Chapter 6: The First Album: DNA

A/N: Oops I did it again with the ages. It's been another year, they're 19, 17 turning 18, and freshly 17. Y'all just bare with me ok? I got trumpet on then brain. Also, their new suits are up top they still have their visors and everything and their hair changes colors still.

Leigh's POV

"And we have an album!", Terrance, our recording manager announces as he gets done with the last song. We all cheer at the announcement and I take a sip of water. Kamille looks up from her phone as I send her a text and shakes her head. She would not pick what she wanted for dinner and I was real close to just getting whatever the hell I wanted and letting her starve. She sends me a text about ribs and I accept before she could change her mind again. I tuck my phone away showing her that I am not changing options again and she huffs. "Alright girls, now that we have the full album, we have to choose four singles. Well really three since DNA is the title track so we can make it a single. So lay 'em on me.", Simon says.

"Obviously the one with Missy. I would love to work with her again.", Jesy says. "I quite like Wings and would love to see a what concept they could make with it.", Perrie says from her place on one of the couches. "Change Your Life seems quite tear jerking. I say we should have a ballad.", Jade says. "I'm fine with those.", I shrug. "I'll get in with the filming studio and see where I can get you guys a schedule.", Simon says walking out on his phone. "That's a wrap for today girls. I'll email you about the vocals for the video, and the album should be out later today.", Terrance says. "Sounds good.", Jade nods adding it to her notes. "Also, Mille, I need you to stay behind so we can touch up some stuff.", he says looking to Kamille.

"Can't we do this tomorrow? We've been here since three am and if I don't get some food I'm fighting someone.", she says. I know by someone she means me so I step in to help. "Yeah you can do it tomorrow. We all deserve a break after months in the studio.", I say. "I guess. But tomorrow, nine am be here.", he says. "Done.", she says pulling me out the room. I pull my hood up as we walk out and take her hand. "Are you sure you want ribs?", she questions. "You've changed your mind twelve times and you change it again I will get whatever the fuck I want and let you starve.", I growl. "Ok chill. Damn.", she says rolling her eyes. I take her hand as we walk down the street before I hear a flash. "Did you hear that?", she questions. "Probably a pap.", I shrug. "You think they can see you?", she asks. "No but they see Little Mix's newest writer walking with her tall, muscular, boo.", I say wrapping my arm around her shoulder.

We get our food and sit outside since we've been inside all day. I crunch through the bone and sigh out. "That was amazing.", she says pushing her plate away. "We just sat down.", I say looking up. "I was there two hours longer than you were and I hadn't had breakfast.", she says chewing on a bone. I finish mine and leave the money before standing up and taking her hand again. "Where are we going now? We've the rest of the day off.", I say. "Whatever is fine. We could go do something.", she says. "We should go get your ring cleaned.", I say looking at it. She hold her hand up and I nod. "It's not sparkling in the light. That's a problem.", I say. "I put it in my notes but Terrance has been working me mad these last few weeks.", she groans.

"Yeah I'll tell him to ease up. No one is going to over work my girl right in front of me.", I say. "Thank you baby.", she says pecking my lips. My phone buzzes and I look down to see a notification from YouTube. "We officially have put out an album.", I say showing her. She claps her hands with a tired smile and leans on my chest. "Let's go back to my dorm and watch a movie or something.", she says. I duck away behind a building and wrap my arm around her before making a ice trail back to her dorm.

Perrie's POV

Tori and I sit in my dorm as I get the notification. "The album just dropped.", I say. "Let's listen.", she says. I put on the mix and hear Wings start to play. "Why do you sound like a man?", she questions. "Axel wanted to be a bitch but I still pulled through on the harmonies.", I answer. "We have interviews three days in a row and they're still taking calls.", I groan. "You're a super star now, you gotta expect it.", she chuckles. "I thought you wanted to do music too?", I question. "Eh. I might just do writing. I have someone asking me to do some songs for a tv show so I'll be doing that for the next few weeks.", she shrugs. "That's interesting right?", I question. "The show hasn't come out yet so I don't know but it's whatever and I get payed so.", she says.
