"Ready for tonight Gracie? Last London show!" Gracie's manager, Alex, asks. Gracie was sat at her vanity table finishing up her makeup for the night. Morgan was sat on the sofa on the other side of the room wiping her lens.
"Yep! I am 100% ready" Gracie replies as she smiles at her finished reflection. Alex catching Morgan staring at Gracie with googly eyes and smirks to herself, something is definitely going on between these two, she thought to herself.
"Hey Alex, is it okay if I head outside the venue and take a quick video of all the fans lining up outside? I think it'd be cool for Gracie's Instagram" Morgan says as they stand up with their camera in hand.
"Oh, yeah, of course! That's a great idea!" Alex replies with a smile and a thumbs up.
"Thank you. See you out there Tiny" Morgan grins before leaving the room.
"Tiny?" Alex questions with a humorous look on her face.
"Don't even start" Gracie laughs before checking over her hair.

"Look it's Gracie's photographer!" Morgan hears a couple people shout, waving at her with a smile. Morgan only smiles back. She then starts to film all of Gracie's excited fans, going down the queue of people. She gets halfway down before she hears a voice she hasn't heard in 17 years.
"Hey squirt" Morgans halts in her tracks, "please turn around" her brother continues, angering her slightly.
"What do you think you're doing here?" Morgan says as she quickly turns around and rushes towards him.
"Hey, hey, calm down" her brother laughs slightly before taking in her angry and serious expression, "what? No hug for your dear older brother?" He asks as he opens his arms out, his words slurring slightly.
"You left me" at this point, the doors for the venue had opened and the fans were being let in, "you left me alone in that HELL HOLE! YOU SAID YOU WOULD COME BACK FOR ME?! WHY DIDNT YOU COME BACK FOR ME?!!"
"I tried to! Believe me, I did! But you would've been too much of a handful for me! I thought you were better off with them!"
"You know that's not true! Do you know what you running away put me through?! I was constantly blamed as being the reason why you left. Do you have any idea what that feels like?!" Morgan shouts at him, tears threatening to fall down her.
"Well.. I-"
"No! You don't! And don't tell me that you do cause I sure as hell know you don't. So don't even start with all that crap!" Morgan's shoves his chest as angery tears fall from her eyes. Adam just takes it before letting out a scoff and shaking his head. By now the streets were empty and the first act had started.
"Dad told me you would've reacted this way. He was so hyped up on drugs I didn't know he was being serious" Adam says before taking a bottle wrapped in a brown paper bag from his pocket, taking a large swig. That's when Morgan notices. His balance being off, words slurring and bloodshot eyes. He was drunk and high.
"Oh what the fuck..." Morgan sighs as she drops her head.
"What?! What have I done now?!" Adam shouts, getting defensive.
"Look at yourself. You're a fucking mess, Adam! Just like dad" Morgan whispers the last part underneath her breath hoping he wouldn't hear.
"What was that last part? Say it again! Come on!!" Adam keeps shouting as he stumbles his way towards Morgan. This catches the eye of the security a few minutes away at the doors to enter the venue.
"I said you're a fucking mess! Just like dad!!" Morgan shouts before feeling a sharp punch go across her left cheek, then her right. She feels blood start to run from her nose, down her face and landing on her white hoodie. Morgan stumbles back slightly before lunging towards him. Before she could make any contact she feels a pair of arms grab her and pull her away. Gracie's security.
"Hey, get off me!" Morgan's shrugs them off before turning towards Adam.
"Never contact me again. I don't want you in my life. Not now. Not ever. You understand me?!" Morgan shouts at him with a shaky voice, tears falling down her face.
"Yes ma'am" he replies with a laugh before turning around and stumbling away from the area.
"Gracie's onstage soon. You might wanna get inside" the security guard informs her.
"Oh shit" Morgan says. They quickly wipe the blood from their nose and the tears from their eyes before they hurry inside and take their place over the barriers and infront of the stage.
