Into The Spotlight

The Big Apple

A week later Liam sits on the tonight show with Jimmy Fallon as they talk about his recent success. Liam who has been drinking very heavily before the show is buzzed up. "So Liam I mean how does it feel to be a rockstar with such successful music so early in your career," asks Jimmy who can't stop laughing at Liam's intoxicated personality.

"You know Jimmy it feels good but I'm very lucky to be in the position I am today," says Liam as Jimmy busts out his first record.

"You went on tour with Tessa Tate who is dating your best friend since second grade. How does that feel especially with how both your fans pretty much do nothing but fantasize about you guys being together," he asks as Liam laughs.

"You know how fans are they can be extreme sometimes but I still love them all the same. Tessa is super talented and going on tour with her was so fun. I taught her how to play guitar and she got the chance to play one of my songs in Sydney and I think that really sent the fans overboard but yeah we are just friends," he says as Jimmy brings out his band.

"Well, we heard you had a new song for us tonight. Are you gonna be able to play it for us," jokes Jimmy as Liam gets up and practices stretching to make the crowd laugh.

"Yeah this one is called Good Riddance and I wrote it last week for a special someone and I'm super excited for everyone to hear it," says Liam as he is clearly drunk.

Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
So make the best of this test, and don't ask why
It's not a question, but a lesson learned in time

It's something unpredictable
But in the end, it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs and still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf in good health and good time
Tattoos of memories, and dead skin on trial
For what it's worth, it was worth all the while

It's something unpredictable
But in the end, it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable
But in the end, it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable
But in the end, it's right
I hope you had the time of your life

After playing the song the crowd cheers as Jimmy played it effortlessly as the crowd was shocked how even drunk he didn't miss a beat. He walks off stage as he needs assistance. "Yeah buddy you definitely drank way too much tonight," says his security guard as they walk him down the halls.

"I didn't name drop Tessa did I," he asks as his guard shakes his head no.

Tessa who is at home and watched the whole thing live is being interrogated an hour later by Matthew who is freaking out over the performance. "He likes you Tessa did you not just watch that performance? He was drunk before he even got on stage," says Matthew as Tessa tries to play it cool.

"Maybe it could be about Mach you never know," she states as Matthew isn't having it.

"No I'm telling you I've heard his music recently and I've seen the pictures of you guys on tour and then him with his model girlfriends. He looks at you differently than he does them," says Matthew as Tessa knows he is right.

"I don't know what you want me to say I can't control him," she says as Matthew is flipping out.

"Well, you need to tell him to stop embarrassing you on live tv. Everyone who knows anything knows he wrote these songs about you. I've given him the benefit of the doubt for long enough. I might be dumb but I'm not stupid," he says as he catches on to Liam's feelings for Tessa.

"Matthew can we please not talk about this right now," she says as Matthew doesn't understand how she isn't mad.

"He is going to do an interview on live tv drunk, talking about you, and then he sings a song that is clearly about you and you're not angry," questions Matthew. "I think it is utter bullshit, plus he doesn't even come home because of work. He didn't come home because he was probably afraid to see me after he decided to go backstab me."

Tessa who is getting flooded with her emotions finally breaks down as she hangs up the phone. She screams out loud as tears begin to fall from her face. She lights up with texts from Matthew as she turns it off for the night. She goes to YouTube on her tv as she notices people have already made edits of them with his new song after it has only been out for an hour.

One video makes her feelings even worse as she cries at how happy she and Liam look in the video edit. The videos make her feel like they were right all along about her feelings for Liam. She also feels like she belongs with Matthew who was also right to be suspicious all along.

Ralph and Lauren sit in silence as they both start to think that maybe the song is about Tessa. Ralph doesn't dare question Liam doing Matthew like that as Lauren doesn't want to believe it either. They are secluded to their own thoughts as they both are shocked at what is happening.
