Almost Famous (Machine Gun Kelly)

47

1 week later:

When you think of falling for someone. You think of two things.

1. Do you think it will go anywhere?

2. Do you actually want the love you're receiving?

With Colson I didn't need to think of these things, only because he showed me daily of what I wanted. Someone who cares, someone who can talk to me as a friend as well as something closer, and someone who will protect me with everything he has.

Today has been a nightmare.

"Colson Baker moved on pretty quick after the breakup with ex fiance Megan. Who is the new one and why don't we have the details".

The mind process while handling this situation was something I never thought I needed media training on. I was just a part of his insurance, I was just one of the aids for him. Why and how did this go so far?

"How do you think it makes me look Emily"! Chris yells into the phone.

I sat in the hotel room, alone while Colson and the others went to a private show downtown. According to Brian, I needed to lay low.

"Nothing is happening Chris, so none of this should he effecting you". I sighed and took another grape from the bowel of room service.

"You don't understand. I can't even bring Ava this week. They have my house surrounded with fucking cameras. I knew this job was a bad idea". He hissed.

I rolled my eyes and sat up, pushing the tray table away from me.

"Did you think I wouldn't find out? Fuck Emily. We have a daughter"!

"I know we do. I birthed her remember, oh right you don't because you chose not to show up because the fucking football game was on"! I yelled back.

A moment of silence was set in place as I paced the room, waiting for the comeback.

"You're done. I'm flying out, leaving Ava with my mom. You're going to sign the custody papers. You can enjoy your new, almost famous life with that prick."

And with that he hung up, leaving me in a puddle of tears. Its been a while since I've had a good cry, especially at three in the morning. I threw my phone on the couch, pulling at my hair.

What the hell was I going to do? Chris was persistent, annoying and just down right mean. He'll bring those papers with one of his good fucking pens too.

"Honey were home"!

I turned to see Rook and Sophie walking in, then Brian and Ashley.

"Hey". I said, quickly wiping my eyes.

"Kells is in his room. He had to change". Slim said once he walked in.

"Babe, have you been crying"? Sophie asked as she sat next to me.

I huffed and wiped my eyes again.

"No. Just a little stressed over the article".

It wasn't just that. It was everything.

"I know how you feel. When Kells and her broke up the first time, they came after me. Telling me I ruined the relationship. My fiance was furious with the media and wanted me to quit."

I turned to her. "How did you handle it"? I asked.

"By living my life, the way God intended me to. I knew I was good for this job, and I wasn't taking no for answer. I made sure to show the world that i did nothing and they eventually forgot about it."
