Thank you again @bridgeportbritt for the invite to Simdonia. You gave BK a reason to get back on that stage she knows she was missing lol

On March 31st, 2019 #bfeelstheburn marked our first collaboration post. This crossover took us on a beautiful journey and you all came along for the ride. Now our stories and styles have evolved and creatively taken different directions so, we came up with this awesome idea. Spin-offs!  We hope you continue to follow @ladybugsimblr for the fun, heartfelt, comedic version of the story, and @therichantsim for more sim soap opera drama. Thank you for joining us both on our sim adventures. Sul Sul.

Lyric: Mom, can we talk for a second? Bailey: Of course Lyreebabe. You nervous about the Starlights tomorrow? Lyric: No… a little. l… I’m nervous about a bunch of things. Bailey: Uh oh. Sit. Tell me.

Lyric: (deep breath) So you know how you’ve been asking me if everything is ok and I just said yes but that’s not true because everything is kinda a lot and I’ve been keeping things from you and I didn’t want you to be mad and stressed so I just held it in and I- Bailey: Lyric. Baby breathe. Start again. Slowly.

Lyric: (another deep breath) I have a boyfriend. Bailey: A boyfriend?? Who?? Lyric: Zaire. Bailey: Ohhh the boy who used to be annoying and then you started texting 24-7. Lyric: Yeah. Bailey: Is he also the amazing basketball player whose name you said you didn’t know? Lyric: I- yes. Bailey: And how long has this been going on? Lyric: Not that long. I mean we’ve been talking for a while but he asked me to be his girlfriend on Love Day. Bailey: Love Day. That sounds serious Lyree. Lyric: I like him a lot. I promise we’re not doing anything crazy. We just see each other at school and we kiss that’s it. We did have one kinda date after Scouts. Bailey: (brain. short. circuiting)

Lyric: Are you mad? Bailey: I… I think I’m more hurt than mad. Clearly you like this boy. I mean you kissed him, made it official and didn’t tell me anything. Lyric: I’m sorry Mom. I wanted to tell you but you said no to dating and I didn’t want to lose him before we had a chance for real. Bailey: Lyree…

Bailey: I don’t understand why you felt you had to hide it from me. We promised we wouldn’t have that kind of relationship. Lyric: I didn’t mean to. At first I was just scared about getting in trouble and then so much started happening on top of that. I was trying to show you I could handle everything. But I started feeling bad about not talking to you and then I didn’t know how. Bailey: Baby, when I say you can always come and talk to me I mean it. I’m here for the fun convos and especially the difficult ones. You never have to handle things on your own. Lyric: But you’re dealing with a lot and I didn’t want to add to it. Bailey: Whatever I’m dealing with is me and your Dad’s job to worry about. All I need you to do is focus on school and keep slaying the new things you’re exploring. I don’t want you ever stressing over my drama and definitely not these musty boys. Lyric: He’s not like them. He smells really good Mom.

Bailey: Oh my sprung babygirl... My point is any boy right now is just supposed to be the cherry on top in your life, not the main dish. Like an accessory. The extra piece of jewelry to your fresh off the runway fit. Lyric: Omggg Bailey: Ok serious Mom Voice. You’re growing up but you’re not grown yet. Following the rules we set up and working with us when you feel like you want more freedom is what actually shows us you’re maturing and we can trust you. Lyric: l get it.

Bailey: And for the record, I might be disappointed in some of your choices, but I’m proud of the decision you made today to come to me. Bailey: I love you. Lyric: l love you too.

Bailey: I want to meet Mr Zaire. ASAP. Lyric: Ok. Bailey: And we need to tell your father… Lyric: Do we have to?

Just one of them daaaaays. Lyric didn't even get to fully enjoy the honor of being nominated before the internet/hater noise mixed in with the Mom and boyfriend shenans already in her brain. Forgetting about Picture Day was the biggest indicator that all was not well in her world. The only thing our girl could do was attempt to cry it out.

Rebi talked her way out of time out. You knew.

Quinton: A tag team attack… Why do I feel like you two are about to ask for red carpet choreography or something? Bailey: That sounds like a great idea actually. Quinton: Hard no for me! Bailey: Sir. Whatever. You're the one that brought it up. Not us. Quinton: Not even a hint of a smile Lyree? It’s that serious? Lyric: Yeah… kinda. Quinton: Oh my bad. Have a seat. Talk to me.

Lyric: I’ve been talking to a boy from school and I really like him and he likes me too. Quinton: Is this the dusty texter or raggedy point guard? Lyric: Daaad. Quinton: Are they the same boy? Lyric: Yes but he’s nice and smart and funny. And he likes art. Quinton: Riiiight. Continue.

Lyric: I… uhh… messed up… and I met up with him outside of school. Once. Quinton: Alone? Lyric: Yes. Quinton: Where? Lyric: Gibbi Point after Scouts. Quinton: (processing, silently screaming, throwing up, crying in the corner)

Quinton: So you met up in the forest alone with a random teenage boy? Lyric: It wasn’t like- Quinton: Lyric. Lyric: Yes. I’m sorry Daddy. Quinton: Sorry is not going to cut it. That was dangerous and could’ve gone very wrong. Lyric: I know. Quinton: Do you really? Lyric: Yes. I won’t do it again.

Quinton: Did he talk you into doing this? Lyric: No! It was my idea. Quinton: ... I'm disappointed. Lyric: I know I was wrong and I should’ve talked to you and Mom first about changing the dating rules.

Lyric: Can we talk about it now? Quinton: Definitely not. We can talk about consequences for lying and sneaking around though. Anything else maybe at a later date. Much later date. Lyric: I really am sorry Daddy. Quinton: I hear you and I believe you. And I appreciate that you came to us when you did instead of continuing to just do things your way. But… I’m not happy. We trusted you were doing the right things.

Quinton: Your Mom and I are gonna need a minute. We’ll come up to your room later. Lyric: OK. Quinton: The phone stays here. Lyric: But- Bailey: (shakes her head in don’t try him) Lyree. Quinton: I might have to ground you until you’re an elder but I still love you. Lyric: Dad. Love you too.

Once again Lyric saved by a distraction. But do we think all the mushy mother daughter talk was the final crack in the keeping secrets foundation?
