*JAYDEN'S POV*
After filming about five scenes for the day, I decided to go to a nearby studio that I could work on some of my music in. I figured I could work on some music still while I have free time.

"There you are! You're not gonna get some rest? We had a pretty long day today of work."

I heard Jenna's voice ask. She must've followed me on the way over here. I looked at her in confusion.

"I figured I can still work on my first love while I have free time. I just finished recording a new song. Wanna hear it?"

"Yeah, of course I do! I'd love to."

Jenna then sat down in the empty chair next to me, watching as I replayed the song through the speaker. Once I knew it was on, I turned it up loudly.

"This what happen when I think 'bout chu,
I get in my feelings, yeah,
I start reminiscing, yeah,
Next time around, fuck I want it to be different, yeah,
Waiting on a sign, guess it's time for a different prayer,

Lord please save her for me,
Do this one favor for me,
I had to change my player ways,
Got way too complicated for me,
I hope she's waiting for me,
Everywhere she go, they playing my song,
That's why I say the things that I say,
That way, I know you can't ignore me,
But so, so,

So gimme all of you in Exchange for me,
Just gimme all of you for Exchange for me, for me,

Break it down, yeah,

Yes sir, check,

We used to lay up and then stay up,
Have sex and then blow dank,
I shouldn't have played no games with you,
Just leveled up my rank,
Last time I saw you we ain't speak, that was strange,
Guess it's nothing I can do, man it's true,
Exes change, yeah,
Guess you changed for the better,
I know you know how to make me jealous,
I was never loyal, let you tell it, yo,
But I'm ready to fix it if you ready, baby,
But so, so,

So gimme all of you in Exchange for me,
Just gimme all of you in Exchange for me,

For real, shawty,
Yeah, I know,

Yeah, is you at Two Keys or Tin Roof?
Turn up with young Jayden, we just getting loose,
Maybe, I'm low key feeling you, don't be cynical,
Won't fuck you over, wanna fuck you over and again,
The truth is, I ain't really here to start problems,
Girl I swear to God, them hoes can't ever say they got him,
Know how bad you wanna tell him, don't try him,
I don't wanna tell him, let's surprise 'em,
I don't wanna get into it, why you stressing him, I've been driving,
Back and forth, from Los Angeles to Texas, mileage,
On the whip, got your ass on my grip, college,
Make you wanna strip for them dollars,

Nah, girl, I gotta job for ya,
Swear to God I can do a lot for ya,
Saw you strolling through them movie sets, I had to stop for you,
I was scrolling on the gram, girl, I had to follow you,
Say wassup with you?

You got my soul.."

As the song finished, I looked over at Jenna for her reaction to my new song I just created.

"Soooo...? You're the very first one to hear this besides me. What do you think about it?"

"It's beautiful, Jayden. I love it, I really do. This is about Selena, huh?"

"Of course it is. Most of my music from now on is going to be about Selena. I'm telling you, my music? Is the only way I can cope and heal in a healthy way."

"I totally understand you. You do whatever works best for you. She's gonna make you an iconic album though, I tell you that one."

Jenna chuckled and stood up from the chair. I smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Thank you, I totally agree. Where are you going?"

"I'm gonna get some rest. We have another long day of work tomorrow. I'll see you tomorrow, Jayden."

"You know you don't always have to call me Jayden, right? You can always just call me Jay for short."

"Just like you can always call me Jenna or Jen. But you're always calling me Wednesday."

"Yeah. Because I love that nickname for you. No one calls you that except for me. That's why I like it."

"You know what? You're actually right. Goodnight, Jay."

"Goodnight, Wednesday."

I chuckled before turning away from Jenna as she walked out of the studio.

Things with Jenna actually feel pretty chill. Unlike how I've been feeling for the last few weeks.

Even before the breakup with Selena, I was feeling stressed. I felt like Selena wasn't fulfilling my needs, and Kali is just a headache that's on the side of me.

But with Jenna? She's a cool ass friend that I could see me having around for a long time. She doesn't judge me, she supports me, I can talk to her. We just know how to chill when we're together.

It feels nice feeling like this after so long of being stressed and depressed. With Jenna, I can actually be just Jay. Not thee Jayden Gooding the celebrity that always has to put on a front for the public.
