MC Devil Dogs #5 Finally Someone To Love

Vanished

Juniper

     I have been getting things ready over the last couple weeks so that I can just leave.  I hate to do Vee this way but things have went from bad to worse.  Hotshot's girlfriend has spread lies about me and when I am in town now people have started to treat me like I am scum.  I mean they all believe I am bullying a pregnant woman.  I just ignore the sneers and whispers and do my business.  The hospital also received complaints from so called patients about my treatment of them.  I was called into the supervisor's office today for a meeting with her and Vee.  I can tell by the look on Vee's face this is not going to be a good meeting.  I take my seat and Mrs. Nelson starts with how they have to take the complaints of the patients seriously.  I know where this is leading too.  I interrupted her and asked "Are you firing me?"  I see the look that passes between Vee and her.  Vee answers my question "Juniper I am sorry I tried to fix this but there are too many complaints for the hospital to ignore it.  I am fighting for you to keep your job but for now they want to put you on unpaid leave until this is resolved.  I know this is a vendetta against you and I am so very sorry."  I stand up and say "Okay I will grab my purse and leave."  I turned and walked out.  I hear Vee yelling for me as I walk to the office.  I am so fed up with life right now.  I get into my office and grab my stuff out of the desk.  I hear Vee come in behind me.  I know this is not her fault but I am just so tired of everything and everyone right now.  Vee walks up and hugs me.  I stand there and let her because I know this is not her fault.  Vee tells me "Juniper I will do all that I can to make sure you get to keep your job just give me some time to figure it out."  I mean what do I say?  I say the only thing I can say right now "Okay, I understand Vee.  Thank you."  I leave the office and head downstairs.  I know I am supposed to wait on someone to follow me or take me home, well to Tank's place.  Today I am going to my home to pack the rest of what I want to take.  I am done with this town and the people in it.  I went by the bank to take out my money.  As I am standing in line an older woman walks up to me and starts with "You should be ashamed of yourself.  We all know what you are and well we don't like your kind."  I stand there saying nothing.  I owe this old bitch nothing.  I finally make it to the counter and withdraw my money.  The teller who is usually nice to me is cold and distant.  I grabbed my money and walked toward the door.  The old bitch steps in front of me and starts with her mouth again.  I try and walk passed her but she grabs my arm.  I snatch my arm away then look around at everyone watching me.  I tell them all "You people need to get a life.  I have done nothing to anyone.  I mean is the baby even Hotshots?  And as far as you are concerned from what we all know you should be worried about your husband fucking the secretary at his law firm.  Fuck you all and have a nice day!"  I walk out feeling better now.  

     I pack up some of my favorite clothes and personal belongings.  My phone continues to ring and each time it's Vee or unknown.  I send Vee a text telling her I am okay just home taking a break from everything.  I finish up then go downstairs and tell the office manager that I am leaving.  She explains about having to give a sixty day notice so I write out a note saying so.  I then pay her two months of rent and let her know she can have what's left in my apartment.  I make my way to the car throw my last bag in and head out.  As I drive through town I feel a sense of loss.  I mean for months I did consider this place my home and made some friends.  I don't know when things went wrong but it did.  I get to the county line and as I cross over i feel a sense of relief.  I said my goodbyes and continued on.  I plan on getting as much distance between this town and myself.  I drive for the next twelve hours until I can't drive anymore.  I stop off at a hotel and pay cash for a room.  I crash for the night with plans on leaving early in the morning to drive even further away from the place I considered home.  Goodbye Tank, Vee, Blade, Oscar, Peanut and all the rest of you guys our time has run it's course.
