“I know but... it was the way she said it.” Johnny said pouting but he squeezed her gently around the belly and waist. “I do... it's refreshing, that I know exactly where we stand.” Johnny said softly, in fact that was true, he still really liked how blunt she could be. What he had a tough time with was when she ran away first, like now, he didn't know exactly what was going on. For a guy who came and went this was scary for him too. “I wish we didn't overwhelm her. Okay Sugar, you talk to Pepper.” Johnny said glad Loki was here to comfort him a little and the kisses were nice too. He shut up then though so Loki could talk to her friend.<br/><br/>“Loki, I'm sorry, did I bother you? Is now an okay time to talk? I just... I finished work and couldn't wait any longer. I broke up with Tony. I just can't handle Steph's attitude and the shit she is always pulling to spite me. The media has been a nightmare every time the team does anything and I'm trying to make the company get back up to where it was before Tony ran it into the ground. Then on top of all that, Tony's nightmares and the suits and I just couldn't handle all of this at the same time anymore. I'm so stressed and tired and worried all the time.” Pepper cried, she was curled up on her couch in her pajamas's at her apartment and it had been a hard day for her to keep it together after calling Tony at Lunchtime.
