A Dream Come True

Chapter 6 ~ Why Now?

The next morning I got up and met up with joe, "ive got so much to tell you" I say with excitement. "I actually need to tell you something as well..." he says nervously, "but you can go first." "Well, so about a week ago, I got an email from jason pierce" he quicly replies saying "JASON PIERCE?!" "Ye..."  "thats amazing!! Why did he email you?" "Well ... he was offering me a record deal" , "want me to help you pick up your jaw from the floor" I laugh, he laughs, and suddenly he hugs me "im so proud of you" then he pulls me into a kiss

"Now what was it you wanted to tell me?" I say with concern, "emm, nothing, ye I will tell you another time, its not that important" he says in hesitation, "oh okay" I smile
We leave the park and I go home.
I start writing some more songs

Dear diary,

Ive got some more lyrics

"Walking alone, walking with my head down, you never call my phone, now im here watching you drown, oh I hope someday, youll come back to meeeeee, because I cant even stand on my own two feet, I see you over there, I was stupid enough to think you would care, this isnt fair, why did I think youd care"
Dont really have a name yet but its coming together.
Next week I was going to be meeting up with jason again, I was so excited and I was really happy I was finally getting signed, but I was scared that the rest of the world wouldnt like my music, hopefully they will tho, I was also worried about the paparazzi and all the rumours that would probably be spread, I dont even mind being a celeb. The main thing I care about is, making music and publishing my songs.

I woke up the next morning and headed to work, I was busy looking at a really pretty dress, but it was too expensive

It was in a picture that was in the place I worked, I admired it, when I heard the bell of my shop ring, as I turn around I see joe, he comes up to me and asks "do you want to hang out?" I was going on my break now so I said "lets go"
We went to a coffee shop and talked for hours, "so have you heard anything about your record deal?" He asks, "im going for a meeting next week", "thats great" he says with a smile, "would you like to see some of my work?" "Sure"
As he reads it, I sit wondering if he will like it, "these are amazing" he says, "thank you" I reply, "your really talented" he says, "your too kind" I smile, he smiles back, and he says "you wanna get out of here and maybe go for a walk? "I would love to" I reply,
We go for a walk and I start gazing up at the sky

Its so pretty at night, "what are you looking at" he asks, "just admiring the sky" I say, "when I was a kid I always wanted to go up to space" he says, "why dont you?" I ask, "I never really thought of it to be honest" he says, I turn and look at him, "Some dreams come true, and your dream might, if you try", he smiles "you have a way with words Emily" , I chuckle, "so theres actually something I need to talk to you about", he says nervously, I get kinda worried and ask "sure, what is it?", "well, 2 days ago, I quit my job at topman/topshop, because I wanna be a writer" , "wow, youve never mentioned this" I say, "well ye but the thing is, to do my job, I have to go abroad" "where to?"  I ask, "Australia" "Wh-what? Why?", I feel tears run down my cheeks, I dont even know what to say.
