John jumped, as soon as Dave began speaking to him. "Oh! Gog, y-you scared me!" He looked Dave up and down, trying to remember who he was. He couldn't recall ever seeing anyone like him, before. And if he did, wouldn't he be able to remember that? He had yet to realize that this cool kid was actually his best friend. "How did you get here?" Inquired he, sitting up in his hospital bed. Who was he? Somewhere inside, he knew he had seen him from somewhere, but he couldn't remember where. Did they go to summer camp when he was little? No. Definately not. But he definately didn't seem like the weird type.

"Don't pull a muscle, Egbert. You're gettin' kind of excited there." Dave smirked. "And Bro drove me over." He raised a brow, his smile slowly fading. "You feeling okay? You hit your head kind of hard there." Dave leaned back in his seat and looked over at John. John looked kind of funny with all that gauze around his head, but the doctors said that they could take it off soon, after he healed up a bit. Nobody wanted John-brains all over the floor.

John took a second to process everything into his mind. He paused and thought of everything that had happened. All he could remember was that he got knocked out at school. Neither Rose, nor Jade had been around to help. "...I-i'm fine, thank you..." He responded, a bit unsure of what was happening. "Ummm...I-i have a few questions to ask. First of all, what day is it?. And sorry to uh...burst your bubble, but...who are you?"

Dave's mouth hung open a little and he furrowed his brows. Did.. Did John really just ask that? Sh*t.. This was the kind of thing he wanted to avoid. He didn't want to be forgotten, it was one of the main reasons he'd moved from Texas. Dave sighed and shook his head. "I'm Dave. Dave Strider. But really, John. Did you seriously forget one of your best bros? I'm hurt." If he didn't have the shades on, Dave would be losing so many cool points he'd have to start wearing sweatshirts and basketball shorts everyday to school. He covered up his upset, hanging open mouth with a smirk and relaxed his posture. There. Now his pokerface was flawless. Mostly.

As soon as Dave started to explain himself, John immediately felt sorry for him. They were best friends? Why would he ever forget his best friend. Honestly, he couldn't really believe Dave's story. He thought it over to himself and it didn't make sense. Him, John Egbert hanging out with a cool looking kid like Dave? It defied the status quo in every way. John's blue eyes showed a mix of sadness and confusion as he responded apologetically,"I-i'm sorry. I just don't remember. If i really was your best friend, don't you think I would remember? But...The pieces just don't seem to fall into place, for me. It just doesn't make any sense."

"That stings, Egbert. Who else would hang around you? We balance each other out like cool yin and derpy yang. " He shifted in his seat and instantly remembered he had brought the remix CD for John to listen to while he got better. He pulled it out of his sylladex and set it on the nightstand by the bed. Dave also took out a CD player, (who knew why he carried it around with him) and set it down by the CD. "There's a song I remixed for you on it along with a little extra I made a little earlier. I'm gonna go get a soda, but I recommend not listening to it now. It's a little loud." He smirked and got up, walking out of the room to the cafeteria. Immediately, his shoulders slumped a little, and his walk became a little more somber as he sghed and thought about the situation.

When Dave walked out of the room, John flopped back down in his bed. What was he going to do? He really felt sorry for Dave, but couldn't see how a cool kid like him would want a dweeby friend like himself. He glanced over at the CD that sat on the nightstand and gingerly picked it up, careful not to scratch it or anything. Closely examining it, he mumbled to himself,"...'Downtime'...?" The name popped into his head. Where had he heard that before? It seemed oddly familiar.

Dave walked over to the empty cafeteria, heading to a single lit up soda machine. It was pretty late, and most of the people were sleeping or working in their offices. Dave took out a five dollar bill from his pocket and got a couple of Dr. Peppers, putting the change back in his pocket and then sitting down at an empty desk. He'd go back to the room in a bit, but right now, he needed some chill out time. John had amnesia, for sure, unless he was playing some grand master prank. Dave took off his shades and put his hands to his face, then he pushed back his hair, letting out a long sigh. Dave put his shades back on and grabbed the sodas, walking back through the empty halls and to John's room.

John rubbed his eyes and stopped. Wait...Something was missing. His vision was awfully blurry. That's right. He was missing his glasses. Looking over at the nightstand, he carefully picked up the shattered mess that used to be his glasses. Shaking his head, he gave hismelf a facepalm and flopped back down onto the bed again. When Dave returned, John realized that his blue eyes were starting to tear up. He looked down at the bed and told him,"...You know...Ummm...Maybe I can try to remember a bit...W-with a bit of help, of course. I wanna remember. I really do. It's just that it seems impossible. I mean, you seem, like the cool type. Why would a cool kid like you wanna hang out with some dweeb like me?"

Dave sat back down in his seat and leaned back, putting a can of soda on John's nightstand. "I dunno, man, I met you on the internet along with Rose and Jade. Honestly, you aren't that much of a derp and it's fun to mess with you about your man crush on Nic Cage and sh*tty movies. It's just good to have a friend like you. Easier than being friends with people who try too hard to be cool." He smirked and yawned, "Oh, and it's Saturday. " He popped open his can of soda and took a few carbonated sips before setting it back down. "Pff, even if you don't remember me, I'll still be your friend. You need someone to make sure you don't get into this kind of sh*t again. "
