When I got home from talking with Carl for about 4 whole hours, it was about 10:30, and my parents were already in bed... They are getting old.

I went to my room and changed out of my dress into some spandex and a huge baggy shirt that used to be my Grand Dads. I threw my hair up in a messy bun and took off my make-up. I plugged my phone in and turned off my light. I crawled into bed and hid my face in my pillows. I pulled my duvea over my shoulder and tucked it in all around me. I don't think I've ever been this comfortable.

I was thinking about Carl, and I was thinking about his offer, and my contract. And I was thinking about what my parents would thin when I told them I had signed the contract without even talking to them first. I though about Troy, and how proud he would be that I'm finally living a life of music, like I had always wanted.

Sleep. Sleep. Sleep.

I tried to force sleep to fall upon me, but that was not working.

1, 2, 3...

Why am I even trying to count sheep? Who even came up with counting sheep, jumping over a fence to fall asleep? Like couldn't you have gone with something more original? Like... Whales jumping over mountains or something?

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall,

And all the kings horses and all the kings men, couldn't put Humpty Dumpty back together again.

Doesn't it seem wierd that he just fell off the wall? And egg, just fell. No no no. He was murdered! Murdered it tell you!

Down by the bay, where the Watermelon grow, back to my home, I dare not go, for if I do, my mother will say, "have you ever seen a whale with a polka dot tale?" Down by the bayyyyyyy.

Jesus Christ. I think of the strangest things when I'm trying to sleep.

Oh mr. Sandman! Can you come out me out like a light and into the night?

Fucking sandman. Get your shit together !

After quite some imaginative thinking, sleep finally took over me. And wow was that sleep needed.

******

I woke up that morning to the smell of pancakes and bacon.

Mmm. Moms making breakfast today!

I got out of bed and walked to the bathroom in my room, I plugged in my straightener, I walked into my closet and picked out a pair of high waisted shorts, with a winky face on the bum, and I shirt and grabbed a quarter sleeve belly shirt with the phases of the moon on it.

I pulled off my night shirt, and threw on my phases of the moon shirt. I kept the track shorts that I had slept in on, and went to the bathroom and straightened my hair, I braided my bangs and loosely pinned them to the side.

I went back into my room and pulled off my track pants, I grabbed my yellow winky shorts, when there was a soft knock at my door.

Knowing it was my mother, "come in!" Nope. Not my mother. "Troy! I got no pants on!" I giggled a bit

"I don't care!" He ran over and picked me up into a spinning hug. "How did your meeting with that guy go last night!?" He put me down and looked at me with his gorgeous brown eyes.

"Well, it was good. He offered me a great contract!" I smiled at him.

"And what did it say?"

"I'll tell you after ya shit head. You could at least me me get my pants on."

"Oh right. Sorry, I'll be in the kitchen" he started walking out of my room, but turned around and said "by the way, cute undies" he winked at me and shut my door,

"Jerk" I scoffed quietly to myself as I put my pants on. I went to the washroom yet again to do my hair and makeup. I was getting nervous about telling everyone about the contract..

Really nervous.

******

"So you signed the contract, did you at least read it all first?" My mom didn't seem mad, but she seemed concerned.

"Yes mom. I read all of it, and it was all very reasonable. I get a week off for Christmas break, and I get a three day-" my dad cut me off.

"Wait, break from what?"

"Hold on I'm getting there! Okay, so the contract I singed said that..." Dramatic pause, "I get to go on tour as an opening act!"

Cheers broke out around the room as Troy, his mom, his dad, my mom, and my dad, all came and hugged me. I was in the middle of a huge group hug.

"Sweety! That's amazing! I knew you would be recognized like this one day!" My mom started tearing up. I could tell she was really proud.

"What band do you get to open for?" Shyann, Troys mother asked.

"One direction! I know they aren't really one of the bands any of you really listen too, but it's still a huge opportunity for me!"

"It doesn't matter if any of us listen to them! That's still great! My little girl is going on tour!" My dad started tearing up as well. Oh great, the emotional parents.

"Alright alright, I think we should get some alcoholic drinks to celebrate." Mark, troys father said.

"Mark... It's 10 am" I said.

"Well then we'll wait till tonight. But we're all still drinking."

******

After I explained the contract and the plan a little bit more, everyone grew more fond of me going. Heck, they almost packed my bags for me.

They took me out for lunch, and I called a few friends and told them the news as well. And we al just had a celebratory day. It was good to have the closest people to me be there for me, and be proud of me. It felt good, and meant alot.

******

"SHOTS SHOTS, SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS, EVERYBODY!"

"Mark! That's the worst song ever!"

"I don't care! Shots for everyone! Jamie first!" He handed me a shot of tequila, then handed everyone else one.

"1, 2, 3 shoot!" Everyone drank their shots. And then Mark 'wooed' then he winked at Shyann. She nodded and went to the fridge, and pulled out an ice cream cake that read 'Congratulations Jamie!'

"Awe! You guys didn't have to do that!"

"You deserve it, and plus, we'll have so much left over cake we can have cake for breakfast. Now, Jamie," he cut a piece if cake and put it on a plate and handed it to me, "here's the first step to having a star in the family. Congratulations, we're all very proud of you."

Okay guys! This was kinda just a filler chapter ! Next chapter will have a bit of drama in it ! So be prepared! And I decided not to attach a pic of Jamie's car in this chapter cause she didn't use her car at all! So maybe in the next chapter.

Over 100 reads ! Thanks loves!! Read on!! :)
