╰┈➤ ❝I bet she could never make you cry

'Cause the scars on your heart are still mine

Tell me that she couldn't get this deep,

Tell me 'bout your picture-perfect love
Tell me how you think without the drugs

Maybe you just need to send for me❞

════════════════════════════════════

Thanksgiving is coming up, the school gave everyone the holiday break and (Y/n)'s report card came in. He aced the tests, top student overall and he's glad. He was worried about the math test, but it seems like he was able to slip by with an overall high grade that didn't affect the other tests. 

He's leaving a late meeting with Katherine, he's getting used to the numbers, where they work, how they do their dealings. Their gang doesn't have an official name, but their uniforms consist of purple accents for the older generation and indigo toned accents for the generation he's meant to lead. There are countless father son duos in the gang, Fuvlio is son to the big man in charge of arms and drug dealings. 

The thing that makes (Y/n) hesitate on getting too close is the fact that they're all loyal to Katherine, they praise her, call her the reason as to their change, how she is the reason that they're still able to live calmly. It's suspicious, Katherine doesn't give off any of the traits they describe her with, she isn't generous, honest nor hardworking. Even Fuvlio and Basilio believe she is the prime example, it raises many red flags in (Y/n)'s head. Nobody brings up the past events with how she black mailed (Y/n) into joining, and (Y/n) can see it in her eyes, she's planning something for her men, when they thank her there's a spark behind her gaze as she brushes them off.

She's going to use them for something. . . Canon meat, (Y/n) isn't sure yet. She seems to have not picked up on him yet, or she has and wants him to watch how she subtly treats all of them. What did she say before? "She wants to change for her woman"? Well, her woman seems to be the only one who loves her, Katherine doesn't even bat an eyelash in her direction when she's close. The poor woman is blinded, she's calm and so content with her lover that Katherine slips by when she lets hands wonder on another for longer than what would be considered normal. 

They're being fooled, used, drained and (Y/n) is starting to see their true colors. 

Katherine doesn't want to change, she just says that because her men have matured, they've come to realization that they need to grow and lose their old habits. He sees how she fights back a sneer whenever their head tells them how they've been able to help with their brothels, paying their welfares, it makes all the men glad as the women and men working under their rule aren't being forced, that their situation is alright after getting first hand of how basic necessities can be ignored with such ease. Everyone except Katherine is happy about this, she's greedy, (Y/n) can see it with a clarity that nobody else seems to grasp.

She's bitching about the fact that they're using their money to aid their brothels, giving the workers the choice of condoms, birth control, lube, clean sheets, staff that'll protect them, paid doctor visits. (Y/n) can distinctly watch how her mouths moves subtly when no one is listening.

"Let the whores pay for themselves, it's what they fucking get, slags"  

So in retort, (Y/n) visits their brothels. He doesn't go with any of the men, he doesn't want them to get excited by the idea that he's integrating himself into their gang more, that he'll follow their 'lovely' Katherine's foot steps.
