*Cry-Baby stared down at her intensely.*
"It ain't just you, babe. I feel it too. Ever since I saw you standing there, I knew you was a drape in square clothes. And I knew you'd be my girl."
*He leaned down and kissed her slowly.*
"How 'bout it, Brandi? You my girl?"

*Brandi shivered at the way he said her name. She smiled, her lip tucked between her teeth. She nodded happily.*
"I don't think I could deny you anything, Cry Baby."
*She looked away shyly.*
"I would love to be your girl. True blue."

*Cry-Baby lowered his head so their foreheads touched.*
"It's times like this I wish I weren't an orphan, so ma and pa could see what good I done for myself. You're a hell of a girl, Brandi."

*Brandi smiled up to him tenderly.*
"I'm sure they would be proud of you for lots of reasons."
*Her dimples became more pronounced.*
"Now, if it's all right with you...shut up and kiss me."
*She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down against her.*

*Cry-Baby complied gladly, and offered, with his hands, to do more than that.*
"Oh Brandi," *he muttered against her cheek.* "I don't wanna do anything you'll regret. I might be bad, but I know how to treat a girl."

*Brandi paused, lost somewhere between his lips and his hands. His words finally reached her. She grew more timid and unsure.*
"You don't...have to do anything you don't want to. I don't mean to force you."
*She sucked her lip and averted her eyes.*
"I just like you. And want you. Lots."
*She looked up to him with innocent hope in her eyes.*
"You know what I mean?"

*Cry-Baby caught his breath and licked his lips.*
"You wouldn't be forcin' me, darlin'. I like you lots too. I just never gone all the way before; wouldn't want to unless the girl's special and willin'. And I know you're special."

*Brandi felt her face blush bright red. Why did he make her feel like this? Her lashes fluttered as she tried to find the words.*
"I...I'm willing...but..."
It's Johnny. It's Cry Baby. Don't do this.
"We can wait...if you want. You're worth it."

((Yes, I've decided my Cry-baby is a virgin. Seems to go with the general sense of innocence Waters' films often have; though I don't think he'd agree with me about the sex part. If that makes sense at all.))
*Cry-Baby's hand wandered beneath her sweater, incongruously punctuating his next words.*
"Y'see, Brandi, I... I've never felt this way about anyone. I'd like to take you out proper, show you a nice time, be your date. Buy you a root beer float, maybe take in some drag racing. An' then I'll make you mine, and there won't be no one to say any different."

((That's just fine by me. It makes things more interesting. )) *Brandi wasn't sure how she felt about this. But hey, wasn't the 'verse about trying crazy things? And she did like root beer a lot. Maybe this would be a nice change of pace. She smiled gently and nodded.* "All right. Whenever you're ready." *She stroked his cheek gently. She sucked her lip and lowered her lashes for a moment.* "I don't know if it's too forward of me, and you're certainly welcome to say no. I'll still be your girl, but...I was wondering if you had a place to stay?" *Her eyes darted up to his.* "I mean...it's just I'm in that big inn all by myself, except for a young man name Kurt. It would...I would feel better getting to have you around. In your own room, of course." *She lowered her hand to his chest.* "What do you think?"

*Cry-Baby cast his mind back, trying to figure out where he lived. Astonishingly, he couldn't remember. He suddenly wasn't certain at all what he was doing here. He sucked in a breath at her offer and looked sincerely into her eyes.*
"Brandi, that would be the nicest thing anyone's ever done for this juvenile delinquent. I don't know what I done to deserve such an offer, but I'll try to make it up to you."

*Brandi smiled warmly and kissed him gently.*
"I'm sure you'll come up with something. In the meantime, it'll just be nice to have someone that cares looking after me."
*She sighed softly and shut her eyes.*
"Will you...just lie with me? For a little while?"

*Cry-Baby looked tenderly (but toughly) down at Brandi.*
"You bet I will."
*He was eager for more; would have pressed his advantage, probably, if he hadn't got the feeling that it wasn't a one-time offer. But now he had a place to stow his gear, a girl to write songs about, and a clear sky above him.*

*Brandi snuggled against the thin fabric that covered his chest. He smelled nice. Sighing gently, she rested, not noticing how tired she was. Before too long she was sleeping curled up against him, her breath falling softly against his neck.*

*Cry-Baby lay awake for some time, staring up into the stars. With Brandi asleep, her trusting body cradled against his, he wondered what had happened to him. It wasn't like him, taking up with a good girl--or not so good, if he recalled correctly--and lying out on a picnic blanket. He hadn't threatened a cop or greased his hair all night. Was he going soft?
Nah, he thought as her hair slid against his arm. Havin' a girl's what makes a man a man.
This comforting thought was enough to let him drift into sleep.*
