Ch. 17
A/N: Hello and welcome back to Enter the Child Star. I hope you are all doing well. Guess what guys? This story is almost over. After this chapter there only one more update left. Oh my gosh. I am excited for it all. Thank you so much for all the reads, follows, and favorites. I appreciate you all more than you could possibly know. Also, fair warning this might be a short chapter. It really depends on what you individually classify as short. As always, I do not/ have not/nor, will I ever own the rights to The Breakfast Club or any of its characters and themes. They all belong to the dearly departed John Hughes. Now, onto the second to last chapter.
"I assume Allison and I are better people than you guys. Us weirdos. Would you do that to me?" Brian asks Alli. "I don't have any friends." Alli admits. "If you did?" Brian asks. "No, I don't think my friends would mine." Alli shrugged. "I wouldn't do that you to any of you. That's real shitty." Brian shook his head in disgust. "Your friends look up to us." Claire points out. "Seriously Claire? Get over yourself. Nobody looks up to you. Envy you? Yes. Want your popularity? Absolutely? Hate you? One hundred percent. Look up to you? Please." Tatiana rolls her eyes.
"You're so conceited, Claire." Brian cries. "I'm not. I hate being this way." Claire whines. "Then why do it?" Brian asks. "You don't understand. You don't know the pressure they put on me." Claire yells. "You don't think I know pressure? Well fuck you, Claire. Fuck you. Do you know why I'm here today? Mr. Ryan found a gun in my locker." Brian sobs. Everybody in the room looks surprised. "Why'd you have the gun?" Andrew asks. "I tried to pull the fucking trunk and it didn't go on." Brian sighed. "What was the gun for, Brian?" Andrew questions.
"Just forget it." Brian tries to dismiss it. "You brought it up, man." Andrew reminds. "I can't have an F. My parents cannot have it either. Even if I ace the rest of the semester, I am still only a B, and everything is ruined." Brian explains. "Bri." Tatiana sighs sadly. "So, I considered my options you know?" Brian shrugs. "No! Killing yourself is not an option." Claire protests. "Well I didn't do it did I? No." Brian scoffs. "It was a handgun?" Alli asks. "No, it was a flare gun. It went off in my locker." Brian explained as Andrew bursts into low laughter. "It's not funny." Brian grew defensive.
The others begin to laugh too and after a few more minutes, Brian joins in too. "Yes, it is. Fucking Elephant was destroyed." Brian chuckles as the room grows calmer. "You guys want to know what I did to get in here?" Alli asks with a sly smirk. Everybody nods in hopes that she gets on with it. "Nothing! I didn't have anything better to do." Alli admits. John turns to Tatiana curiously. This causes the others to do the same. "Tati, what did you do to get in here?" Brian asks. "Oh, come on." Tatiana rolls her eyes. "We all told our reason." Claire points out. "John didn't!" Tatiana speaks up.
"Yeah but its Bender. Chances are we already know. Now get on with it." Andrew urges. Tatiana sighs, "Fine. Do you guys know Macy Ludlow? Look's like a deformed Kelly LeBrock?" Tatiana asks. Once she sees them nod, Tatiana continues. "Okay, so we were practicing for the musical right? She keeps messing up. I am talking does not know her lines, her stage ques, lyrics to songs we have done hundreds of times at this point, and dance steps. I was so frustrated because I was taught to always come prepared and be professional. So, I told her that if she messed up one more time, I was going to hit her with a prop suitcase. She did not believe me. We continue rehearsal and she messed up the lines that bring in my character. I was done. So, I grabbed my suitcase, walked up behind her, and took the hardest swing possible. She fell to the ground sobbing."
Tatiana explains as everybody looks at her shocked and surprised. "So, next thing I know, I am getting written up, Vernon is yelling at me reminding me that this is not Hollywood and I cannot do as I please, and here I am. In my defense, the world where I come from, I would be applauded. Productions are a lot of time and money. You cannot afford mistakes. Also, Macy is fine. That'll teach her to not come on my stage unprepared." Tatiana shrugs.
A/N: Yes, I know. Tatiana is absolutely nuts. Anyway, thank you so much for reading. I really hoped you guys liked it. Next chapter is the grand finale. So, until next time. Bye guys! See you next Wednesday
