L: oh no what is it now. He always does this shit.
M: so he canceled the show.
L:WHAT
M: Trust me I know!! He is canceling it because he found out they had to move to hockey game so he wants to go watch the game instead of go to the show.
Jamie starts laughing beside me.
L: JAMIE THIS ISNT FUNNY.
J: I'm sorry I'll stop laughing.
M: who is that!
L: Heathers son he is the one playing in the game.
M: are you fucking kidding me! Why don't you just let Chris meet him then he can continue with the concert then!
L: ughhh let me call him. He can't just have all of a sudden cancel it because of hockey. He must have a reason.
M: well you go talk to him, I'm tired of his shit.
L: ok I'll call him and then text you what he says.
M: ughh ok bye.
I hang up the call and look over at Jamie.
J: you ok?
L: yeah I just know Meghan being who she is, is stressing because this will cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to cancel a show like this.
J: is Meghan paying for the show?
L: no but she is our accountant and she hates seeing a dip on the accounts without a valid reason.
J: she's an accountant?
L: yeah we went to college together and when she graduated she took over my books and then she took over the rest of our books as well.
J: that's impressive.
L: yeah. But we should get some food. I'll call Chris if my dad is up. That man has a way of scaring Chris into telling the truth.
J: sounds good.
We start walking up stairs and I actually can't believe Chris cancelled his concert. Like he hates missing performances why would he do this?
Fuck it I'm going to call him.
Jamie is walking in front of me and we are almost where the parents are and I start to call Chris.
The phone rings and Chris picks up.
*FaceTime Call*
Chris: Hey girl what's up?
L: you know what's up. You want to explain?
Chris: oh yeah you know the hockey game. I want to go.
L: I call cap. Try again.
Chris: I can't do it anymore.
L: what's wrong babe?
Chris: everything. Everyone on tour is just doing drugs and drinking. I'm tired of it. I can't just keep drinking to sleep. I'm scared.
L: where are you?
Chris: I'm at my mom's house.
I look out the window and see that the roads have been cleared.
L: comeover we can talk it through.
Chris: thank god I though you'd never wake up.
L: have you been trying to call me?
Chris: No... I know you never sleep so I've been waiting for Meg to call you then I knew you would call me.
L: ok well that's a different problem just get dressed and come over. I'll make breakfast.
Chris: omg ok! Thank god.
*chris screams to his mom*
MOM GET DRESSED PLEASE. WE ARE GOING TO CUC'S HOUSE FOR BREAKFAST
Chris' Mom: OK
L: well thank you for letting me hear that lol. I'll see you soon.
I hang up the phone.
Jamie looks over at me.
J: everything ok?
L: umm yeah I think it will be. Chris and his mom are coming over and we are going to talk through what is going on.
J: that's good.
L: yeah. Did you talk to your coach yet?
J: yeah! He says the game is tonight.
L: oh that's awesome! When do you have to leave?
J: not until 3. Warmups are at 6, game starts at 8.
