One Crazy Rollercoaster Part Three

Chapter 3: Collab

   I slowly blink open my eyes, Ritz's head still rested on my chest, and Lilac still laid between his shoulder blades. Adorable. I thought.

   Ritz opens his eyes and looks up at me. He smiles and I grin at him.

   "Hi." He says as he leans in and presses a sloppy kiss onto my lips, making Lilac jump off of him and onto the floor.

   "Hi Handsome." I say, grinning widely at him.

   "Shut up Cutie." He giggles, kissing me again.

   We lay like that for a while, before he separates our lips and connects them again. And again, and again...

   He grabs my thigh and rubs his hand along it, making me shiver. I swing my leg over his back and drape an arm over his neck as he lands kisses down mine.

   "Hey Ritz, Veneer? Are you awake?" Velvet's voice calls from the kitchen.

   Ritz sits up and positions himself to where he looks like he wasn't just doing what he was just doing.

   I sit up too, and Velvet strolls in and puts a hand on her hip. "What are you two doing?"

   "Oh, us?" I ask. "We've been here."

   She raises her eyebrow, but leaves it at that. "Well, you wouldn't believe who called."

   "Who?" I ask.

   "The Nightlight's." She says.

   I'm on my feet in a millisecond. "THE NIGHTLIGHT'S?!"

   "Yup." She says. "They wanna do a collab."

   I grin. The NIGHTLIGHT'S wanna do a collab with me and Vels?! Holy shit this is the best day of my life!

   "Whoa, the Nightlight's? Are you serious?" Ritz stands up and tilts his head his hip out and an eyebrow raised.

   "Yup!" Vels says proudly, smirking at the both of us. "They want to meet on Friday. I've already got Crimp on planning the schedule."

   I jump up and down like I was two and pulled Ritz into a tight hug, lifting him up with me. "OHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGODDDDD!!!" I exclaim. "ME AND VELVET ARE DOING A COLLAB WITH THE FUCKING NIGHTLIGHT'S!!!"

   Ritz grins and laughs. "That's great Venny, but I kinda need to breath."

   "Oh sorry." I loosen my grip but I don't let go.

   Eventually I put him down and he scoops me up and carries me bridal style passed Velvet.

   "RITZ!" I cling to him for dear life.

   "Oh you're fiiiiiiiiiiiine." He laughs.

   "NO I'M NOT!" I exclaim.

   "Are too. Now let's go finish what we were doing earlier." He says as he shuts the door to my room, locking it.

Velvet's perspective:

   Ritz carries Veneer up to Veneer's room. The door shuts and I hear the "click" of the lock.

   I knew that was what they were doing! I thought. Gross.

   I go up to my room and sit down on the bed with Orchid. "So what'cha wanna do?"

   "Well... I was kinda hoping to do some wedding planning?" She says.

   "Ooh! That sounds fun!" I say. Then I remembered that dress I'd seen on Pinterest when we'd been interviewed by that Nick guy that Ritz was friends with. That dress would be perfect. Even if it's red. Maybe I can get it in white with red highlights! Ooh that'd be gorgeous!

   "Vels? You there? I asked you what flowers we should have." Orchid waves a hand in front of my face, snapping me from my thoughts and back into reality.

   "Huh- oh right. Well orchids of course, and daffodils, marigolds, sunflowers, daisies, red and white roses..." I begin listing off a bunch of different flowers.

   Orchid giggles. "And tulips."

   "OH MY GOD YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" I grab her hands and grin.

   "Let's talk to the boys about it." She says, beginning to get up.

   "No, don't. Their 'busy'." I say doing air quotes.

   "Oh." She says, sitting back down. "Well now I'm bored. How about we get 'busy'." She smirks.

   "I like the sound of that." I say, kissing her.

-Friday-

   Me and Veneer walk into the studio, where, as expected, the seven trolls were waiting. They were way smaller than I imagined.

   The two girls, Viva and Poppy, were braiding each other's hair while the five brothers, John Dory, Bruce, Clay, Floyd, and Branch, were messing around with each other. It reminded me of how Veneer and Vincent were when we all were kids.

   They all look up at us and Floyd waves.

   Veneer just stares at them, grinning widely.

   "Alright, now that you're here, we can discuss the song idea we have." Clay says.

   "Y'all already have a song idea?" I ask.

   "Yup! We called it 'Better Place'." Bruce says. "Here's a copy of the song." He hands me a packet, stumbling due to it being ten times his size.

   I take it from him and look over the song. It looked really good, although I think a few changes should be made...

   "I like it. It looks really good. But I think I know how to make it even better." I say to them. "May I?"

   "Sure." Floyd says. "What are your ideas?"

   "Veneer, do you have a pen?" I ask.

   "Um, no. But there's one." He grabs a pen from on one of the tables and hands it to me.

   I go through the song, tweeking a few lyrics to make it sound better. Making sure not to change too much, and handed it back to them.

   They looked it over and John Dory nodded. "I like these changes. You really did make it sound even better then before."

   "Thank you." I say confidently.

   We set up a date for the next time we all meet. We agree on the twenty-forth of next month.

  

Hi, um so it's been MONTHS since I last updated this, and honestly I've been so focused on all my other fics that I kinda forgot about this one! I'm so sorry for those who were reading.
