an: the songs are all jumbled around in the story since i'm not actually following chase atlantic's song releases. so, songs will be mentioned based on how i want them.

"Tell me your name, I don't ever want to let you down. No, I just wanna kiss your lips in the rain."

Eren was sitting beside Jean as they were recording their instrumentals and co-writing the lyrics for one of the four songs they needed to come up with, "Jean, aren't these lyrics a little sappy?" He bluntly stated, "No."

Floch came out of the recording room, "Yeah, they are."

The door to the studio suddenly opened and there stood Levi. They all turned to face him and greeted him, "I think the lyrics are fine. Keep going."

Jean turned to look at Eren then cleared his throat, "Uh okay," he sang the other portion of the lyrics he wrote, "You know I'll pull you closer if you start to drown, drown. And then my hand meets your thighs with that look in your eyes, I can never forget."

He nodded, "Does this song have a name yet?" Jean had written the song with you in his thoughts but he knew you couldn't use your name, "Roxanne."

"Hmm," he folded his arms, "What other songs have you written?"

"Slow Down, Paradise, and Moonlight."

"Play them." They played them all since they had already prepared their instrumentals like always and just needed the lyrics. Jean had been motivated the past week and a half so he was able to create songs with the help of his friends and occasionally you when he called and talked to you late nights. For the past week and a half, they've been working nonstop to create songs before the deadline given to them by Levi. They wanted to show they didn't do things last minute and they were active when it came to making music.

He was beyond impressed by this group that had been brought to him by Yelena. They would be the new face of his company in no time. He grinned slightly, "Good job, you managed to finish early. Email me the copies of your lyrics so I can get them approved on the different music platforms."

Jean smirked, "Yes sir."

"Also, Yelena will tell you the plan for tomorrow evening. Make sure to dress appropriately." The boys looked at each other in confusion but then nodded. Levi left the room and Eren immediately started questioning Jean, "What is he talking about?"

"No idea."

Floch leaned against the wall near the control system, "Whatever it is, it must be important if we have to dress up."

Jean agreed, "Yeah. Did anyone happen to pack a suit or two?"

Eren scoffed, "Yeah, right." They knew exactly what they had to do now. Tuxedo shopping. They called up their manager and she set up a meeting with a successful suit store owner who would be able to make their suits in less than 24 hours. They stood on the round podium and got measured. After that, they picked their desired colors and patterns if they wanted it. They were having the time of their lives with this new feeling of being someone important. Yelena had also been measured for a suit, taking the longest because of the length of her limbs.

The cost of everything was going to be paid through Levi so they took this as the chance to exploit him of his billions of dollars. They chose the most expensive material to make their suits with. Yelena realized what they were doing and slapped them each on the back of their head. They asked the owner to make what he thought was best.
