Bette looked at Tina
“She’s running away from this” Bette said
“I agree”
“If we say no, she’ll go on her own, you know she will she’s stubborn” Bette stated
“Then we let her go under the condition we go too”
“Will you be able to take the time off work?”
“Shit no, I have this video to edit” Tina ran her hands through her hair
“In theory they will be fine I mean the 4 boys will protect them, I trust that” Bette said “I’m just worried about Jess just now”
“Lisa is with her so that settles me a little”
Lisa walked over to them
“I won’t let anything happen to her, I’ll make sure she takes her medication, she won’t get wasted I promise, she just needs away, were talking 7 days here I promise”
“Ok” Bette said
“You skype us every night”
“Well Mason wont sleep unless he speaks to you so that’s a given” Lisa smiled
“If Jess starts to rebel you phone me” Bette stated
“I will and if I don’t Jace will…okay I need to go tell them” Lisa said excited

Jess walked up the drive to Carmen’s house she took a deep breath as she knocked on the door.
Andrew answered.
“Hey she’s not here? Why you knocking?”
“Where is she?” Jess asked
“She’s working till 8pm” Andrew explained “How are you?”
“I’m not too sure, can you tell her I’m going away for 7 days, Just so she knows”
“Jess” Andrew began
“Andrew I don’t want to talk about it, honestly I’m sick of hearing about it, I just want to get tonight out my face and then I can get on a plane”
“Tonight?” Andrew asked
“He’s having a launch party and joke here needs to sing with him so my career or personal life isn’t all over the papers” Jess explained
“Shit I’m sorry Jess, that’s shitty”
“It’s a joke isn’t it” Jess said sarcastically “Anyway just tell her I won’t be around for 7 days and I’m not taking my phone, I need to breath”
“Ok” Andrew nodded “But Jess, just know deep down she loves you and she’s disgusted with herself”
“Yep” Jess said turning and walking back to Lisa’s car
“You okay?” Lisa asked
“Yeah let’s go get food before this shitty thing” Jess smiled
“MCDONALDS?” Mark smiled
“Erm no” Jess scrunched her face
“Taco Bell?” Lisa suggested
“Yeah!” Jess’s eyes lit up
“Will you be okay eating that before performing?” Lisa asked
“Yeah I’ll be fine; if I’m sick I’ll make sure I aim for him”
Everyone laughed
“Are you going to speak to her before we leave?” Lee asked
“Nope” Jess said “I don’t want to hear excuses and bullshit”
Jace rubbed Jess’s shoulders “Let’s just have a great week”
