"Hey!" I looked up as Vanessa stormed to me angrily. "Put the fucking drink down." I furrowed my eyebrows as she took my beer and tossed it onto the grass.

"Babe, what the fuck?" She grabbed my computer from my lap before raising it up. "I'm working on beats right now, what are you doing?"

"You care about your music, huh?" I reached forward and she pulled back. "Answer the question."

"Well yeah- no!" She raised it above her head before launching it into the pool. I quickly ran in fully clothed and dove into the water to retrieve it.

When I resurfaced, she walked to me briskly before leaning down.

"That's exactly how Dana feels, watching you throw what you had away like it's trash and for what? A buzz?" I set the computer on the concrete as I pushed my wet hair back. She grabbed the front of my wet shirt and pulled me forward before speaking, "She might not know how to handle you, but I do. You're going to fix your shit or you won't be seeing your babies or me for a long fucking time."

She let go of my shirt with a huff before raising her foot and stomping on my apple laptop until it was basically unrecognizable. When she finished, she let out a heavy sigh before nodding to herself then walking back into the house.

What in the actual fuck just happened?

"Who are you most excited to be going on tour with?" A fan asked. I shifted the grocery bags before smirking. "Oh come on, please?"

"They're gonna kill me but what the heck? I'll have to say G-eazy and Bear because they're like my big brothers lately." I let out as I looked up at the clear sky.

"Ty is there opening right? Will Lauren be there?" I chuckled before shaking my head.

"Um I don't know, maybe? I know Halsey will be there for sure. G and her can't stay away from each other." I rolled my eyes at the thought of the lovey doves couple.

"Will Vanessa be there? Or Dana?"

I stiffened slightly at the mention of my manag- uh former manager.

"Probably not. I have a tour manager this time so she wouldn't need to be there." They pouted and made sad noises as I shifted awkwardly. "Yeah, I gotta go though so make sure you guys get out of this heat." I gave them a smile and some a few hugs as I walked back to my Range.

I dropped the bags into the passenger seat before climbing in and starting my car. Vanessa was forcing me to cook dinner before I started tour tomorrow to 'keep me from partying'. Tyrone was having a pre tour party and of course I had to turn it down or Vanessa would've beat the shit out of me. I was starting to almost fear her on the same level as my mom..not quite though. I could probably handle a yelling from Nessa, my mom on the other hand would shake, break, and make me cry.

I remember the first time I decided to talk back to my mom. Let's just say I had a hand print on the side of my face almost half a month my sophomore year of high school. To get out of teasing, I told my classmates that my girl got rough and slapped me on accident. Of course then Vivian and Nylah has to tell the entire school the truth. But Ellie comforted me and made them shut up because she was a senior and everyone listened to her. God..Ellie. I didn't realize how much I missed her.

I grabbed my phone out of impulse and dialed her number.

Hi it's Elizabeth or Melissa or Ellie if I know you. I'm sorry I couldn't get to the phone right now- Y/nn that's not a toy! Vivian no! Sorry, I probably didn't answer because I'm dealing with kiDs-
