Now that the world isn’t ending, its love that I’m sending to you. It isn’t the love of a hero, and that’s why I fear it won’t do. [/size][/font] And they say that a hero can save us. I’m not gonna stand here and wait. I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles. Watch as we all fly away.. [/size][/font] ---------------------------- Johnny was not having that bad of a day, sure he hadn’t had to be the hero Johnny Storm, the human torch and the ultimate badass of the fantastic 4. Not that he was aiming to be doing more than one thing at once, however at the same time he was glad to be able to have days off because of the fact that even though he was a hero, he wanted to be able to be the Johnny Storm who goofed off and was able to not have to worry about the world around them, not that he wanted to be able to get away with it, however the same time he had wanted to get away from lessons and bunking meetings that he didn’t want to go to, it had been something that he had done over the school term.
That was something he was getting back to today, he was going to visit a friend that he hadn’t been with in a long time, he had been friends with Alison Blaire for about 5 years, possibly longer than that, he couldn’t keep track of how long he had known her, however he hadn’t seen her in a couple of years, simply because of the fact that he had been so busy with other things that he had been doing, mostly to do with the fantastic 4 not that he had much of a problem with it.
Arriving at the school on his motorbike he smirked and got off the bike walking up to the school, he was sure he would find someone that he knew around soon. ---------------------------- Lyrics: Nickelback – Hero Credit: Sammy Tag: None

Alison loved the feeling of being back home at the school. L.A. was nice and all, but there was no other feeling of waking up in your own bed and being in a place where she felt like she could be herself. New York was her home; she was after all born and raised her. All of her friends where here and after the celebrity lifestyle chewed up her and spat her right back out, she was glad to know that she had a place to come home to. Xavier’s would always take her in and once again Alison was back to where she started, an X-Man. The school hadn’t changed much, the faces may have but the school itself didn’t. Every so often she would see an old friend of hers and they would catch up on what had been going on, but from time to time she would find herself wondering what some certain old friends of hers were doing. After a late night of clubbing, Alison woke up, got dressed for the day and decided that she would go out and get something to eat. Maybe try one of those new trendy restaurants that were always opening up in the city. She walked out of the front door, sunglasses over her eyes and bag in hand, but before she got very far from it an old face suddenly pulled her away from her original train of thought. “Oh my God! Johnny!” She shouted at him as she quickly pushed back her sunglasses on top of her head and walked over to him as quickly as possible. “It’s been forever! How have you been?” She said wrapping her arms around him and pulling him into a tight hug. She couldn’t help but wonder which girl here was here to escort to wherever he had in mind. --------------------- Outfit: THIS

At the same time though he knew that he had wanted to come back one to see Ali but at the same time he knew that with the way that the world had gone it would make more sense to make friends with the xmen.
As the door opened he had been unsurprised to be hit by a blonde small missile which attached her hugging him, looking down he was unsurprised to see that it was Alison that was doing so. Wrapping his arms around her he hugged her back just as tightly “hey blondie.” He said “I came to visit you.” ---------------------------- Lyrics: Nickelback – Hero Credit: Sammy Tag: None

It seemed that Johnny hadn’t changed much. Still looked the same, still wore the same jacket and road the same bike, but something had to be different. She felt his arms wrap around her and hug him back and it all felt so familiar. He had held her like this before, but those days were far behind her now. They may not have been together anymore, but they still had their friendship, which was just what Alison needed in her life, a friend. After a moment, Alison finally broke away from the hug and looked up to him. “Visit me? Heard I was back in town?” She asked wondering if the news of her being back had got around. “I was about to go out to lunch, but I can stick around for a few if you wanted to catch up?” Alison said eyeing him over. She assumed that Johnny was doing better from seeing some news coverage of him with the other members of the Fantastic Four. Magazines were also always printing off some stories of news of him dating some model or something like that, but she couldn’t help but wonder if he had heard anything about her, or if he was seeing anyone else now. “You look good Johnny.” She said to him with a slight smile on her face.

When Dazzler asked if he had been told that she was back in town he nodded, it wasn’t the case however he had slipped a tracking device in one of her suitcases when they where still together, not that he was stalking her but he did worry about it, he knew that it was one that she used a lot and then he could tell when she was using it by texting her to ask if she was up to much. Not that it was very legal he had done it because of the fact that he wanted to keep her safe something that he didn’t tell her because of the fact that she was likely to be mad at him for it.
When they had broken up it had been something that had been on the cards for a while, Johnny’s childishness and alcoholism had pushed it but also he had been keeping it from Alison. Something that he shouldn’t have done but had anyway. Therefore even though they had broken up he had kept close to her and made sure that she was ok after all they could still be friends but not have to have sex, it wasn’t against the law for a former couple to be friends.
“If your busy we can catch up later but I could always come with.” He said “it’s been ages since we did something together and you always look good.”

