Mia looks around the church and looks down at the black dress and sighs. She feels a hand on her back, she looks up and smiles. "Hey, Clay," Mia says trying to keep herself together.
Clay gives her a small smile and hugs her. "How are you doing?" He asks, whispering in her ear. Mia shivers, "I'm fine, considering..." Mia separates from him.
She hugs Clay's mom and dad. She looks at Justin and her mouth twitches. "Thank you all for being here...you didn't have to..." Mia says as she wipes her nose.
"Mia, we're here for you," Justin says to her. Mia bites the inside of her cheek and brings Justin into a crushing hug. Justin gladly hugs her back. Justin was the only one who knew how she felt, granted her mother was hurting too. But, it was always, Justin, Bryce, and Mia. The two kings and their queen.
They knew Bryce did some terrible things, but he was their family. The people who were there for them from the beginning and now knowing that someone killed them...it's spine chilling.
Mia separates from him. She smiles at the family and waves to them before walking over to her family. Justin inhales a shaky breath, he didn't know if anyone else noticed, but...Mia was drunk.
Mia grabs her flask out of her purse and sits next to her mom. Nora looks at her, "Mia, put that away." She hisses.
Mia looks at her, "It's a funeral, mom...can't I mourn?" Mia slurs as she takes another sip.
"After the funeral, you are talking to your sponsor." Nora hisses as she snatches the flask out of her hand. Mia raises her hand in a surrendering manner. "Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed..." Mia turns and mumbles to Amara Josphine.
"No, It's just my son's funeral today, your brother's funeral." Nora points out. Mia looks at her mother, "You're talking to me like I don't know that." Mia scoffs.
Chatter is heard behind them, Mia turns and rolls her eyes. "Dad's here." Mia states.
Nora turns, "Late, to his own son's funeral! Why am I not surprised?" Nora questions.
"Well, he's dad. A terrible one at that." Mia says as she slumps in her seat.
"It's fortunate that he was able to find his way back to attend." Amara Josephine states.
Mia chuckles, "You mean he found his way back to sign the divorce papers." Mia corrects her.
"Sorry, Mum. I ran into a friend on my way to the restroom." Ani says. Mia smirks in an annoyed manner, she knew it was Clay...it's always Clay.
"And I see you never made it to the restroom. Now hush." Amara Josephine says.
Nora and Mia turn around once again as they hear Barry's chatter increase. "Jesus, even I know when to calm down," Mia whispers.
Ani squints her eyes and looks at Mia, "Mia. Are you...all right?" She asks.
Mia snorts, "I'm buzzed." Mia answers.
