    Six weeks had past since the last time I saw Johnny. Every other day I would stop in at the diner to see if he was there. He never was. Jeane said he hadn't come in in a while. The last time he did was five weeks ago. She said he ran in talking nonsense and making a mess of things as he worked.
   I decided to go for a walk to clear my head. I seemed to be going for more walks recently. As I walked I saw two familiar figures. As I drew near I realized it was Andy and Mike. I waved at them. I caught Andy's attention. His usual happy face turned sour. He started to walk fast towards me the other guys, he was with following in suit. He raised his fist which I assumed was to punch me. I covered my face with my arms.
  "Andy stop! Wait a moment." I heard Mike's voice. I uncovered my face. Mike was holding Andy's arms. He whispered calming words. Andy turned to me.
  "I'm sorry Moz, I didn't mean it. I just... I just saw you and my mind went to a horrible state." I nodded, trying to get a grip on the situation.
  "Did-did you and Johnny get in a fight? We haven't seen him for awhile. Angie hasn't even seen him. He won't even pick up the phone."
Andy looked as if he would melt into tears. I shook my head.
  "I'm sorry, I haven't seen him ether. I'm not sure what happened. Well I do but this is not what I excepted." I pushed up my glasses. Andy looked confused. So did Mike which I was not surprised about.
"What happened?!" Andy gripped to Mike's jacket sleeve.
  "I want to tell you but, I won't do this to Johnny." Andy clung  to Mike for dear life.
  "Morrissey, please...please tell me." I looked down to the ground.
  "Okay..." my voice felt like it didn't belong to me. "Johnny and I-Johnny and I we... We kissed." I looked to Andy waiting for their reaction. Their faces were filled with shock.
"Really?!" Andy turned to Mike. "Jesus Christ..." he looked to the ground. Do they not believe me?
"Do you know where he might be?!" I said my voice shaking. "Please I have to see him." Mike stepped in.
"If he is any where, he's probably in his flat." I thanked them then raced off.
