nepo baby

madeline's pov

"what news, i've already had an eventful morning"

"oh girl, i think you need to check it.  i'll send you the link" she hangs up and i check out messages.

madeline holmes the daughter of millionaire directors david and lauren miller.

you may know her as maya in the upcoming greta girwig coming of age horror film. a surprise new tallent. or so we thought.

being the daughter of directors the teen grew up on film sets. no wonder she has talent. it's rumoured her parents landed her roll......

okay bullshit!

from a crappy morning to this? are you fuckign kidding me dad. the comments were going off about how i'm a nepo baby. and soon i had the directors of this movie knocking at my door.

"is the news true?" greta asked and i nodded from my bed. this was so embarrassing. i didn't think it would matter.
"why do you seem scared shitless" she laughed and i stayed quiet.

"all this means is you need a pay rise because of your networth" sorry. how does that even work.

"im okay with what im getting"
"no like we have to do it"
"oh"

"why didn't you tell us?"
"i didn't think it mattered, im emancipated from them so i don't know why this information is coming out now" well i do. my dads petty

they left. business stuff to sort out and get groaned. "my day keeps getting better and better" i just wanted to cry again. or get drunk i really didn't care at this point.

"so who are you?" violet asked so dramatically.
"madeline may miller, 3 m's is really excessive"
"okay m&ms"
"violet"
"sorry" we both laughed and i was very thankful for her.

"my nanna was my best friend. she used to call me maddie-may and i thought it was my full first name. not madeline. really confused the kindy workers" i smiled. thinking about her.

"that's why i changed my last name to holmes since it was her maiden name she kept even when marrying my grandfather you would have loved her"

"if she's anything like you im sure i would have"
"i don't know what i would do without you"
"probably be drinking 50 coffees a day and have a higher ego in mario cart"
"that is true"

after a bit we walked onto set and i could feel people staring at me. violet intertwined her pinky with mine which was her telling me shes here for me.

i was so glad all our scenes were together today.

"hey girls" scarlett greeted in passing as she was rushing to her next scene. we shouted hey back but she was already gone.

we did our scenes and she kept me distracted all day. i couldn't stomach anything right now. the sickness in my stomach form today restricting me.

work finished at 2pm as it was only a short day. scarlett had been checking up on me all day and she was just the sweetest.

when i was all alone in my bed at home. i dealt with all the messages i got. caleb was calling me a bunch of names but also apologising but also blaming me.

i blocked him. i was over him. i couldn't put myself through loving him again when this is what happens.

nola was pleading with me. my other friends were just surprised my parents were famous. they didn't care. my school is full of kids with famous parents they were just shocked.

our girls groupchat had a few chats and it was nola asking if anyone had talked to me today. when they hadn't i started gettting mentions.

i felt with all the people i knew before tacking the ones i don't.

on my instagram i put up a story of just a black screen. 

you can believe what you want but i auditioned for this part at my school. i don't live with my parents they didn't even know i did it and no one  on the team knew they were my parents. i go by my grandmothers maiden name. so call me a nepo baby. but that is not why i got this role.

yknow what i did next. i went out to the metal bins outside and grabbed a lighter and fire extinguisher. with caleb's things and the matching sets i threw them in the bin and set them on fire.

i watched them burn.

destructive i know but u was a peace. i put it out. public arson? i think but it was down the back of my apartment no one even saw.

i made sure it was fully out and stayed an extra few minutes to make sure it was still out
i then went upstairs and cleaned my entire apartment. i got rid of anything that didnt bring me happiness.

considering i didnt have a lot in here i didnt have that much to clear out. but i had a bit of clothes and memorabilia.

there was a knock at the door and i called for them to come in hoping it wasn't an opp. violet walked in with 2 bags of taco bell and set them on my kitchen bench.

"spring cleaning?" she questioned pulling the food out.

"yes" i said walking over to her. "did i ever tell you i love you" i said thanking her. she brought me food without me even asking.

food is a love language i don't care what anyone says.
i've gone from being sad to being angry. i didn't think i would go through the stages of grief this quickly.

knowing me ill drop tomorrow but its my day off so does it really matter.

after dinner i recruited her to help me re arange my furniture before saying she could leave if she wanted.

she didn't and kept me company on my couch. i cleaned and put everything into bags before joining her on the couch.

it's 9pm and i was so drained from today. emotionally now physically from my running around my apartment.

i pulled a blanket over myself and violet was watching little women on my account.

my heart ached.

i just felt really bad. but having violet here was good. i didn't even have to ask her which was even better.

i fell asleep not to long later.
