I'm just like you
Even though my problems look nothing like yours do
I get sad too
And when I'm down I need somebody to talk to
———————————————————
Colby's POV:

Ugh. My head is pounding. Where am I?

"You're in your bed Colby." Sam says without emotion.

"Oh...didn't mean to say that out loud." I rub the sleep out of my eyes.
"How much did I dri-" I can't even finish my sentence before Sam's on my case.

"A SHIT TON,COLE! A SHIT TON!" I flinch at his tone.

"Oh god, you're calling me by my real name. Am I in trouble dad?" I pout like a child.

"Colby... I'm not playing, it's not just your career on the line, it's mine too!Get your act together!" He pauses, as if he's thinking " I know you're hurt. I know you're lonely, but drinking your sorrows away isn't going to fix it. You need to talk to the fans. Not me, not Jake, not anyone but yourself. I know you don't want to offend them, but gosh Colby you can't be around a girl without them flipping out. They are taking up for you beating the shit out of a bouncer. Colbs this isn't healthy."

I stop him before he continues this therapy session.

"Sam I'm not lonely. Yeah, Shea broke up with me. Yeah, she was mad I wouldn't talk to the fans...but you know what? The fans are here for me more than she ever was, so she can fuck off!" I start to get angry, that tends to happen when I talk about her.

"Colby I hate to say it, but I'm on her side. She... we talked before she broke up with you an-"

"HOLD THE FUCK UP! You talked to Shea before she broke up with me!" Sam nods.

"You told her to. Didn't you?" Sam adverts his gaze.

"What kind of best friend are you!"

"Colby you need help, and people treating you like a child isn't gonna fix it. When's the last time you went without a drink for more than a day?" The room goes silent.

"That's what I thought. Colby you need to go to rehab. You can fix this."

"Oh, so this is you staging a fucking intervention, making my girl break up with me?"

"She's the reason you started drinking! She cheated on you and you stayed, but you know who joined the relationship, good ole Jack Daniels. I was being a good friend, you don't see it now, but you will soon." I can't even rebuttal that. He's right.

"Sam I'm-"

"No, you're not sorry until you get help. The channel is on hold till you do." He leaves before I can fight back.

Shit.

I open Twitter and number one trending

#colbybrockisoverparty

Great!!!

Should I release an apology? Do I do that after rehab? Ughhhhhhh I don't know what my life is anymore.

I'm just like everyone else, I fuck up, but because I'm "famous" I'm held to a higher standard. It's bullshit.

I wish I had someone who understood, not Shea, someone who loves me, and only me.

Not thinking I go to post on my Insta story. Not an apology. Nope.

"Hey guys, how do I get a girlfriend?"

(A/N listen I love Shea! She's probably the only person I ship Colby with because of how great she is. But In this book she is a character. Not the Shea we know. Also you are gonna want to beat Colby up this whole story so just get ready. Also we love dad Sam lol. Comment and vote✌️)
