"Okay, that's it. You're officially superwoman, or something along those lines. How on earth have you managed to write, compose and finalise three songs within a week?"
I give Sam an exhausted look. "I would say it's probably due to the mounting pressure and anxiety of feeling like a failure. But we can go with I'm feeling very inspired at the minute."
Now it's Sam who gives me a worried look. "Do you want me to ask what's going on?"
I shake my head. "No. Whatever those songs are about," I start, referring to the two songs that centred around negative feelings, "I don't feel like that anymore. No need to worry about it now, I just thought it would make a good song."
"Good?! They're beautiful. I'm assuming you've named them all?"
I nod my head. This was my favourite part of songwriting...sometimes I had the title in my head before I started writing, sometimes it came to me during the process, and sometimes it came right at the end, cherrypicking what I wanted the title to convey.
"First one is called Circles," I say, referring to a soft, slow song that depicted the feeling of my relationship going round in circles, dealing with the same issues over and over again without any real resolution. It captured the feeling of exhaustion and frustration, whilst also showcasing that there was still so much love there.
It was about the drama over Christmas, and it was a very personal song to me, and it was incredibly easy to write, with the feelings flooding straight out of me.
"Second one is called I Miss You, I'm Sorry," I explain, which was centred around the time after Harry and I had ended things — regardless of how limited that time had been.
It had been insightful during that time, because it had made me realise how much I didn't want to lose him, regretting the choices that had led me to that point.
"And the freaky one?" He asks, raising an eyebrow, because once again I had somehow delved into my sex life once again.
I laugh, and clear my throat. "Bed Chem. And it's not even that freaky!"
