Johnny's POV

"Hey yo, Johnny!" someone called behind me as I left the bar. I turned around and saw a skinny guy with shiny hair walking towards me. It was David.

I am instantly reminded of the first time I saw David, it was back on Vick's 18th birthday. It was after I found her in her house, kissed her, then when we came out David ran up to her and kissed her too. Me and David were cool, but I never could get the image of the two of them kissing out of my head.

"Hey" I reply coldly. I wasn't in the mood to be warm and fuzzy, ironic, considering my powers.

"We need to talk" David says to me, equally as cold.

I look around us, the Pony Bar was located on the right side of the road, and there was an alley right in front of the building. I angle my head and indicate towards the alley, David got the hint and we walk towards it. I notice that there were people standing on the roof of the building, trying to get a look inside from holes they probably dug into the roof.

"What's up?" I try to act hospitable.

"Cut the bullsh*t" David says harsh, that surprised me. "What are you doing here?"

I give him a look, "I came to my normal bar hangout spot, how was I to know you guys were playing?"

"We both know that's a load" David replies.

"That maybe so, but that's what you're gonna tell Vick" I say sternly.

"I'm not gonna tell Vick anything that has to do with you" he hisses.

"Oh? And why's that?" I challenge, not knowing why my temper was rising.

"Seriously!? Your asking me that question!?" David explodes.

"Just tell me!"

"Tell you what?"

"TELL ME WHAT VICTORIA THINK'S ABOUT ME!"

That shocks David, he and the rest of the alley was silent for a moment. He angles he's head to look at me, looking all dark and menacing.

"Why do you care" he says, indicating to me as if I was the living embodiment of rat poison.

"Believe me, I do not know" I say helplessly.

His expression softens abit at that, he straightens is jacket abit and stands straight in front of me. "You wrecked her, you know?"

I sigh, "I do"

"She was a hot mess for weeks, heck, months!" he continues.

"I figured."

"Her and Sara don't want me to figure it out, but I know Vick's gone back to hammering" David adds.

"Wait, what?" I ask. "What's...hammering? Is it hurtful?"

"Let's just say...it's a bad habit she adopted when she moved into her place" David says, "she stopped it awhile back when she started dating Kevin, but I know she's picked it up again."

So there it was, audio confirmation from her friend that she was dating K-Kevin. When she said it up on stage I assumed she might have done it just to spite me, Lord knows she's fond of doing that on a regular.

"So she and Kevin are really an item. She didn't say that just to get under my skin?" I say to David.

"Oh no, she totally did it to annoy you." David confirms, "But she mostly is dating him, you can say him being around helped her."
