Corissa's POV

"Serena, kick your boyfriends out. We need to record." I huffed in annoyance from the couch in our home studio.

Serena laughed a little and told the guys to come out, making me smile a little to myself as I got off the couch.

"That beat is sick Serena, Nate was right about how talented you are." Sammy gushed, and Nate smiled warmly at Serena.

"Thanks. Cori, go get in the booth. I finished the beat for that song." Serena directed me, making me nod and grab my phone.

I stepped into the booth and listened to the beat, a grin coming to my lips as I put the headphones on.

I started singing and closed my eyes, remembering what I wrote.

(song up above)
Feel it race, going numb
Got me beating like a drum
What I say when I spill
Maybe I should never talk

Na na na na na, ay
Na na na na na, ay
Stories end, people change
But I'm ripping like a page
I don't dream, I'm afraid
Seeing nightmares in the day
Na na na na na, ay
Na na na na na, ay

I opened my eyes to see Serena, a small smile on her face. This song was more personal, and it was nerve racking to have the two boys listening.

Say goodnight
I'm still lying awake by your side
And even though I know I shouldn't
I'm feeding the monsters I'm afraid to fight

I closed my eyes again and started singing the chorus, my voice raising as the beat got harder.

Leave every bottle as empty as my promises
Just like the last time, I swore I'd get sober for this
Told you I fought 'em, they tempt me
I'm begging to live
Hands on your shoulder, I told ya I'd get sober for this

I opened my eyes to find Sammy watching me intently, his mouth dropped a little in surprise.

Wanna drink, wanna smoke Wanna feel it in my throat Then I sink, then I choke and I realize that I don't

Na na na na na, ay
Na na na na na, ay
Unafraid, feel it rise
Baby you can bet I'm high
Then the pain, let it ride
I been aching the whole time
Na na na na na, ay
Na na na na na, ay

I looked away as Serena cut the beat, and I walked out, grabbing my water and taking a quick sip as the two boys stared at me.

"What?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at Sammy.

"Did you write that?" Nate asked, cutting Sammy off.

"Yeah, I write all my stuff." I admitted, and Sammy's face softened.

"You're really talented." Sammy said in a tone of admiration.

"Thanks." I said, grabbing my phone and plopping down on the couch, Alexius running downstairs with a look of anger on her beautiful face.

"I hate that chinky looking kid Derek!" She yelled, only for her soon to be rant to be cut off by Nate's phone.

"Oh look, it's the chinky lookin' kid Derek." Nate announced happily.
