[Vienna] I don't even want to talk about looking for a front man I mean it was horrible. But thankfully  we didn't have to look for long.

"Well it took forever but she's finally asleep." Billy says walking back into the main room as Vienna rested her head on Karen's shoulder.

"Woo go Billy!" Vienna laughed as everyone cheered.

"Now come and have some fun!" Karen told him.

"Look," Billy says "I'd like to play something for you if you're open to it. I understand if your not."

"Yes definitely." Vienna jumps up, "I mean,right you guys?"

"No." Eddie says his cigarette is hanging from his mouth. "I mean you can't just walk back in here like nothing happened."

"Hey Eddie I say this with love and care,shut up." Vienna says.

"Oh come on he can't do this! Right? You can't just walk back in here like nothing ever happened." Eddie retorts.

"You're right." Billy sighs. "I'm sorry. I'm just gonna go check up on Julia."

"No you're not." Vienna says before he can leave. "Fuck what  Eddie says. Or what they say I want to hear it."

[Interviewer] Why did you care so much after everything he'd done that hurt you?

[Vienna] I ask myself that a lot. Ya know? I mean but, when you're on the outside looking in you think to yourself, obviously that's when it's time to go and you cut ties with that person. I think I just cared, still care, too much about people for my own good.

"Why'd you do that?"

Vienna was the only person in the living room once 4am rolled around. Her brain was filled with too much to fall asleep.

"Do what?" Vienna asks looking up to see her oldest brother in the doorway.

"I mean why didn't you want me to stay out of the band? I probably hurt you and Graham more than I hurt anyone didn't I?"

"You did." She told him.

"You're really confusing Vienna you know that?"

She laughs "I do. But I mean it's not like you're going to do it again. You massively fucked up Billy. I won't lie to you and tell you I've recovered from it. I haven't and you can't expect me to. Not now or anytime soon. Me,Graham,Camilla or anyone. Like I said it was your fuck up. But" 

"What?"

"I don't know."

"What do you mean you don't know?"

"I don't know why I'm forgiving but I am. Be grateful for that. And please,don't fuck it up."
