"I can't believe that I have to fucking announce an award with him." Harley spit out, venomously gritting her teeth." "Harley, please. You're overreacting." Trinity said, rubbing the back of her neck.

"Overreacting?" Harley furrowed her eyebrows, looking over at Trinity in disbelief. "Yes, fucking overreacting with this melodromatic bullshit. Stop." Genesis rolled her eyes, looking down at her sharp, red nails.

"Guys, can everyone calm down please." Millie squeaked from the backseat and Kenny nodded. "Yeah, this is supposed to be one of the most exciting days of our lives."

"Sorry," Harley bit her lip, "I've just uh, kinda been on edge since Cat and I broke up." "Stop mixing business with pleasure." Genesis looked up at her with a raised eyebrow. "You don't have to be such a bitch, Jennifer. I'm stressed." "I'm just telling it how I see it, babe." She raised both hands and Harley rolled her eyes.

"Harley, next time just tell us how you're feeling before you freak out. We're here for you no matter what." Trinity interrupted their argument. "I know, I know," She scrubbed at her face, "I just need to do better at handling stress." "I feel that." Kenny popped her gum.

"I hope you're gonna spit that out before we get inside the venue." Genesis studied Kenny but she just grinned. "Sis, you seem more uptight than Harley right now. Are you sure you're good?" "I'm never uptight." Genesis shook her head with a small smile.

"Okay but are we just gonna forget that Brockhampton is gonna be there?" Millie asked quietly, looking anxious. "It's gonna be okay, Millie," Trinity put a comforting hand on her shoulder, "Everyone just needs to take a few deep breaths and realize where we're going. This is supposed to be fun."

"Trin, I can't have fun when Kevin Abstract is breathing down my neck. He's a raging asshole." "Now you can't go around using that language. Kelly and Chris wouldn't be happy." Kenny pointed out and Harley huffed. "They're our managers. They're here to manage us, damn." Genesis rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, but we're all adults here. We can behave." Trinity said, yet Harley shook her head. "Not if they don't." "I don't think they're that bad." Millie smiled lightly. "Don't even-," Harley practically shivered, "Just don't even say that to me."

"What?" Millie frowned, "I'm just trying to give them the benefit of the doubt." "We're at war, Millie. At war," Harley looked her right in the eyes, "And we're winning every single battle." "You're so fucking annoying." Genesis said and Kenny giggled. "I think she needs to get laid again."

"I would if I could just call Cat." "Cat's a bitch," Trinity grimaced, "Get her out of your head." "It's not that easy." She would have already if she could. "Anyway, that's not what's important right now," Harley raised a hand for them to stop, "We need a game plan."

"For what?" Trinity asked. "We need to look badass. So that Brockhampton knows they can't fuck with us." "Now that's something I can get behind." Genesis smirked, reaching a hand up for a high five from Harley. "Listen, I'm all about plans but this just seems unnecessary." Kenny said.

"No. We can't be caught tripping up," Harley said definitively, "Kevin Abstract is definitely making his very own game plan to show us up at this very minute."

*Inside Brockhampton's Limo*

"Go, go, go!" All the boys were chanting as Merlyn was trying to fit as many gummy worms in his mouth as possible. "How many is that?" Kiko nudged Ciarán's arm as he put in another worm. "Number 13, baby. Woo!" Ciarán yelled and Merlyn said something unintelligible.

Joba was sitting in between all of the guys, laughing, when he noticed Kevin frowning. "Hey, what's wrong?" Kevin blinked twice before looking at him. "Sorry. Just lost in thought." "You wanna share some of those thoughts? I'm all ears." Joba leaned in closer.
