Baxter Building; NYC; Johnny's room - Saturday night

[fantastic_torch]

Ever since leaving Fandom, and more importantly Savannah, Johnny loved his beer. Like more than usual. He also was kind of moody and cranky and his room was a mess. He didn't allow Sue in. Much.

So when he woke this morning to a scantily clad woman peering down at him, he had to chuckle. Leave it to Sue to hire hot help to kick his ass into shape.

The girl wasn't cleaning, however, she was climbing into bed with him.

"Whoa, wait there..." he said and scrambled to the other side until he slipped off and thudded to the floor.

"But Johnny, I thought you loved me," she teased with a grin, running her finger from her lip to her cleavage.

"Uh. Did I get trashed last night and can't remember what the hell happened?" If so? Shiiiiiiiit.

She shook her head. "No, not at all. But don't you recognize me? I'm your bud."

...

The hours that followed were nearly mind numbing.

Currently he sat on his sofa and watched CNN. His Bud? On the seat next to him, making sure he had a fresh beer in hand.

Johnny was sort of in a chillaxed zoned out state of mind.

"Yes," she replied and handed the phone back to Johnny.

He took a deep breathe. "Hey, babe. I... overracted earlier and I'm sorry."

"It's okay, love," she said quietly. "I can only imagine how you must have felt when Danny called you. But... I would never do anything like that to you, you know that, right?"

"I know," he said, just as quiet. "The thought sent me under, you know?"

He ran his hand back through his hair and sunk to the sofa.

"I miss you so god damn much."

"You should have been here when I woke up with him. There was screaming and anxiety on my part."

The kind that ended up with her on the floor and her body being sore later.

"I miss you, too, sweetheart. So very much."

"You wouldn't have wanted me there with you this morning if he was there. Trust me." Do not doubt the Human Torch. "And it was much the same here this morning. My ass fell out of bed on the floor."

"He didn't hurt me, he just scared the hell out of me." Because he wasn't Johnny. "Fandom weirdness strikes even when you're not in Fandom, then?"
