🎸Johnny As A Drape Above🎸

Meanwhile back at Turkey Point that evening, the Summer Shindig was in full swing. Cry-baby and Allison were singing with the Cry-Baby Combo and everyone was dancing wildly on the dancefloor.

(AN: Song is called Rama Lama Ding Dong by The Edsels)

Pepper, Wanda & Hatchet Face:
Rama Lama Rama Lama Lama Ding Dong!
Rama Lama Rama Lama Lama Ding!

Cry Baby:
Oh, oh, oh
I've got a girl named
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!
She's everything to me,
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!
I never set her free
'Cause she's mine, oh mine!

Allison:
Oh, oh, oh!
I've got a boy named
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!
He's fine to me,
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!
You won't believe
That he's mine, oh mine!

Cry Baby:
I love her, love her, love her so,
And I never, never let her go!
One thing is certain,
She's mine, oh mine!

Pepper, Wanda & Hatchet Face:
She's mine, she's mine!

Allison:
All of the time!
I've got a boy named
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!
He's everything to me,
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!
I never set him free,
'Cause he's mine, oh mine!

Cry Baby:
Rama Lama!

Pepper, Wanda & Hatchet Face:
Ding Dong!

Allison:
Rama Lama!

Pepper, Wanda & Hatchet Face:
Ding-Ding Dong!

Cry Baby:
Oh, I've got a girl named
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!

Allison:
I never let him go,
Rama Lama, Rama Lama Ding Dong!

Cry Baby & Allison:
I won't love an other so
And He/She mine, oh mine!

Blue and Johnny pulled into Turkey Point and somehow when Johnny heard the live music booming from gazebo a few feet away and saw people dancing wildly, he instantly felt at home.

"You alright?" Blue asked him as he got off the motorcycle after her.

"Yeah" Johnny nodded "I think I'm just starting to understand why girls don't usually ride up front on a motorcycle." He picked a few long black hairs off his shirt.

"Are those mine?" Blue asked, slightly embarrassed.

"Yeah..." Johnny replied gently. "But don't worry about it. My hair's so long it probably would've been the same even if we switched spots."

Blue laughed. "So you've never been to Turkey Point?" Blue asked.

"No" Johnny shook his head. "My mom warned me to stay away from here. She said it was too dangerous and reckless of a place."

"You might as well get dangerous and reckless while you're still young" Blue shrugged, smiling.

"You're right" Johnny nodded. "But I'm kinda worried about the impression I'll make on everyone here. I mean, I don't want to stick out like a sore thumb."

"You're a cool guy, Johnny" Blue told him "You just look Square!"

"Thanks... I guess?" Jack chuckled.

"You know what I mean, just stick with me and my gang and follow our lead!" Blue explained "You'll fit in soon, actually Turkey Point is a place made for those who don't fit in. Judgement is one of the only thing that doesn't fly here. I think inside you there's a kid who's cooler than any other guy in Maryland."

"You think so?" Johnny smiled.

"You're a lot cooler than the other guys I know..." Blue told him. "Aside from my Dad."

"Understandable" Johnny nodded.

"Blue, sweetie!" Came a voice "Who's your friend?"

Blue and Johnny turned to see Allison and Cry-Baby walking towards them. Allison had a welcoming smile on her face while Cry-Baby's expression made Johnny want to soak his shorts.

"Oh! Uh, Johnny these are my parents!" Blue smiled. "This is my Ma, Allison Vernon-Willaims and my Dad, Wade Walker, but everyone calls him Cry-Baby."

"Any particular reason?" Johnny asked Cry-Baby.

"I got your reason right here!" Cry-Baby held up his fist.

Allison grabbed his fist as she held his arm. "They call him that because he can cry a single teardrop, it's kind of his trademark" she explained "And the reason I fell for him."

Cry-Baby's face softened a little as Allison kissed his cheek.

"That's nice" Johnny nodded "I wonder what my trademark should be."

Cry-Baby scowled "Keep hanging around with my daughter and it will be suffering an untimely dea--"

"So, Johnny" Allison cut him off. "Blue was a little light on details about you. Tell us about yourself?"

