What Happens In A Small Town

Chapter Seven

B R A N T L E Y

Kelsey walks into the little lounge area they have backstage for the other acts to wait around in, where everyone but Cole and the bands, for the most part, I see the shock on Kolby's face as he sees her "Holy shit" then mama grabs him by the ear "ow! Mama" 

"Kolby Porter watch your mouth"

I see Kels bite her lip and I have to avert my eyes from her because of what seein her doin that does to me, Kolbs gets up from his seat and wraps Kel's in a hug "my god Little Bit, it's been way too long"

She rolls her eyes, she has always hated being called Little Bit "I hate that name so much" he smirks at her "not my fault you're so tiny" oh little brother you are playing with fire right now but something tells me he already knows that "you're a giant Kolbs, almost everyone is tiny to you"

Then mama catches sight of Kels "Kelsey Nicole" even though it's no use she tries to hide behind Kolbs but he shakes his head glances back at her "I don't think so Little Bit" he moves out of the way leaving Mama  standing there with her arms crossed over her chest as she walks over to where Kels is standing by the door then she grabs her by the ear like she did Kolbs a few minutes ago "Ow!"

"So, Kelsey Nicole you wanna tell me why this is the first time I've seen or spoken to you in 8 years?" She lets out a nervous little laugh I know that she ain't scared of much but Mama when she's pissed definitely makes the cut of things that scare her and everyone else on that front too then she starts tryin to explain it to Mama as vaguely as possible "well you see mama Becky... After everything that happened, I-I didn't think it was a good idea for me to come around"

Mama finally let's go of her ear "well you could have at least called once in a while" she pulls her into a hug, after a minute she pulls back "oh look at you still so beautiful... you haven't changed a bit"

Kels and Kolbs lock eyes as little brother smirks at her "well now that wasn't so bad was it Kels?"

She glares at him but of course, baby brother doesn't pay her any mind just smirks at her "I haven't seen your face that pale since that one time that mama and I caught you and-" she cuts him off "that is enough Kolby Porter, don't make me come over there and beat you.... because we both know that I will"

He chuckles still smirking at her "you think you scare me Little Bit?" 

She narrowed her eyes "I'll show you scary when you have to dislodge my foot from your-"  she glances over a mama not wanting to get in more trouble than she already is with mama before finishing her sentence "backside"

I shake my head at Kolby oh little brother you are in trouble now. Their staredown is interrupted by Kelsey's phone ringing she answers as Kolby smirks "Still not scared of you Little Bit"

After she gets out of the room I look at Kolby "you are playing with fire right now little brother... she's going to kill you"  

He shrugs "I can take Little Bit" 

I chuckle "I wouldn't count on it Kolbs, she likes to play dirty sometimes"

The smirk on his face grows "oh BG you'd know all about that wouldn't you bro?" I shake my head "just don't look to me for help when she tries to kill you"

Luke is the one that questions him "what are you talking about?" He smirks again "oh she might actually kill me for this but it'll be worth it as payback... For well I'll find something to make it payback for" then he looks at Luke "Kelsey and B used to date... When they were teenagers, up until 8 years ago, which is what mama was talking about earlier... not having seen Kels since they broke up"

Ben walks in the room not having seen Kels yet, well that should be fun to see Ben, and the boys have always seen her like she was their little sister.

Kels walks back into the room and sees Ben and smirks "well since the cat is probably out of the bag now...... Ben, you owe me a hundred bucks" he turns towards her voice and he grins at her  "and why do I owe you money Kelsey Reed?"

She smirks at him "the bet" 

I look between the two of them not knowing what they're talkin about "what's the bet?" 

Kelsey laughs looking over at me "you don't need to worry about that..." then turns back to Ben "but that thing you swore up and down that I wouldn't do? Well I did it and now you owe me $100"

Ben shakes his head in denial "there is no way you did it" 

She smirks "oh Benny Boy but I did" I don't even know what the hell they're talking about but whatever bet they made doesn't even surprise me they were always betting on something.

Ben looks smug shaking his head at her "No way I don't believe you.... prove it Kels, show it to me" she smirks and lifts her shirt up and turns to the side where he can see and my mouth drops open seeing the tattoo on her ribs.

Her having a tattoo isn't surprising because I know she has a few already what it says is what's surprising.

*****

This was basically what happened in the last few chapters but just from BG's POV Ohhh so it is almost revealed what Ben said Kels wouldn't get tattoed but she clearly did lol it gets revealed what the tattoo says in the next chapter.
