"I think I might puke," I say while pacing back and forth while wearing my premiere dress "Just take deep breaths," Willow says while standing in front of me 

"I can't," I shake my head with my hands on my stomach "You'll be okay, it'll be over before you know," She says and I scoff 

"No, it won't. I saw the guest list, he's bringing her," I say while looking at her "Punch her," Willow says quickly and I raise my eyebrows 

"Okay maybe don't do that," She says and I nod my head in agreement "Girls, three minutes till we have to go!" My manager yells from the other room and my breathing pace quickens 

"I can't go," I shake my head quickly "Yes you can," Willow says while walking closer to me 

"You are amazing and you deserve to see the movie you made, so you're going to walk in there like a bad bitch and pay them no attention because you're better than them," She says 

"How am I going to pay them no attention? I have to be with him the whole night?" I say quickly "Don't make eye contact and keep the conversations short, if he tries to talk about you know the whole thing, walk away," She says slowly and I nod 

"Girls, let's go!" My manager says and my eyes widen in panic "I'm gonna die," I say as Willow pulls me out of her bedroom

"Okay so you're gonna walk the carpet by yourself then with Jack, luckily you can't do much talking so you'll be fine there, then you have to do some interviews with him but you can just talk to the interviewer and then we go into the screening room and you guys just have to get on the stage and then thank everyone for coming and you can part ways, sit wherever, and then more interviews after the movie, and boom you're done," My manager says as we pull into the screening lot 

"Okay doesn't sound too bad," I say while running my hands over my dress "I'll be there with you every step of the way, if you feel like you can't do it, just give me a little signal and I'll pull you away," he says and I smile 

I've always been thankful for my manager, he has always had my best interest at heart and I know it's hard for people to find managers like that. "Okay, I'll tap on my leg four times so you know," I reply and he nods in agreement 

"I got this," I whisper to myself "Yes you do," Willow smiles while putting her hand on my knee in support 

"Are you ready?" My manager says as the car pulls into the streaming lot "Don't think I'll ever be ready?" I laugh nervously 

"Okay, let's go," He says while the car comes to a complete stop. He steps out of the car first, then Willow, and then me. Willow reaches out her hand for me to hold while I step out of the car.

Flashing lights fill my vision and shouts of my and Willow's name fills my year. I can hear my stomach fill with worry and my head repeating over and over that everything is going to be okay. I take a deep breath while we walk closer to the carpet 

"You got this, I love you," Willow whispers, and I smile before hesitating to walk onto the carpet 

"Indigo! Over here!" I hear the paparazzi yell as I step onto the carpet more, I smile in different directions while switching my pose a few times, I walk farther down the carpet until I'm met with Jack, I look over to my left to see him and my heart drops down to my feet. 

I move my gaze away from him and back to the photographers, "Get one with Jack!" Many of them yell and a lady walks onto the carpet while motioning for me to walk closer to Jack, I hesitate but follow her anyways 

"Put your arms around each other!" They yell and we both sigh before putting our arms around each other "Closer!" They yell and I shuffle slightly closer 

As I look out into the crowd and see all the cameras flashing and people moving and that mixed with the feeling of Jack's arm around me causes me to become nauseous, I quickly tap on my leg four times hoping my manager will see before I puke all over this carpet 

I feel an arm touch mine and I look over to my manager "Let's go," He says while pulling away from Jack quickly, we walk into the building and I run to find the nearest bathroom, I fall onto the floor of the first stall and let it all out  

"Oh, honey," I hear Willow says from behind me while she grabs my hair to hold it back for me "I hate this," I say before puking into the toilet again 

"I know, I know. Do you want me to get you water or some food?" She asks and I shake my head "The thought of drinking or eating right now might make me puke again," I say while grabbing some toilet paper to wipe my mouth clean

"I'm so sorry," I say to her as I stand up "You have nothing to be sorry for," She says before pulling me into a hug 

"Do you have your makeup?" I laugh as I look at myself in the mirror to see my mascara running down my face "Yup," She says while setting her small handbag down on the counter and dumping out all of the things she brought me 

She starts to wipe my mascara off slowly and then put some concealer on the part that are red. I let her finish fixing my makeup while I fluff out my hair and try to make it look good again. Once she's done I flatten my dress out before we make our way out of the bathroom. The first people I see the second I walk out is Jack looking around while Natalie hangs off his arm 

"I think I'm gonna be sick again," I say while rushing back into the bathroom
