I woke up in the morning to Keaton holding a Starbucks coffee in my face.

"Salted Caramel Mocha Blended with No Whip" he smiled

"Thanks how'd you know??"

"Took a guess"

"Lucky guess"

"Now let's record"

"Okay babe what ever you say"

We walked out of my room and into the studio. Wow it was nice having one in your house.

"Do you need warm ups??"

"Nah I'm good"

"Okay are you good with me being here or do you want me to let you be?"

"You can stay if you want it doesn't bother me"

"Alright what song?"

"You wanna start with Parking Brakes it's easiest for me to do"

"Sure so we will record the music and then the voice."

"Okay that sounds good."

I played the guitar and Keaton played the drums. This was gonna be cool. Next we started the voice.

Both-

Dash light dripping on your sun tan skin
Radio playing that song again
Just pull me in, mmm pull me in

Keats-
Cut off shorts and a vinyl seat
Slide on over here next to me
Let me pull you in, mmmm, let me pull you in girl

Both-
Ooh, if you didn't know by now I'm crazy about you
And I know the perfect place to stop

Mallie-
The smell of honey suckle on a river bank
Fireflies, sweet tea, and the summer rain
Pouring all the way, all the way down

Keats-
Cherry red lips calling out my name

Mallie-
Two-tone Ford and that parking brake
Pushed all the way, all the way down

Hmmm....all the way down

Keats-
Middle of the middle in nowhere now
Go ahead girl, let your hair down

Mallie-
Just close your eyes, it's going to be a damn good night
Cut off the engine, toss the keys
Ain't nobody here, but you and me
And a little moon light
Out here in the country side

Keats-
Ooh, I gotta feeling that you're crazy about me, too
Girl and don't you ever stop

Both-
The smell of honey suckle on a river bank
Fireflies, sweet tea, and the summer rain
Pouring all the way, all the way down

Keats-
Cherry red lips calling out my name

Both-
Two-tone Ford and that parking brake
Pushed all the way, all the way down

Ooh yeah.

Ooh, if you already know by now I'm crazy about you
Oh, tell me what you wanna do. (Ha woo)

The smell of honey suckle on a river bank
Fireflies, sweet tea, and the summer rain
Pouring all the way, all the way down

Keats-
Cherry red lips calling out my name

Both-
Two-tone Ford and that parking brake
Pushed all the way, all the way down

Keats-
Those cherry lips call my name

Both-
Yeah [3x]
All the way, all the way, all the way down, yeah
Ooh yeah, baby
All the way down

We hit the last note in perfect harmony. Wow we sounded good.

"You wanna hear it together?"
He broke my train of thought

"Sure."

He played it and it was actually really good thank god for his editing skills.

"You are a really good editor"

"Babe I haven't even done anything yet and I don't think I'm gonna...wanna another one?"

"Yassssssss"

"Alright fireball which one now?"

"Walls of I??"

"Is that one solo?"

"Yep and I usually play and sing at the same time with that one if that's okay"

"That's perfect!"

"Well here goes nothing."

-------

"....walls of IIIIIIIIII" I hit the last note and looked up to see a shocked Kenton

"Was I bad?"

"Bad no not at all but you are a natural singer."

"What's that mean?"

"I don't need to run any edits. it's just you and your voice that's how the guys and I sing too"

"Oh cool...Can we do another??"

"Yeah you wanna do Jealous with the boys real quick?"

"PLEASE!!!!!"

"Yo Wes Drew asses to the studio now!"

Sure enough within seconds they were there

"Time for our song" Wes asked excitedly

"Yep. Grab your instruments and let's go."

Keats had the box beat, Wes was on electric guitar, Drew on drums, and Me on acoustic guitar.

"I still get Jealous" Wesley finished

"Perfect and no edits for anyone so we are clear!" Keat clicked around on the screen

"Wait bro Mallorie sings natural to that's sweet" Wes seemed shock wow this must be a big deal or something

"Yeah and she has 3 of the 4 songs done already"

"Damn girl" Wes said walking out.

I finished off I Never Heard Goodbye and smiled. Done I can't believe it!!!

"Baby girl this is really good what do you say about taking this to Simon?"

"Are you for real that would be amazing!"

"Then let's go"

"Let me change real quick"

"Why do you have to change?"

"Babe look down I'm in my pajamas"

"Finnne go be girly and change"

What to wear what to wear hmm mmmmmm how about this yes! I decided on a grey pocket tank with some light wash ripped skinny jeans and my white converse with a layered necklace. I left my hair in it's natural curls and applied some quick foundation and eye liner with a little bit of lip gloss perfect! I ran down stairs to see Keaton waiting. He took my hand and we walked out the door and got into his car.
