relieved to see the look of happiness on both his and Joanne's faces -- something that had been missing for
what felt like forever.
Actually, in Roy's case, he was more then smiling -- he was...beaming.
"MIke did ya hear? He's alive!" his voice full of excitement..
Mike patted his shoulder, unable to contain his own excitement. "Yes I did. Dixie just told us. Hey listen,
we're on our way over to UCLA right now to see him."
"Thank God. Poor Johnny must think we all deserted him or soemthing." Joanne smiled in relief.
"Yeah. Cap's still over there as far as I know. We'll go over there and stay with him a while."
"Thanks Mike." Roy said, relief washing over him.
"Tell him I'll see him a little later, okay?" Joanne added.
"Sure thing." Mike was anxious to get moving and headed for the door.
"Hey Mike?"
"Yeah, Roy..."
"Hey, when you see him, tell him..." Roy's voice grew quiet and trailed off, unable to appropriately
verbalize the heartfelt sentiment inside. Joanne squeezed his hand in support.
Mike understood completely. Of all of them, Roy would have been the most deeply hurt by Johnny's death
-- Johnny was...family.
Mike's own voice softened as he looked back at his friend.
