Awaking from his sleep, Jason got dressed into his usual wear, a red hoodie, black and grey leather jacket, jeans, and a random shirt of his choosing, Jason walks out of his apartment and goes to his local bus stop. Great… I have to go to go to Shitwell Academy… should be a fan-fucking-tastic day.
As Jason gets on his bus, he sees Rachel Amber, one of the most popular girls in his grade. Jason recognizes her from the concert last night and he decides to sit by her.
“Uh… do I know you?” says Rachel.
Jason smiles and replies, “No, but I saw you at the concert last night.”
“Yeah? Who was playing?”
“Firewalk.”
“I don’t know if I should trust you. I don’t even know your name.”
“Jason Todd. I’m a good guy. Trust me.”
Jason looks out the window and sees Blackwell.
“Alright, Mr. Todd. I’ll trust you. Would you also be willing to skip with me and someone else?” asks Rachel.
Jason gets ecstatic over the thought of skipping. But he did wonder who the other person was, but he didn’t want to spoil the surprise.
The two part ways, and Jason walks the halls, and waits outside Rachel’s drama class. The clubs performing The Tempest tomorrow… eh, who gives a damn. Jason grins as Rachel walks out and he sees the other girl from last night.
“Come on,” says Rachel.
The two girls disappear for a bit, and Jason prepares to get ready to leave. Then the girls walk out with Jason.
“Uh, Rachel, who’s this?” says the blonde, short haired girl.
“Chloe, this is Jason Todd.”
Jason extends his hand out towards Chloe. She shakes his hand and the two lock eyes.
Sometime later, they arrive at the train tracks, and Jason gets curious.
“Rachel, what’re we doing here?”
“Waiting for our ride,” ecstatically replies Rachel. Jason and Chloe look at each other and laugh a bit. Then, their “ride” appears. It was a train with one of the cargo holds opened up.
“A train. This is fuckin’ nuts. I love it!” Jason laughs as he sees the two girls get on first. He then jumps onto the train as well. Seeing an opportunity, Jason gets an idea.
“Hey, I’ll be in the back. I’m gonna look for something.”
The girls look at him, but let Jason do his thing. He shifts through the boxes and thinks allowed to himself, “Would Damon use these for transporting drugs and weapons?” Jason says there for about 30 minutes before returning. He sees the two girls jump off the train. Jason also jumps, but he somehow lands in front of the girls.
“Did he just do that?” Chloe laughs and looks at Jason, bewildered.
He shrugs it off, starts walking around. “Are we here on a field trip?” Jason laughs. This… Place… Is… Beautiful!
The trio walked along the parks path to the overlooks. Rachel and Chloe were looking through the lookouts. Jason, however, was roaming the park. He’d been reminded of how much he loved nature. Jason was even tempted to take a few pictures, which he did. “It’s been a few years… I’m rusty.” Jason continues to walk around and he makes his way back to girls. Rachel seemed pretty pissed off, and Chloe was trying to help.
“Anyone wanna get… drunk? A couple left some wine out, and they’re not there, so I thought that I’d get it…” Jason offers. Chloe and Rachel look at each other, and nod in agreement.
Jason smiles and runs to get it. Man, I should not be stealing, but dammit. Just don’t leave wine out. Dumbasses. He snags the wine and he gets back to the girls, offering them the wine. “Here. I thought it was something that you’d want. I’ll take sips here and there, but-“ Jason began to say before Rachel took the bottle. He just shrugs and begins whittling away at some wood.
Jason walks in front of of Rachel and Chloe, looking at his creation. He smiles at it, not realizing that the girls stopped at the junkyard. He turns around and sees them arguing. He wanted to intervene, but Rachel stormed off. Jason wants to go after her, but he can’t leave Chloe behind.
“Chloe?” Jason walks up to Chloe, who was shaking. She glares at Jason, but he doesn’t give up.
“I can help you, Chloe. Trust me,” he says to Chloe, who begins to cry.
Jason holds her there, and just lets her cry.
