Save Kris Baker (Part 1)

  I finally got to the movie premiere

  (Thank God)

  Like, It literally took me hours just to get here too

  Traffic in this city is crazy

  But tonight, nah it was something else

  Probably because of this stupid movie premiere, cause

  DAMN

  There are alot of people here

  And I mean A-LOT

  Anyways,

  I put on a hoodie (Hood on just to be safe)

  Wore a nose masks

  And moved in,

  trying to blend in with the crowd

  Not like anyone would notice me anyways

  As I shuffled through

  I quickly realized how much I hated being in crowded places like theses

  I mean besides the flashing lights from the cameras

  Everyone recording on their phones

  And the shoving, the yelling…

  And…well…

  mostly the yelling (Like It's 9pm, shouldn't you be at home BREASTFEEDING YOUR KIDS, MA'AM)

  sorry my thoughts were wild back then,

  (and they still are *light chuckle*)

  Anyways, the overall being in a crowded space thing

  Yeah…

  not a huge fan

  I finally got to the front for a better view

  So…

  I kept my hood low

  Head lowered

  hands in my pockets,

  And my shoulders tucked

  like that’ll make me invisible.

  I looked around hoping to find Kristen

  And/Or maybe her idiot boyfriend or manager

  Then…I see her.

  Kristen Baker steps out of a white limo and onto the carpet

  The crowd goes WILD

  Like come on

  It almost blew my eardrums

  And I handle firearms for a living

  Reporters call out her name wanting an interview.

  She smiles almost immediate—and perfect too,

  Almost too perfect

  Like, that's the kind of smile you rehearse in the mirror every morning until your face starts hurting.

  And she also looks…different.

  She doesn't look like the young lady at the gas station earlier.

  Her Hair done.

  Makeup looks great (and that's coming from a guy who hates them)

  And that Dress…

  It's looks expensive…

  Expensive enough to feed the homeless for a year.

  And yet…

  She doesn't…look happy in a way

  Just a hunch but,

  She just looks like she doesn't want to be there

  I mean

  Her posture is kinda stiff.

  Like she’s bracing for something.

  I know that stance

  …I know it all to well

  Then

  they FINALLY showed

  That idiot Freddy and his manager

  Both wearing a smong smirk and just engaging with the crowd with it

  Man, the urge not to jump over this security barrier and punch both of them in the face is killing me, right now

  But I gonna keep my cool

  I can't be reckless

  Especially in public

  One of the interviewers came up to both Kristen and Freddy

  Asking them questions

  I couldn't hear much because of the noise but, I could still piece together of what they were talking about

  So Ms. Baker, the interviewers said, earlier today a video surfaced online of you and your boyfriend, fighting at a gas station of all places is currently trending right now, and the audience wants to know what happened back there?

  Before Kris could speak,

  She was rudely interrupted by that idiotic manager

  He even grabbed the mic out of the interviewer’s hand

  What is this? An interview or a couples therapy session?

  Move aside Jack, as he stares directly at the camera

  If you PEOPLE want to ask questions, ask about the movie

  The stars IN that movie

  And The damn ticket sales

  Because

  LADIES AND GENTLEMAN WE JUST SOOOOOOOOOLD OUT

  The crowd erupts again

  As if they couldn't be louder already

  And all that was possible due to the hard work and popularity

  Of this power couple

  The fans clapped

  While my blood just begins to boil

  Then by pure coincidence

  While Kristen's eyes were on the crowds our eyes met.

  Normally I expected her to just look away but, she just kept on staring at me

  Like I owe her money or something

  Did she…recognize me?

  No way maybe she was just paranoid

  After awhile she turned her attention back to the interviewer

  Fake Smiling again

  Then the manager continued still with his corky voice

  Hell,

  You don't even need to take my word for it

  I'll let them demonstrate

  I saw Kris gulp a little (are the fans seeing this?)

  Demonstrate? I said to myself confused, What the fuck does this sicko got planned?

  Come on show them why no couples can detour y'all, the manager start with a that stupid grin

  Then Freddy

  Put both his hands around her waist

  Giving this stupid cheesy smile

  Then…

  He KISSED HER

  Like…

  It happened so fucking fast

  I even thought I blinked

  Kristen was obviously not into it,

  heck she was surprised by this (and not in a good way)

  I mean her eyes were wide open and her body language says it all

  but…

  She closed her eyes and continued on

  She even wrapping her arms around his neck

  Man…she's in too deep

  Oh…, The manager continued as the crowd watches on the two couples

  and you see, what really happened back there,

  At the gas station…

  was nothing short of an act to market the movie

  I mean

  Look at theses two

  Do they really look like a couple that would fight at a local gas station, fam?

  NOOO!! the crowd replied

  See…,the manager said extending his hand almost like he's praising the crowd

  Now next time…

  Watch how you ask questions around my client and his future Mrs.

  You got that? Keyboard warriors?

  We out, he said as he tossed the mic back to the interviewer

  Hey love birds let's get in

  They walked along the red carpet to the building as the cameras flashes on them

  And that stupid Freddy grabbing Kris’s hand as they walk along

  She then glazed at me again

  But this time

  …Longer

  before looking forward and walking along with them

  That's it,

  I couldn't wait

  It's time to make a move

  I just need to figure out how to get backstage

  And get her out, I said to myself as I took off my mask (It was kinda giving me a hard time to breathe so…*shrug*)

  I was walking back to think about what my next move should be

  then…

  A person in a hat bump into me, Hard

  Hey, can't you see I am walking here? I said with low effort

  No reply

  I thought maybe he's some kind of thug or a fan (who knows)

  So not looking for a fight or anything

  I just simply said, while walking off

  Not trying to be rude but, just watch where you stepping next time

  …Sorry, the person says in a ladylike low tone voice

  Wait he–

  I mean…she's a woman? I thought to myself surprised

  I wasn't thinking straight, she said as she gave me a soul piercing glare

  Then she just walked off

  Into the crowd

  Like some kind a ghost

  I remember standing there for about 10mins

  Thinking how weird that felt

  I mean I wasn't scared or anything but

  …Her aura

  …It…it kinda give me chills a bit

  Just a bit though

  I don't know what it was about her but that's not my concern now

  I got a plan to…well...plan
