Sweet Dreams (Marilyn Manson Love Fanfic)

Chapter 7

Flashback: Marilyn's POV

I walk into the studio from using the restroom. I sigh and sit back down with Madonna, Twiggy, Zim, and Ginger.

"So how many more songs to go?" Zim asks. We just finished recording the EP Lunchbox.

"I believe we are done. " I say and go through what we just recorded.

"Finally!" Twiggy says,I smile at him. I'm glad that Twiggy still acts normal after the whole "breakup" between us. It was a small affair. We don't discuss about it, no one knows about it and we try to keep it that way. It was time to move on, it was a mutual breakup so that was good.

"Hey I have some disagreements about this whole new sound we are trying to aim for. " Ginger says. "I think the lyrics you came up with for this EP isn't really sounding that well. " he says.

"We are finished, done deal. No changes, we worked hard for this EP. Also for a matter of fact, you didn't help that much, I had to help you create your own drum beats. " it's true, I had to do most of the goddamn work for him.

"Well because you didn't like what I came up with, Marilyn!" He shouts, that just pisses me off more. "You want to do it your way. We have to get an approval of what we come up with and can put in any of the songs-"

"Because your work is fuckin' shit Ginger!" I yell at him. Twiggy , Zim, and Madonna scoot back. "And I only do that so we won't make a shitty ass album!"

"So now your calling our creations shit, " he stands up and points down at me. I stand up and swing my fist across his face. Twiggy rushes to me and pulls my arm. I push him off.

"Stop it, fuckin' shit!" I scream out.

"Calm the fuck down, Marilyn!" Madonna says and pulls Ginger away. Zim pulls my arms back. I push him off.

"You're all lucky I don't kick you out!" I shout at them.

"I'm tired of you treating us like shit! You only don't treat Jeordie like that because you went out with the faggot!" Ginger snaps at me. I turn right back around and I just keep throwing punches at his face.

"Stop Marilyn, let it go!" Twiggy shouts out. I push Ginger and leave. I slam the door and walk over to a small waiting room. I sit down on the couch and rub my eyes. They are all fucking lucky I don't kick them out, or at least Ginger. He took it way too far when he pulled Twiggy in this. How did he even know? I hear the door open and I see Twiggy come in looking scared. He sits next to me. We don't say anything for a few moments.

"You know we can't afford kicking out Ginger. We'll be touring really soon. " Twiggy says.

"I can't work with him right now. " I simply say.

He carefully chooses the right words to say. "I- I think we should just, perhaps take a break from him. Not officially kick him out but, you know. "

"Maybe, I'll think about it. " I say and don't make eye contact at all. I can't stand seeing his sad face. He hates arguments, his parents would always argue and I suppose it just stressed him out as a kid. I see from the corner of my eye that he smoothes out his dress.

"Well, I'll give you some room to decide. " he says and leaves me. I lean back on the couch and run through my thoughts. Twiggy is right in a way. Ginger is awesome as the drummer, I can admit it. I am bossy but that's what happens when you're an only child. I am the leader of this band basically. Maybe Ginger and I need a break for a while. We have been arguing a lot lately but it hasn't gone this far. Usually we hit each, just one or two punches thrown but not as bad as today. Yes, Twiggy is right, we need a break from each other. I walk out of the room and go to the studio.

"I need to speak with you Ginger, alone. " I say. Ginger steps out. "I have thought about it, and I think it's best for all of us if we just take a break. " he nods. "Not to be officially kicked out of the band but no, just a break. " I rub the back of my neck. "You're an excellent drummer Ginger." He holds out his hand and I give him a firm handshake.

"See you soon Brian. " he says and walks away. I don't want drama to interfere with the band, this is business, not a high school conflict. I go back inside and we all continue as if nothing happened. Zim clears his throat.

"Is Ginger coming back?" He asks.

"Not now, but soon. " I say. My phone begins to ring and I see that it's our agent.

"Hello?"

"Hi Manson, I have a surprise for you. " I can tell that he is grinning by the sound of excitement of his voice.

"Yes?"

"I hired you all a makeup artist. "

Sorry it's short. This is just to fill in some holes in the story. Next chapter should be finished by tomorrow.
