I CHANGED THE TITLE..SO ITS STILL CHAPTER 9 tanks so much for reading!!! 🖤

"Coachella time!" Grayson smiled, going through the 3 outfits he'd prepared for the event." I smiled at him, and looked at the outfit i picked out.

@Lifestruggles tweeted: Is this outfit okay?

I looked at it one more time before sighing. Ethan and Grayson told me to embrace my leg but i can't yet, the sadness behind it, the synthetic look just makes me grunt in frustration. "You okay?" Grayson asked, grabbing his Day 1 outfit. "Yeah, i just want to look nice." I weakly smiled, playing with my fingers.

"Don't worry, all the attention will be on you!" I smiled at him, and grabbed my dress. "Alright, i'm gonna get ready." I said, ushering out the room, and closing the door.

I tried on my dress, and fell in love. The hymn of the dress sat perfectly on my synthetic knee, my hair was tucked in a high bun, my makeup ever so natural. This feeling of confidence, felt stupendous, electrifying..i couldn't help but laugh.

Someone lightly tapped on the door, and asked to come in. "Come in Eth." He walked in, and we both stared at each other. His red and black flannel fit his muscular physique so well..before i could continue pointing out his look. Grayson walked in, and i melted, i was shook, i was weak!

"Oh my!" I said, letting my left hand latch onto my right elbow, in a feeling of shyness. I couldn't help but blush at their "perfection" and we have 3 days!

"You look.."

"Stunning." Grayson cut him off by biting his lip a little. "Thanks, and you guys look..bomb." I said giving into a little chuckle.

"Thanks we try." Ethan smirked, i shook my head and laughed. My cheeks are gonna be forever red, I can't stop blushing. "Give me a second, i need to uhh, do some girl stuff." I smiled, waiting for them to single file walk out the room.

I was about to fix my bra when i heard Vanessa again. Her breathing hitched a little when she touched me. "Vanessa." I smiled, giving into another embrace, but she pushed me off. "Roni, help me i'm scared please help me." She cried. Her lips trembled in fear as she looked around.

"I'm scared Roni." She looked at me, scars and bruises appeared on her face, and i gasped in shock. "I don't know what to do tell me!" I whispered, and yelled at the same time, a lonely tear falling from my eyes, massacre coming with it.

"WAKE ME UP!" She disappeared as i heard a fit of laughter erupt from the other side of the door. I wiped the tear from my eye, fixed my makeup, and straightened myself up.

How do i wake her up? How do i save her? The bigger question is...Is this real?

"Hey guys." I said, but my voice came out a little raspy, and groggy, i tried laughing but it didn't work. "You okay?" Cameron said walking towards me. "Yeah why?" I said, biting the inside of my cheek. "Your crying?" Grayson replied patting my shoulder.

I brought my shaking hand to my face, and wiped of the wet tears. When did this happen? "Oh, i don't know why i'm fine." I smiled. I gave them a reassuring smile, and they smiled back. "You guys ready!" Ethan yelled. "COACHELLA HERE WE COME!" Grayson added but it came out as a terrible, and embarrassing voice crack.

We laughed, and walked out the house. Everyone was smiling, and getting hype, but the only thing on my mind was Vanessa.

AT COACHELLA

"We here guys." Grayson smiled, as he parked the car. I took a deep breathe, and i hopped out, immediately adjusted my leg.

"You look beautiful don't worry." I smiled, at Camerons compliment, and stopped fiddling with my outfit. "Thanks you too."

Then we were immediately ambushed by Grayson and Ethan's fans.

So me, and Cameron walked off to the side, admiring Ethan and Grayson's connection with them. Then something happened, that broke my heart..a young girl stood on her tippy toes, and kissed Grayson on his lips.

He just stood there, and let her melt into the kiss, before Ethan had to kindly step in. I just looked at him. He was smiling at the girl, and she was smiling at him. I heard her say sorry, but he just said it was okay. "I love you." She waved off to Grayson, and he smiled back, and said, "I love you more." I died on the inside.

I watched as he continued to say goodbye to his fans. Why do I care? It's not like were dating. But deep down I knew why I cared, I was jealous, I wanted to just slap that blonde headed girl in her face. "Hey you ready?" Cam nudged me.

I looked up at her, and nodded my head smiling. "You okay." She whispered as we neared Grayson, and Ethan. "Yep..happy..excited." I shouted. I looked kinda stupid but in this moment I didn't care.

"Hey girls." Grayson smiled at both of us. "Hey Gray..i saw you with that sl..girl." I corrected myself. Everyone looked at me weird but i just sighed and gestured towards the pizzeria. "Anyone want pizza?"

"I'm down." Ethan said, starting to walk towards the pizza place. "Hey umm Roni." I cut Grayson off by grabbing his bicep. He's cut, ripped, muscular. Every word that can describe fit is in his arms.

"It doesn't matter, i don't care." I giggled, letting go of our eye contact and continuing to walk towards the parlor.

But deep down we all knew, i wasn't fine, i was envious...
