Jealous (Nick Jonas)

Chapter 3: Why not?

❤️иι¢к'ѕ ρ.σ.ν.❤️
"So tell me, what are your hobbies Paige?" I asked.
"Um I play tennis, act a bit, play the guitar, piano, drums, and sing a little." She said with a light smile.
"No way really?" I asked totally shocked.
Paige nodded her head.
"Is it really that hard to believe?" she asked furrowing her eyebrows.
"No. No. What kind of music do you sing?" I questioned.
"Mostly romantic pop, you know like Taylor Swift?" she responded.
"Do you write your own stuff?" I asked yet another question.
"Well yeah, I'm not signed into a record label or anything. It's not serious. I just do it for fun. It's a hobby." Paige said with a light smile.
"What do you do better, sing or act?" I pressed.
Just as Daniel came back in.
Paige chuckled, "I.. I don't know. I like both. I put the same effort into both." she said with a shrug.
"Okay Nick. Let's go inside of the studio." Daniel said with a sigh, "come on sweetheart."

We sat at the desk and discussed new music.
"This, this is a new thing for you Nick. You need to give your career 110%. It's the first time you go solo, no brothers to back you up, or for you to back up. If you're not focused people are going to be asking 'Who the hell is Nick Jonas?' In a couple of months." Daniel spat.
I nodded my head. It was harsh but I like the way he spoke with truths it motivated me.

Daniel then took out a sheet of paper which contained a blank chart.
"How many songs do you want on your album?" He asked clicking a pen to began to write.
I thought for a second, "14."
"How many duets?"
"3." I responded.
"Only 3 out of 14? You're going to sing 11 solo?" Daniel asked totally shocked.
"Giving it my 110% sir." I said with a slight smile.
He smiled and wrote those numbers down. I slightly turned to look over at Paige, and saw her spinning in a chair listening to music with her headphones. I turned my attention back to Daniel.
"Where would you like to perform? Gimme at least 5
different places, and we'll keep adding once we begin talking more about the tour."
"California
New York
Texas
New Jersey
Florida
done." I said.
Daniel wrote everything down and smiled.
"Okay let's get to work on your music. What do you have so far?" He asked.
I noticed Paige took a headphone out as soon as she heard the work music.
I smiled to myself.
"Well I began this new song last night." I said getting up and walking to the mic, with my journal.

I began to sing what I had down so far.
"I keep trying to escape
From this cage that I live in
This prison in my head
Oh I own many mistakes
From all the things I never did
I carry my defense
Now I'm running for the fences on my own

And I can see the warning
Yeah I can see the warning, warning
It's brighter than the morning, morning
Keeps trying to turn me right around
And it's all I ever wanted
It's all I ever wanted, wanted
I'm breaking the warning down, down."

"That was excellent." Daniel said with a big smile from the other side of the glass.
Paige got up and opened the door to the recording section.
Rule #1 was:
No one can go inside unless permitted and the light was green. no one.
"Paige Rae! We're working come back out!" Daniel said through the glass.
I smiled. "What's up?"
She grabbed my journal and the pencil that was attached.
She quickly scribbled some words and said "try this."
I looked down at the journal and sang what she had written down.
"I, I got something inside
Keeps burning my body til it's sore
Keeps wanting more and more
Oh and I, I'm gonna find
I'm gonna find what I have lost
Unlearn what I was taught
Now I'm running for the fences on my own
-continue chorus :)- is what she had written.
Daniel seemed a little shocked what I-- well what we had finished.
"Rae, how'd you come up with that in about 5-10 minutes." Daniel asked impressed.
"Don't call me Rae. But it was simple. The words just popped right into my head when I heard the first verse." Paige said with a smile.
Daniel smiled big.. Again.
"I did not know you had the talent of song writing Paige."
"Yeah, well you don't know a lot of things about me." Paige said with a sigh.
Daniel began to pack his things and said that time was up and we would meet on Monday.
"Wait! Paige come back into the studio. I want to see something." I partly begged.
Paige rolled her eyes, and came back in "What?"
"Sit your ass in that foldable chair and sing any song." I demanded.
"What? Why?" Both Paige and Daniel asked at the same time.
"Why not?" I spat.
