Summary
"Fuckin' hell, V, really?" Johnny said both in shock and awe. "Don't tell me you're falling for a cop, fuckin Night City's Finest?"
V stared out into the neon lights of the city from her apartment window, Johnny leaning on the wall beside her. She didn't answer him. Why would she even have to? Even though he couldn't read all her thoughts, they ARE sharing the same brain. He knew how she felt, his question was answered long before he even asked. Her situation is complicated and she knew it wouldn't be fair to drag him into it. There are no happy endings for people like her, not in Night City. The city eats you alive if you don't have what it takes to rise above it but even then there's a reason living legends are few and far between.
Her phone rang cutting through the thick silence that befell her and Johnny.
It was him. She contemplated whether or not she should accept the call or let it ring out.
Johnny lit a cigarette, "All right, fine. Do what you want, but you know what happens to people like us, like me."
"That's the thing, Johnny," She said. "I'm not like you."
