EDITED
Paige's pov-
Demi world tour has officially ended, and mom's contract is over with Hollywood Records. Sometime around next week she'll be signing with Island Records, and her leaving Hollywood Records is all over social media. Her fans have never been so ecstatic they even trended #goodfuckingbyehollywoodrecords worldwide!

"Paigeeee!" Mom screeches from the living room. I skip down the steps to see what my mom wants me for. I walk into the living room to see her laying on dad's lap.

"Do you wanna go out to breakfast with us?" She wonders as I sit on the reclining chair across from her. I nod my head, and run upstairs to get ready for the day.

After I'm done getting ready I walk downstairs interrupting my parents makeup session. I cough very loudly causing mom to jump up. I snort at Nick's startled face.

"Can I drive?" I blurt out as we're walking down the sidewalk to our car parked on the street.

Mom stops dead in her tracks, and turns around to face me. "Is this how you're planning to kill us?" She says raising her eyebrows.

I gasp in shock from her comment, and out of the corner of my eye I see Dad muffling his laughter. I roll my eyes, and mumble a small whatever, and slowly follow them to the car.

Of course we went to bakers square for breakfast since it's dad's current obsession right now. "Hi my name is Phil how may I help you?" Phil states passing out napkins to our table. This Phil guy seems really peculiar since he keeps staring in my direction.

After we place our orders, and Phil finally leaves us alone to go take care of other customers, I whisper in dad's ear. "I think there's something wrong with our waiter." Dad then bursts into loud laughter causing the whole restaurant to stop their conversations, and listen to ours. Across the seats mom is red in embarrassment, and she throws her straw at him.

Phil brings out our food, and I ordered waffles with whipped cream on it. I eat the waffles and realize I never got my syrup for them, and have my mom call someone over to get me syrup.

Minutes later a thick cup of syrup is delivered to our table. I happily pour it on my waffles, and munch on them. Then I get a sudden pang in my chest. I ignore it, and continue eating. As I take a scoop of whipped cream off the waffles I feel something scratch my tongue, and I pull it out.

Inside of the whipped cream is a little note that says:

"The syrup is no good, Paige."

I begin to choke, and my heart rate goes up a million times. Tears begin to well my eyes,and my concerned parents reach out to grab the note. When mom reads it she gasps, and mutters, "She never said her name. How do they know who she is."

I look over to my father who is looking at me with a worried expression all over his face. He then pulls me into a tight embrace, and mumbles to me to calm my breathing.

As this is happening the pang in my heart becomes more evident, and I'm starting to feel pain in my stomach, and head now. I squeeze my eyes shut wanting the horrible ache to go away, and then I freeze in my fathers arms realizing what was wrong with the syrup.

"They poisoned me."
