"Watch me as I let loose, watch me as I prove you and everyone else wrong."

- Watch Me (Written by Shea Avery June 20, 2016)



"They should be in any moment, Ms. Avery." A member of the production team tells me as I sit in the makeup chair in my dressing room. That is correct, I have my own dressing room. It is pretty small but the white walls draped with red silk makes the room seem larger than it actaully was. There was a gold couch and a table on the opposite side of the room. I currently sat in front of the large vanity, one you would see in Hollywood movies... well we are in Hollywood.


"Thank you." I smile and she exits the room leaving me with the women who was pinning my hair back to make it look shorter. 


The outfit I wore was unlike anything you would ever see me where. I would never be caught dead in what I wore at the moment. A long black dress clung to my body, almost restricting my breathing patterns. On top of the death trap was a heavy leopard print coat, one you see all the divas wear in movies... once again, we are in Hollywood.

"There is our favorite song writer!" Luke yells walking into the room, he reaches over the chair to give me a loose 'Luke' hug. "How have you been doing, love?" He asks and leans against the chair, starring at both of our reflections in the mirror.

"Rocking & rolling. How about you, Spiller?" I ask and he lets out a exaggerated sigh.

"Well we have all been missing you, and the single isn't as high on the charts as we hoped."

"Are you trying to blame this one me, the one who is trying to help boost it?" I raise an eyebrow and Spiller smiles then turns around to face the director. He was young, dark black hair and a 5o'clock shadow was showing on his face.

"We love you, babe." Adam chimes in and I roll my eyes. Rock bands, am I right?

"So Ms.Ave-" The director begins but is cut off by Jed.

"Call her Shea, she hates Ms.Avery." The director smiles apologetically than continues.

"Welcome to the set, first off. Now the premise for this video is you are a typical full of yourself young star. We will be filming a few scenes here on set then we will be moving to a few locations through out LA."

"You guys said I would fit perfectly in this role, I don't see how I fit in this puzzle." I speak up and cross my arms. The sleeves on the jacket are so large, it is hard for me to fully cross my arms.

"I see the vibe, you fit perfectly." Spiller chuckles with an english accent. No idea how a laugh can have an english accent, but his does.

"Mhm, okay." I roll my eyes.


We all pile into the cart and soon we arrive at a large studio. As we enter the sound proof area, we are separated from the rest of the world. The only thing going on in all of our lives was the music video we were creating right now, all personal feelings were left outside on the lot. 

Maybe Spiller is right, I need to let loose.

As we are guided through a jungle of wires we finally step foot on a large white background. I look around and notice a band set, set up a few feet over from where we stood. 

"You guys got the singing, right?" I joke and Gethin looks at me funny.

"Why on earth would you be the one singing?" He laughs along with Adam. Spiller and Jed are no where to be seen, it is hard to see anything past the lights due to their maximum blinding brightness to illuminate the set.
