I’m in a foul as fuck mood, and unfortunately everyone around here is fair game. I haven’t seen Cole in two and a half weeks and I miss him. Badly. I walk in to my dressing room and see what our assistant, also known as Mum’s lackey, has set out for me to wear tonight.

“Are you fucking kidding me?” I yell.

Shell runs in. “What’s wrong, McKnley?” she asks, frantic.

“A skirt?” I ask her.

“Your mother picked several of them for you for the tour.”

“I don’t care who picked them. I care that you, Shell, who have been with us for a while now, thought to disregard my instructions that I will never wear a skirt on stage.”

“But I thought...,” she whimpers.

“Your job isn’t to think, it’s to follow instructions.” I throw the skirt at her. “I don’t particularly care to flash the front row, so get me something else to wear.”

I flop down in the chair that’s facing the mirror and pull out my phone. A photo of Cole and me in Nice is my wallpaper. I know it’s not Shell’s fault my mother picks out inappropriate costumes. I’m also aware my mood is my way of taking out my frustration about not being able to see Cole. What I just said was something the old Knley would’ve said, but I’m not her anymore, so I should stop acting like her. With a sigh I unlock the phone and dial Cole’s number. I desperately need to hear his voice, anything to help me feel connected to him again. I’m just about to hang up when he picks up.

“Hi, love.”

Just the sound of his voice relaxes me. “Hey.”

“What’s wrong?” he asks immediately.

“I miss you.”

I can hear his smile when he replies. “I miss you too, love. So how’s the tour going?”

I blow out a breath. “It’s going.”

“That good, huh?”

“It’s okay. Every venue is sold out.”

“But?” he asks, knowing there’s more.

“I love how you know there’s more than I’m telling you.”

“It’s because I know you, Knley, who you really are. You can’t hide that from your other half.” I always melt when he says stuff like that to me. He’s so open with his feelings. It’s one of the many things I love about him. “So tell me what’s really eating you.”

“It’s just....” I sigh. “It’s not fun anymore. Don’t get me wrong, I still love performing and I’m grateful so many people have spent their hard-earned cash to come and see us, but I feel like I’ve outgrown this particular place in my life, you know? We’re still playing songs from when we first broke, and I’m not that girl anymore. I look back and I can hardly tell the difference between songs from our first album and songs off our last. There’s no growth.”

“What happened to the songs you wrote while we were away?”

“They’re still sitting on my laptop.”

“So why don’t you start working on them again?”

“And do what with them? There’s no way my mother will let the band record them.
