Last night did not turn out very well at all, for anyone at all. Me and tracy tried to persuade peep not to do the show, saying that tracy will do it instead but peep said that they paid to see him and not tracy and let me say tracy didn't take it very well especially not in the way peep had meant it. 

He stormed off but came back just before peep was about to go on stage which was handy, and that's when it all kicked off 

Flashback

I'm standing next to peep in the hallway which lead to the stage, his head was hanging low with his body slumped against the wall.

Everyone who was walking past us in the hallway ignored peep, no one asked him if he was okay. They just ignored him and carried on watching the show which was taking place infront of their eyes.

"Peep, you motherfucker!" Someone shouted walking into the building causing everyones head to turn in the direction of tracy marching up towards us with peep's management close behind him

Peep lifted his head up but slowly as if it was almost heavy, he was still fucked up from whatever had happened on the bus. But he didn't seem to be bothered by it 

 Tracy was now stood in front of both of us staring at us.

"Well are you not gonna say anything cleo?" He said with a hint of sassiness in his tone putting his hands on his hips.

I shrugged my shoulders "I didn't think it'll be this hard tracy" I mumbled shrugging my shoulders again

He shook his head "Well I'm gonna stop it from happening"

"Sorry have I missed something here?" Peep mumbled looking more alive now as he moved his head back and forth between us trying to figure out what his best friend meant 

We both shook our heads smiling trying to hid the fact that he was days away from his death and we were trying to prevent it from happening all over again

We stayed silent for a couple of minutes until peeps manager began to approach us, tracy felt the need to step on my toes telling me to talk

"Look peep we don't think you should do the show, you're obviously not in the right head space to be doing the show" I thought carefully about the next words I was about to say as my eyes were trained on his manager walking up to us "think about-" 

Tracy cut me off "Look peep if you keep on going on like this it's going to kill you, you have to believe me" he opened his mouth again but a voice cut him off 

"lookwho it is, Yung bruh or should I said Lil Tracy or whatever you like to be called now" chase, peeps manager said  over exaggerating staring at tracy "What brings you here, it's a pleasure to have you, hopefully performing-" tracy cut him off 

"Yeah shut the fuck up" he turned his attention back to peep putting his hands on his shoulders "Peep man, you're fucked up don't do this" 

"Come on peep, your shows about to start" Chase said peeling peep off the wall by his arm

The hellboy intro started to play seconds after he said that 

Peep moved out of the little circled that we has all formed around him and walked onto the stage leaving me and tracy and chase running after peep, helping him onto the stage.

Halfway through the show, chase approached us before tracy could tell him to fuck off he started talking

"Look I don't know what you too think of me and frankly I do not care but whatever you're trying to get into peep's head about us trying to kill him? or harm him? honestly I don't know but just stop."

Tracy kissed his lips and shook his head before talking

"I know exactly what your up to" he said before grabbing my hand and walking away 

End of flashback

 "Well last night was interesting" Peep said breaking the silence as we all sat in the back, well I say all It was me tracy and peep like it always was recently.

Tracy stared at peep not saying anything 

I could feel the tension in the room no-one in this room has said a word to each other all morning

"So cleo where did you go to school?" Peep turned to me asking 

"Shut up peep, don't start with that bullshit" Tracy said

"Why is everyone being weird with me, did I do something last night or something, if I did and I upset you I'm sorry can't remember anything" he mumbled 

"It's the fact you didn't do anything peep" I said jumping up to my feet"Your management treat you like an animal, they prop you up with drugs and put you on that stage to perform. They know about your drug problem and your battles with your mental health, they should be helping and supporting you, not giving you drugs. Last night was terrible sorry to say but you didn't have a clue what was going on peep and it was your own show. I'm scared that you're not going to finish this tour alive if you carry on like this and let them treat you like dog shit" I said sitting down crossing my arms over my chest

I can't believe i just did that I practically just had a go at my favourite artist

I should probably say sorry later on when tracy isn't around

What no he needs to listen to us

"Thank god someone said it, I thought I was going crazy" Peep laughed confusing both me and tracy as we both looked at each other, thinking that he has finally got what we were trying to show him into his head

"I didn't have a clue what was going on last night, Belinda must have given me something different or something" he shrugged carrying on scrolling through his phone

I looked over to tracy to see him already looking at me with a pissed off look on his face. 

"Fucks sake peep you don't understand what we're trying to say, honestly I don't see any reason for me and cleo to be here if your not trying to understand us" Tracy said standing up grabbing peeps attention before walking out of the room

"Sorry peep" I said to him, I could tell deep down he knew what was going to happen but he didn't have the guts to do anything about it.

"Whatever bro, as soon as he started acting weird and zombie like, like last night call me straight away I don't care how far away you are" Tracy said to bexey who was sat on the couch smoking a blunt before looking up to me and nodding.

We Both left the bus I expected peep to come running after us like he did last time, but because the bus it self was about to leave for it's next show it just drove off.
