Butterfly

Drunken brawls. One-night stands. No-show interviews. Toilet-papering my hoity-toity neighbor's house. Insulting my fans. Trashing hotel rooms. What's it take to become public enemy number one? I just told you. I've done all that and more. My poor conduct got me on the Celebs Behaving Badly list and ultimately ruined my career. From the world's number-one popstar to world's most hated. That's me. Ten Stark. Go underground, they said. Stay out of the spotlight. Most importantly, stay out of trouble. Everyone loves a good comeback story. For once, I listened. I met someone who didn't know my name, my face, or the bad behavior that defined me. She taught me I wasn't who everyone thought I was—everyone including me. Then someone whispered my name and things got messy, as they always do. Now I want her back. I'm not a caterpillar, but a butterfly. My wings are in full color, not just black and white. But first, I have to shed my cocoon and fly.
