It was so weird for me to be on this side of the promotion trip. I was so used to Brenda coming to my events, but I was excited to be able to support her on her biggest night yet. The Social Network was going to be a blockbuster hit and it was already getting critical acclaim. I was so proud of Brenda for being a part of something this big and I knew that it would only open the doors for her to have an even better career. All of her hard work building herself over almost her whole lifetime was going to finally pay off. I wouldn't have missed this moment for the world. Nothing was going to keep me from her side, not even the romantic scenes I knew she was going to have with more than one guy

It came time for us to go inside and see the movie finally. I was anxious to see it, but I was still a little apprehensive at the same time. I could do this thought. It was just acting, I chanted in my head. The film was pretty interesting and not obnoxiously dramatic like I feared it might have been. Brenda came on screen a few times and I was excited to see her each time. I had to make sure to tell her what a good job she did after it was over. I knew I would be killed if I started talking now. I smiled as I saw her come onto the screen again, but the smile quickly faded when it register than she was in the room alone with Andrew. I felt she squeeze my hand, and I knew that this must be it. I squeezed back in nervousness and would have returned her statement of love, but her tongue down another man's throat distracted me. I thought I could do it, I really did, but seeing her kissing, pleasing, and enjoying someone else for everyone to see was far too much for me to deal with

I felt his hand loosen from around mine as the movie went on. I slowly started to feel awful and eventually I just moved my hand from his and sat there looking at my hands. I slowly stood up with the lights and looked up at Joe with a small smile, hoping that he liked it. "So...what did you think?" I asked softly as I grabbed my purse. My smile fell completely as he told me I was very convincing in that low voice that he has when he's angry. I flinched a little and nodded as I turned and walked out, feeling crushed. I could tell that he thought I was a whore now and there was nothing that was going to change his mind about that tonight. "What's wrong?," I whispered to him gently but he told me things were fine. I wanted to call him a fucking liar because I knew he was and also because he hurt my feelings and I wanted to yell at him. But I couldn't let that show as I walked through the door. I plastered a smile that didn't meet my eyes on my face and walked over to talke with Jesse and Justin and Andrew. I hugged them all and laughed

"How many of those have you had?" I asked as I watched her grab a drink from the waiter. She only got like that after she'd had a few. I didn't think it was a good idea for her to be drinking now. There were too many people around that she wouldn't want to accidentally embarrass herself in front of. I'd managed to have a good night considering everything. I made a good impression on some pretty important people and hopefully some lunches and meetings would come out of it. If not, at least they knew that I wasn't what all the tabloids and rumors say that I am and I can actually hold my own