"Well, I moved to Maryland not that long ago" Johnny explained "My parents raised me in a commune called Rainbow Pines and after the government seized our land, we were forced to move. My mom and dad got divorced shortly after and after that was over and done with my mom and I moved down here."

"And how do you like it here in Maryland?" Allison asked.

"Well if I'm being completely honest, there's too many Squares not enough Drapes!" Johnny quipped.

Allison laughed. But Cry-Baby's face remained hardened and unamused.

"You mean there's not enough Drape girls for you to prowl on?" Cry-Baby asked in an angry tone.

"No, sir" Johnny said "I just meant that Drapes seem a lot more fun than Squares."

"Fun to seduce?" Cry-Baby asked.

"Dad!" Blue told him. "Why don't you go help the gang set up for my performance? Right now? Please?"

"Fine" Cry-Baby muttered as he and Allison left.

Johnny watched them go. "Does your Dad hate me?" He asked Blue.

"Don't take it personally" Blue reassured him. "He hates every breathing mammal that could get close to me. He wants me to grow to be one of those chicks who had dinner with her Daddy every Friday night... and Saturday."

"Ooh, he's the overprotective type, huh?" Johnny asked.

"There's the understatement of the century" Blue muttered.

"Any advice as to how I can make peace with him?" Johnny asked. "I mean, you're his daughter?"

"The best advice I can give you? With my Dad?" Blue thought about it. "Try rolling over and playing dead! Y'know just let the Papa bear sniff you and wait till he walks away!"

Johnny laughed. "I just don't want him to see me as a threat" He said "I want him to maybe... eventually learn to like me."

"Well, we all have our hopes and dreams!" Blue shrugged "One day, I'd like to kiss Keith Richards and Paul McCartney on a big pile of money! But I'm not that optimistic about my chances!"

🎸💙🎸

About half an hour later, Cry-Baby and Allison walked out on stage in front of the Turkey Point crowd.

"Hey! How's everyone doing tonight?" Allison said into the mic. The crowd cheered in response. "Now we'd like to introduce to you The Bad Blue Band. Give it up for Conner, Kiki, Susie-Q and Snaredrum!"

The band came out and took their positions with Conner on keyboard, Snaredrum on drums, Susie-Q on bass and Kiki on tambourine.

Cry-Baby then took the mic. "And now we'd like to introduce to you, The girl who puts the punk in spunk! The toughest little teardrop you've ever seen! The sickest chick in lipstick! The little lady who'll always be my baby! Greasers and Gals, my daughter Blue Walker!"

Blue came on stage with Johnny by her side. She wore a black one-piece jumpsuit with her signature blue leather jacket and her old electric telecaster strapped across her chest.

Blue's outfit & guitar:

Johnny joined Allison and Cry-Baby near in the front row as Blue began to sing and the band started playing.

Blue:
I make them good boys go bad,
I make them good boys go,
Good boys go bad!
Good boys go bad!

I know your type (Your type)
You're Mama's little boy!
Just take a bite (One bite)
Let me shake up your world!
'Cause just one night couldn't be so wrong,
I'm going to make you lose control!
He was so shy
'Til I drove him wild...
I make them good boys go bad!
I make them good boys go bad!
You were hanging in the corner with your five best friends!
I knew that I was trouble, but you couldn't resist!
I make them good boys go bad!
I make them good boys go-
Good boys go bad!
Good boys go bad!
Good boys go...

(Blue gestures for Johnny to come up on stage, Johnny hesitantly hopes up to the microphone)

Johnny:
I know your type (Your type)
Girl, you're dangerous,
Yeah, you're that gal (That gal)
I'd be stupid to trust!
But just one night couldn't be so wrong,
You make me want to lose control!

Blue:
He was so shy,
'Til I drove him wild!
I make them good boys go bad!
I make them good boys go bad!

Johnny:
I was hanging in the corner with my five best friends!
I knew that I was trouble, but you couldn't resist!

Blue:
I make them good boys go bad!
I make them good boys go-
Good boys go bad!
Good boys go bad!
Good boys go bad!

