"IM FUCKING WHAT?!"
my head snapped around towards, kerri, and she gave me a worried glance.
"look i tried to talk scott out of it but-"i cut her off midsentence, as my hands started to shake.
"do they not realize that the anxiety he gives me because the way i left it off could cause me to relapse?"i asked, and kerri's eyes widened.
"carter mae sullivan if you even think about relapsing with bronny i will skin your ass myself."she growled, and narrowed my eyes at her.
"i won't ever do that to her kerri, you should know me better than that by now."i sneered, and she rubbed her temples.
"i told scott flat out no, but he said the ads for it were already being made up."she continued, and i let out a bitter chuckle
"so let me guess brantley's headlining it?" i asked, with bitterness dripping from my lips.
"no carter he's not."she pulled up a photo from her phone, and showed it to me.
"carter mae sullivan, RSVP headlining tour?" i read aloud quietly, and then the shock came through me.
"i get my own headlining tour?"i ask, and she grins, and i start to scream for joy.
"you start tour rehearsals monday, with you and the band figuring out the tour setlist before rehearsals."she explained, and i grinned bringing her into a hug.
"thank you so much kerri."i told her, and she grinned.
"that's what im here for."

"ARE WE GOING TO DO GOOD WOMAN?"
i bit my lip, before looking back at kingston, my lead guitarist before shaking my head.
"damn! i'm shocked at that one!"evan my drummer exclaimed, and i chuckled.
"not in a relationship right now, maybe later on?"i suggested, and evan nodded.
evan and kingston was a mix of ben times two. the crazy, funny, loving, best guys i knew. they treated bronwyn like a niece and knew not to get on my bad side. but they were like my blood brothers.
"who are you gonna sing amfp with?"lila, my backup singer asked, and i threw my head back.
"gotta talk with BG see if he'll do it with me but then again i haven't talked to him in almost four years basically."i mumbled, and kingston pulled me into a side hug.
"ill take bronny to the park to get her out of your hair if you want for a little bit while you talk to BG." he offered, and i sighed, "if you don't mind."
"i don't. that's why i offered. i miss my niece anyway."kingston grinned, causing one to come onto my face too.
"hey im coming with too!"evan pouted, "i want to show her who loves her the most!"
"you are delusional if you think that you're her favorite uncle. we all know who is her favorite."king fought back, and i chuckled, as lila and i looked at each other.
"jason."the two of us said, and kingston rolled his eyes.
"go call bg."he shooed me out of the house, onto my porch to where i pulled out my phone and dialed BG's number.
it went right to voicemail, and i sighed, before leaving one.
"he didn't pick up?"
i jumped, looking behind me to find evan standing behind me.
"i swear to god i'll deck you the next time you do that."i grumbled, and he chuckled.
"relax ms.mae, you're fine."he rubbed my shoulders as i put my head down on my porch.
"you two need to talk before the tour just to make things peaceful because the fans are gonna notice, and i don't want you to feel so anxious around him." evan explained, and my knee bounced.
"i really, really don't wanna talk about what happened that night ev."i whispered.
"i was drunk out of my mind that night and we had sex."my voice shook, as i thought back to that night.
"god ev."tears pricked at my eyes, "i ran because that's what i was used to and kept this secret with me from bronwyn and brantley for four years, god what kind of mother am i?!"
"carter mae sullivan if i ever hear you say that again i'll have caroline come over here and give you the worst ear tugging youve ever had."i jumped, turning around to find kingston furious from what he heard
"i've known you for the past ten years carter. i've seen the ups, the downs, your relationships, and when i got to meet my favorite niece." kingston looked at me, leaning up against my porch.
"but she doesn't know her dad king, i feel like i've kept her away from a great guy because of my selfish ass." i sniffed as tears started to flow heavily down my face.
"you're scared what could happen carter."evan told me, and for the first time since i wrote girl, i broke down.
"shh, don't make yourself sick mae."kingston rubbed my back, as my sobs got louder.
