Johnny felt a little bad he didn't ask Liz to come back, and the way she ran out he wasn't sure if she ever was coming back. Johnny stomped around his house looking for something to do, he was actually getting used to the thought of a friends company.

Still wondering around the house Johnny didn't even notice the bag sitting on the floor. He walked right into it and fell hard onto the ground. What the hell? Johnny said. Looking back to see what had tripped him. What is this Johnny said aloud to no one in particular as he picked up the bag. Who's bag is this, its not one of mine. He said looking into the bag.

He dumped the contents onto the floor and rummaged through it. All the things were unfamiliar to him, a tub of black lipstick, a hairbrush, an agenda, a pack of Marlboro cigarettes, a very old Zippo lighter, a leather wallet, and some tampons. Nope Johnny said this is defiantly not mine. He opened the wallet to look for an ID. Oh he said its Liz's bag! He brought the ID over to the phone and dialed the number.

The phone rang for several minutes and Johnny was about to hang up when he heard a voice on the other end, .hello. The voice said sounding surprised. Hello Johnny said. Is this Liz? He asked. Yes this is she the voice answered, who is this? She demanded. Oh sorry I forgot to say its Johnny. Oh Johnny! She said happily I'm sorry for being so rude and running out on you like that and all and I'm also sorry for the way I answered the phone, it's the first time its rung in 4 months. Oh that's ok Johnny said, you left your bag here earlier. Do you want to stop by and pick it up? Sure she said I was just doing something I should be finished momentarily see you then.

Johnny and Liz sat on his sofa talking and laughing. Why I cant remember the last time I felt so good Johnny thought. So what did she say when you told her she was going to die?! I just love the way people beg for their lives, just like I love the way people get all poetic when they are depressed. Hmm I know what you are saying Johnny agreed. That does rather piss me off, that once your lover leaves you, you're all of a sudden a poet! They both laughed.

They sat up all night laughing and talking. Hey Nny, Liz said I have to get going. I must smell awful and theirs still some business I need to attend to back at my place. But hey wanna go have a brain freezy later or something later? She asked. Um. sure I guess Johnny said as she walked out the door and waved good bye. Damn he said, I need to kill something.
