"I'm thinking more of a basic concept," I state, biting the rubber off of the wooden pencil.
"You mean neither a cute girl nor a badass concept?" Sadie asks. "Exactly," I point the pencil at her.
"Let's come up with something that sticks with you for a long time. You know how when you listen to a song you catch yourself singing it like all the time?" I ask and the 4 girls nod. "That's how our song should be," I say.
"Alright, that sounds like something we can do," Bella says and scribbles something in her notepad.
"Okay but first we need to figure out who raps and who sings," Esther says as keeps clicking her pen, despite having us tell her to cut it off.
"Sadie and Bella have really good vocals. Right?" I ask looking at them. "Yeah." They say in unison. "I can do both, so anything is fine. But I'm a little more comfortable rapping, I think." I say.
"Yeah, same. I can do a little of both." Amara nods. "Esther?" I look at her.
"For the last time, it's Esme." She grits her teeth. "I honestly don't care. Vocals or rap?" I ask.
"Vocal." She says, her eyes throwing daggers.
"Cool!" Bella claps her hand. "So we have Sadie, Esme,s and I who can sing and Ava, and Amara who can rap." She states. "That's right," Amara replies.
"Okay so now that's out of the way, what's our concept? Basic, yes. But what is it going to be?" I ask.
We brainstorm for about fifteen minutes but none of them seemed to please everybody. I grab my hair is frustration and sigh heavily. We've barely started and this is sucking the life out of me already.
"I have an idea, hear me out," Sadie says and we all turn our attention to her. "The song can be about how a girl is confident in the way she looks and she knows that she can get any boy she wants. So it's like when I walk into the room all eyes are on me." She explains. "You feel me?"
"Yeah," I say. "I like that."
"Yeah sounds good." Amara agrees too. "We can do that," Sadie nods. "Yep, that's okay with me too," Esme says.
"Let's work on the lyrics then!" Sadie beams. She seems way too excited.
________________
It's been an hour and a half and we're finally done with the whole song. I'm pretty satisfied with how the song plays out and I assure you, it's catchy as hell. The tune keeps playing in my head on a loop so I can confidently say that we did an appreciable job.
It's 7:14 pm now and we decided to sing our parts to see if the song actually sounds as good as we thought we did and bingo! It sounded great! As much as I was jealous of Esme, she has a unique voice and gave the song a different sort of feel.
We also concluded that we won't use autotune but we thought we'd finalize that after we listened to the song on autotune.
Right now, all that was left for us to do was to come up with the choreography, and the five of us as a team decided that Amara and I were responsible for dance because apparently they had seen our audition tapes and our performance stood out.
After some more time of planning, we called it a night. However, Amara and I decided to stay back and practice some moves. We said bye to the other girls and started coming up with dance moves. But when after an hour or so, we starting getting restless and started to mess around.
"Bust a sexy move," I challenge Amara and play music from the speaker. Thinking about it now, I probably shouldn't have.

"Oh my god," My eyes widen as she continues being sexy and slides on the floor. "Oh my god!" I say a little louder.
She continues her dance and I looked at her like she had me in a trance. She doesn't hesitate at all and moves to the music like she'd practiced the dance before. She was extremely elegant and flexible. It was clear that she put her heart and soul in the performance.
It was sensual, to describe it in one word. I hype her as she dances and the routine finally comes to an end.
"That was fire!" I beam and hysterically clap my hands. Her cheeks turn into a shade of pink and she put her head down.
We continue dancing, and before I know it, it's already 9 pm. "Hey, are you sure you can go back home alone?" I ask her as I glance at the clock. She nods and gulps water. "I live like 20 minutes from here, I'll be fine."
"I can ask one of the guys to come with you if you want," I suggest. "Oh no, I wouldn't want to trouble them." She wipes the sweat on her neck. "Text me when you get home." She nods.
I turn off the AC, lights, the computer, and grab my water bottle. I lock the room and walk down the stairs with Amara. We say our goodbyes and I give the key to the security and make my way to my room.
"Hey," I greet Mia and Zoe who are playing a game. You see, we were meant to have separate rooms/dorms but we'd all just hang out in one of ours. They nod their heads at me and go back playing.
After Mia cried her heart out yesterday, she seemed completely fine, like it didn't mean anything to her. That's the thing about Mia. Once she's done hurting, she never looks back. One of the many things I should learn from her.
Anyway, my whole body hurts and I plop on the couch. Take a shower first, you say? Nope. Too tired. Gross, I know.
"Did you guys come up with concepts?" Zoe asks. "Mhm," I reply. "We just have the choreography left. The song's impressive," I proudly say. "What about you guys?" I ask, looking at them.
"Same. We haven't figured out who's responsible for choreography yet. I'm guessing you and Amara are in charge of your team?" I nod. "How's Naomi been acting?"
"She's actually not that bad. She's trying to be a part of the team and she's listening to all of us. We haven't had any problems with her so far." Mia replies. "Right," I shortly reply.
"Alright, I'll see you guys tomorrow," Mia says as she throws a pink hoodie over her black camisole. "See ya!" Zoe waves. "Where are you going?" I ask as she reaches the door. "To hang out with Jimin and Hobi." She shrugs.
"What are you guys going to do until morning?" I ask in awe. "Jimin and I planned on a movie and then Hobi, Jimin, and I are just going to fool around, eat and chill for a bit."
