The Way It Is (A Pierce the Veil Fanfic) *EDITING*

Chapter 16 - Tony is a Hufflepuff

~~Jaime's POV~~

It's Friday.

I told my mother today.

How did it go?

Well, I stopped at a liquor store on the way home and have been drinking since 3pm. It's now 6pm. You can draw your own damn conclusion.

Whatever, I don't want to fucking talk about it.

I am currently in the kitchen chugging straight from the... Third? Bottle of rum of the night. I'm heavily intoxicated. I don't even fucking care. Today was the god damn worst. I deserved a drink. Or twenty.

Who gives a shit?

I hear the front door close and smile a little. I turn my head to see Vic and Mike are home. Today was 'family day' so they we all went to visit our parents. Guess Tone is still with his mom and sister.

"H-Hey babessssssss." I slur, raising the bottle before taking another swig.

"Uh, hey hun... Are you drunk?" Vic quizzed looking a bit worried. Was he worried? I don't know, he's blurry.

"It would seem soo." I giggle out, taking yet another drink. Hot damn, this is fantastic rum. I'm a pirate. ARGGG! Heh heh.

"Hime, what happened? Rum is your sad drink." Mike asked as he came into the room.

"Does anything about what I'm doing make it seem like I want to talk about it?" I spat, shooting a glare at him.

"C'mon babe, you have to talk about it. Keeping something like this in will only eat you up." Vic posed, looking at me in the eyes placing his hands on my cheeks.

I felt tears threatening to fall as I thought about today. I shook his hands off and pushed him back a little harder than I intended. I didn't really care though.

"No! I said I didn't want to talk about it!"

"Hey! Obviously, something happened but that doesn't give you the right to be a prick and push Vic around. He cares about you and doesn't want you to keep things in when they'll just cause you pain." Mike raised his voice a little. He looked kinda mad. Why? I told them to fucking leave it!

"Are you seriously getting mad at me right now? Leave it alone, Mike!"

"Tell us what happened with your mom!" He countered.

"Don't keep it in, babe." Vic said softly. I scoffed. Now, I'm fucking pissed off.

"You want to talk about keeping things in?! Let's talk about 20-fucking-10!"

"What?" They both questioned at the same time.

Really? Like they don't fucking remember!!

"What was it, September? We were at one of Jack and Alex's parties? Ring any fucking bells?!" I practically yelled, slamming a fist down onto the counter.

Silence.

I'm fuming.

"No? Allow me to refresh your memory then! You two got fucking trashed and disappeared half way through the night. Come to find out that you," I pointed to Mike, "went home with that trashy slut Alysha and you," I pointed to Vic, "went home with that red headed demon, Danielle, and you guys," I waved my finger between the pair, "fucked them. YOU BOTH FUCKING CHEATED ON ME AND TONY! What, did you think I was stupid? That I wouldn't find out?? That I wouldn't question Jack and Alex about where you guys had gone? You thought you could just hide it. 'Keep it in' as you said."

They both looked shocked. Vic looked like he was about to cry and Mike's mouth was hanging open slightly.

*CLANG*
