Since bringing Savannah back from the clinic, Johnny had kept close but not too close as to be overwhelming. He didn't like what was going on but with nothing else to do at the moment, her comfort and care was extremely important.

He roused slowly and reached an arm over, across her, letting her know he hadn't gone anywhere during the night.


[For Savannah pls, and SP is love.]

The confusion hadn't suddenly cleared up during the night, but she was glad to have Johnny with her. The others had said he was her boyfriend, and she certainly felt something when she was with him. When she felt his arm go over her, she let out a breath, and then moved a tentative hand up to hold onto him.

He was careful, not to push too much.

"How are you feeling this morning?" he asked, his voice low.

"Confused," she admitted softly. "And... guilty."

"Hey, no guilt here," he said. "This is going to get worked out, alright? Trust me."

She turned to him and her eyes had tears in them.

"I can't help it. It feels so nice and right being with you... but I can't remember and I should because I don't like that it hurts you."

Well, the fact that she worried about other people's feelings first certainly hadn't changed.

No, it hadn't. That and the tears in her eyes had him reaching to touch her cheek, but he moved slowly because he didn't want to startle her, or frighten her.

"We've been through a lot; we can get through this. There are a lot of people who love and care about you, sweetheart." He wasn't going to tell her that it didn't hurt, because it did.

Good thing he didn't because she would have known he was lying.

A tear slid down her cheek as she carefully leaned into his hand.

"I don't know who I am or where I am or anything," she said softly, trying to stop her voice from shaking. "And... it scares me."

"I know," he whispered, brushing at her tear with his thumb. "That's what I'm here for, baby. Let me take that worry and make it right, okay? We'll get through this, Savannah. Now," he said, pausing enough to smile a bit, "are you hungry? Can I get you breakfast?"

She gave him a sad smile. "Food would probably be good." Her forehead wrinkled. "What do we usually do on Wednesdays?"

"It won't take me a few minutes to head down to the common room and grab something," he said. Then he managed to look a little sheepish. "I usually work and I have a class today."

"You shouldn't let me keep you from your routine." There wasn't a lot of conviction in that phrase. The idea of being alone when she couldn't remember anything really scared her. "Do I... do I have class or anything today?"

Not that she was risking going to class.

"You do, actually, with me," he told her. "Heroing."

He smiled.

"I need to at least show up for work, set things up, but you can come with me if you're up for it?"

"I'm a hero?" She smiled back at him. "I'd like that. I'm not... I mean..." She sighed, looking down.

"You're a beautiful hero, sweetheart. My hero," he told her, reaching out to gently lift her chin.

"Let's get dressed and head into town. We can eat there."
