Thank you, for those who have commented thus far. Yes, I know Johnny is a smart ass and the way I present him, is how I would see him. I am in school for the summer (college) to finish my Associates and this fall I am proud to announce that I will be attending the University of Mary Washington. So let me get the general bits of fanfiction writing out the way.

I DO NOT OWN FANTASTIC FOUR OR ITS CHARACTERS. I do own Jessica, Elvis (the limo driver duh!), the hot business blond, and other minor characters that aren't fantastic four. So let us get on with the show!

Kissing Boys in the City

Chapter 3 Meet the Richards and YOUR RELATED TO HIM!? But Isn't He the Perv?

Never mind the large red paint spot on her bedroom floor, nor the surprise visitor she had hours ago. It took another few hours but most of her new apartment was now painted. She sat on the balcony, staring out at the city. It amazed her that you couldn't see the stares because of all the lights but the lights themselves were their own stars. So many colors and city traffic didn't die down. All the windows where open to air out the paint smell. She wouldn't dare leave her front door open anymore after the stunt that perv had pulled earlier. She still couldn't believe he had the nerve to smack her rear with the red paint. It was like he wanted to be caught red handed and literally! She may seem like she is over reacting but from how she was raised, his behavior was a big no-no. Her sister may have enjoyed that but she just couldn't. Call her a prude but that's just not a way to talk to a lady. She could admit however, had they been properly introduced she may have crushed over him. He wasn't bad looking, hell he must have been the hottest piece of male she had ever seen. He had the body that screamed ripped, and looked like it would look good in any designer wear. And he had the most gorgeous pair of blue eyes she had ever seen. Hot or not, she wasn't about to forgive him for the paint incident. Oh no, the fact that she had to wash out red paint out her hair for an hour, also causing her skin to turn red through scrubbing. Nope she wouldn't forgive him. The idiot was more trouble than he was worth in her opinion. The sooner she started work, the less she would see him.

Making her self a cup of tea, she stared at the city. It was far from what her old town looked like. In some ways she missed it back there, but here in the city, anything could happen. She would start work in a few days and she just couldn't wait. She had yet to go site seeing and longed to finally see the famous MTV building and store. That and her secret goal was to see the giant ramen cup. She figured that tomorrow she could take a day in the city to get to know her surroundings, she just had to be back home before 7pm to have dinner with one of her new neighbors.

After the incident with the perv, she was looking like the devil had tossed her in a cement mixer filled with red paint. When she heard the door, she thought it was the perv back to do more damage. And fully prepared to tell him off some more she had marched to her door and was met by the face of a blond woman. All of a sudden she wanted to die. She looked horrible and here was the first non-annoying neighbor to come and see her. She could have died. All she could think about was how this woman was probably thinking she was a slob. Non the less, she was very polite and didn't mention that Jessica was covered in paint. In fact the none of it was mentioned in the convo they held

FLASHBACK

Jessica stared in shock at the blond woman at her front door. Feeling embarrassed, she wanted to close the door and get herself resituated. The blond's smile never faltered as she greeted Jessica.

"Hi, you must be our new neighbor Jessica Summer right? I am Susan Richards and I live in the top apartment with my husband. It is a pleasure to finally meet you." She greeted warmly.

"Nice to meet you Mrs. Richards, I wasn't expecting anyone to stop by or I would have made sure I looked decent, but do come in."

"Just call me Susan or Su, Mrs. Richards is my husband's mother. You look fine! Busy trying to get settled in I see? You'll adjust to New York in no time."

"I hope so, I haven't the slightest clue what my new job will be but I am willing to take on just about anything. Plus, I am always willing to take on a challenge."

"How are you enjoying this place so far? It must be a lot different from where you are from right?"

"Other than, this perv I have had issues with today, everything was ok."

"Perv? You mean Sanders?"

"Is that his name? I was willing to stick with calling him perv! I mean he tells me that all women want him on top of them then he smacks my ass! The nerve of him!"

"Don't worry, he usually finds a new flavor of the week. Once you've been here a while he will leave you alone. Anyways, I came down here to not only meet you but, I wanted to see if you would join me and my family for dinner tomorrow? Please say you will?"

"Oh, umm sure! I would love to."

"That's great! It will be my husband and I, my brother, and two of our friends. Don't feel like you're the odd ball out. Trust me, you won't!"

"Sure, what time should I be there? And would you like me to bring anything? Desert or a dish?"

"NO! Just bring yourself. Its casual so don't feel that you have to be dressy. We shall provide everything. Be there by 7 p.m. alright?"

"Ok Su, that will work with me. It will give me a chance to go shopping for food and other things I didn't get."

"Great! I have to be running but it was a pleasure to meet you."

"It was a pleasure to meet you as well."

END OF FLASHBACK

Settling on the couch, she was feeling a bit tired. Moving was stressful, and dealing with the perv "Sanders" was even more so. Soon she fell asleep wandering what bizarre things could go on tomorrow.

The Next Day

It was around 9 a.m. when Jessica had woken up. Showering quickly and dressing, she took the elevator down to the lobby. So far the morning had been good. No perv and no weird fan girls running after anyone. Asking the lobby receptionist where a grocery store was and arranging for a car to be out waiting as she got groceries, she headed down the street. It wasn't hard to find the place. Grabbing a cart, she started down the first isle which consisted of wine, having a few more months until she could purchase it, she was quick to get out the isle. The second isle had things she could use. Cereals and other breakfast foods. Grabbing a few boxes of random stuff, she rounded the corner.

