FlashBack - Three Years AgoIn Aaron Hayfield's loft apartment, Aaron is sitting at the kitchen countertop, drinking a bottle of cider.
A gentle knock on the door.
Aaron gets up and walks up to the door, opening the door. I'm there.
"Violet?" Aaron said, surprised. "What are you doing here?"
"Can we talk?" I asked him.
"Yeah, sure." Aaron said.
*~*~*
At a small dive bar, Aaron and I are sitting in a booth table across from each other.
"I wanted to apologize for what happened between us. I never meant to hurt you." I tell him, glumly.
"I'm not gonna lie to you and say it didn't hurt, but it's okay, Violet." Aaron replied with a small smile.
Aaron and I exchange small smiles at each other.
shortly afterwards...
Aaron and I are drinking our bottles of cider, sitting at a round table.
"So, what do you do now?" Aaron asked me. "You did say that you were gonna do special agent?"
"Yeah. I am." I tell him. "So, are we gonna be okay?"
"Yeah. We're okay, Vinny." Aaron said with a small smile. "And besides, what are best friends are for."
Aaron and I exchange small smiles at each other.
*~*~*
Now
The Next Morning, at the Crimson Quinn Speakeasy Lounge, Sonya and I are sitting at the round bar counter with our cocktails.
"Cherry is having a party at her house this evening." Sonya said, taking a swig of her cocktail drink. "I'm pretty sure it'll be fun.""Yeah." I said.
"So, where's Scooby Beagle?" Sonya asked me.
I small smile. "Scooby Beagle's at home. And he had the cutest little sad face. He didn't want me to leave."
"Aww. Scooby Beagle is attached to you, Vinny." Sonya said.
"Yeah. I thank Jonny for that." I said.
