Don't forget to go read the prequel called Break Me! It's all about Holly and Remington's relationship.

Also I guarantee that updates on all my books are gonna be slow (this one will be the most frequent, as well as Break Me) because of school stuff. If you really want me to update anything, just comment on that book and I'll do my best. I'm not sure which ones people like atm.

Mentions of weight, this is a pretty easy chapter, more like a filler than a real chapter hahaha

Andy walks down the corridor to his studio, slowing when Kassandra calls his name from a doorway. "Yes?" He asks, checking his phone, since Remington was messaging him.

"I just wanted to apologise for the other day," she says approaching.

Andy types out a reply to Remington's text before talking. "Shouldn't be you apologising," he responds, smiling at his husband's simple message.

Guess who's making his own breakfast???

Kassandra sighs. "I know."

Go you!!

"Phoebe's just like that, Andy, she always has been."

The man pushes his phone into his pocket. "A horrible person?"

"No. Just...she says what she's thinking."

"I'm sorry, but anyone who makes comments about someone's weight is just not someone I want to have anything to do with." He sighs. "Does she even know how rude that was? Poor Remington was in pieces."

"In her defence-"

"In her defence she doesn't know what he's got going on? That's not a damn excuse. She shouldn't be talking about anyone like that, no matter if they're her best friend or her worst enemy." Andy decides he's done with this conversation and turns around. "Second had apologies are worth fuck all," he says, and pushes open the door to his studio.

What time will u be home??

Before dinner

Okie dokes.

"Please give her a chance to apologise," Kassandra calls.

Andy sighs, turning to look at her, unimpressed. "Please tell her that an apology is not going to fix it. She wanted advice for your band and when she got some, she made him feel awful about it. Tell her I said shame on her."

"Will you not let her apologise at all?"

"Is she willing to come and apologise or is this an attempt at not getting on my bad side because you know I could help you gain popularity?"

Kassandra is quiet.

"That's what I thought. Look, I was willing to help you at first. You're a nice person. But I can't be helping someone who insulted Remington and frankly, I don't want to be associated with anyone who makes comments about anyone's weight. It's not cool. You'll have to do it the hard way, 'cause I'm not some tool for you to profit off. Have a nice day."

"Why's it such a big deal? Phoebe is just like that."

"I'm not having this argument," Andy says, and steps through the door. "Good luck with the band, I won't be promoting you."

"Andy-"

"No."

"Please give us a chance."

"Let me give you something to think about, okay? It does not matter how good your music is. If someone in your band is a case for concern, no one is ever gonna be a real fan. You wanna know the real reason why Remington's band has the support they do? It's because they are sweethearts. They stand up for people who don't have anyone else. They tell their life stories and show their vulnerability and they show their fans that they are grateful. All I'm getting from you right now is that you're desperate for fame and, quite honestly, toxic. I would never support a band with someone like Phoebe in and I think you should really consider the impact you want to have on the world. Please don't keep asking for my forgiveness. I've got songs to record and a husband to go home to." He closes the door.

Kassandra goes back into her band's studio, deflated, and tells the girls what Andy said.

"He's right," Emily says, and Phoebe glares at her. "I'm sorry, but he is! How d'you think he got to where he is today?"

"By releasing good songs," Phoebe answers.

"No, Phoebe, not just because of that. Because he's someone people can respect and look up to. No offense, but you aren't."

"Oh, thankyou!"

"Just fuckin' accept it, for god's sake! If you won't listen to Andy goddamn Biersack then there's no hope."
