"Dave... we need to talk..."

Dave looked at John, he wasn't looking at him, but he could see that Johns face was plagued by sadness, he could tell that whatever it was he was trying to say he really didn't want to say.

Dave wasn't sure what John wanted, it couldn't be that John wanted to end things... could it? Sure, they hadn't talked in a while, but that was just 'cause their adventures through the medium had gotten pretty crazy and Dave had been off saving everyone and awakening to his time powers... Still, just 'cause they hadn't been talking, surely that wasn't reason for John to...

"What about John?" Dave answered without thinking, emotionless as always. It had gotten to the point where he didn't even think about what to say anymore, he just said things. He knew he could hurt people with his words, but he never stopped himself. After all, Bro had always been emotionless and Bro was so much better than him, so much better at everything...

"You- You see Dave, I've been meaning to talk to you for a while... You haven't been talking to me or responding to my messages so I had to be sure to see you in person when I said this" The entire time John said this he didn't look at Dave, which only made the feeling of unease inside him grow larger.

"Said what John?"

Dave could feel his face move with the words but he was barely conscious of them. For once he was fighting to keep the look on his face neutral, which was unnatural for him, as thanks to Bro's training all his life, Dave had gotten used to not showing any emotion without even thinking about it, yet now he was having to fight to keep his neutral face.

"I think... we should break up." No John, don't say that!

"Sure, whatever."

No Me, don't say that!NO you fucking put up a fight you fucking pathetic fuck, you fucking apologize and you fucking tell him how you feel you fucking asshole. Don't be scared, Bro would say you are pathetic for not doing anything!

"are you sure... you're okay with it?" Of course I'm not.

"Of course Bro, I ain't exactly been acting like I'm close to you for a while, can't say i don't deserve this or that i didn't see this coming."

Dave wanted to curl up into a ball and cry but he had long since lost all control of his emotions, he wasn't even having to try to look emotionless anymore, his body had taken over now, he felt more like he was just watching this break up unfold rather than being a part of it. But he knew he was a part of it, the pain in his chest was a sign of that.

"Okay... thanks for being so cool with it...2

"Don't worry about it"

"Can we still be friends?"

"Sure, Bro."

"Cool" John smiled sadly at Dave.

John walked off, Dave's instincts returned control to Dave's mind. Dave could do nothing but sit down and cry. Yeah, how fucking ironic of you.
