"Karen! I can't find my boots!" shouted Bri from inside her closet.

"Look under your bed!" shouted Karen up the stairs.

"Found them!" shouted Bri.

Karen shook her head as she walked into the living room. Shane was sitting on the couch watching TV. Karen sat down beside him and started to watch the movie too. A few minutes later they could hear stomping across the second floor and then running down the stairs. There was a blur of black hair and red fabric that ran past them and out the front door. Shane shook his head as he turned his attention back to the TV.

"I don't want to know," he said.

"Best if you don't ask," laughed Karen.

Bri dug out her cell phone and dialed a number. She tossed her things into her car and climbed in. Just as she pulled out of the driveway the person answered.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Jewels? It's Bri," she said.

"Oh. Hey. You still coming by the house today?" asked Julie.

"Yeah. I'm pulling out of the driveway now," she said. "See you in a bit."

"Okay. Be careful."

Bri tossed her phone in her purse and took off down the road. She had a big smile on her face as she thought about what she had to do that day. Shane was probably going to flip his lid when he found out, but that was a risk she was willing to take.

Jeff walked through the house picking up his daughter's toys. He was walking up the stairs when his phone rang.

"Yello?" he said.

"Hey man, I need you to do me a favor," said Shane.

"What's up?" asked Jeff.

"I need you to keep an eye on Bri. She's been acting a bit off lately," said Shane.

"I'll see what I can do. Beth is supposed to have lunch with her today, anyway," said Jeff.

"Thanks, man. I owe ya one," said Shane.

"It's nothing," replied Jeff hanging up. "Hey, Beth!"

"What?" she said walking out of Ruby's room.

"You still meeting up with Bri today?" asked Jeff.

"Yeah. Why?" she asked.

"Shane's a bit worried about her, and wants us to keep an eye on her," he said.

"Will do," said Beth kissing her husband. "You want to get her ready for the day. She's gonna spend it with you."

"Sweet!" said Jeff walking into his daughter's room.

Bri pulled into the driveway and turned her car off. She grabbed her bag and walked up to the front door. She knocked and waited. Shannon opened the door.

"Sup, girl," he said.

"Not much, but I've got to steal your wifey," she said walking into the house.

Shannon and her mom may not be on the best of terms, but Bri loved hanging out with him. She was always at his tattoo shop when he was in town. They would get into all kinds of trouble. Bri walked into the house and up the Julie's studio. She knocked on the door as she walked in.

"Hey, girl," said Julie. "You want to just dive in head first?"

"No time like the present," said Bri closing the door.

"Alright then," said Julie.

"Shane, calm down," said Karen from the kitchen. "She went to Shannon's like she always does. What's got you so worried?"

"Just stuff I've been hearing through the grapevine," he said.

"It's just talk," said Karen. "If she was going to do something she would've told you."

"You're right," said Shane. "What's for lunch?"

"Whatever you find," laughed Karen walking out of the kitchen.

"Have you told Shane about this yet?" asked Beth.

"Not yet," said Bri. "Karen knows."

"Wait, you've already signed and you haven't told Shane?" asked Julie looking over at the girl.

"I'm working on it," said Bri. "Slowly."

"Try a bit faster. You start in two weeks," said Beth.

"You're lucky he doesn't watch much, otherwise he would've seen the promos," said Julie.

"I know. When I go home tonight I'm going to talk to him about it," said Bri.

"Good. Cause the shit will hit the fan if you don't do it soon," said Beth. "It's one thing for you to withhold information, but you've got Jeff and I doing it too."

"I know. I'm sorry," said Bri. "I can babysit for free."

"You do that already," laughed Beth.

'Oh, yeah," said Bri.

All three women laughed and continued with their lunch. Bri though about how she was going to bring it up with her dad. She already knew what Bret and her mom were going to say, but it didn't matter since she was eighteen. She had been training with Matt and Jeff for the past two years and doing indie shows to build up her credibility, which is how she was found.

She said her goodbyes to Beth and Julie as she climbed into her car. She let out a long sigh as she drove towards her house. It was going to be a very long night.
