It felt good being back out doing runs I knew I needed to be even more cautious than I normally would be because I was out here doing it by myself. But I needed this, I needed to make myself useful instead of sitting around dwelling on things beating myself up about things that weren't my fault to begin with.
When I got to Midvale to meet Roman at our usual spot I called Sweet Pea to tell him I made it here and I was just waiting for Roman to pick up the liquor I was running to him. A while later Roman pulled up with his box truck so it could be loaded up and taken to the Viper Room. "Wow Jade what happened to you?" Roman said seeing my face with the light from the truck. "Toni and I are done, after prom we went to an after party. She fucked the girl who hosted the party. I haven't slept or ate since that happened."
He looked at me wide eyed his mouth dropped open "no fucking way?! She seemed like a great girl when you guys were up here. You even went and did that thing you were supposed to surprise her with. That's so fucked up I'm sorry." I stood silent for a minute "yeah well it happened I can't keep wallowing in my own sorrow. I'm SQ I can't afford to be away from everyone anymore." I respond.
"Well you know you can always come up here to let loose, I'll take care of you with the hotel and at the club. Anytime the offer stands." Roman says handing me an envelope full of cash. "Thanks Roman I'll call you up and set something up soon." I'll see you in a few days. I respond sticking the envelope in my pocket.
I made my way back to Riverdale it was pretty late and I couldn't deny my hunger anymore. The last place I wanted to go to was Pop's knowing that more than likely Hermione would be working there. But I reminded myself of what I just told Roman. I'm Serpent Queen now, I can't be weak anymore. I can't run from what has hurt me. I had to face things head on, and this would be the perfect time to do so.
It was a little past 2:00am so I doubted anyone would really be around this was my opportunity to hear Hermione's side of the story. As I parked the truck I used for the run in my shop. I got in my Jeep and drove to Pop's. Just like I had anticipated it was empty. I took a deep breath before getting out. I walked inside where I took a seat at the counter.
Hermione walked out from the kitchen, she walked over to me and smiled. But then as she got closer that smile turned into a frown. "Please don't even say anything about me looking like shit, I've heard it enough this week." I blurt out convincing myself that's what was about to come out of her mouth.
"I wasn't going to say that at all, I'm just surprised to see you here this late by yourself."
"Yeah well I had stuff to do alone tonight so that's why, I'm starving so can I get my usual please." I was surprised I was being so nice, but my mind was on food. She turned and walked away handing the ticket to Dean the late night cook. She walked over got a cup filled it with ice and then filled the cup with a Dr.Pepper "here ya go food will be out in a few." She said handing me my drink.
