Sara's POV:

I had an interview today with the vamps lads and their manager Joe about the collaboration me and Samantha were doing, I didn't want to do this collaboration but I didn't have a choice if I wanted any sort of music career. I headed off down to the studio building early in the morning and got into the elevator to the top floor where the conference rooms where, I headed down the corridor to room 5A and knocked on the door and opened it. Joe and The boys minus Connor were sat looking through papers. "Sara your here" Brad smiled as I walked through the door, "yeah" I smiled, "take a seat, we're just waiting on Connor and Samantha" Joe smiled gesturing to the seat. I sat across from them, on the far side of the conference table. There was a silence of voices just the sound of Joe, Tristan and James looking through the papers whilst Brad tapped his fingers on the table, "so... How've you been?" Brad asked me, "good, you" I said awkwardly, "yeah, I've been fine" he nodded, "if you're gonna lie to the girl at least do it with a smile, no Sara he hasn't been fine at all if it helps your mind Charlotte found someone else and he's been down about it" Tristan said to Brad then me, "Tristan!" Brad scolded him quietly, "so I was right" I smirked smugly, ""I told you that" Brad rolled his eyes, "say it again so I have witnesses" I smirked, he sighed, "you were right" he said painfully, I smiled widely. Soon Samantha and Connor walked in, both looking a little disheveled, "Connor you're late" Joe sighed, "sorry Joe" Connor apologised, Samantha sat down beside me with her back to me. "So now we're all here we can start discussing this collaboration" Joe smiled at the table. I sighed loudly, "hey I don't want to do this any more than you do" Samantha grumbled quietly to me, "highly unlikely" I scowled at her, "so we're going to have you two perform Sara's song express together, Sara you'll take the first verse and chorus and then we'll slot Samantha in for the second verse and ladies we know there's bad blood between you two so don't make this a compition to who has the biggest vocal range" Joe warned us, "yeah because she'll loose" I chuckled folding my arms, "hey! I happen to have a substantial vocal range and I bet it could overpower yours" Samantha stood up defensively, "keep telling yourself that honey" I flicked my hair sassily, "you know you think you're so great! But actually-"

 I sighed loudly, "hey I don't want to do this any more than you do" Samantha grumbled quietly to me, "highly unlikely" I scowled at her, "so we're going to have you two perform Sara's song express together, Sara you'll take the first verse and ch...

"Sit down Samantha" Joe scolded, I saw out of the corner of my eye, Samantha glaring at me as she sat back in her seat, "so, like I said, we'll have no competing for the who has the biggest voice award, you'll sing the song, tell the audience about the singles that you'll have released to promote them and your social media accounts and then you'll come off stage. It's not a difficult ask, you're both artists now neither one of you is any better or worse than the other" Joe spoke calmly, "so you're saying our vocal abilities are, the same" I said offended, "essentially-" "no, there is no way on this earth you're saying she is anywhere near as strong a vocalist as me, I'd crush her" I stood up in rage, "Don't talk about her like that" Connor defended his girlfriend, "Connor" Joe scolded, he sat down. "Sara you are in the same situation as Samantha. I can't go treating you differently because of what you think" Joe said also standing up, "you could ask anyone! I can hit stronger notes why do you think Express was such a hit, and that's not even the highest my range would go to" I defended myself, "I agree your song was great but you need to prove to the public you can sing that live or all of that is for nothing" Joe told me simply, "oh I'll show them alright" I said before storming out of the room and heading down the corridor.

Brad's POV:

Joe sighed as he sat back down, "I'll talk to her" I said standing up, "damn she's a diva" Joe chuckled weakly, "yeah but she's worth it" I shrugged with a smile as I head out of the room after Sara.

"Sara" I called after her, "what do you want?" Sara grumbled turning around, "I came to calm you down" I chuckled nervously, "yeah and how you gonna do that? You gonna tell me they're kicking Samantha off this?" she questioned, "I wish I was but no" I shook my head, "then what? You think you can make things all better and go away just because you were nice to me. Well guess what you were also a pain in the ass to me and in my world that triumphs over niceties" Sara snapped, "worked for Nate" I shrugged, she fell quiet, "yeah well that was different, he made things up to me, he proved to me that-" "well let me prove myself then. You haven't even given me a chance and I know Joe really likes you as an artist, if he didn't he would've taken you off this the moment you started sassing everyone. You know you've got a better voice than Samantha and so does he but he can't really go ahead and say that in front of her face now can he?" I told her bluntly, she was quiet, "well I guess not" she shrugged, "it would be unprofessional" I said brushing my hand up her arm to comfort her, she sighed and rolled her eyes, "I guess you're right" she said bitterly, "wow was it that difficult to confess you were wrong" I laughed, "I wasn't wrong, just misunderstood" she shrugged smirking a little, "is that a smile?" I teased her, "maybe" she said trying to hold back her smile, "hug this out and go back in there?" I asked her holding out my arms, "fine" she rolled her eyes and smiled as she fell into my arms, her fragrance filled my nose, I missed having her to talk to, she was someone I could hang out with and not feel uncomfortable.

We walked back into the room and Joe smiled at us, "Joe, I want to apologise for my behaviour it was wrong of me to storm out like that" Sara admitted to him, "believe me it's fine I've dealt with Diva's before, you fit the character well except I know you're nicer than that. Brad speaks highly of you" Joe chuckled, I facepalmed as Sara smiled at me.

When the interview ended I went and spoke to Sara, "I'll walk you down so there's no brawling" I chuckled smiling at her, we got in the elevator, "so that went well, you're coming on tour, I look forward to it" I smiled widely, "jeez Brad you're more excited than I am" she chuckled, "I love touring" I nodded, "well it'll be fun" I nodded.

When we reached the ground floor we walked across the floor to the front of the building where I saw Nate was waiting for her, "oh, Nate's here. Well, this was fun, I look forward to tour and thanks for walking me down" she smiled at me, "no problem" I nodded feeling a small punch in the chest when I saw Nate stood there, "bye" I called after her, she turned and waved to me before wrapping her arms around Nate and kissing him. Lucky guy.
