Beat Of Life

Chapter 21

Once Beca finished the two demos after reviewing them endlessly she joined Stacie in bed and drifted off. They woke up the next morning around 9am and decided to head down for breakfast. Once they both grabbed there food and found a table.

"So care to tell me about those songs?" Stacie asked.

"Not much to say, when you hear it you'll be able to understand the message." Beca shrugged.

"Come on Becs, tell me something." Stacie whined.

Rolling her eyes "Fine I started these after the Chloe incident. Seeing her helped me come up with these two songs." Beca said.

Stacie nodded "Well if there anything like your previous stuff, then there going to be hits."

Once finished with there breakfast they headed back to there room to change. Beca throwing on a white Braves jersey, blue ripped jeans and a pair of timberlands. Once Stacie saw this she couldn't help but stare at the fact that Beca was walking around with the jersey unbuttoned, showing that she was only wearing a bra underneath and it was on full display.

"You good Stace?" Beca smirked while grabbing a white beanie and her silver aviators.

Quickly nodding her head "Yup, it's juts you really look like a New Yorker right now. The denim with the timbs." Stacie chuckled "It actually really suits you."

"It's a comfortable outfit." Beca said "And plus I really like baseball jerseys."

The two headed out after Beca got a text from Halsey that she was in the lobby. Once they caught up with her they headed towards the car and were off to the studio. They got everything set up to record with Halsey pulling up the songs from her laptop and Beca pulling up the beats from hers.

"Alright so after we get through these twelve, we'll be down to four. I actually have an idea for two of them." Halsey said.

Beca nodded "I actually have two songs I worked that I thought would work for the album." Beca said slowly.

"For real? You gotta show me." Halsey said excitedly.

"Sure thing." Be a pulled up the two songs "The first one is called Eyes Closed." She proceeded to play the first track.

Halsey and Stacie were both listening intently and as soon as the song started bobbing along to the guitar riff. Then the beat dropped and the chorus started and the two girls smiled at the sound. They were able to quickly pick up on the message of the song. When it finished Beca looked at Halsey.

"So?" Beca asked playing with the hem of the jersey.

Halsey smiled "I fucking love it. The meaning, melody and beat. Everything is dope." Halsey patted Beca on the arm.

Beca looked over at Stacie "Stace?"

"Incredible B, just like everything you ever do." Stacie smiled. Beca always took her opinions the most serious. It was an odd thing she had where she always wanted Stacie to like her work.

"Thanks guys. Now the second one is called Strangers. I wrote it with the idea of a feature, which is why I asked you that yesterday ghost." Beca said as she played the second one.

Just like the first song, the beat caught the attention of Halsey and Stacie. Then the words came and once more the message was clear. Stacie now knew what Beca meant by how the Chloe situation inspired these two songs. When the song finished Halsey gave out a little chuckle.

"Why did I not know you can sing like that scrappy?" Halsey said raising her eyebrows.

Beca gave a quick shrug "I don't really sing anymore. Haven't since college actually. But I've been thinking about getting back into it." She answered.
