Chapter 6
Friday 16th August, 1994

"You still mad at me?" Liam's asking me from behind the recording mic.

I roll my eyes at him for probably the millionth time "What do you think, Liam?"

It's been about two months since me and Liam called it quits and I, very proud of myself by the way, haven't folded. Of all of the sneaky attempts he's tried to get me into fancying him again, I have ignored them and tried to move on with my life. Even Noel's proud of me. I don't usually last two months. Though iI'll admit, I can't stay mad at Liam forever, that's way too hard for me, he's Liam, it doesn't matter how many times i've tried i can't stay mad at him forever. So I guess you could say we're just friends. He's not my favourite person on the earth right now, but I can tolerate him. I gave him about a month of pain and ignorance from me but now, i'll let him off. He still wants me back though, it's obvious.

"I dunno, you talk but- you're not exactly nice."

I flash a quick smile at Liam before my face drops again. "Be happy I'm actually talking to you."

He's definitely surprised at how I've dealt with it all this time. I guess he never really thought I'd stay true to my word, though then again, when did I ever before? I should expect this from him.

"Okay Miss 'I hate everyone.'" Liam raises his eyebrows so I do it back as Noel comes in behind me.

He sighs immediately "I swear to god, I went away for five minutes to do a piss and have a fag and you cunts get nothing done." Noel walks over to the chair beside me behind the mixing desk and takes a seat. "Did yous record anything? Did you do anything useful?" Noel looks around for an answer but doesnt get one. Whoops.

"Whoops got a bit distracted Noel." I react.

Noel scoffs and mutters under his breath "I'm the only one that does things around here."

I butt in straight away, offended "Eh, excuse me I do a shit load of stuff too. Me and you both know you wouldn't have been able to make half of this album without me. Nevermind fucking Live Forever."

Oh yeah, about Live Forever, we just released it. Our new single. And oh my fuck did it do well. Number ten in the UK charts now and has peaked number two in the US. We never would have expected it to go all the way over to America, though Noel and Liam argue otherwise and say that 'they knew it was coming'. It was a complete shock to me. Like, it's actually happening, Oasis. Right now. God knows where the fuck we're gonna go now. Our music video is all over the TV, more and more press are appearing and more gigs are selling out. I'll admit, I am a little nervous for our future but also dying of excitement, and I can feel it in the band as well, as if everyones on edge and just waiting to see what's gonna happen when we drop our debut album, Definitely Maybe.

Noel accepts my argument and agrees with me "Alright, alright, fair enough but you're gonna need to start pulling your weight in the band, you've started slacking."

"Jesus, Noel you sound like my mum," I say as I turn in my chair to face the desk.

Noel just rolls his eyes at me now that he's fed up arguing and wants to get back to work. DespIte what I just said I guess Noel really does keep us all intact. Yes, we're all immature but Noel is kind of like the boss in a way, he makes a lot of the decisions.

"Right, another take?" Noel presses the button and asks Liam who's been sitting in confusion on what me and Noel have been bickering about.

"Again? Fine." Liam looks as if he's fed up with singing but we all know he loves it.

Noel presses the record button and starts up our Slide Away backing track for Liam to hear through his headphones.

Now me and Noel patiently sit through another seven minute recording of Liam singing his heart out to slide away. It sounds really sweet, actually. I'm not bored by it at all. In all honesty I could listen to Liam's voice all day. Even if I were so mad at him it wouldn't matter because his voice sort of has a kind of innocence in it, especially when he's singing something like slide away. Like he's not all aggressive and heartless and 'Liam Gallagher'. You know, it brings out who he really is, which in it all really is just a young boy from manchester. I guess that's why I can never stay mad at him.
