[Chrissy figures this is probably a good time to be seen and not heard. And actually, she prefers not to be seen since those boys are looking at her with interest. They sound like they're still in middle school, so she at least sees them as kids and not threats. She still stays quiet, letting Johnnie handle the conversation this time.]

[One of the boys responds, and giggles as he nudges his friend next to him. That boy is a little taller than the others, and eyes Johnnie and the jacket he's wearing critically.]
You gotta go through the guys at the Roundhouse.
[What the heck is a roundhouse?
Chrissy shifts to stand behind Johnnie as all the boys look over to her.]

[It's hard to tell if they're being honest or if they're joking around at flirting with her right in front of her boyfriend, because they're all giggling and nudging each other again. She bites at her lip to try and ignore the impulse to tell them all to fuck off.]
It's a few blocks that way.
[The smallest of the boys speaks up, pointing back over his shoulder.]
You gotta talk to Dante over at the Roundhouse. But you really don't wanna bring a girl down there.
