Romance is boring

Chapter 1: A solid start

Let's see, let's see.... Hmmm how should I choose to start this new song? I feel like I've been working no stop on my first ever album and haven't gotten a break since. Ha I've never been so bored and unmotivated to write until now. Maybe this is why people make an album then take 6 months off. You see I just released my FIRST ever album this year and it was such a long ass process. I've been so stressed, spending 15 hours in the studio, another 3 at home to take a break and then the rest is sleep. God remind me next time I want to release an album to get more sleep. I really can't go on with just 6 hours of sleep every day for 5 months just to write and record 10 songs. I should have really listened to my best friend Mark. He told me this would happen but Guess who never listen to him....... ME!!! Look most of the time mark just says some RANDOM ASS SHIT and don't even try to do anything. Well I guess that was until 5 months ago. He really was starting to give good advice but who cares? Anyways right now I really should be home taking a break from all of this but I just... well I don't know. Guess I just gotten into a routine I can't get out of. I thought I felt like writing a song today but it's just not feeling right to do that. After all I just released the album about 3 weeks ago. Maybe I should go out to get some coffee instead, it would probably help me get my mind off of writing and working on music. Maybe I can even call Mark to come and join me. If I do call him, I'll probably call him once I get to the car since the room I'm in is very echoey and I feel like if I were to call him, it would just be echoing the whole entire time. Now to think of it, why did I pick a room that is very echoey and large. Maybe I should get some acoustic foam or some kind of soundproof foam just to make it slightly better for me after all, this is going to be my new recording studio. Why did I say new? Well that's because I literally just got it about a month ago it took me such a long time to move my stuff out of my house into the studio. Originally didn't think that it would take me a solid two months to do but here we are and I'm still moving a few things like some speakers and simple things like that into the studio. I got up from my foldable chair and decided I shouldn't just leave it out. I decided that I would fold it and leave it against the wall Since I'm going to be getting a couch in here tomorrow morning for me and my friends to hang out on as we work on our new songs. Look, I said I was a solo act, but but that's because I don't really have a specific guitarist, drummer, bass player all the above. I've tried to look for some people I've even went out to some coffee shops and everything but I just can't find anyone perfect for the positions and spots that I'm looking for. Everyone that I do find they're asking me to pay them an insane amount of money I don't have at the moment. But in just a few months, I know for sure that I will have plenty of money that I can spend so I can get these positions filled and have an actual team. I have a good feeling that my album will do well. I haven't really seen any changes but then again it's been three weeks normally for everyone it takes about a month so maybe just one more week and I will see a grave change or maybe any minute, any hour, any second, any millisecond. God I really hope it does well for me. If I stay here any longer I'll just continue to over think. That's when I decided that I should actually start heading out and probably call Mark. Mark always helps me get out of my head so he's probably the right person in need to talk to. I walked over to the light switch, and as soon as I flipped it, the room went dark. I opened up the door, closed it, took my key and locked it up, so no one could break it and steal my stuff. After all, I did spend such a long time moving it all in and I don't wanna redo it. As I was heading out, I got a call from Mark. Honestly, I was a bit surprised. Anyways, I didn't think too much about it and answer the call.

"Y/n" A smooth voice said from the other side of the phone

" Hey Mark, what's up?" I said in a very nice tone

" I was wondering if you wanted to go get coffee after you are done with your shift. Well not really a shift but once you're done with the studio for today." He said

" Honestly I was just about to call you since I just finished for today." I said trying to hide my bit of tiredness from trying to work but getting absolutely nothing.

" Sweet sounds like a plan. Do you wanna head to the coffee shop by your house or do you wanna head to the fancy one that always tends to make you smile, especially after a stressful day of writing" Mark asked

" I honestly think that we should head to the one by my house. It's a pretty cozy café and I feel like that's what I need right now."

" You sure Y/n I am the one paying" Mark said in a teasing tone

" Hmmmm on second thought I changed my mind. Let's go to the fancy café!!!" I said with excitement

Mark chuckled

" All right I'll meet you at our normal spot. Do you want me to get you anything? I am pretty close to the café just so you don't have to wait in a big line once you get here and your drink and food will be ready for you once you get here."

" Thanks for the offer Mark but I think I'll actually try something new today so I'll just wait till I get there." I said

" Well if you're going to try something new, I might as well too so I'll just wait till you get here" Make said with a smile Y/n could see in her head. One that she knows really well.

" You know you don't have to mark you can just order anything. I really don't want you to wait for me because it's going to take about 15 minutes especially if you're already so close, just order something I don't mind at all." I said kindly

" Well too bad for you because I'm going to wait. Especially you said that you'd try a new drink so I wanted to try one with you. Maybe you can even pick what I'm going to be drinking."

" Mark you always seem to do this" I said remembering all of the 2,000 times Mark has done this.

" Well you can't stop me!!!" Mark screamed in to the phone.

Just as I was about to say something he hung up. I laughed and got into my car. I put the key in and started to drive to me and Marks "fancy" café.
