quad recording studio - new york, ny----
The bitch in Stormi was about ready to come out. She'd been the studio for exactly five hours straight recording with the girl-group, SWV and they hadn't even got to the chorus yet. In the time period of being on the road, Stormi worked up inspiration for a song called Weak. The lead singer of the group, Coko didn't like the song and make sure that was known amongst Stormi and her band mates.
Stormi was a mil second from saying fuck it and giving her song to somebody who would want it and sing it, she wasn't expecting to spend half of her good day recording a simple three minute song. Plus she'd already had plans today, since it was DeVante's birthday and she wanted to be done before him and the boys get back from their interview with Jet Magazine.
"Listen, I can go and this session can be done with. Alright?" Stormi spat, from the microphone. She was beyond pissed off at the moment.
"Storm, don't pay no attention to her. Let's do this." Taj gave a smile, holding up her two thumbs. Stormi laid back in the chair and rolled her eyes. "This is bullshit." She mumbled, hitting-the playback button.
"I don't know what it is that you've done to me. But it's caused me to act in such a crazy way. Whatever it is that you do when you do what you're doing. It's a feeling I want to stay, cause my heart starts beating triple time, with thoughts of loving you on my mind. I can't figure out just what to do, when the cause and cure is you."
The all got on the same harmony path and started singing the chorus. "I get so weak in the knees, I can hardly speak. I lose all control and something takes over me, In a daze and it's so amazing, it's not a phase. I want you to stay with me, by my side. I swallow my pride, your love is so sweet, It knocks me right off of my feet. Can't explain why your loving makes me weak."
Stormi couldn't help, but widening the smile on her face. They were doing there thing finally. They all continued to sing through the songs with smiles on their faces except Coko. She still had a mean glare on her face, and the Bronx in Stormi didn't need to come out, not today, not today.
"Time after time after time I've tried to fight it, but your love is strong it keeps on holding on. Resistance is down when you're around starts fading. In my condition I don't want to be alone."
"Cause my heart starts beating triple time, with thoughts of loving you on my mind.
I can't figure out just what to do. When the cause and cure is you, oh."The chorus started up again along with a added adlibs against the three girls. After a few minutes, the song was over and Stormi was doing backflips in her mind. The song definitely was gonna do good on the charts, the girls were talented with a wild range induced between the three of them.

"Y'know the cold way I use to be and the cold way I use to act, but more than that. I think of how you changed me, with yo' love and sensitivity. Remember when I use to..." DeVante sung along to Fire & Desire by Rick James and Teena Marie. He got down on one knee and belted out a note, not noticing that Stormi had walk inside of the hotel room.
She stood at the door, with her coat in her hands. Watching DeVante, stand up from the floor and start singing the next verse in-sync with Rick.
"That's what I use to do." He swung his hand around, swatting the air while gliding across the floor. "Use and abuse things. Then I laid eyes on you-"
Stormi interrupted singing where he left off. "It's was pain before pleasure, y'all."
She threw her jacket on the floor and strutted over to DeVante, who was kinda in shock that she caught him in the act but continued to play along. "That was my claim to fame, with every measure, oh baby. Tasted teardrop stains, yeah." She sung, holding onto his face as he kissed her cheek. She walked off, waiting for DeVante to sing the next line.
"Then I kissed you lips and you-"
"Turned on, you turned on my fire." The two continued to harmonize together and singing along to the track. Belting out all the right notes, while hugging each other. The track still played as the two, caught their breath.
"Stormi, you really love me don't you?"
"I'll always love you baby. Happy Birthday."
"C'mon. Let's go to the back." He smirked, pulling her off towards the bedroom. Let's just stay, DeVante definitely enjoyed his birthday gifts.