2 hours and 3 shopping carts later, she waited for the car to arrive. The receptionist had sent a large van to pick up her things. She had opted to walk back to the building, and the driver let her know that her things would be dropped off at her apartment. So here she was now, walking and what did she see? A large poster and the perv happened to on it. It was an underwear ad. 'So he models underwear? Some how I am not surprised. With a body like his, any man would take the job.' As she kept walking, she passed a store that sold posters of all kinds. Seeing one of him, she bought two. One to send to her sister, who would enjoy having it, and one to use for target practice with the dart board she told herself she should get.

It wasn't until after lunch that things started to get interesting. Another neighbor had arrived to say hello and this time it was the hot business blond from the other day. He had introduced himself as Alex. He was quite the charmer too. As it turned out he had been the one to send the flowers, so she was feeling a lot better knowing that she kept them. Excusing her self to the rest room, she came back to find Alex adjusting an image that was hanging on the wall. His excuse was that he had a bit of a compulsive order when it came to leveling due to his father during his childhood and Jessica just nodded it off. Alex had stayed and flirted a bit, before excusing himself that he had a business meeting tonight. It was about 6pm and knew she should get ready for dinner. Never one to be late. She quickly showered and grabbed a nice pair of jeans and a simple red button up short sleeved blouse. Quickly pulling her hair up into a simple pony tail she hoped Su's version of comfort was the same as hers or she was just going to have to march back home and change. At 6:55 she made her way up the final four floors to the home of the Richards. She was feeling a bit nervous. She knocked on the door and thrown off when she saw the perv open the door, sporting a large grin.

Johnny's POV

After the paint incident, Johnny had retreated back to his apartment. Lucky for him he had his own floor so Su wouldn't see him. No doubt she would pay the new girl a visit. The only bad part about having powers, especially his, was that the paint dried quicker than it normally would have. He managed to shower it all off, and he had headed out for the night.

The next day, seemed so boring. No one needed to be saved, which was good, but it was making him antsy. Going up to see Su, he was going to skip out on dinner in favor of clubbing until he found out that the new girl was coming over for dinner. He also manage to find out her name was Jessica. Now that he had a name for the violent person who wanted nothing to do with him, he quickly decided he would stick around. It was 6:55 when someone knocked on the door. Rushing to answer it despite that Su told him he wasn't too, when he opened he could clearly see that she hadn't expected him to be there, but the look quickly changed to anger when she all of a sudden blurted out:

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"

The grin on his face wasn't going anywhere. Su stood in shock as well. The load shout caused Ben and Alicia to turn their heads in their direction and Reed to come out of his lab. Getting ready to reply smart assy, Su looked to Jessica and asked, "You've met my brother?"

"YOUR RELATED TO HIM?!"

Su had muttered under her breath a 'sadly yes'.

Furiously Jessica glared at him. "I can't believe your related to at perv!"

"I am not a perv!" Johnny shouted back at her.

"Like hell you aint! Smacking my ass with red paint and telling me women want you on top of them isn't perverted?"

Su finally manage to but in, "Wait, he did that?"

"Yes, isn't he Sanders?"

"No, his name is Johnny, Sanders is another blond that lives in the apartment just above yours, Johnny lives two apartments up from yours?"

"Wait, did you say that Sanders is a blond?"

"Yes, why?"

"His first name wouldn't happen to be Alex would it?"

Johnny looked to Jessica. Something was nagging at his head. Something he should remember about Sanders. When it finally did click he quickly asked her, "Did he come by your place and did you let him in?"

Staring back at Johnny confused, she nodded her head. When Johnny grabbed her arm and proceeded to drag her to the elevator she was putting up one hell of a resistance. She had managed to hit him a few good times by the time they reached her floor. When they go to her door he had turned to her.

"Open your door."

"Now you just wait one fucking minute asshole. Why the hell should I listen to you? You drag me all the way here and now your commanding me you have some nerve!"

"Just DO IT PLEASE!"

It must have been the way he said it because, Jessica opened the door, a bit surprised. Once the door was opened he scanned the apartment. She had furniture placed around since last night.

"Did he touch anything? Did you leave him alone even for a minute?"

"Uh, I went to use the restroom, when I came out he was straightening a picture why?"

Seeing that there was only the one picture he went up to it and began to scan it. It was small but he did find what he suspected. A small camera had been placed. And knowing Sanders, he was probably trying to catch her in the buff. Plucking it off and showing everyone who had now come down to see what the issue was, everyone was staring at him for an explanation.

"When we first moved up here, Sanders had this thing for Su. I caught him placing a camera in the bathroom and in other places. I got rid of them and didn't bother to tell anyone."

He turned to see Jessica staring with wide eyes and an expression of shocked. That was quick to change into anger. He watched as she stalked out of her apartment. He had a clue to where she was going and was quick to follow behind. He watch her hit the button to the floor above. He watched her go over to Sanders apartment door. What he didn't expect was her to not only kick an unexpecting Sanders in the groin, but to punch him as well. Snickering at the man's misfortune. He notice the elevator open again, everyone minus Ben and Alicia was waiting and seeing Sanders on the ground, it didn't take a genius to figure out what happened. Soon they were back up to Su and Reed's apartment.

I am going to leave it here for now. I have class in a minute and figure here is a good place to end the chapter. I wonder if this new development will change Jessica's view of Johnny or will he be classed with Sanders the camera Peeping tom! Stay tuned and review.
