Ringin' in the New Year with the Country folk!

[Mercedes Kearney]

Sadie sighed. "Ron I came because I wanted to be here for Maddie. I'm not a bad person Ron, and I didnt have that big of a problem with Jackson untill he hit me, for no god damn reason." She took a drag of her cigarette then went to her car and took out a first aid kit. "Can I atleast clean you up?" She took out an alchohol wipe and cleaned his face where it was cut up a little, put some water on it then handed him an ice pack. "here put that on it, get the swelling down. "What was I supposed to do, stay at home all by myself on new years, Fallon isnt that much of a partier." She sat on the hood of the car and patted next to her asking him to sit down

[Ron Spence]

As she asked to clean him up he felt where he was bleeding and suddenly remembered that and nodded his head to allow her. He was use to having her clean him up, mostly because of playing sports on the streets over fighting or anything like that but he wasn't about to stop her here either. She usually knew what was best for him. "Well then see there's my beef, you guys came just to come crash the party. There were other parties going on in New Years and you guys purposly choose this one to come crash it. Not to party like the rest of us did." He was glad he could talk to her about this, unlike Vik who seemed to just want to fight somebody. "I can tell you that you shouldve stayed home over comming here though. It doesn't take a genious to figure out to stay home over going to your worst enemies party. Appearently not with you guys though. I just want everyone to get along and comming in the group you guys did isn't going to do anything but mke you all hate each other even more. You know that."

Sadie smiled softly. "I knoew youre right Ron, but some things just cant be prevented. Ive let Jackson push me around for way to long." Sadie took one last drag of her cigarette then took a cloth out of the first aid kit. "I need to show you something but you gotta promise you wont tell anyone." She put some water on the cloth and began to wipe near her spine on the lower part of her back. "this is what Jackson did to me the day I broke up with him. No one has ever seen it because I always put cover up on it." She showed him a pretty decent sized scar. "he got so angry he took his knife out and into my back it went." She put ehr shirt back down. "Ive been trying to be somewhat nice to him because of Maddie"

[Ron Spence]

As soon as she said that about how she was no longer going to let him push her around he simply spoke back some meaningful lyrics "Imagine all the people, Living for today" It was simply lyrics by John Lennon, an artist Ron liked to quote lot but when she showed him the cut his eyes went wide and turned from a peace activist to a brother. "I don't want you near that guy anymore. I want you to avoid him. Going anywhere he goes, expecially parties that he holds is just going to be bad news, ok Sadie?" Taking a drink of water he went on. "Maybe I need to talk to Jackson, he's about to kill somebody, or somebody is about to kill him. Can you agree with me on that? And can you agree with me even more that it's the last thing we want? Or somebody in the hospital?" He didn't know why so many people around him were so blood thirsty these days, itching to step in and get involved in the drama. Was Ron the only one that wanted everyone to get along?

"Am i the only one that wants us all to get alone?"

[Mercedes Kearney]

Sadie nodded. "I will stay away from him Ron, but do you really need to talk to him, I mean he hates me and I think that it would just make things a hell of a lot worse." She took a sip of her water and rested her head on Ron's sholder. "My bloody head is killing me. What in the hell did he hit me with anyways." Sadie smiled. "I did throw him a pretty nasty punch back" Sadie may look like she was breakable, but she was tough. But then again all she really wanted was to be cared about and truly loved

[Ron Spence]

After she said all of that Ron could say a million things but in the end he was just going to repeat what he said to her and then tell Jackson the same thing when he got a chance to talk to him. Probibly a few others to. "Sadie.." He looked her int he eyes this time. The alcohol was managing to wear down a bit as now he could look at her in the eyes. "Violence isn't the answer, it never is, it's never going to be. Can you at the very least agree with me on that?" He wanted to hear it from her and he just planned on asking her that again if she went off saying something else and refusing to answer that. "It's just going to get somebody in the hospital or even worse death."

[Mercedes Kearney]

Sadie sighed. "yeah Ronnie McDonald I can alteast agree with you on that." She took another sip of her water then looked at the sky. "I'm pretty proud of you for not hitting Vik. How is your face feeling anyways" Sadie knew that this night had cost her atleast three days of training but she knew it was her own fault. "what do you say, wanna stay here for a while. I mean were here anyways and it is New Years." Sadie rubbed the back of her head and luckily all she felt was a bump

[Ron Spence]

He blew off getting hit in the face. "Don't worry, it wouldn't have been a proper night out for me if I didn't get hit in the face some way or another." He had a point there, almost every time they went out he was famous for doing something to get himself hit int he face. Running into things when he wasn't looking where he was going was the most common, followed by sports, still this wasn't the first time he had gotten punched in the face either and this wasn't the first time Sadie was cleaning off his face, wasn't even close. "Give me like... an hour.. even half an hour, and I'll drive us back." He already needed to break the seal and that meant his alcohol level was going down. Plus he was no lightwaight so he should be fine eventually.

[Mercedes Kearney]

Sadie smiled softly. "Ron I know you better and dont forget you can be yourself around me, you dont need to put on the tough guy act." Sadie stood up off the car and offered Ron her hand. "You are just really excited about driving my car, dont think its going to happen that ofter." Sadie smiled and then took another sip of her water. She might as well try to have fun it had been a long week being back in Drakesville and she knew it was just the beginning.
