Lento

Chapter 28

Ally wakes you both up at like 2am for the flight. Lauren wakes up but you refuse to move.

"Y/n, baby, you gotta get up or we'll miss the flight."

"I'm comfyyyyyy." You whine.

"You can sleep on the plane."

"Fine." You say.

You sit up and bang your head.

"Ow."

"Aw. Did you hurt your head?"

"Yeah. I did. That really hurt." You say.

Lauren smiles. You shower and change. You all end up rushing. You forgot to take you adhd tablets. That should be fun. When you get on the plane, you sit down and fasten your belt. Lauren sits next to you. Yes this is a private jet. It's a long story.

After the flight, and at the interview, Lauren instantly notices something off about you. And then so do the girls. They realise that you might've forgotten to take your adhd tablets. So, while the interviewer is talking, there's something on the wall that distracts you. Mega distraction. You sit and look at that. Then a bird flies past the window. That draws your attention.

Lauren kicks you.

"Ow! What was that for?"

"You were staring out the window not paying attention."

"Sorry. We had to rush out the tour bus this morning and i forgot to take my adhd tablets so now I'm getting distracted by things."

"You have adhd?" The guy asks.

"Yeah. But i have tablets for it. So it isn't really that obvious." You say.

You manage to get through the interview. On the ride back home, you get distracted so much. You end up zoning out at some point.

"Y/n!"

You jump.

"Sorry. I did it again didn't i?"

Lauren nods.

"C'mon. We need to get those tablets in you." Lauren says.

You look back out the window. Lauren frowns.

"Are you okay?"

You nod. Your phone buzzes. It's a comment on your latest instagram post.

Hater01: Ugh Y/n is so ugly she should just go kill herself. Save us all the trouble of seeing her ugly face all the time

|Haterofy/n: couldn't agree more. Ugh she should just go kill herself already

| Y/nisamazing: absolutely the fuck not. You guys have nothing better than to bully a 17 year old. Fuck you both.

| Y/niscool: if you guys have nothing better to do than tell a 17 year old to kill herself then you have no rights to be here. Go fuck off and entertain yourselves.

| Jaureguibae: you have no rights to tell a 17 year old to kill herself. Do you know how much that can affect somebody? You should be ashamed of yourselves.

| Y/ndaboss: @y/ny/l/nofficial pay no attention to these basement dwelling assholes. They cant even make a creative name. You're perfect. Let nobody tell you anything else.

You put your phone in your pocket and sniffle. You wipe away a tear from your face.

Lauren notices that sniffle.

"Y/n?"

You dont answer. You put your headphones in and listen to music. Lauren frowns.

"Hey Ally?"

"Yeah?"

"I think something's wrong with Y/n."

"Why?"

"Cos she sounds like she's crying and she completely ignored me."

Ally, Dinah, Normani and Camila look over at you.

"Lemme talk to her." Ally says.

Ally and Lauren swap seats.

"Y/n?"

Ally taps your shoulder. You move closer to the window. She pulls off your headphones.

"Y/n?"

You shake your head.

"I just wanna talk."

You sniffle and wipe your tears. You turn to Ally.

"Have you been crying?" Ally asks.

Lauren looks over.

"No."

She hugs you. You hug back.

"Were you crying?"

You nod.

"Why?"

You pass your phone to Ally.

"Just check Instagram."

The girls look at your Instagram while you look out the window.

"What the fuck?!" Lauren shouts.

"What the fuck is wrong with people?!" Ally says angrily.

Ally swaps back with Lauren and she hugs you.

"Those people have no rights to say what they said. I need you not to pay any attention to what they say. Okay?"

You nod and hug her back. The coach thing stops and Bobby climbs on.

"Please dont tell me i have another interview." You say.

"Unfortunately so."

"I literally just wanna go home and see my mom and sister." You say.

"You've got like 4 interviews today."

"Oh good lord." Ally says.

"Lets just get em over with." You say.

You get to the location of the first of 4 interviews.

After all 4 interviews, you go home and get attacked with hugs from Callie and your mom.

"You got a tattoo?" Callie asks.

"What?"

"Nothing. I'm so tired. I'm gunna go to bed."

"That's okay. We'll talk about your hair and tattoo tomorrow." Your mom says.

You nod and go to bed.
