The next day, I woke up early and went into Chelsea's room. She wasn't lying when she said she was tired becaus she slept HEAVILY !! I took out her slutty clothing and threw it away, Anything even related to her "new job" went straight into the trash. I rearranged her house to look like how it used to when she was still herself. I called her old boss and, faking her voice, asked for her job back. It actually worked, surprisingly. She was supposed to go to work at 2 pm, so I woke her up at 9 am so she could see her old life coming into her house.

I shook her and yanked her hair to wake her up and finally, she did,

Me: Chelsea, wake up, it's time for work.

Chelsea: Nawwh, I just do my job at night, but if you met someone cute who's willing to pay a little extra-

Me: NO! That's not your job anymore. You are going back to working at the bank!

Chelsea. What the fuck? No Im not..

Me: yes, you are. I called your boss and begged for your job back. Your shift starts at two.

Chelsea: sorry, sister. But I don't do that anymore,

Me: Yes you do. You are not gonna continue your life being a prostitute. You are going back to working at the fucking bank and when you get back, you're gonna get checked out at the doctors' got it?? Now go sober up.

Chelsea: Lex.. Wait, Lex!? It's you!!

Me: uh, yeah. It's me, Lexi.

Chelsea pulled me into a huge hug. Usually, I'd hug her back, but she smelled too much like beer and piss.

Me: ok, now go take a shower. You smell horrible.

Chelsea didn't reply. She just walked drunkily into the bathroom and I heard the shower go on. She didn't come out for hours. When I came to check on her, I heard no reply, just the water. When I opened the door, she wasn't there, and the bathroom window was wide open.

Shit.

A few hours later, my dad called.

Dad: Lexi?

Me: yeah ?

Dad: how are ya, pumpkin?

Me: good, I guess

Dad: any progress with Chels?

Me: no.

Dad: well, I got a call this morning.

Me: cool.

Dad: from the director of King of Queens

Me: really!?

Dad: yeah and he wants you to try out for the part of Ashley, insisting you'd be great for the part.

Me: for real!?!

Dad: yes, for real. I told him sure since it was such a great opportunity.

Me: YES THANK YOU !!!

Dad: and don't worry about Chelsea, I hired some specialists to come and help her through this time. But you need to be in LA tomorrow for your audition.

Me: oh ok. I didn't unpack or anything yet, so that'll be easy.

Dad: yeah and your brother and I will be leaving next week so you're gonna be in LA for a while, ok?

Me: no problem. I have friends there I could stay with.

Dad: yeah, That's good. Ok so you're good with all this?

Me: perfect.

Dad: alright.

And when he hung up, I ran over to Sahana's house to tell her everything. Leah and Sahana helped me practice the audition script my dad emailed me.

My character was supposed to be Ashley, the friend of Adrienne and part of Tears of Swag. I was the first one to be okay with Adrienne's romance with Austin, even though he was from the opponent's band.

Me: alright. This character seems easy. Yeah, I could play her.

Leah: alright do this line again.

Me: Mmkay... ~I understand that you love him, I really do. It takes no mind to love someone. It takes a heart, and no thoughts. It isn't your fault. Obviously he loves you too. But this is gonna be a problem with the band and the contest. Don't let love make you do stupid things, okay? I trust you.~

Leah: that was great !!

Sahana: that's amazing. Hey, when you get there, can you give this to Prod?

She handed me a small box.

Me: sure.

I didn't ask what it was, I just put it away and planned to do as she said.
