He watched with a grin on his face as things got weird fast in regards to the pool. It was amazing. He had been graduated for mere hours and already his friendships and loyalties, that just a year ago had seemed unbreakable, were already starting to come apart. He liked Damien and Marco well enough but the others…<br/><br/>“Jeez, I did it again. I show up somewhere and everyone wants to get the hell away from me." Jeremiah made a big production of checking his pits for stink. "What is it about me that makes people want to leave?"<br/><br/>Miriam didn't have a chance to give her usual witty rejoinder when a big commotion at the pool grabbed everyone's attention. Some shouts, threats, and talk of anal sex later the party seemed to come to an official and unceremonious end. Being their typical selves, Jeremiah and Miriam merely crossed their arms and watched the whole thing go down with a mocking smirk. "You know, I don't think anybody deserved that more than those clowns in the pool." Miriam said.<br/><br/>"I dunno. Benny maybe." Jeremiah replied with a straight face.<br/><br/>"Benny<em>definitely</em>."<br/><br/>There were more chuckles before Jeremiah nodded in agreement to Gwynn’s suggestion that we blow this popsicle stand. “Yeah, that seems the way to go.” The couple made their customary brief goodbyes, with Jeremiah providing a bro-hug back to the always pleasant Damien. “Oh and I got a few goodies for when we get to the ‘haunted house’. Just come by, I owe you.”<br/><br/>“‘Goodies?’” Miriam asked as they walked quickly towards her car. “You think Damien’s going to go for the vodka or the beer?”<br/><br/>“Well beer of course,” Jeremiah said as he got in the passenger seat. “You ever know any of us meatheads get anything aside from that. Buuuut…” He unzipped a pocket on his vest and took out a baggie some rather potent looking plant matter. “I was<em>really</em>talking about this.”<br/><br/>Miriam got hit with a mix of emotions. One was excitement at seeing that Jeremiah was able to get his hands on what looked like purple kush. The other was absolute horror. “Put that away asshole! I’m about to start fucking driving!”<br/><br/>“Come on. Am I going to let my girl ride dirty?” Despite that, Jeremiah put the baggie away. “I promise only to bring it out when appropriate okay Miss Fancy Pants?”<br/><br/>Smiling, Miriam started driving the short distance away to the farm. “You know funny you should mention that. I was talking to my brother and, apparently, he still tokes up.”<br/><br/>“Well, I would be shocked if you told me that Sam<em>didn’t</em>toke up.”<br/><br/>“Not Sam! Lije.” Miriam shook her head as she turned at an intersection. “Married, grandchild giving, six figure earning, East Coast living, perfectly bourgeois Lije. Of all people.”<br/><br/>“See? When you’re married and on the East Coast it’ll be just fine to do a J. That’s good news right?” Jeremiah couldn’t help but notice the moments of awkward silence after he had said that. “Well that is, if you want to move to the East Coast…”<br/><br/>“Or get married?” Miriam said as she come to a stop. “I think we should not worry too much about marriage. Maybe think about September?”<br/><br/>“Now? You want to talk about that now?” Jeremiah ran his fingers through his hair and let awkward silence settle again. “I’ve signed up for Greenfield Community College but you know...I’m still considering my options. You know if I go to basic training I’ll only be gone for a couple of months.”<br/><br/>The last turn they needed to get to the farm was coming up and Miriam sighed loudly. “Okay, maybe now is not the best time to talk about this.” She found a place to park and settled her car in before she turned it off and smiled at Jeremiah. “For tonight let’s just get fucked up enough so we don’t have to think about it.”<br/><br/>“Sold. Now let’s track down the rest of the crew. Leave the booze in the trunk for now. We’ll get it when we need it otherwise some greedy little boys and girls will get their paws all over it.”<br/><br/>Miriam got out of the car and looked seriously at Jeremiah from across the hood. “‘Leave the booze,” she said in her best Godfather voice. “Take the weed.” Thankfully, that got a laugh from Jeremiah lightening the mood somewhat. “But you’re right, greedy little boys and girls are the<em>worst</em>! Speaking of which…” Miriam pointed. “The dime store Kim Kardashian is there with Gwynn and Damien. Looks like they’re doing something that resembles dancing.”<br/><br/>“Well, as you know, I have to get a lot more drunk to dance.” Jeremiah put his arm around Miriam’s shoulder and led her to the barn to meet their friends.<br/><br/>“I’ll just have to find a way to get you drunk then,” Miriam said.<br/><br/>“Are you trying to sexually assault me, Miss Goldman?”<br/><br/>That got Miriam in stitches by the time they actually got to the barn, leading to another reunion of her and Gwynn as they hugged it out again. “Well this is a lot more interesting than the bullshit at the pool right? So you wanna dance, Blondie or…”<br/><br/>Miriam glanced at Damien and Megan as she pinched her fingers and brought them to her lips and sucked in her breath. She held the imaginary joint out to Gwynn. “Good shit right?” she said tightly.<br/><br/>Jeremiah chuckled. “Subtle, babe. Subtle. But yeah I got the stuff and papers. Just need a spot to set it all up and enjoy it.”
