Crash ~Justin Bieber~

Chapter 29 ~ Workless

(Randy's POV)

The Mash Up had taught me to hate Mondays for a whole new reason. Not only was the weekend over, but also the first studio meetings rolled around, and no matter who you were partnered with those meetings were awkward and tense.

"My only friend - is Ryan! And i use the word 'friend' very lightly"

Justin poured a glass of coffee, "Yeah well buddy I've got my bestie Blaine in my group"

Again Harry stared at Justin distraught, his mouth wide open, blinking back puppy dog eyes.

"And by Blaine I of coarse mean you Harry - my bestest friend!"

Harry smiled happy with the correction.

"Harry where did you get those?" I asked, looking at the shakers he was holding.

"I made them! I filled them with rice and everything!" he shook the shakers in his hands.

"Great... what are you planning to use them for?"

"Our performance this week - I want to incorporate Morocco into every line of the song"

Justin smirked and swallowed back a sip of coffee, "It's going to be a long day..."

That it was.

When I arrived at my own studio I was met with dead silence. Tanner and Oliver glared at me from one side of the table, while Ryan sat awkwardly besides me on the other.

"Hi..." he said.

"Err - hey - so - what's our emotion?"

"Who stuffing cares?" Tanner spat.

"Is that the emotion?" I asked Ryan, thinking it could be anger or hate.

"No..." Ryan handed me the envelope and I pulled out the card.

Things kept getting worse and worse.

Group 4 your emotion is - Glee

"Let me get one thing straight," Tanner started, "Me and Oliver will not be singing or writing anything this week"

"Yeah - we are taking the week off. No way are we devoting our time to a traitor like you Green"

And they meant it.

Our first studio meeting was completely wasted. Tanner and Oliver would not work with us and there was nothing I could do about it. They didn't care about their charities, and they didn't care about their reputations.

"If they are taking a week off... what do we do?" Ryan asked.

"Nothing... I guess we take a week off too"

After four hours of sitting in a studio doing nothing, I arrived at lunch to find another bizarre scenario. Harry was sobbing, wearing a necklace made out of garlic around his neck, holding a broken rice shaker in one hand. Justin was consoling him quietly while Ben and Rob attempted to fix the other broken shaker with tape.

"Hey" I stared, "What's up?"

"Taylor made Harry cry..." Justin explained, "Multiple times actually..."

"She threatened me!" Harry proclaimed, "And she broke my homemade Moroccan shakers!"

I looked at Justin, "So she's being the 'Group Director' again?"

"Uhuh..." he patted Harry's shoulder, "And she didn't take a liking to Harry's 'Moroccan theme' idea like I did..."

"Luckily I have this!" Harry jabbed at his garlic necklace, "Hopefully It will protect us both Justin!"
