location: Hoopers with: Freddie Dawson @saintfred tw: alcohol, smoking
It had been a long time since Angela had darkened doorways in Charming. This particular door gave her slightly less pause than all the others, but in fairness she came prepared with a pack of cigarettes (the kind Freddie smoked before Angie had taken off) and a brand new lighter. It had been a hell of a week, and seeing as Lily was with Charlie’s parents for the day, the woman had figured she may as well see if her old friend was in. Even still, she paused as she took stock of who was there. Luckily, it was early enough in the day that things were still relatively quiet. Rather than do anything to draw attention to herself, Angie went to what had been her usual corner when she needed a drink and sets her offering on the bar before seating herself. It doesn’t matter how long it takes, it never did. Bartending teaches you patience like that, and she knows as well as any other what it takes to make a place go. Freddie would always get to her when she could, and Angie can only hope that hasn’t changed.
