In this chapter, I made everything in the magazine up. If that does not make sense now, it will later. None of it is true. I'm sorry for any mistakes, it has not been edited, I just wanted to get this chapter out early.

"What?!" Katherine gasps, taking her eyes off of the computer screen.
"I… uh…" I stutter. I could have sworn that we dropped Dani while she was doing a trust fall. " Didn't we have to stop filming because Christina thought that Dani had a concussion..?"
"You remembered something!" Amy cheers.
"It's nothing." I look down at my shoes.
"Hey. At least you remembered something." Dani gives me a convincing smile.
"Guys can you keep it down? I have a massive headache." Christina comes in, rubbing her eyes while holding her head.
"Lauren remembered when they dropped Dani at the park during our One Thing video!" Katherine says with a smile.
"Really?!" Christina's eyes lights up as she runs over.
"But that's all I can remember though.." I sigh, not letting my voice get too loud.
"But you remembered something! That's great Lolo!" Christina embraces me in a hug. I don't hug back, but something lurks on her breath. I gasp for air, the aroma becoming the only thing I can smell. I start to tense up, causing her to retreat quickly. I look up at her, seeing her face fall.
"So you remembered something with Dani, right?" I nod, not knowing what to do. "Right.. I'm going back upstairs. She turns, her voice changes in tone as she spoke to us. I hear her bedroom door slam shut, footsteps following it.
"What's going on with her?" I turn my attention back to the girls.
Amy opens her mouth to say something but stops dead in her tracks. She shakes it off and gives me a smile. "Its nothing." I nod, not believing anything that she just told me.
"Do you guys wanna go watch a movie?" Katherine shuts the laptop and puts it on the table in front of her.
Everyone muffled a 'no' and made their way out of the room. "I guess." I give Katherine a smile.

I wake up in a sudden haze. Everything was dark, only the TV illuminated the room. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I must have fallen asleep during the movie. I look over to my right, to see Katherine asleep on the loveseat. I slowly make my way to her, pressing the middle button on the phone in her hands. The phone lit up, showing the time, 12:56. I smile, making my way back to the couch. I might as well sleep down here, I don't want to wake the others. Without looking, I fell onto the coffee table, knocking over china and some magazines.
I let out a groan and hurried to pick up the items. I picked up the magazines one by one, putting them in a nice stack. I pick up the final magazine, a People Magazine with… Cimorelli? I smile to myself and put the others on the table and look at the front page of the People. We all look so happy. I look away from the middle of the magazine, a picture of us smiling together, to the side coloumns. My smile drops and my heart starts racing. It can't be…
Magazine in hand, I run to the bathroom and lock the door behind me. I take a closer look and what I saw earlier was right. I read down the columns: Cimorelli pregnant scare? Assaults? Rehab encounters? Has fame changed the Cimorelli family forever?
What pregnancy scare? Assaults?! This can't be right. None of this. I flip aimlessly through the pages until I found a certain face plastered on a full page. Katherine, I read on the bottom right caption, the second oldest of the band, Cimorelli, caught doing drugs at their recent after party.
It can't be Katherine. This is not right. She would never do this. Ever. I flipped to the next page to find "When will Cimorelli crash and burn?" I don't read the article, but I stare intently at each picture. Dani - assault, earning her a night in prison? Christina - drinking her pain away?! Amy- Verbally assaulting the other members of the band? I shook at the last one, Lisa- pregnant? The article left it at that, only showing a picture of her and her "baby bumps".
I can't take this anymore. I throw the magazine, hitting and breaking the picture frames on the wall. The glass shattering everywhere. They lied to me. Families don't act this way. I knew never to trust these girls, but I didn't know that they were bad like this.
