Falling// Jack Avery

64

Eventually you found a perfect outfit. It was a red tight leather skirt and a cropped band tee. You also bought a pair of black heels to wear with it. You went to the check out and bought everything you had. You and Allie were tired of shopping, so you went back to your apartment.

☆skip to getting ready☆

You and Allie were both in your bathroom getting ready because you wanted to talk to each other. You and Allie got all dolled up and dressed and then decided to take some cute pics together. You took a lot of selfies and mirror pics. Once you finished your mini photoshoot, you and Allie went outside to find your Uber. Once you were in, you set off to the club to meet up with the girls. You arrived and walked in and the familiar smell hit your face. It felt like forever since the last time you and Allie were with them. You walked over to the girls and gave them all hugs and then sat down.

"Soooo how have you guys been?" Olivia asked
"It's been really good. I feel like everything in my life is going smooth and just working out perfectly" you said and smiled
"Yeah same here. Me and Sam are still going strong and I'm just living my best life" Allie said

The rest of the girls talked about how they have been and what they've been doing. There was a lot of catching up to do because Allie hadn't been there in so long. Eventually, they moved on to a different topic and started discussing songs to sing together.

"So Maddie what's tonight's choice?" Sarah asked and you paused to think for a moment
"Um well, I actually haven't thought about what to sing yet" you said
"Oooo I have a suggestion" Evie said
"Give me all of them because I have no idea what to sing" you said and laughed

The girls gave you several suggestions and you took note of all of them. After lots of pondering, you decided to sing watch by Billie Eilish because it was upbeat and just a fun song. The girls went ahead and sang their song and a few people went after them. You waited for the other people to finish their songs. Then it was your turn. You walked up to the stage and did the normal stuff you always had to do, and then the music started. You sang your heart out like you usually do. Of course the girls were cheering you on and so we're some other people. Allie was recording so you could post it on your channel later and some other people were recording because they liked your voice. After you finished, people cheered and clapped for you and then you went back and sat down at your table. You and the girls were talking but you were soon interrupted by an unfamiliar man in dress clothes coming up to your table. You all gave him confused looks and he then began to speak.

"Sorry to interrupt ladies, but you all have amazing voices and I was wondering if any of you would be interested in maybe recording songs in my studio? There would be no costs or anything. We're just looking for new talents and I think you would be great" The unnamed man said
"I'm sorry what's your name?" Evie asked
"Oh right, sorry, I'm Luke Smith (𝚒 100% 𝚖𝚊𝚍𝚎 𝚞𝚙 𝚝𝚑𝚊𝚝 𝚗𝚊𝚖𝚎 𝚜𝚘𝚘𝚘 𝚓𝚞𝚜𝚝 𝚐𝚘 𝚠𝚒𝚝𝚑 𝚒𝚝) and my friend and me own a recording studio and we're looking to help some people boost their music career by letting them use our studio" the man said
"Wait so you're saying we can use your studio for free and if we become famous or something then you don't get anything? Sounds like it's too good to be true" Olivia said
"Yeah I'm not sure about that, I have my own set up at my house" you added
"Well, I'll go ahead and give you girls my card and you can think about it and if you ever have any questions or want to try it out, you can just give me a call" Luke said and handed you all a card
"Do you mind if I get your names?" Luke asked and y'all all told him your names
"Yeah Maddie actually has a pretty good following on YouTube and a pretty nice setup so I don't think this will do much for her, but me and the girls could possibly use it" Mya said
"Oh okay you can just give me a call and we can plan a time" Luke said and the girls nodded in agreement
"So Maddie do you write songs?" Luke asked
"No I just do covers. I'm not very good when it comes to writing" you said
"Well, we have people that can write songs and they'll give them to you" Luke said
"Oh I don't know, but I'll think about it" you said
"Okay, well thanks for letting me talk to y'all and I hope y'all give me a call" Luke said and walked away

You and the girls talked about whether or not it would be a good idea to call him or not. He seemed legit but then again what if he's just a fake? The girls didn't have many fans so loved the idea of growing bigger but they needed to speak to their manager about it. You on the other hand didn't have a manager and all you did was sing on YouTube. You realized if you wanted to grow bigger and do better, you needed a manager. The rest of the night, you and the girls danced and hung out together and had the time of your lives. You were still thinking about the offer, but you didn't let it take over your night. At about 1:00am, you and Allie got an Uber and went back to your apartment. As soon as you and Allie got in, you took a shower, changed clothes, and went to bed. Your thoughts weren't letting you go to sleep. You couldn't stop thinking about Luke Smith and what he said. You started thinking about photography and whether or not you still wanted to do it. You enjoyed photography but it didn't give you the same feeling that singing or performing did. But then again, if you did start performing and making music, you would eventually have thousands of fans that would want you to tour so they could meet you. If you toured, you and Jack would barely even be around each other and it would most likely drive you two apart and you knew you couldn't do that. It wasn't an option.
