june 2024. real life.

things seemed pretty good, almost too good to be true. kylie's tour was off to an amazing start, playing sold out arenas each night. she was accompanied by her best friends, and the love of her life. tonight was her miami show, which meant bustling night life for the crew.

"so after the show, there's this club that looks pretty fun," nick said showing the group his phone.

"only like half of us are 21," joey laughed, "not even you."

nick rolled his eyes, "it's 18+ to get in, checkmate asshole."

everyone agreed for the post show plans, when in miami, you might as well. kylie however, had been so focused on what would come next for her career. she looked at her life for inspiration, and what to write about. joyous love songs were a lot harder to finish then depressing, gut wrenching lyrics.

kylie excused herself from the room, and walked outside. chris noticed the girls mannerisms, and slid out to see her.

"ky?"

"yeah?"

"whats going on?"

"nothing, i just needed some air and some space."

"oh, ok," chris turned to leave, "did i do something?"

"no chris, its not you. its just overwhelming, everything you know."

"i know. but you have me, you have our friends, an incredible career. its your dreams."

"i know, but that doesn't mean this isn't a lot. im so happy all the time now, but i also feel like i cant be sad. i feel ungrateful on the days i have to fake my smile but im still just as fucked up inside. im happy, i have everything I've ever wanted. i just don't know when ill feel okay."

"ky, have you told your therapist this?"

"yeah and she wants to change my medication but i can't do that right now. the one she wants to try might fuck my sleeping habits, or make me even worse. or lead to weight gain.. and we know what happened last time people commented on my life. maybe im not cut out for any of this."

"i love you, and we will figure this out. i think you need to try the new meds and see if it helps. i'll help you deal with anything else," chris was now holding kylie, "i love you."

kylie nodded, "i love you."

"tonight you will have a great show, and then after we will go have so much fun. and if after your show, you want to leave and skip the club, then sure. we will leave no questions asked."
