billie

constant torture.

"because someone here decided to kiss her girlfriend in a damn skydiving place for the whole damn world to record." justin sighed to the whole table.

"i don't regret it." i rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. "okay you don't regret it but do you understand how many times you said you were straight?"

"yes. and i was being honest at the time. things change." i shrugged and everyone rubbed at their forehead, obviously stressed.

"oh i have two new songs." i changed the topic and slid my projected my lyrics to the first one on the big screen. everyone took a moment to read my lyrics and i couldn't help but chuckle because i knew what their reaction was going to be.

"billie... what is this song about?" one of the interns asked and i giggled again, looking around at their confused faces.

"you want the truth or what im gonna tell the world?" i asked, unable to hold my laughter.

"the truth, billie..." someone from the label said and i laughed again, throwing my head back.

"it's about eating pussy...." a groan came across the the whole room and the intern snickered. "it's good right!" i pointed at her and she nodded, laughing.

"see! someone gets it!"

"billie you are not making this easy for us."

"people are gonna love it regardless and i really want it to go on the album." i gave them puppy eyes and everyone looked at steven, who ultimately decides and who's been oddly quiet this whole time.

"chelsea?" he asked my publicist and she was searching twitter. "well ive been looking and people are praising billie. like there's been a literal uproar." she said and i roll my eyes.

"okay then. but please pick an appropriate title." he pleaded with me and i smirked, "im thinking pearl."

"why pearl?"

"it's ameera's middle name." i said and justin shrugged.

"i love that... and does the world know her middle name?" steven asked and i shook my head. "it's perfectly ambiguous." he said and i nodded with a huge smile.

"go team!" i said sarcastically and threw my hand in the middle of the table. the intern jumped up, throwing her hand over mine excitedly. i died laughing and the others around the team looked at her like she was crazy.

"oh... i wasn't supposed to do that?" she asked and i fell out of my chair laughing. "i love you!" i shouted at her and she sat down in her chair, covering her face, embarrassed.

"billie! billie!" i heard and slowed down on my jog. i whipped around, pushing my sweaty bangs back.

"hi! im so sorry to interrupt but im a huge fan!" the girl with her hair in a curly bun said excitedly, her highlighter radiating in the sun.

"im kinda sweaty, but come here beautiful!" i panted and she squealed basically jumped into my arms. she was literally shaking and i rubbed her back.

"you smell so good," she complimented and i made up my face. "girl im literally sweating..." i said and she burst into laughter. her hands were shaking and i rubbed her shoulder.

"you look so familiar, you know.." i said to her and she smiled nervously. "ive never like been in anything," she said, shifting on her two feet under my gaze. i looked at her for a little longer and she laughed, her back shaking slightly. wait..
