The Make Up [Lauren Jauregui/G!P You]

Chapter 9~~ The Start Of Something Big Stage

"Good job everyone! Interview complete." He says and everyone cheers, rushing towards me and wrapping me in a huge group hug. "Thanks everyone!" I say as they pull away from me. We all say goodbye and I hug Cory one more time before leaving the studio room. "Good job Y/N, but the day isn't over just yet. We've got a meeting to go to. So, to the Republic Records building we go!" He says and the bodyguards lead us out the building as I groan, knowing this day isn't even close to being over yet.

Y/N's POV:

Scooter leads me into the room that the meeting will be held, and I sigh. Fuck I'm tired. Anyways, I put on a smile as I walk into the room. "Y/N! Nice to see you again." Monte says as he stands from his seat and rushes to me. I smile big at him and accept the hug, "Nice to see you again as well Mr. Monte." I say and we pull away, him giving me a look. "I told you this Y/L/N. Just call me Monte, it's alright." He says and I nod, giving him a small smile before looking at the others in the room. One stands up and I think I remember him from somewhere but I cant think of where. 

"Nice to finally meet you, Y/N. My name is Jonathan Augustavo. But you can call me Jon Jon. I'm most known for my nickname." He chuckles, holding his hand out. "I'll be your director for the Stitches music video." He says and my eyes widen as I accept his handshake. "Are you serious?" I ask, not believing this is real. "Very much so." He says and I allow a huge smile to cross my face. "I love your work." I exclaim, and he smiles big at me. "Good to hear. I heard what Stitches sounds like, and I believe that you are incredibly talented. Cant wait to hear the rest of the album." He says and I smile appreciatively at him. "Thanks. It means a lot." I say and he smiles, nodding. "It's only the truth." He says and I nod as we all take our seats. "Alright. Lets stat this meeting." Monte says and it all begins.

Throughout the entire meeting, we talked about the ideas we want for the music video with the creative directors that came. They allowed me to choose what I wanted for the main idea of the song because the song is really sentimental to me. I decided I wanted it to be the idea of my ex, who I didn't name but they know I'm talking about Lauren, continuously holding me back from achieving where I want to go because she continues to hurt me. That's when one of the creative directors said we can make it as if something, or someone, invisible was hitting me and punching me, when at the end it was only my subconscious holding me back because of the hold this invisible thing, which would be my ex, has on me. 

"I love it. Cant wait to start." I say and they all smile at me. "Perfect! Alright. We'll hold another meeting soon to discuss when we should start this. For now, the rest of us here will discuss outfits, and how everything will fit into place. Y/N, you've got to finish recording the album, which isn't too far from done. After the recording is done, we'll start recording the music video. Once the music video is done, we'll release it and that's when we'll just be doing a lot of interviews until the album drops. Sound good?" Scooter says, looking up from the notes on his phone and I nod, along with everyone else. "Grand. Now, this meeting is over. Good job everyone." Monte says and we all get up from our chairs, say our goodbyes before I walk back over to Scott. 

"You're doing great Y/N. Taking this schedule like a champ. For the rest of the night, you're off. But be ready, we'll be at your doorstep for the studio at 5 tomorrow morning. Goodnight Y/NN." He says and I nod, happy to finally be able to go home and sleep. "Goodnight Scooter." I say and we hug before I leave the room, Scooter staying behind to discuss some more things for his other clients. Poor guy, probably never gets sleep. I couldn't do it.

She's got a bad reputation

She takes the long way home

And all of my friends seen her naked

Or so the story goes

Mistakes we all make them

But they wont, let it go, no

'Cause she's got a bad reputation

But I know what they, don't, hmm

And I don't care what they

Say about you baby

They don't know what you've been through

And trust me I could be the one to, treat you like a lady

Let me see, what's underneath all I need is you

She's got a bad reputation

Nobody gets too close

A sight of a soul when it's breaking

Making my heart, grow cold

And into the deeper, she's sinking

I'm begging her please, don't let go

'Cause she's got a bad reputation

But she's all that...

All that I want though, hmm yeah

And I don't care what they

Say about you baby

They don't know what you've been through

And trust me I could be the one to, treat you like a lady

Let me see, what's underneath all I need is you

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ooh

Ah, Ah, Ah, Ooh

Nobody knows her the way I, I know her said

Nobody knows the weight that's on her shoulders said

Nobody knows her the way that I, I know her said

She's got it bad, she's got it bad

Nobody knows her the way I, I know her said

Nobody knows the weight that's on her shoulders said

Nobody knows her the way that I, I know her said

She's got it bad, she's got it bad (Hey)

I sing the high note for a minute before adding on little high notes under my voice until it gets to the end.

She's got a bad reputation

She takes the long, way home

I hold the note before smiling as the song ends. Please, please don't make me redo it, I thought to myself since this is the last song I have to sing for the album. "Great job Y/N! You're done! Bad Reputation, along with the album itself, is complete!" Max says and cheers and screams erupt from the entire studio as everyone rushes into the booth. I quickly put my headphones on the mic before getting tackled by the writers, producers, the band players, and Scott himself. "Okay.. guys... I c-cant f-f-fucking.... breathe." I say and they all quickly get off me. "Jesus guys. A little warning before you all fucking jump on me maybe?" I ask with a smile and they all chuckle and/or roll their eyes.

"You did it Y/NN! You finished the album!" Scooter exclaims and I smile wide, getting up from the ground. "Yes I did. But I couldn't do it without you guys." I say and they all smile and awe at me. We all decide to celebrate tonight at one of the clubs, and Scott said I have the rest of the day off for extra celebration. 

I leave the studio saying my goodbyes before walking to the back. An idea pops in my head and I think about it deeply before sighing whispering "Fuck it...". I get in the back of the car and smile up at James. "I heard you finished making the album. Congrats mate!" He announces and I smile and thank him with a hug. "Thanks Jamie. Can you take me to the Fifth Harmony household?" I ask and he gives me a questioning look before nodding and pulling off. Here we go.

A/N: Well this one was kinda bad but next chapter should be a lot better. Thanks for all the support and Until Next Time-- Love, Aaliyah.
