"You may be running but will you be able to forget the friendship we had? Or will you come crawling back, upset regretting things you have done?" Sweet Pea called standing up.

"Just shut up Sweet Pea!" Fangs retorted walking away.

"You're letting everyone down you know" Sweet Pea called out.

"Oh am I?" Fangs shouted back.

"What about the serpents? What will they think about you leaving?" Sweet Pea asked.

"They have thick skin they'll get over it" Fangs shouted back.

"But will I? You're best friend? Will I get over the fact that you would just give up everything you have ever had just to run?" Sweet Pea asked. Fangs stopped in his tracks.

"You won't miss me" Fangs replied.

"You would give up the Serpents. The people you call family. Why?" Sweet Pea asked.

"Sometimes you have to grow up" Fangs told him.

"You're 17, you have years till you "have" to grow up" Sweet Pea reminded.

"Do I?" Fangs questioned.

"Yes. Stay with the Serpents. I know you want to." Sweet Pea walked towards Fangs.

"And if I don't?" Fangs retorted.

"Stay for your friends. The family that you created. The ones that look up to you." Sweet Pea replied gently grabbing Fangs' arm.
