Tragic Past

Chapter seven

Bpov

Tonight, in less then 3 hours I will be half-naked in front of middle aged drunk men I freaking out what if I can't so it what if I fall or embarrass myself. Suddenly I was distracted from my thoughts when I heard a knock on my bedroom door. "Can I come in" I hear Toni's voice from the other side of the door. "Sure" I yelled so she can hear me. She came in and sat on my bed. "I was told to help you get ready" she said looking at me noticing I was nervous and anxious about tonight. "It's going to be fine just pretend that it's just you there and it also helps to take atleast 2 shots of liquor" she said trying to comfort me. "Thanks but what if I fuck up or-""your not going to mess up I remember feeling this nervous when I did the dance and guess what I just got it over with now all you habe to do is grow some balls and do it" she said interrupting me and making me chuckle from the last part. "I can do this ... I guess" I walked to sit down next to Toni who had a box in her hand. "Good and also here" she said handing me the box . I opened it to see a silk bra with matching underwear "You have to wear silk for some reason I don't want to know" she said shivering in disgust making me laugh more. "It best to wear it under clothes then undress your self during the process" she explained to me. "Thanks again Toni for everything" I said giving her a light hug. "No, problem Liz now hurry and get dressed we gotta get going" Toni said pulling away from the hug and walking out the room so I can change.

~~••••••••••~~

Me and Toni arrived at the wyrm. As I got closer I can see Jughead, Sweet Pea, Fangs and Joaquin standing around a motorcycle. "A Classic 500 Stealth Black with a matte finish" I said almost squealing." Damn she knows her stuff" Jughead said laughing. "This for you Liz " Sweet Pea said I was speachless. "You can stop drooling over the motorcycle now" Toni said making everyone laugh again while I waa still in shock. "Thanks" was all I managed to get out my mouth. "No problem" Fangs said. When I finally returned to reality We all went inside.

~~••••••••••~~
"30 more minutes" Aunt Gladys said to me. "Uh, oh..okay" I said nervous. "Here" Toni put a small tray with 3 shots of hard liquor before. I have drunk before back when my parents were out of town for a business trip I would go in my dad's liquor cabinet and drink my problems away and wake up in the morning and clean my mess up. "Thanks" I said. I took the first shot like nothing everyone was suprised by how I didn't have a reaction like if I never drunk before. "What" I said with a puzzled look on my face. "Nothing" Jughead said suprised about what I just did. "Just the fact that, that was the strongest liquor I have" Toni said behind the counter. "Well obviously not that strogest I had" I said telling the truth I had took stronger I just took it really scared I would become a drunk. "I'm shooketh" Joaquin said looking at me take the last 2 shots like nothing. "And I thought you couldn't get any more suprising" said Fangs with a grin. "10 more minutes Lizzy" Toni told me. Lizzy I like that I thought to my self. "Another round please" I said and Toni did as I said by the time I was done with that round I felt the effect on me it was working. "Its time to make your way to the stage" Aunt Gladys said. I made my way to the stage. "Everyone my I have your attention please and welcome to the stage Liz Copper" Fp said. I like how even though he knew they used to call me Betty he still called me Liz I'm guessing he heard Jughead probably calling me that since he did give me that nik name.

(After the dance)

"Please give miss Cooper a round of applause and welcome her to the family" Fp finished. I got of the stage to see Aunt Gladys so happy and Toni handing me my jacket. "See you did it Liz" said Aunt Gladys before she gave me a hug and whispered in my ear "Your mom would have wanted you to be apart of the family trust me" and she was right she would I guess. After I was congratulated the gang we went to sit back down. I was dressed again but wearing my jacket now. We sat down at the bar again. "What anything" Toni asked. "A water would be nice" I said right before I waa questioned by Fangs "Really no more alcohol" I rolled my eyes causing him to chuckle. "As much as I drink hard liquor that doesn't mean I do it often" I explained sipping my water rehydrating myself.

Later I went outside to get some fresh air and to revise on what had heppened. "There you are" I heard a voice a voice that belonged to Mr.Jones himself. "Can I help you jug" I said looking at him approach me. "What I can't just talk to you for no reason" he sounded seroius yet in a jokeing tone. I let out a small laugh. "So what you keep running away for" he questioned. "No reason just thinking" I sighed. "And may I ask about what" he said trying not to step out of line. "Just thinking about how grateful I am to finally have a family I always wanted" I said as I shrugged my shoulders. "Wow thats so... chessy" he trailed off trying to find the right word. "Ha ha thanks" I said sarcastically making him laugh.
