It's our last night in New York. I'm going to miss it here so much. We've mailed most of my shit to CC and Vicy's. I'm sure they're going to love dealing with me and Rikki all the time. Eventually I'll just move in with him. CC is going to hate that for certain.
We're all sitting around a table at a bar. Everyone finds it amusing every time I try to open a beer with my casted hand. Also they have found amusement is how CC and I (both being born and bred in Brooklyn) say beer. I guess they say it differently in Pennsylvania and Alabama.
"Beeya!" They all say over and over again, laughing harder every time it was said.
We kinda just start telling stories.
"Well the unofficial queen of all trouble makers should have some stories." Vicy speaks up.
"Yeah, CC you should have tons." I add and everyone laughs.
"I meant you, Minnie." Vic laughs.
"What's this unofficial bullshit?" I wonder. "I am the reigning queen."
"So your coronation must've been getting kicked out of that Catholic school." CC speaks up.
"You got kicked out of a school?" Bret questions.
"The funniest part was she was in the first grade." Vic laughs.
"How?" Bobby wonders.
"I didn't like the stupid fucking uniform we had to wear and I said I didn't like the stupid fucking uniform we had to wear. My parents taught me to swear at a young age and the nuns didn't take kindly to this at all. They told me I was not welcomed back." I explain.
"So you got kicked out of the school." Rikki laughs and I nod. "All hail the queen."
Bobby and Bret in a drunken mess try to say God save the queen and end up passing out in the corner. Rikki and CC went to go shoot pool and Vic and I are left at the table.
"If you were ever to get married, where would it be?" Vic asks and she seems a million miles away.
"Ireland." I admit. "I think it's the only place I love more than Brooklyn."
We watch our boyfriends shoot pool for a while before she talks again.
"You feel that grand slam thing yet?" She wonders.
I have to think about it for a minute.
"Starting to." I admit. "I'm starting to understand what's you meant."
"It's feels real nice, doesn't it?" Vic asks.
"Yeah, Sodapop had it right." I admit.
