MARIAH'S POV
I've been the maid or cleaning lady for the guys for about a month now and it's a lot more work than I thought . These guys are messy as fuck! Don't get me wrong, I'm ecstatic they're trying to help me, but I wish they wouldn't ask me to do everything for them. I never have breaks or time to myself. I know what you're thinking, you asked for it, or you were so excited about a job. Yes I was, but i didn't expect them to make me do EVERYTHING for them. I am basically their mom. I cook and clean for them. I even have to make appointments for them and it's getting out of hand. I'm a cleaner and a cook, not their mother. I sound like a ungrateful bitch, but no one should have to be a slave to 5 men. I thought this was going to be fun and that my depression would decrease but i feel like it's gotten worse. The guys barely even talk to me unless they want something. Sometimes they even treat me hostilely. I feel almost hated by them sometimes. It's like once I became an employee, friendship went out the window. One of the worst parts is they are all on different eating times, which means its 5 breakfasts, lunches, and dinners, except for the times they decide to eat together or go out, which doesn't happen very often.
I know you all want to know what happened to Jinxx. Well the answer is not a typical Cinderella ending. He treats me like all of the other guys treat me. He said he would never leave me, but he lied, he even has a girlfriend now. I know what you're thinking, if it's that bad, why not quit? Well, because if i quit, then I'll be homeless and dirty again. I'm saving all my money i earn, so hopefully one day i can leave.
"Mariah!" I heard Andy's distinct and deep voice bellow, he sounded pissed. What the fuck did i do?!
"Yes" i asked walking into the living area somewhat timidly. He's been fighting with Juliet all week, so he's been in a bad mood lately, however he seemed to be in a good mood this morning, so i don't know why he's pissed right now, so walking on eggshells is probably a good idea.
"Did you do the laundry we asked you to do?"
FUCK! I totally forgot the laundry, i guess i got so sidetracked with mopping, sweeping and cleaning the bunks and the surrounding areas that i totally forgot to do clothes. Shit, he's going to be pissed.
"I'm so sorry, i totally forgot, i was to occupied with the bunks and mopping, i totally forgot." I said bracing myself for the yelling. All the guys were looking at me except for Jinxx who was making out with his girlfriend. I unwillingly gulped, i was honestly terrified of them.
"You what?!"
"I-I forgot, I'm so so sorry, I'll do them first thing in the morning, i promise, please just don't hurt me." I said in a rush with tears running down my face. I saw something change in Andy's eyes and everyone else's, even Jinxx looked up. I sat down and started bawling. Everything seemed to go in slow motion, my vision started blurring and i felt my eyes close. Am i dying?
I let the darkness take me and i finally felt at peace.
ANDYS POV
I don't even know what happened. One minute she was fine, and then she was crying, then she just passed out. Ashley ended up calling the ambulance after we couldn't get her to wake up. Suddenly, everything came back to me. I've never seen her eat, she always wears long sleeves, and we're constantly asking her to do shit, so she probably doesn't get much sleep or breaks. We were such assholes to her, ugh, we're the worst bosses ever. I wouldn't be surprised if she hated us and wanted to quit.
Now we're all sitting in the hospital waiting for the doctor to tell us something.
"This is all our fault." Ashley said with a sigh. We all agreed with an equal sigh. We all agreed that when she got out, we would be better and nicer to her and give her time off. It was obvious that we were the cause. We all felt absolutely terrible for doing this to her.
"Friends and/or family of Mariah Carter (no relation to Tyler, just had to make up a last name)." We didn't even know her last name for Christ's sake! We all slowly got up and followed the doctor.
"She seems to have suffered a blackout do to malnutrition and stress. The stress and lack of eating caused her brain to malfunction and ultimately caused her to faint. Also, she seems to have fresh wounds on her arm and thighs which we believe came from self infliction. " The doctor explained. All my guilt came rushing back. We were so oblivious to everything going on. The guys let out a sigh once again and just nodded at the doctor's words. What could we say? We had no words.
"We suggest a few nights in the psychiatric ward of the hospital and perhaps some counseling after being released, oh and we would also suggest someone managing her meals and amount of work she does." We all nodded.
"We have to leave tomorrow for the next city of our tour, will she be awake by then, can she get out?" I asked.
"Well, she should be awake, but we're not releasing her for a few more days, 72 hours at most." The doctor explained. Great, now what do we do? We can't just leave her here, especially after everything we've already done to her, but we can't disappoint the fans either.
After discussion we decided we would go to the next city, then come back for her after our show was over. We had four days off after the next show, so it would workout. We left the hospital and began our journey to the next city with one less person on the bus.
The show was, of course amazing, and now we were heading back to the hospital a day later to see Mariah and hopefully apologize to her. Its been over 48 hours since she went in, so we should be able to get her out earlier.
MARIAH'S POV
I woke up to plain white walls and bright white lights. I immediately recognized the place as a hospital. I was in a room with padding, which i assumed was a psychiatric room in the hospital. The first day went by uneventfully and by the 46 hour mark, they decided it was ok for me to leave. The guys never showed up and I didn't expect them to anyway, it's not like they ever cared about me anyway. I was just a maid to them, a slave, a nobody, so i did what i had to do, i signed myself out of the hospital and left, back out to the streets where i feared would be my only home in this lifetime, unaware of the bus that was only 30 minutes away...
