"I TRUSTED YOU VALERIE."

"I-"

"AFTER ALL THIS TIME, TELLING ME YOU WERE GOING OUT WITH YOUR FRIENDS OR WITH HAILEY AND YOU WERE OUT WITH THIS ...this BOY!?"

"Mom, list-"

"And out of ALL THE BOYS IN NEW YORK... you go and choose one who's .. who's famous ?? Or whatever the fuck I don't know !"

She ran her hands through her frizzy hair, pacing back and forth in the living room as I sat on the couch waiting for my time to explain.

"Now your face is plastered everywhere, with some boys tongue down your throat, YOU THINK THATS THE IMAGE I WANT FOR YOU!?"

"None of that was ever supposed to
Happen, I didn't lie to you. I WAS going out with my friends, jack just.. I don't know something happened. And I tried to stop it I promise I didn't want anything to happen but it just did."

"That boy is going to break your heart. And I'm not going to be there to help you pick up the pieces. I was protecting your heart before you gave it away, it's your responsibility now."

Her eyes fell to the floor.
She looked up and I thought she was going to apologize, but she didn't.

I heard her bedroom door close.

Jack called.
I answered.

"You comin?" He asked in regards to dinner with the group, even chosen and Jeremy flew in tonight.

"Yea, on my way."
