The Alts had finished their Livestream during "All You Wanna Do," and had spent most of their time on their phones. Ashley sat next the the right wing. She loved hearing the Queens give it their all during principle cast days.

Unfortunately, she was listening to the climax of the song, and Ashley hated that.

She heard Aimie giving her all, but the fact that Ashley could hear her pain made her feel scared. No one was there, but Aimie's voice echoing through made Ashley terrified.

She ran from the wings and into the nearest room, slamming the door behind her.

"Ashley? Babes, is that you?"

She was in her dressing room, and Vicki was there on her phone.

"Hey. What's up?"

She didn't want to tell her, but something made her mouth move.

"All You Wanna Do. I just- I-"

"Say no more," Vicki said, "We know that song's triggering, and you don't need to tell us why. Hey, wanna watch something?"

Ashley nodded. Vicki pulled out her phone and showed Ashley a video.

"My MegaSiX? Why would I wanna see that?"

Vicki smiled. "I saw the comments about you, and I know they're hurtful, but I want you to watch yourself. You were having so much fun!"

Ashley took Vicki's advice and watched the video. She watched as the recorded her danced with happiness, and she smiled.

"I love how happy I am. How I just wanted to finish the performance with a smile."

She watched as she and Aimie overlapped, and then it was Ashley's turn. She could hear the crowds going wild.

"Why are they cheering," Vicki asked.

"Because they pity me."

"No! Queenie, that's wrong. Many of them didn't know you were American, in fact, they looked it up afterwards, I think. But they were cheering because they loved you. During I Don't Need Your Love, the theatre was so loud, I thought something might break! That's how much people loved you today. Just because some people hated you doesn't mean the whole world does."

Ashley thought about that. Had she known that sooner, her life wouldn't have been so dark.

"Yeah, thanks, Vick."

"No problem. So, do you wanna eat something?"

Ashley shook her head. "I just want some space."

Vicki nodded and left the room. Ashley replayed and rewatched that MegaSiX until her eyelids felt heavy. She turned off her phone and relaxed in her chair, with Millie's and Vicki's words echoing in her mind.
