This Is Us But You Still Playing

Chapter 13: Half-a-Step Forward

A/N Lmao I just wanted to comment about how almost everyone said one or two months of being cut off 😂 and y'all remember how Y/N's balls that she grew before she kissed Dinah in book 1 (it's in the prologue of the book for those who didn't read it) Well, I think I wrote that because of the balls I grew in HS when I just openly flirted with my art teacher 💀💀 damn

Also at the end are my feelings about Lauren's article 😍 AND FYI your girl is psychic 😂 she hasn't said it but I'm going to take her bisexuality to also mean she's with Lucy and when they get engaged at Dinah and I's wedding I'll remember this story and shout it out so we will all know where we started from 😂😂😂 Lmfao... ENJOY!!❤❤

Four months later and I finally had my album tracklist done. All I had to do now was show let Paris, Jermaine, and a few others hear it and approve. We had been in the room for over an hour and the tracklist was finally coming to an end.

When the last song ended the few people in the room applauded making me smile softly at them.

"Thank you."

"The album is great Y/N. The progress of it from hype to calm. It's amazing."

Paris said making me sort of shocked that she could even muster up such a compliment. Everyone else agreed with her, giving compliments to different parts of the album that they felt stuck out to them. After a couple more minutes of discussing the album, Paris spoke again.

"Okay. Well, we obviously love it. Give me a week and I'll have the release dates everywhere. We'll work on the tour dates after that."

"Alright. Thanks."

She nodded as I stood up and collected my stuff.

"Oh, and I'll send your new assistant and Destiny your schedule until the album release in a few days. And please don't go crazy tonight if you celebrate. I would like to keep you in the happy sights of people right now."

I laughed at her but nodded.

"Yeah, yeah. I'll try."

After leaving Paris' office, I headed to the Fifth Harmony house. Even though they are broken up, they still live together just so even if they get super busy and are always gone they can still see each other once they get home.

After the argument Dinah and I had in the studio, we hadn't seen each other or talked to each other since. When I came over to the house, she was usually gone because she would be recording or promoting her music. And if she did happen to be at the house she would stay in her room. But today was one of the days that she was at the studio, as well as Lauren. So, the other three girls and I ordered pizza and wings as we lounged around the living room enjoying each others company with the TV playing in the background.

"Well it's official guys."

I said after the food arrived and we were all settled back on the couches.

"My album is done. The release dates and everything are coming within the week."

"That's awesome, Y/N/N. And I have some news, too."

Ally said. Saying the last part a little more hesitantly.

"Spill shorty."

Camila mumbled with a mouth full of pizza.
