before. Not a band member, wife or child to be seen. The place was like a ghost town.
    Eden was at my desk, answering a call when I reached the top floor. Nate gently took my arm by the elbow and led me to the boardroom. There my parents and Brad were waiting. Jerry pulled a chair out for me with his stern fatherly look. Yep, I was in the shit so I dutifully sat on the offered chair.
    I turned to the soft sound of a click, Nate shutting the door and leaning on it. No escape.
    “ We know what happened Kaylee.”
    “ Blabbermouth.”
    Nate shrugged at me, rather disinterested in my disgust.
    “ We have no issue with you drinking but there is a limit. Drinking in excess and alone is not wise.”
    Jerry began to walk the length of the table, stopping behind El. His hand rested on her shoulder, she gripped it firmly as she looked up at him with a soft smile.
    “ You hurt yourself Kaylee, what if Jaxon hadn't rung you?”
    Yeah, what if. I wouldn't be miserable. I shrugged, it was the best answer I had at the moment.
    “ Right we want to ensure this doesn't happen again Kaylee. Do you need to be made to move back home?”
    I shook my head. Independence and the feeling that I was able to take care of myself had done well to boost the self-esteem. Going home would probably sink me further into depression.
    “ Do we have your assurances that there won't be a repeat performance?”
    I nodded, feeling the heavy weight of Jerry's gaze upon me.
    “ Nate will call you every night Kaylee, if he even suspects you're drunk then you'll be back home. Do you understand?”
    “ Yep.”
    “ Right.” he sighed. “We'll move onto the next point of contention about last night. You need to either do something or forget about him.”
    I almost said something. I almost said that I would give up on him rather than say something and be rejected. Except that someone tapped on the glass. Someone blonde and happy. Someone that had another someone with him. I stared at the woman with multicolored hair, like her sister she was gorgeous.
    Tears welled in my eyes as I looked at them.
    “ Nate.” Jerry hissed. “Get them out of here.”
    He was through the door in a second, I could hear the muffled sounds of him talking to them. The words, family meeting and intervention were being thrown around a bit.
    But the problem with living in each others pockets like this, people become accustomed to each other, people consider others a part of their family. So I guess I could understand why Jaxon would want to be a part of it. Considering that it wasn't just a family meeting but it was an intervention as well. And he was the one that caused it by calling me last night.
    “ You're having an intervention without the rest of us? Don't you people know how to run these things?”
    He sat himself into a chair, parakeet hair leaned on the glass wall. I turned to the windows, wiping the tear that had fallen onto my cheek. Silence had hit the table and I wished that this nightmare would end.
    “ You know I think I'm done with it.”
    I wiped another tear and looked to my parents, well my adoptive parents. They always meant well, they loved me from the very first moment. And they were always right, no matter how much I might argue or fight against what I believed was wrong. Because they were right, about the alcohol and Jaxon. I was wasting my life.
    “ On both points of contention.”
    I stood from the chair and looked down the table to their sympathetic smiles.
    “ Nate's cleaned the apartment and uh, offered help with point two so I'm good. Thank you for your concern.”
    I walked out of the boardroom and relieved Eden from doing my duties. Jaxon was asking them what the second point of contention was, unable to figure out what my issues were. No one answered him which brought him to my desk.
    Deep blue eyes bored down at me as he leaned on the counter. The parakeet had settled herself onto the lounge, doing something on her phone. Her hair was pretty awesome,
