{POV: Y/N}

Neither of us knew what time it was at the moment. We just knew it was morning. The light began to flow into the room as the sun began to peak over the neigbouring buildings.

We can hear a conversation taking place in the room outside of the room we're in. I can tell it's Mike and Ad. I can hear the conversation become inpatient. They must be waiting for us?

MCA gets out of bed. He goes to a pile of clothes and picks out pieces of an outfit. He looks back at me and motions for me to get dressed too.

He starts to talk to me as we get dressed.

"We're going to the recording studio today" He said while smiling at me and buttoning his pants.

"Oh! Uhm... do you want me to come with you?" I asked thinking about what I would do if he said no.

"Yeah! I want to to come with us" He happily replied.

We got dressed and walked out of the room together. Mike and Ad's conversation quickly got quiet when they saw us. The two of them silently got up and moved to the door we followed as they walked to the hall.

We all got into MCA's car and he drove us to the recording studio. Mike and Ad had an indistinct conversation in the back of the car while we sat in silence the front.

When we got there everyone's excitement was clear. I quickly realized this was their first recording session in what might've been a long time.

We got into the room we were going to be using today. The four of us sat down on a couch and the three boys began a long conversation with the men that were here to help them record.

After their conversation that felt like forever the  boys stood up. The three of them looked really happy.

"Okay! Let's do this!" Mike exclaimed loudly.

They started to record a song I had never heard of before. They had a working title for it but I clearly wouldn't have heard that title because they were gonna change it in the future. The instrumental didn't match up with anything I had heard before. The lyrics didn't match up with heard before.

They said that they were done with the song for today and they wanted to work on something different. They started to record some of Paul Revere. I tried to contain myself as I sat while I watched a song I love be recorded.

I smiled as MCA came out of the booth where they recorded their vocals and walked towards me. He was smiling too. He sat next to me and put my head on his shoulder. He held my hand.

Mike D looked over at us from a swivel chair he was sat on. He winked and smiled at MCA. I didn't even realize it was happening but I had fallen asleep on his shoulder. When I woke up I found that they had started on another song, The New Style.

MCA looked over at me and saw that I was now awake.

"I have to get up now" He whispered to me.

"Okay" I replied tiredly.

I lifted my head from his shoulder. He started talking to the techs and was giving them input and what he wanted the songs to sound like. I saw him mess with some knobs and he seemed happy about the outcome.

"I think that's really enough today" Ad said.

"We just got a late start... because of those two" Mike said while motioning at us.

We left after everyone said their goodbyes. MCA dropped Ad off where he lived and he drove the three of us back to their apartment.

I don't know what happened but any of the tension that had been between MCA and Ad suddenly had gone. They talked at the recording studio like nothing had happened last night. Maybe MCA and Ad had actually talked earlier in the morning or at some point in the same night?  I don't know what resolved the anger MCA felt last night but I'm glad he's not feeling that way anymore.
