We ended up going to the pub I frequented with the boys, to celebrate catching the unsub as well as for me not being taken a second time.
"All I'm saying is. I don't want you guys to meet my cousins."
"Spencer's met Sniper." Penelope told
"I also know his actual name. And honestly I still can't believe that's his actual name."
"Ok 1. He only knows the name cause of the funeral and I made him agree to not snitch. 2. They haven't actually properly met. Zack actually told me he just thought Spencer was a friend to help with the emotions I would have been feeling."
"So why don't you want us to meet your cousins?" Derek asked
"Is this cause of your uncle?"
"No it's not cause of Marine."
"What's wrong with your uncle?" David asked
"He was on the FBI wanted list. It's fine though he's dead now."
"What?!"
"Yeah. He was a criminal."
"We thought only your brother was a criminal." Emily stated.
"Na. I also got a famous ancestor that killed a dude, so it's a thang."
"Can we ask what he did?" J asked
"Which time?"
"All of them?" She questioned making me put my drink down.
"The following crimes include: mail fraud, credit card fraud, grave desecrations, breaking and entering, armed robbery, kidnapping, emotional abuse though that one he wasn't actually charged with. Car theft is on there I think.... what else?"
"And why do you call him Marine?" Aaron asked
"Cause he was apart of the Marines. Duh."
"And he is now a criminal?!" They exclaimed.
"Not anymore. He's dead, and probs in hell. Cheers!" I exclaimed as I raised my shot glass and tossed it over my shoulders.
"River you just wasted a 30 dollar shot." Derek told
"It's fine. Money isn't an issue for me. I got a Grace and Dave."
"We've arrived!" Tim exclaimed as he came over and rested his arm over my shoulder.
"You guys brought Zack?"
"We did. He's got another book."
"Hi."
"We also got the gear." Vix added.
"So we can do the song." Joe stated
"Yay! Enjoy the show guys!" I told before rushing off with them to set up.
Once we were done we were given the thumbs up from the bar owner.
"Hello hello hello. We are Midnight Zombies ft. Rio. We wrote this song and finished it recently. So we hope you enjoy." Tim told before Joe counted us down for the song.
(River, The boys, all of them.)
"My grandpa fought in World War II
He was such a noble dude
I can't even finish school
Missed my mom and left too soon
His dad was a fireman
Who fought fires so violent
I think I bored my therapist
While playing him my violin
(Oh my God) That's so insane
(Oh my God) That's such a shame
Next to them, my shit don't feel so grand
But I can't help myself from feeling bad
I kinda feel like two things can be sad
The world's smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon (That's right, that's right)
I'll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
Just let me play my violin for you, you, you, you
My grandpa fought in World War II
He was such a noble dude
Man, I feel like such a fool
I got so much left to prove
All my friends have vaping friends
They're so good at making friеnds
I'm so scared of caving in
Is that entertaining yеt?
(Oh my God) That's so insane
(Oh my God) That's such a shame
Next to them, my shit don't feel so grand
But I can't help myself from feeling bad
I kinda feel like two things can be sad
The world's smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon (That's right, that's right)
I'll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
Just let me play my violin for you, you, you, you
Somewhere in the universe
Somewhere someone's got it worse
Wish that made it easier
Wish I didn't feel the hurt
The world's smallest violin
Really needs an audience
So if I do not find somebody soon
I'll blow up into smithereens
And spew my tiny symphony
All up and down a city street
While tryna put my mind at ease
Like finishing this melody
This feels like a necessity
So this could be the death of me
Or maybe just a better me
Now come in with the timpanis
And take a shot of Hennessy
I know I'm not there mentally
But you could be the remedy
So let me play my violin for you!"
Once we were done we began to do our usual things at the bar till it was time I had to go.
"I gotta go guys. Things to do." I told the team.
"We've hardly seen you though Kitten."
"I know Penelope. But I will hopefully see you all off."
"Your not coming back with us?" Emily asked making me shake my head.
"I still have shit to do here and I'm still on holidays. So I will see you all tomorrow." I told before giving Spencer a quick kiss on the cheek. "BOYS! LETS ROLL!"
They picked Zack up since they didn't want to keep moving him while he read his book and we headed off to my meeting.
'I'm going to miss them.'
