Betty's POV

(A/N: I'm the realist. ^ I'm very sorry)

I woke up pretty early today. I kept thinking about last night, when Jones wanted to become a Serpent. I know I said no and everything, but the thought of him willing to be apart of something I control, makes me feel like he's being sincere.

If he really wanted to be a Serpent, I guess I could make him prove himself in the initiation.

I think for a moment. "This is all moving a little fast."

I mean, not even a week ago I hated him, now I'm thinking about recruiting him into my gang!

But if I really want to be able to trust Jones, I'm going to need to start getting closer to him, like before the whole "I tried to murder you" thing.

We got so close so quick. Maybe we don't actually hate each other. Maybe we just thought we had to.

I mean, don't get me wrong, he's still a huge dick. But he could be a huge dick that I tolerated.

I decide to give him the benefit of the doubt. "Lord, Jones. If you screw me over again..."

I've been awake for a while now, I just haven't got up yet.

I swing my legs out from under the covers, stretching as I do so, and then immediately start getting dressed.

In about 20 minutes, I'm fully ready for the day. I brushed my teeth, my hair, got dressed, you get it.

I then head up into the main room of the Wyrm. I always like getting here early, there's barely anyone here. The usually packed bar, just has a couple of sweet older people of the gang.

I walk behind the bar to get a drink of water. "Hey, Betty," Birdy, an older Serpent calls to me.

"Yes, ma'am?" I ask, pouring my water in a glass.

"Do we have any coffee here?"

"Um, no. No, I don't think so," I chuckle a little bit.

"Aww, shucks," she says as she gets up from the bar stool. "I'll have to stop by Pop's."

And with that she walks out the door of the Wyrm.

See what I mean? So sweet, right? Not really. Birdy held a knife to my neck one time... to be fair, I deserved it.

Long story for another day.

I walk over to the stage really quickly as I see more and more people coming into the bar.

"Hey!" I call from over the stage. "Who has Hotdog right now?"

"Fangs!" Someone in the crowd yells.

"Thank you," I say as I walk off the stage and out the door to my bike.

I get on, and then realize I forgot my keys so I rush back inside really quick, grab 'em, then I get back on my bike.

I start the engine then ride over to Fangs' trailer. I just walk inside, since me and him are really close. I even have a key but dumbass over here forgot to lock his door so I didn't even need to use it.
