I wake up, my phone buzzing repeatedly next to my face, which was laying on the desk I was working at and passed on.
I sit up with a sore neck and my eyes squinting at the brightness of the lamp thats still burning. Picking up my phone which is filled with messages from lots of different people
"Dylan" Tom shouts storming into the place
"What?" I say sleepy
"You can't just publish the songs by urself" he tells me and I look at him confused, trying to wake myself up completely.
"What?" I say confused rubbing my eyes before grabbing my phone
"You published your song on Spotify" he tells me
"Wait what?" I say and he hands me his phone with an article from the new open
Dylan Van Hout surprises fans with a new song release out of nowhere and it may be his best work yet.
"Oh my god, I must have posted it when I passed out. Fuck" I say opening my spotify after handing him his phone back
"Hey, its all good, I posted it on youtube, Apple music and all that. You're lucky man, this one is definitely gonna be on the charts" he pats my back
"It was an accident I just passed out.." I repeat opening up the messages on my phone
Theo:
You wrote a fucking song about us?
Are you out of your fucking mind?
It hasn't even been a day!
At leastLet me explain.
You will be hearing from my lawyer
Mom:
Your new song is amazing sweetheart ❤️
I feel with you, the lyrics is so meaningful...
Nice Track guy🏎️:
Good morning! I hope you didn't stay up to late,
I saw your name all over the news. It's really
catchy! I hate you felt that way tho, its not
lovely at all.
"You okay there?" Tom asks me as my emotions go up and down reading the messages
"Yeah... My parents love the song... however Theo hates it and I'll hear from his lawyer" I tell them and close my phone again hiding my face in my hands
"Hey, we don't care about Theo, no one knows who the song is about, there's nothing he can do" Tom says calmly sitting on the desk, but I still worry
"Whats on your mind?" He asks me kicking his foot against my knee
"I don't know, what if im not ready to get a hit and get that massive public image" I let out with a sigh
"Listen, I'll still be around thats not gonna change. More people will just look up to you and may spot you randomly on the streets more. Just be urself and enjoy" he says
"I need to get back home tho, I was supposed to come home yesterday" I groan getting up, grabbing my keys from the table
"You need to manage some of the cover art for your next album and this single tho, I'll get everything else sorted, don't worry about it" he tells me
"Thanks man, I'll see you" I smile and walk out and get into my car and open my messages