If Alison had found out about the tracking device that he snuck on her stuff, she probably wouldn’t be too happy or think that it was as sweet as Johnny intended it to be. All of her life her father was always trying to control her and monitor what she was doing, so the idea that she had another man in her life that felt he needed to check up on her all the time was something that Alison did not want. She wanted her freedom, she wanted her rights. She wanted someone who would let her leave and trust her enough to know she would come back. It was all of these reasons why she felt that her and Johnny weren’t going to work and maybe she was wrong, he hadn’t really changed much. Then again, that didn’t mean that Johnny was less of a hunk. He still had his messy hair, bad boy smirk, and from what she could tell a body to die for so there was no denying that he was still a fox. Alison really shouldn’t fall back into old patterns. She needed Johnny to be sober and able to stand on his own without feeling that he needed to control her, but just having lunch with him couldn’t hurt right? They were still friends…but damn why did he have to look so good? It was unfair really, but Alison had to be strong, she had to stick to her guns and mean what she said. It really wouldn’t be fair to Johnny in the long run. With a bright smile she spoke “Lunch would be great, are you ready?”

As Alison seemed to be considering lunch Johnny hoped that she would say yes he knew that he had royally ballsed up his relationship with her, the fact that he had hardly been sober suggested that but he had been a kid who had gone from being the average Joe to being Johnny Storm the member of the fantastic four when he was still a kid, it was a given that he was going to make mistakes and ruining his relationship with Alison had been proof of that, he had actually missed a dinner that he had planned for her because he had been drinking, Ben hadn’t been too impressed with the fact his relationship fell apart, the tall rock man had actually told Johnny that he had deserved it to end as he didn’t appreciate Alison.
That was the thing though, Johnny had seen his world slipping through his fingers yet instead of grabbing it he had tightened his hold on the bottle he was drinking, something he shouldn’t have done but at the end of the day he couldn’t have avoided either he wished that he could have done truly, he had just made mistakes. When she asked if he was ready he smiled.
“Born ready blondie.” He said “coming on my bike?”

“You want me to? I can always ride my own.” Alison responded back to him as she walked right past him and over to his bike. Some people would be surprised to hear that Alison Blaire could ride a motorcycle, let alone owned one, but it was the truth. Behind all that blonde hair and make-up was a girl who had other interest beside fashion and becoming a star. That was one thing she felt that Johnny didn’t understand about her, he thought that Alison was just a simple girl who wanted to shop and have fun all the time. It made it harder for her to open up to him and be human. “Scratch that, I don’t feel like changing my shoes.” Alison said climbing on the back of his bike, waiting for him to get over there so they could drive off. It was kind of odd how they got back into their old patterns without missing a beat. There was no awkwardness, nothing new to really report. It was almost as if Alison never left at all and in a way it was comforting to Alison. She knew now that she could always rely on Johnny, he was probably still a cocky super hero with a loud mouth too.

Johnny was surprised at Alison’s reaction he didn’t want to see her ride on her bike he wanted her on his bike behind him, he knew that it was selfish but any chance that he got to have that beautiful blonde pressed against him, not that he blamed himself for wanting so but he just wished that it could have been the case that it was likely to happen, something that he doubted with the current climate of himself and Alison’s past relationship being over and the fact that she had wanted to ride her own bike, something that she hadn’t told him that she had but they had secrets after all. “It is up to you gorgeous.” He said getting on his bike.
However he had been surprised to find that she had been a couple of steps faster and had gotten on his bike before him, it wasn’t something that he had expected but at the same time it wasn’t something he was against either. “Just hold on tight we don’t need you falling off and cracking your head off of the floor.”

