𝗧𝗪𝗢!

"𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦?" Arabella asks her band mates. she starts singing, "i've got a figure like a pinup, got a figure like a doll, don't care if you think i'm dumb, i don't care at all, candy vest, sweetie pie, wanna be adored, i'm the girl you'd die for, I chew you up and, I spit you out, cause that's what your love is all about, so pull me closer, and kiss me hard, i'm gonna pop your bubblegum heart."

They all smile. "That was great Ara." Mary compliments.

"Thank you. I still need some help with a lot of it, I only have parts here-and-there. Then once I get the lyrics we can figure out instrumentals."

Marlene squeals. "It's gonna be so good."

"Wait I have an idea- the beat could go something like this:" Lily says and she starts play a beat on her guitar.

She plays it like this:  Cc, Eb, Fm, Ab, Bb, Cm.

"Yeah that sounds great!" Arabella exclaims.

"What's the song gonna be called? The bubblegum theme is super cool so we should stick with that." Dorcas says.

"Yeah I was thinking maybe like "Bubblegum Heart" or "Kiss Me Bubblegum", I don't know yet though."

"What about Bubblegum Bitch?" Marlene asks. "It really gives the badass vibe to this song."

Arabella and Dorcas laugh at her. "You're not wrong." Dorcas says. Marlene smiles at the dark-skin girl.

"Well then, let's get back to work." Mary says as she claps her hands together.

"𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗔𝗕𝗢𝗨𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦?" Sirius asks as he starts to play the bridge of their song "Florescent Adolescent", but instead using the tempo.

"Woah, Siri, that sounds really good." Remus says with a smile and a look if adoration.

"Thanks Rem." He smiles back. "You guys wanna run through it again? Full out with the new idea too?"

James grins. "Why of course dear Paddy."

Sirius rolls his eyes and The Marauders get ready to start.

Peter begins, then Remus, with Regulus and Sirius. Then finally, James.

"You used to get it in your fishnets, now you only get it in your nightdress, discarded all the naughty nights for niceness, landed in a very common crisis.
Everything's in order in a black hole, nothing seems as pretty as the past though, that bloody mary's lacking in tabasco, remember when you used to be a rascal.
Oh the boys a slag, the best you ever had..."

Once they finish the song, all five of their faces are adorned with smiles.

"I cant wait, we are going to blow this out of the water." James says.

"We definitely are! We sound great!" Peter exclaims.

"Well boys, I'm off." Remus states. "Great practice, see you all tomorrow. Goodnight."

Regulus turns to check the time and see that it's already 11.

"I should probably go too." Peter states. "Goodnight."

"Goodnight." The three chorus back as they make their way inside.

Regulus and Sirius' family life isn't- wasn't the greatest. Because James was Sirius' best friend, him and Regulus ran away to his house. All to get away from their wretched family.

"Goodnight." Regulus says as he walks up the stairs.

"Goodnight Reg."

"Goodnight."

𝗔𝗥𝗔𝗕𝗘𝗟𝗟𝗔 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗔𝗡𝗦. "I can't think of anything for the bridge, Marlene." She turns to where Marlene was sitting on the couch in their apartment, the other band mates had left a while ago. "Marls?" Arabella then realizes Marlene is sleeping and playfully rolls her eyes.

She sighs and hums the same beat that Lily played earlier.

"What if- it's like "i think i'm gonna be my biggest fan" like the whole point of the song is that we're the best right?" She wonders out loud.

"I need more though, "I think I want your American tan," Perfect!" She starts to sing. "I think I want your, your American tan, oh, oh, oh, I think I'm gonna be my biggest fan, oh, oh, oh" She squeals in excitement.

"Then a guitar solo by Marls... she'll definitely like that." The green-eyed girl continues to write the song. Not stopping.

The next morning, Arabella is still awake, a cup of coffee on the table beside her.

"Did you stay awake all night?" Marlene asks while rubbing her eyes.

Arabella scoffs. "Pft no." Marlene raises an eyebrow, and Arabella sets down the paper and pencil that were in her hand. "Okay maybe I did- but- but," she says and Marlene tries to cut her off. "I finished the song."

Marlene blinked a few time before actually registering what her best friend had said. "No way. No fucking way, Ara." she wore a huge grin on her face.

"I also wrote out the sheet music for everyone else too."

"You are literally the best person to ever fucking exist Ara." Arabella laughs.

"Why thank you, darling."

𝗥𝗘𝗚𝗨𝗟𝗨𝗦 𝗪𝗢𝗞𝗘 𝗨𝗣 𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗟𝗬. Maybe because of his old life, he was accustomed to it. Or maybe he was just an early riser. He never really got to find out for himself.

He walks quietly down the stairs of the Potter Manor, careful not to wake anyone up. Once he gets to the kitchen, he makes himself a cup of coffee and hums to himself.

"just sounding it out, you're not coming back again" He quietly sings under his breath, the song his band had practiced hours before still stuck in his head.

Just then, Sirius walks down the stairs, rubbing his eyes. Regulus grins.

"Good morning, sleeping beauty." Now one thing about Sirius is-

"Oh fuck off." -he is not a morning person.
