"OH MY GOD BEN SHUT UP!"
i laughed as my band, and brantley's band sat outside by a fire pit, and ben was grinning ear to ear.
"mini me asleep?"kingston asked and i nodded grinning like a fool.
"my mini is asleep yes."i corrected him, and he rolled his eyes playfully.
"speaking of,"evan got up, and then threw something at me.
"what are you giving me this for?"i asked, throwing it back at him, "give it to bronny."
"what are you getting bronny for her birthday?"lila asked, and i smiled.
"had an idea to go to disney with anyone who wanted to go when we get into california on the 20th."i brought up, and kingston grinned.
"i think she'd like that."ben pitched in, "from the past four months i've known her i think she'd like it. especially if she meets rapunzle."
"then it's set."i went and grabbed my laptop before we all figured everything out.
"our next stop is georgia right?"i asked, and they all nodded before i groaned.
"i've gotta call jess and rae."i grumbled and king laughed at me.
"you don't wanna deal with them?"he asked and i nodded.
"they are gonna drag my ass because i haven't seen them since in person since princess was born."i explained and lila chuckled.
"so, ear tugging?"lila asked and i nodded.
"not just for jess and rae. from my mama too." brantley reminded me, and my eyes went wide.
"so i will be hiding until showtime if that's the case."

ALMOST A WEEK LATER WE WERE IN GEORGIA,
and i was in my bus with rae and jess while i had let brantley and ben take princess for the day.
"spencer is really stupid for a guy with his iq." i stated as rae laughed her ass off.
all of the sudden, ben stormed in with panic covering his face.
"ben, what happened?"i asked, immediately sitting up, and he looked nervous.
"bronwyn ran off and we can't find her."ben told me, and rage ran through my body.
"i'm gonna kill him!"i yelled as i stormed into my room, and grabbed the pistol i had in my dresser drawer.
"who are you killing?"jess asked as i stormed back out, and i growled.
"the same man who choked me out almost six years ago."i snapped, and the three followed me out.
"he's out of jail and you didn't tell us?!"ben tried to argue with me, and i whipped around.
"i only found out two days ago and seriously didn't think he'd be stupid enough to come back."i sneered, and everyone was already together.
"pj and brantley are coming with me, kingston ben rae and jess go with them."i told them, "and if you find john with her call me as soon as you can. i am going to deal with him."
we all split up, and eventually, i heard a yell coming behind one of the busses.
"mama!"
i raced over behind kerri's bus was, and saw bronny with john, and i felt something inside of me snap.
"pj take her now."i demanded as soon as i was able to reach her.
"what a lovely daughter you have carter. it's also amazing to see you as always."john grinned, and i pulled the pistol out of my back holder, pressing the barrel up against his stomach.
"i am going to tell you this once and once only."i started in a low tone as brantley stood behind me making sure he didn't harm me.
"if you ever come within a hundred feet of me or my daughter ever again, or even grab her like you did i promise you i will shoot you in the head and you will drop dead."i threatened and he laughed, "i'd love to see you try."
it took me all i had not to punch him then and there, but i continued.
"i am not that same girl you hit, bruised and beat six years ago. i have more at stake then i did before."i sneered, loading up the gun to shoot as a smile curled along his lips.
"i can promise you, if you come near either of us again, i will take my pistol, load it up, and shoot you dead on the spot."i promised, and he went still.
"and i will inflict the same pain, and fear you inflicted in me."i whispered, shooting the empty gun, hearing the click of the gun.
he went ridged, and walked backwards, growling at him, "now i will be telling your corrections officer about this, and i will be calling the police because you did break your parole and a restraining order."
"now get the hell out of my sight."i snapped, and he bolted off.
i looked over at brantley who looked shocked at me, and i took in a deep breath.
"you're gonna let him get away?!"brantey asked, and i kept silent as i stormed away
"get everyone together. now."
