This morning started very early. We came to the studio at 7, our eyes barely staying open.

I barely slept at all last night, Davy kept playing on my mind, the look in his face when I said I wanted time apart. My heart burst into a million of pieces as a frown covered his features.

Breaking his heart is the last thing I wanted to do.

Right now, Jen is in the recording booth with her band while I sit behind the recording board with Donna. Our plan for this album is two weeks long, a song each day.

"How you feeling today?" Donna's question catches me off guard.

"Um, yeah I'm alright, just a bit down" I murmur tiredly.

"Give yourself a few days, the album will take over your mind, become your number one priority" Donna wraps her arm around my back, cheering me up as I lean into her embrace.

As I watch Jen belt out her song, I realise that I don't need a man always around me. I'm in love with the idea of being in love, but I have to admit I have fallen hard for Davy and I don't think I can't stop myself from falling.

By the time I had came be an around from my trance. Donna had hit the recording button and Jen stepped out the recording booth.

"How did it sound? Do I need to do it again? Where my vocals on point?" Jen begins to panic, making me smile at her.

"It was perfect, I'll spend some time just tweaking a few pieces, song one completed!" I shout at the top of my lungs making everyone cheer.

"Ugh, why did we have to get here so early? I feel like I could fall asleep" Jen throws herself onto the sofa with a thump.

"We needed on early start otherwise we'd be here over night, and I know you and Donna wouldn't like it cause you guys have lovers to tend to" I smirk as I watch a pink blush raise over their cheeks.

"Anyways, I'm gonna go to the shops, anyone wanna come" Jen brushes her hands around as she gets flustered.

"Yeah, I'll go with you, I'm craving some Doritos and salsa" I rub my stomach hungrily, my mouth watering as my stomach rumbles.

"I'll stay here, can I have a few snacks please!" Donna asks, I nod my head with a smile as I grab my bag.

"Alright, we'll be back soon" I call to Donna as we leave the studio. The warm LA breeze hits me soft, engulfing the coldness in my body.

"How you feeling? After the Davy business?" My body freezes as Jen mentions his name.

"Umm...a little better, just trying to keep myself occupied to stop thinking about him" I shrug my shoulders. I look up to Jen, her expression faltering into sadness as she looks at me.

"I'm worried about you, you're going through the heartbreak, producing an album all at once, you're like this superwoman who can carry the weight of the world on her shoulders and it doesn't bother, and I admire you for that." Jen's voice trails off as she looks down to the floor. My chest tightens, my lips trembling as slowly fallout my eyes.
