Lily's pov:

(Oh yeah, and I changed lily's last name to Sykes before you kill me for doing the name change coming up)

You never know how big a recording studio is until you are lost in it and racking your brains trying to remember where the room you are supposed to be in is. The worst part about the game of find your way around a recording studio is when everything looks the same. After darting through corridors for what seemed like forever, I gave in to my legs that were giving out from the exercise I backed into the wall of room 666 and made a dramatic bitch out of myself as nobody  was around, and slid down the wall falling into an awkward position as they do in crappy romance movies. I guess somebody was using the room as I heard the door click open and some footsteps coming my way.
"Are you planning to stay there or can I interest you in a seat inside the studio?"
A man questioned.
"Go fuck yourself Remington!"
I groan and rise my head to see a green haired man with a patterned sweater and multiple rings.
"Sorry, I thought you were someone else"
I stutter to him
"Oh, it's fine, I get mistook for Remington by girls pouting outside our recording room all the time"
He sarcasms to me
"I'm Awsten Knight by the way, before you call me Remington again"
"Lily Sykes" I mumble back
"Well, Lily Sykes may I interest you in coming in to our studio" he says holding out a hand in a majestic way.
"I may as well I'm too lazy to find where I'm supposed to be" I say taking Awsten's hand. As I rise from the ground still with Awsten's hand in mine, walking into the studio room, I hear a certain Emerson Barrett running to me and Awsten.
"Lily!" He says to me. "What happened"
"Well; you caught me off guard, and put me in a position where I didn't feel comfortable, so I left the studio, found Awsten and now we're here"
"Wait, are you two a thing..." Awsten questioned with fear in his voice.
"Nope, he's just desperate to get a woman" I snap in Emerson's direction.
"Sorry for looking for you while Andy has a nervous breakdown!" He screams
My anger fades as I remember Andy, how I remember how scared he used to be when I would go somewhere for prolonged periods of time and when I went "home" he would be freaking out in a bath of whiskey and tears. Sometimes in the incoherent 'I could have lost her's I would hear stuff like 'it should be me' and a lot of talking about someone called Ashley. I would assure him that I would stay on Earth for as long As I possibly could. A cloud of guilt rained over me as I relived all of the bad memories.
"You can tell him I'm alive and that if he's to kill anyone, it's you, I wish I'd never met you, you reek of desperation and its making me sick, taking advantage of a woman in a time of weakness! I knew from the moment I laid eyes on you I'd repose you until the day I die. I hate you emerson barrett!"
