June 20, 2019.

"So, did you know Cher was performing?" Jimmy asked me.

"I knew" I said. "I knew. We all knew. I was the co-host of it! I had to know"

"Well, congratulations" Jimmy said. "You kept it all a secret"

I smiled looking out at the audience. Yup, I was on the Tonight show promoting my single.

"Umm, speaking of secrets. I have to ask" Jimmy said.

I looked to him.

"Yes?" I asked, having a feeling what he was going to ask.

"You just announced you were going on tour yesterday" Jimmy said. "It starts in a month. Is there an album coming out before then?"

I smirked at him, playing coy.

"Maybe . . ." I said.

The audience laughed.

"Maybe?" Jimmy said. "It's a yes or no answer, Y/N!"

I blushed.

"It's a surprise" I said. "I'm not telling you when but yes. It's coming"

"Is it too soon to take bets when you're releasing it?" Jimmy said.

"I'll never tell!" I said, shaking my head.

Two days. That's when the album comes out. I was over the moon excited to release it and see everyone's reaction. I worked my ass off for it so it was all about the hype for me.

"Well, thank you for coming tonight" Jimmy said. "That's Y/N! We'll be back with her performing Anything Can Happen!"

Jimmy and I stood up from our seats. The audience clapped and cheered. I walked down the chairs and waved to the audience as I walked back behind the curtain. My band stood behind the curtain.

"I'll never tell?" Chris asked me. "You just said it was coming"

I rolled my eyes at him.

"Everyone knows it's coming" Billie said, strapping her guitar. "You expect us to keep singing the same songs on tour"

"That's not my point" Chris said. "She wanted it to be a surprise and now it's not anymore"

"Chris, it stopped being a surprised ever since she announced Radio City" Billie said.

"Where's Aaron and Andy?" I asked them, hoping it would stop their nonsense.

"Aaron is on a call with Emily" Billie said. "Andy . . . Is she still in the bathroom?"

"I don't blame her" I said. "Her first real show. Hard on the nerves for a newbie. I'll go check on her"

"Hey Y/N" Billie said, stopping me before I walked away. "For the album party-"

"What? You can't come?" I asked her. "You're going to bail on me again?"

"Oh, I would love to bail on you again" Billie joked.

I chuckled.

"What is it then?" I asked her.

"Ashton is thinking of tagging along" Billie said.

"Your brother?" I asked her. "Wait, does he still have his hair dyed green?"

"It's blue now" Billie said.
