A growing problem

*Vibes gulps*

Vibes (thought): Just hope Van doesn't get worse.

*she speeds off to find van, only to see him eat an entire pizza*

*Vibes scowls*

Vibes: Van what the heck?

Van: urp. Uh...a post work out reward?

*Vibes tries to stay calm*

Vibes: You pull that crap again and my post-workout reward will be my boot up your butt!

Van: *flinches* jeez. Sal is rubbing off on you.

* Vibes tries not to cry*

Vibes: Yeah...well you're also lying like she did to me.

*She gives Van a serious look*

Vibes: You've got to decide what's more important.

Van: i...sorry....

*Vibes pauses for a second...then tightly hugs him*

Vibes: Thank you. I don't want to be the serious one.

Van: i know. But its almost impossible to go cold turkey here...

*Vibes sighs*

Vibes: Guess we'd better get you to Anty's.

Van: no no. Ill be fine. He forces a smile

*Vibes looks at him*

Vibes: Are you sure?

Van: yup.

*Vibes grabs him*

Vibes: Hang on.

Van: you su- whoa! *he hangs on, though is significantly heavier than vibes is used to*

*Vibes drops off Van, smiling but red in the face and sweating.*

Van: you ok v?

*Vibes smiles*

Vibes: I...I'll be fine...just need to get my breath back!

Van: ok. *He starts to head inside, before he glows, getting bigger* guh

*Vibes checks her phone*

Vibes (thought): Okay just need to...oh crap, late for patrol...

Vibes: i...im sure he will be fine...right?

*Vibes groans*

Vibes (thought): Can't have Sal have a face on when she sees me, better get a move on.

Vibes: *speeds off, getting a bit of an energy boost as she gets further from van*

*Vibes arrives next to Sal*

Vibes: Hi.

Sal: You're late.

Vibes: I brought you a fruit tea.

Sal: You're forgiven.
