive tenor voice groaning, “Oh, god,” and then Bitty laughing, giggles turning into a loud and helpless peal of laughter that’s only cut off by a yelp that turns into a moan. (Jack gives up and flees for the dubious safety of Shitty’s room, where Shits supplies him with earplugs and lifts the blanket for Jack to crawl under.)
#I…… #I LIKE THIS…….. #MORE PLEASE
#specifically more johnson and bitty banging and jack hearing it all night long
and it’s driving him nuts
#and the morning after with bitty in johnson’s big floppy t shirts making them
all breakfast
#jack nearly bends his spoon with his thumb when johnson comes downstairs
shirtless and leans in to kiss bitty
#like johnson is REALLY GETTING IN THERE and handsy with bitty’s ass
#bitty sitting on johnson’s shoulders at spring c
#jack internally screaming like THOSE THIGHS SHOULD BE ON ME I’D LOVE TO DIE
WITH BITTY’S LEGS AROUND MY HEAD
#and then he’s like wait what did i just think
#bitty with gigantic hickeys and bites on his shoulders and inner thighs and
when they change jack gets tunnel vision
#okay im trash i basically just want jack in the hallway to hear johnson’s
muffled voice saying
#‘eric lift your hips up…come on baby you look so good right now’
#and bitty whining and jack is getting IMAGERY AND A BONER #oh boy the
tags got out of hand (by @nomorelonelydays)Okay, but like Johnson actually falls for Bitty though, even though he knows it’s not how the story is supposed to end. How could he not? Bitty is kind, warm, and laughs at Johnson’s jokes even though he doesn’t always get the context for them.
For once, Johnson wishes he doesn’t know the outcome of this. He wishes he could be selfish for once, and be the hero of this story. It’s hard, but he knows his time is running out. Once he graduates, he’ll be gone, and not even gone somewhere, but he’ll just stop existing until he’s needed again for the narrative.
It’s a terrifying thought.
So, he holds Bitty at night, knowing that in less than a year, this will be Bitty’s room. He even knows the exact spot Bitty’s Beyonce poster will hang.
He also knows Jack is just across the hall with his face shoved into his pillow and his teeth clenched tight because Jack is already in love with Bitty. Jack just doesn’t know it yet.
So, when the time comes, Johnson lets go.
Because he has to.
Because it’s not meant to be.
Because Bitty will be happy with Jack, and the frowns and lines on Jack’s face will soften when Bitty is around.
They are the great love story that everyone has come to see.
And Johnson? Well, Johnson will be around too, and maybe, one day, he’ll have a story of his own.
Okay but now we also need to talk about how Bitty feels about
Johnson. Because if they’re sleeping together for months, or even over a
year, it is unlikely that he’ll stay emotionally unattachedIt’s…confusing
though, because there are times when Bitty looks into Johnson’s eyes
and sees something fiery, passionate, in there, but other days Johnson
seems to completely pull himself away from Bitty, like he doesn’t want
to be emotionally attached to Bitty, like he doesn’t want to fall for
him, have an actual relationship, whateverBitty asks him
about that, once, and Johnson replies: “I am just not looking for
anything serious right now” and the message seems clear so Bitty is very
confused as to why he sees pain in Johnson’s eyes despite itwhen
Johnson graduates, Bitty asks him, carefully, “Will I see you again?”
and Johnson says “I’m afraid your storyline doesn’t need it” and that
baffles Bitty so he says “you don’t think i get to decide on that?” and
johnson shrugs and gestures at jack who is looking at them with the most
constipated look and says, “be good for him” and leaveshe doesn’t respond to bitty’s texts
he doesn’t call
and it takes Bitty months to even start to process how jack acts around him and deal with that because he is actually heartbroken, too
@gadelingsofthegalaxy help me
okay but like. Johnson came back for senior graduation when jack and shitty graduated. he knew that bitty had moved on at that point and was planning on CONFESSSING THAT VERY AFTERNOON. help me im an emotional mess
HE WANTED TO BE SURE HIS SACRIFICE WAS WORTH IT
Thank you all for making me cry about John Johnson and his beautiful, self sacrificing soul.
My poor, mostly gay little heart!
What if when Johnson comes back for a visit/to reassure and torture himself a little, he meets Tango, who, like him, Knows Things. He asks a lot of questions, sure, but he’s <i>leading the conversation</i>.
So Tango asks him something like, “Have you ever been to that little karaoke bar off Lake Street? How do you feel about the song “Wonderwall”? Do you sing much? Are you free tonight at 7.45, exactly?“ And Johnson just has a feeling that he’s finally getting a starring role in the storyline.
So he shows up a little early, and scopes out the crowd, and signs up to sing “Wonderwall”, and then at 7.43, the deejay says “Folks, we had two of you sign up for that Oasis track, how about a duet? Come on up guys!” So he makes his way to the booth and finds a slightly shorter man, with grey eyes, and a strong looking back, and a honey blonde undercut. He doesn’t look like Bitty, exactly, but his smile and his bearing exude the same warm and kind vibe, and when he offers his hand and says “Hey, I’m Aaron,” his voice is lightly accented in a pleasantly familiar way that makes Johnson shiver.
As they sing, voices melding harmoniously and sharing shy, hopeful smiles, Johnson notices the table of SMH boys, and Tango and Bitty especially, looking at him. Bitty is wistful and fond, Tango looks pleased, and Johnson feels both like a soft embrace.
‘This is it,’ he thinks. ‘This is where my story really starts.’

(Also I read this and had to get up and walk away and breath because it’s unfair to have this many feelings about a metaphysical goalie)
