This morning I woke up, not realising i'd fallen asleep on top of my bed with my towel still wrapped around me.
Cara and I went shopping and I finished unpacking everything in my room and we went out for food.
And here I am, sat in my bedroom staring blankly at the wall. Cara is my best friend and I love her but her personality is so big and happy. And well... im not used to it. I didn't have many friends before I left home, I dropped out of college after my book blew up. I mean, I was unhappy and I didn't need to be at college anymore.
I remember I need to message Finneas, but well.. I'm scared. This opportunity is huge but nobody knows who Angel Monarch is. Im not ready to share my identity and I don't think I ever will be.
I decide to go with a simple 'hey finneas its angel monarch, my manager gave me your number' rather than something too extreme. While I wait for his reply, I decide to go on my instagram and check my tagged photos and see a bunch of photos of people sharing photos of themselves with my book or merchandise or their favourite pages. I repost a couple on my story and like and comment on a few posts, letting them know I appreciate their support. I have a look at my dm requests, seeing hundreds of people messaging me about the book or random questions. i keep scrolling and spot a dm from @billieeilish
oh my fucking god
okay don't freak
she's just a person
I click onto her profile and press the follow button, scroll through her photos, seeing a bunch of her and her boyfriend, some random photoshoots and awards or announcements. The last time I followed a verified user on twitter my fast went crazy, thinking I was collating so I scroll through and follow a bunch of celebrities, including Finneas so it doesn't look obvious.
I click on her dm and its just a simple 'hey'
what do i put?
i don't wanna sound weird
omg
think, gabrielle think
I just reply with a simple 'hi'
Finneas replies to my message so I tap onto my text messages and read the paragraph he sent me.
finneas o'connell
Hi, yes this is Finneas. I'm not sure whether your manager explained but Billie and I would love to potentially collaborate together, writing a song. Lisa explained to me you'd like to remain anonymous so I have an idea while you think about my offer. if you have an email I can send you through some song ideas and things we've been working on and feel free to email back with some suggestions or lyrics you want to add.
