Landing In London {Dreams & Bleachers Sequel}

False Sense of Security

Jade's POV

"You wanna take that again?" Jet, our record producer, asked Harley through the booth microphone.

"Yeah, let's go from the second chorus." She replied.

We were in the studio, recording for our fourth album. After senior year, NJ and Ryder asked Harley and I to join their band, The Hatchet Gamble. We all went to college together, majoring in the art of music, and I managed to get a minor in business. So, along with being the bassist, I'm also the manager.

Maddie, aka Jet, is James' fiancée. She also owns the record label we belong to. Right now, Harley is recording a cover of F.S.O.S. by The Exies. We like to throw a few covers at the end of our albums.

Hearing her badass voice never gets old! "False sense of security-Giving me a real sense of insecurity, messing with my head now, head down! What the fuck is wrong with me? A false sense of security! Is fucking with my head!" Harley backed up from the mic, taking a breath.

"That was great, let's take a break and go grab lunch!" Jet grinned.

"Good," Harley replied as she walked out of the booth. "Because I'm hunger as fuck, and it's hot as Hell in there."

"So I hear." She laughed.

We walked out to the den, where Ryder and NJ were working on a new rift for a song. They glanced up at us, right as Ryder's stomach growled.

"I see we're not the only ones hungry." I spoke, pulling out my phone to check the time. "The steak place down the street isn't too busy this time of day."

"Oh, God, steak sounds really good right now!" Ryder husked out.

Harley grabbing her jacket, replying, "Well, what are we waiting for?"

The others stood up, but Ryder stopped as he caught eye of something on the table. "Oh, uh, I forgot to tell you guys, this came in the mail."

I snatched the paper from his hand, almost dying when I saw what it said. "Our ten year high school reunion is coming up." I unhappily announced, earning groans from everyone.

Okay, I'll be the first to admit, we didn't really keep in contact with the others that much. We see James every once and a while, because of Jet. Of course, I see Seamus, and Harley sees Eddie, but otherwise, you can forget about it.

I wonder if everyone grew apart. All the couples are still together. Like I said, James and Jet got engaged recent. Harley and I were married by Justice of the Peace right out of college, and last I heard, Eddie and Genesis are talking about marriage, but nothing serious. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure everyone is still in the boyfriend/girlfriend phase.

"I don't want to face them." I whined. "They're going to ask so many questions!"

"Like, why haven't you stayed in touch?" NJ added.

"Yeah, I think that's the one he's most worried about." Ryder chuckled. "Can we go now? I'm HUUUNGRY."

I shook my head and followed them out. Looking down at the paper, I realized it was being held in Colorado. We haven't been back in... years. Of course, our tours pass through there, but otherwise, we call California our home now!

Great, I can just imagine his horrible this is going to go...
