Los Angeles, CA Wednesday, May 5th- 9:37 a.m. Taylor's POV
The girls and I never finished up the conversation about Options and I was a bit relieved. I was pretty nervous about telling them the back story to Pull Up, I know they'll be heated if they find out. Anyway, I was currently sitting in this conference room waiting on the label to show up so that we can talk. It better be about my album release because if not, then I'm walking the hell up outta here. I start to reminisce as I look around the room.

I arrived at my aunts' house. Getting out of my car I walk up to the door and start making a beat on it. My aunt Nicki opens the door with the same annoyed look she's been giving me since I was 7 when I first started doing it. I laugh and step into the house greeting her.
"Hey OG, just the person I was looking for." She side eyes me knowing I usually come to her when I have girls acting crazy with me. I shake my head saying, " it's not even about nothing like that." She laughs throwing her head back, " You already know what I was thinking."
I sat at the island in the middle of the kitchen as she went back to stirring whatever was on the stove. "So, what's on your mind ladybug?" I look up at aunt Nicki blurting out the words that have been stuck in my head for months. "I want to drop out of school." Aunt Nicki stops stirring and turns to me slowly. Seconds passed, but it felt like hours as she just stared at me. It was like she was trying to read me, finally she spoke, "Why?"
"I just don't understand why I need to go, I know what career I want to pursue. I'm already featuring on big artist songs, so why do I have to keep going to school?" I ask looking her in the eyes. She sighed asking how long I've thought about dropping out. "A few months. I thought it was just because it was summer and once school started again that I'd be fine. But I still feel the same, I just don't feel like it's necessary."
She sat thinking for a minute before speaking up again. "Okay, I have a proposition for you. If you stay in school and graduate, I'll get you a meeting with Drake or Wayne and discuss a contract." I thought about it for a minute, on one hand that's at least eight months from now, but on the other hand it's a guaranteed meeting. I agreed to the deal and once I graduated from high school, aunt Nicki kept her word and I signed with Drake. I was hype about being on his label, that deal was one of my best decisions.
Flashback over..
I snap out of my daydream as the label finally walks through the door. They sit down and all look toward me and my manager saying a form of greeting. He returns the sentiments, but I'm just ready to start. "So, what's this meeting about?" I ask Mr. Morgan, the President of OVO. "We've came up with a release date and a date for your listening party." Finally.
I'm so happy, my fans and I have been waiting for this for thee longest. "Finally, when are the dates?" I ask eager to know. "The party will take place on the 22nd of this month at 8 p.m. and the album will be released on Friday, the 28th." I smile widely excited to share the news. "We want you to play Options, London, and 64' but perform Lost Ones and Pull Up."
