Recap
Kirstin and Mitch are finally together! They are so happy and feel like everything is beginning to go right for them. Chanel feels horrible about what she has done and has made a plan for the new girl, Lilly, to win Mitch back. Finally, after saying the sentence "that conversation was timeless, it is classic," she is starting to think it's time to put some of the words to use in her A cappella assignment in music class....

Kirstin's POV
I turn to Avi completely frustrated as I try to figure out the lyrics.

"Why is this so hard?" I whisper complain. Avi shrugged.

"I'm not having any trouble," I turn to his paper to see the whole song already written out.

"Light in the Hallway. Sounds like a creepy song name," Avi rolls his eyes and chuckles lightly.

"Trust me, it's completely the opposite," he then pointed at me sternly, "get back to work now," I sighed and turned back to my paper. I looked at the paragraph I had down. I thought it could make a good chorus, I just really wasn't sure.

We could be timeless, we could be classic.
We could be stars, we could be

That was all I could think of. Now that I think about it, it isn't really a paragraph. I don't even have a complete sentence at the end. That last word just won't come. I turn back to Avi who is now, for some reason, figuring out the bass line first.

"Avi what do you think I should end this with?" I asked pointing to the blank space. Avi mumbled the lyrics before pausing at the blank space.

"It should be something that's beautiful. Something that'll make people go 'aah yes' you know?" I nodded.

"But you can't give me any ideas?" I practically pleaded. Avi shook his head.

"That's for you to figure out Kit," I sighed and put my head in my hands, "you'll get it soon Kirst. I believe in you!" I smiled lightly. Yup, go me.. I continued to mumble the last sentence.

Beautiful things? Flowers are pretty. Butterflies are pretty. We could be butterflies sounds awfully childish though. I need something that fits the mood!!!!

My brain was practically fried and we were only 20 minutes into class.

Let's see, I have stars as my last motive. What about gold? We could be gold. It's missing a word! What about.... ROSE GOLD! That's it!

I immediately scribbled the word onto my piece of paper.

We could be timeless. We could be classic.
We could be stars. We could be rose gold.

I smiled, now it's time to come up with verses, as I am now naming this song, Rose Gold. For the next hour I had left of class, I worked on the bridge and the verses. I've never written a song so quickly in my life and it felt good to let it all out. This song will be for Mitch. I smile and began working with the background parts. I already know how the melody goes.

"Woah that was quick," Avi said as he glanced at my paper. I chuckled.

"It was only because you helped me. I would've been in the same spot had you not helped me," he nodded.

"Aviously," before he scooted back to his desk.

"Alright class is over," Mr Osbourne said as he stood up, "see you tomorrow when we begin to work on our parts. I grabbed all of my papers and exited the room with my class. As I was walking, a girl with long black hair approaches me.

"Are you ready for our double date tomorrow?" She squeals before noticing my confused and terrified look. "Oh Mitch didn't tell you?" She asked. I shook my head and raised my eyebrows.
