Audrey's POV:
After these few days with August and Usher being in the house and now having my niece living in the house with us, I have come to thinking that I need to get in the studio. Since I really dont need anybody to help with producing I can do this myself. I walked down stairs into my studio and played an instrumental that I had on my labtop for a minute. I chose something that I wrote awhile back. When August and I had broken up. I walked in the booth, placing my head phones around my ears and started singing.
Do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
And I knew better than to look in your eyes
They only pretend you would be mine
And oh, how you made me believe
You had me caught in every web that you weaved
But do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

You could never make eye contact
Everything you got was based off of my contacts
You a fraud but I'mma remain icon-stat
Balenciagas on my boots with a python strap
You was caught up in the rush and you was caught up in the thrill of it
You was with me way before I hit a quarter mil' in it
Put you in the crib and you ain't never pay a bill in it
I was killin' it, now you got me poppin' pills in it
I told Miyagi hit you, I said this nigga buggin'
Cause I was doing it for us, I told 'em fuck the public
Couldn't believe that I was home alone, contemplating
Overdosin', no more coastin', no more toastin' over oceans
They say you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They say that your darkest hour come before your dawn
But there was something that I should've asked all along
I'mma ask on the song

Do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
And I knew better than to look in your eyes
They only pretend you would be mine
And oh, how you made me believe
You had me caught in every web that you weaved
But do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

I just figured if you saw me, if you looked in my eyes
You'd remember our connection and be freed from the lies
I just figured I was something that you couldn't replace
But there was just a blank stare and I couldn't relate
I just couldn't understand and I couldn't defend
What we had, what we shared, and I couldn't pretend
When the tears roll down, it's like you ain't even notice 'em
If you had a heart, I was hoping that you would show it some
What the fuck you really telling me? What you telling me?
I could tell you lying, get the fuck out, don't yell at me
I ain't mean to cut you, I ain't wanna catch a felony
This ain't How To Be A Player, you ain't Bill Bellamy
They say you don't know what you got 'til it's gone
They say that your darkest hour come before your dawn
But there was something that I should've asked, all along
I'mma ask on the song

So, does she know I've been in that bed before?
A thousand count, and not a single thread of truth
If I was just another girl
Then I'm ashamed to say that I'm not over you
There's one thing I need to know
So, call me when you're not so busy just thinking of yourself

Do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies
And I knew better than to look in your eyes
They only pretend you would be mine
And oh, how you made me believe
You had me caught in every web that you weaved
But do you ever think of me when you lie?
Lie down in your bed, your bed of lies

After recording the entire song I told Morgan to come over. Soon as she came I played the song for her. And honestly she felt it more than I did. She cried before the song ended. And she's been managing me for years so she's like family and I want to know why. I cut the song off before really asking her what happened.
Me: Morg what happened?
Morgan: remember how I told that there was problems going on with me and Colin?
Me: yeah, you never really went into details but whats going on?
Morgan: he's been cheating on me. But our issues dated back 3 years ago, when I had the busted lip. I went through his shit and thats when I got hit with suitcase. Then recently I uh left my house the bat and busted the windows out his car. And mind you the crib I got for his thats where all that took place.
Me: listen my love you don't need him. I mean yeah he lives out on the West Coast in California because he plays for the 49ers, and he's really hot, but you don't need him. He's wack. And you just need time for yourself before getting back on the daiting scene.
Morgan: how'd you get over the fact of August cheating?
Me: honestly it took time. Just surrounding myself by good company. Now it's not going to be quick like a month. Knowing you it'll be like 6 months. Now I'm getting married in 7 you think you'll be happy by then.
She laughed at my comment before nodding her head as a reply.
Me: now are you gonna stay here or go home. Cuz if you stay here I'll call the girls and we'll have a slumber party.
Morgan: I'll stay here for the weekend. But let me run home and get a change of clothes. And Omarion needs you to send over your part to supposed to be. And Chris need to see you in the studio ASAP.
I nodded as she got up. And left before sending out a group chat to Shaquay, Shantell, Karrueche, Cassie, Trina, and Jada.
Mrs.Alsina💋💄❤️: We Got A Code RED. At my house tonight.
I got back to working on this music thing for a lil bit before starting a new song just writing the song up. Its about my sister not being here and me watching after daughter. While I was writing my phone started to ring, and it was August.
Me: hi my love.
August: hey babe what you doing?
Me: in the studio writing a new song about Briana & Melody.
August: when can I hear it?
Me: when you get back in a few days. But what are you doing?
August: Im chilling, missing y'all like crazy. Just spoke to Tyler & Melody.
Me: babe their in school. I'm thinking you want their phones to get taken away in school.
August: don't blame me about talking to my kids while their in school.
Me: oh i just finished a song today I'll send you the audio and the girls and I are having a sleepover for Morgan.
August: whats wrong with Morgan?
Me: Colin cheated on her back and forth from Cali and New York. And she's hurting pretty badly. So we're just gonna cheer her up.
August: why you never told me that your brother is a radio personality?
Me: how'd you found out?
August: well on the show he hosts after the Breakfast Club he was addressing something that Adrienne Bailon had said about us and he completely blacked on her and he even said he's not apologizing.
I laughed.
Me: Thats my brother but everybody doesn't expect an apology from him cause he's an asshole, unless he knows you on a personal level.
August: but babe tell Morgan I said get over it.
Me: will do.
August: love you baby.
Me: love you too.