Johnny:
Oh, she got a way with the boys in the place,
Treat 'em like they don't stand a chance!

Blue:
And he's got a way with the girls in the back,
Actin' like they too hot to dance!

Johnny:
Yeah, she's got a way with the boys in the place,
Treat 'em like they don't stand a chance!

Blue:
And he's got a way with the girls in the back,
Actin' like they too hot to dance!

Both:
We make them good kids go bad!
We make them good kids go,
Them good kids go bad (Yeah!)

Johnny:
I was hanging in the corner with my five best friends,
I knew that you were trouble, but I couldn't resist!

Both:
We make them good kids go bad!
We make them good kids go...
Good kids go bad!
Good kids go bad!
Good kids go bad!

The crowd cheered for them, Blue and Johnny bowed as they got a standing ovation.

🎸💙🎸

It was after their performance that everyone began to unwind for the night. The couple's began to slow dance on the floor and some of the younger couples were headed to Kissin' Field for heated make out sessions.

Blue and Johnny were having fun so far, they talked all evening and finally Blue made a decision. It was a big step and it was all happening so fast, but she was sure of it.

As Cry-Baby headed backstage to change out of his performing suit, Blue rushed over to her Mother as she talked to her Aunt's Pepper, Wanda and Hatchet-Face.

"Mama, Auntie's..." Blue said in a hushed tone. "I'm gonna take Johnny over to the Kissin' Field! I've thought it through and I love him. I won't go too far, I promise. I just wanna live while I'm young. Please don't tell Daddy!"

Allison looked at her daughter with pride. She saw so much of herself in her daughter, she sounded just like she had when she pleaded with her grandmother to let her go to Turkey Point with Cry-Baby all those years ago.

"Alright, sweetie" Allison kissed her forehead. "You take care of yourself. God, why didn't you tell me you were growing up?" She fanned her eyes so the tears wouldn't ruin her makeup.

Blue Hughes her mother and turned to the other female role models in her life. "Any advice, Auntie's?" She asked them.

"If he makes you do something you don't wanna, give him an extra hard smack for me!" Pepper told her. "And remember if things get hot, make him wear a condom! Trust me on that! If he doesn't wanna wrap it, he can go home and whack it!"

Blue grinned "Sure, Aunt Pep!"

Hatchet-Face put her arm around her. "And don't be afraid to take control of him either!" She told Blue. "Men like that sorta thing more than you think! Rock that pencil-neck virgin boy's world."

"You bet I will, Auntie Hatchet" Blue giggled.

Next Aunt Wanda hugged her and offered her advice. "Remember, if he asks you to take your top off, get the money first!"

"What?" Blue asked.

"Oh, never mind! That's only if he has a camera!" Wanda shook her head. "Just don't take any bullshit from him!"

"Okay! Thanks!" Blue said, walking away. She went over to Johnny and held his hand as the two went over the hill in the direction of Kissin' Field.

"Our little drape dumplin' is all grown up..." Hatchet-Face said, watching them leave.

"Does anyone have a tissue?" Wanda asked as her eyeliner stared to run down her cheeks.

"Right here" Pepper handed her a box of them, as she fought back tears herself.

"Have you girls seen Blue?" Cry-Baby asked, coming out from backstage.

"Uh..." Allison bit her lip and looked to the girls for an excuse.

"She's powdering her nose!" Wanda quickly lied.

"She's washing her hair!" Pepper said at the same time.

"She's helping Timmy get out of a well!" Hatchet-Face said in unison with them.

"She's powering her hair in a well?" Cry-Baby asked in confusion, trying to hear all of their lies at once.

"Honey, why don't you come dance with me?" Allison grabbed his arm and lead him out onto the dancefloor.

Allison loved her husband, but she had to agree with her daughter when she said Cry-Baby was overprotective. Blue deserved a night of happiness, regardless of her father's crazy parental meddling. Allison already trusted Blue to make the right decisions in life, it was time for Cry-Baby to do the same. No matter how hard it is to let go of his baby girl, he had to learn that the harder he held on to her, the more she's going to fight to get away...