Oh how Alison missed those little nicknames that Johnny would give her. At first Alison would just roll her eyes and wish that he’d call her by the name that everyone else called her, but then after a while it sort of grew on her and she began to respond to them. Of course she knew that Johnny probably made a habit of calling all of his girlfriends something similar to it, but still it was nice to hear a name that only someone close to her like Johnny would know. She watched as he got on his bike and commanded her to hold on tightly to him. Of course there was no other way around it and with a light roll of the eyes, Alison wrapped her arms around the lower half of his body and scooted up a little closer to him. “I’d wear a helmet, but helmet hair will never be in.” Alison said with a light laugh as she felt those abs of his. She was glad to see that he kept up on his morning work-out routine and suddenly felt herself place her chin on his shoulder, just like old times. “So we’re going to this place not too far from here. It’s brand new and suppose to great French food. You’ll love it John-John.” Alison knew that Johnny hated going out to all the new little trendy places she found, yet every time she went, he was always right there along with her, dragging his feet.

Now that the world isn’t ending, its love that I’m sending to you. It isn’t the love of a hero, and that’s why I fear it won’t do. [/size][/font] And they say that a hero can save us. I’m not gonna stand here and wait. I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles. Watch as we all fly away.. [/size][/font] ---------------------------- Johnny smiled at the fact that Alison had given up trying to stop the nicknames that he had for her, if he was being honest he had never done it to annoy her, he did mean all of the things that he had called her, whether it be beautiful, sexy or the one time that he had called her princess, he was sure she had drawn the line at that one but at the same time he had seen her as all of those things, he had seen her as far too good for him, that had been why he had inevitably messed things up with her.
When she said that she wasn’t going to wear the helmet he sighed, she was putting her safety behind that of what was in. “Please wear the helmet I like your head still attached and filled with brains. You could always brush your hair when you get there, if you crack your skull you can’t” he said he didn’t want to upset her but he didn’t want to see harm befall her either so he would say what it took to get her to abide by the safety regulations “and does it have to be French I prefer Italian food.” Then he turned on the engine and drove away from the school.” ---------------------------- Lyrics: Nickelback – Hero Credit: Sammy Tag: None

This was a battle that Alison felt she couldn’t win. Johnny was reckless with his own life, yet was always trying to keep the others he cared about safe. It was funny at how much he worried over something that both he and Alison knew how to do. Alison was getting hungry and knew that she had to pick and choose her battles with Johnny. With a heavy sigh she spoke, “Fine. I’ll wear the stupid helmet, but I’m blaming my bad hair on you…” Alison said as she put the helmet on her head and wrapped her arms around Johnny once again. She knew that she would be safe with Johnny, he’s been driving these things for years and the fact that they were both super heroes should have also put his worries to rest. Alison was much tougher than she looked and she was surprised that he didn’t give her more credit. Johnny was always dragging his feet whenever Alison wanted to bring him to a new place. She was into trends, the next hottest thing, and whatever was in at the moment. On the other hand, Johnny wanted something with large portions that would be able to satisfy his hunger. Maybe a nice Italian lunch wouldn’t be so bad. “Italian? Sounds good to me. Wanna go to that one place we always us to go to?” Bringing an old flame to a restaurant that the two had many romantic dinners at? What could be the hurt in that? Alison was in complete control of her emotions, but as they took off and down the street, Alison pulled herself close against him and couldn’t help but think back to how things use to be.

Johnny sighed when Alison put the helmet on he had not wanted to argue with her, he hated arguing with her but at the same time her safety was important to him, more than anything and he hoped that she would appreciate that with the fact that he did love her. He knew that he had thrown it all away with her but he had been trying, slowing and bit by bit to win her back. When she had put the helmet on he couldn’t help but he taken back to the time that he had first taken her out on the bike, she had just like now told him that any helmet hair that she got she would blame him. Of course the fact that they had to swerve to avoid a truck hopefully had made her realise that she wasn’t as safe as in a car and she had pretty much worn it when he had told her to because he wanted her to be safe.
“Please you could have really bad helmet hair and still look like a goddess Als.” He said “don’t let anyone tell you different.” Ok so keeping things as friends didn’t seem to be working for Johnny he had wanted to try and get back with Alison but how he did it was crucial. If he pushed too much then he would lose her, that was something that he didn’t want to do as he cared for her too much to lose her again or to lose her completely. When she mentioned the Italian he couldn’t help but grin. They had gone there a lot, something that one of his friends he had rode his bike with had called his and Ali’s place not that he minded that but now that she wanted to go back there suggested to him that maybe, just maybe she was still interested.
“Sounds good to me.” He said heading off in the direction of the Italian that he knew like the back of his hand. Now he just had to remember that unlike 6 months ago there wouldn’t be 3 bottles of wine and a few beers to go with lunch.
