I'm going to start putting little notes in my chapters, anyway the past few chapters have been written poorly and I am sorry for that.

Mariah lied awake in the bed next to Michael. They were still at his family's house and Mariah was really hitting it off with them, however all she could focus on was writing songs.
She felt like the rug could be pulled from under her at any moment so she wanted to hurry up and get this first album out so at least she'd have something out there that she could maybe fall back on in case this relationship didn't work out because she damn sure wasn't going back to live with Marvin and her mother.
Mariah started to revise the lyrics she had written down on the same black notebook that had the golden butterfly in the center.
Once again we sit in silence
After all is said and done
Only emptiness inside us
Baby look what we've become
We can make a million promises but we still won't change
It isn't right to stay together
When we only bring each other pain
I don't wanna cry
I don't wanna cry
Nothing in the world could take us back to where we used to be
Though I've given you my heart and soul
I must find a way of letting go cause baby
I don't wanna cry
The song was sort of about how her relationship with her mother but she wrote it as if she was talking about some lover.
Through the years Mariah and her mother hadn't really had a rocky relationship and though Mariah knew Patricia loved her she often wondered how much.
No mother in they're right mind would stay with a man who did what Marvin did to Mariah, but she did. She only ever intervened when Marvin went to far.
Nonetheless Mariah loved her mother she just questioned her decisions.

"Come on Mariah!" Janet yelled excitedly. Mariah slowly dragged herself out of the bed tiredly, she was hoping Janet would exit for a few minutes so she could get Just Five more minutes.
Mariah was still warming up to the family but she could tell Janet was pretty fond of her to say the least.
So far the family really took a liking to Mariah, they could sense that she wasn't some vulture just trying to be with Michael because of his riches and fame.
Joseph kind of side eyed her though after Michael said she wanted to be a singer however once he saw that she was quickly trying to change the subject he knew she wasn't an opportunist as he originally thought.
Janet pulled Mariah by her limb and dragged her off the bed playfully. Mariah sighed and picked herself off of the floor. "Alright I'm up, now where are we going?" She asked.
A smile spread across Janet's face. "It's a surprise... Michael told us to tell you that."
Surprise? What kind of surprise? She questioned.
Janet walked Mariah out to the car and Mariah got in. Rebbie was in the drivers seat and Latoya was in the passengers seat. "Aw hell nah Toya get in the back, I wanna sit in the front." Janet said.
Latoya rolled her eyes. "Jan sit in the back."
Janet sighed and sat in the back next to Mariah. "Y'all two just treat me like a damn child." Janet said angrily and crossed her arms while she mean-mugged Latoya.
"Janet now you know there is no reason to get that upset about a seat in a car." Rebbie commented.
"Whatever." Janet scoffed.
Eventually they arrived at they're destination however Mariah was confused as to where they were. "Where are we?" She asked.
"You'll see," Latoya replied as she unbuckled her seatbelt and excitedly got out of the car.
Mariah followed the three into the building still completely and utterly confused. Once they walked a little farther into the building they saw Michael standing with a bunch of people.
"Hey Michael." Mariah greeted.
He smiled. "Since you've gotten a record deal, I've decided to get you a team of people to fulfill whatever needs you may have." Michael explained.
Mariah pulled Michael into a hug. "Thank you." She replied with a wide smile on her face.
"Your welcome, now let me introduce you."
He grabbed her hand and directed her around the room. "This is Anne... she's going to be your personal assistant."
Mariah smiled at the short white woman with dark brown hair and bluish gray eyes. "It's nice to meet you." Mariah said and shook the woman's hand.
"Nice to meet you to, Mrs. Carey." Anne replied.
"Oh please just call me Mariah."
Mariah continued to walk around and meet the rest of the people Michael hired, she still felt like somehow she was going to wake up from this dream.
