Lace and Cigarettes
Authors Note- This is set in AU where Tate was never Rubberman, Violate never broke up, and everyone who is dead is still dead. Chad is Rubberman. He killed Patrick because of the infidelity then himself. He raped Vivien because he wanted a baby. This is supposed to be a fluffy Violate piece with a little Dead Breakfast Club drama mixed in. Please be gentle! This is my first time writing anything remotely like this!
Sometimes Tate forgets what he did. He even forgets that he is dead. The one thing he never forgets though is Violet. When he does remember everything, and she finds him sobbing on the floor, she holds him until seventeen bullet holes open up again and he dies all over again. Then he wakes up and becomes an oblivious amnesiac once again. Violet hates forgetting. She spends hours in the bathtub trying to remember her death. She recalls taking the pills, and then waking up in bed with slightly damp hair.
She leans back in the tub and lights her last cigarette. "I can't wait to get out of here tomorrow. Nothing new ever happens here, Tate."
Tate sits next to her on the floor playing solitaire. It is the day before Halloween. "you get used to it. It is your first year after all. Besides, we have each other."
Violet taps some ash into an empty ceramic bowl. "My parents have this whole family outing planned for tomorrow. Like I want to spend my first day out in almost a year with them when we are together all the time."
"We could go to the beach again this year. Light a fire. Maybe even finish what we started last year." Tate raises his eyebrows suggestively.
Violet smiles then becomes serious, "I don't think that is such a good idea, Tate, after what happened last year. We might run into those kids again."
"Vi, don't worry about them. Those were just some asshole kids playing a stupid Halloween prank."
Violet sighs. It is clear that he has forgotten again.
