Trinity rapped over the mic, spitting fast and Harley smiled largely. She remembered their conversation from the other day and clearly, Trinity didn't come to play today. Trinity was smoothly riding on the Caribbean styled beat and a minute later, Merlyn hopped on with a passionate verse. It was animated but he made sure the flow fit with the beat's style. Harley's favorite part was how well Trinity and Merlyn blended together.
"So what are we calling this song?" Kevin asked after Matt and Harley had each rapped their verses. Harley wrote an entire verse about confidence and she rapped it proudly. "I feel like we all worked so well together on this song." "How does that answer my question about the song name?" Kevin laughed and then Matt said, "Because it could be representative of that." "It's too badass for a sweet name like that." "Then what about the opposite of harmony and friendship?" "Hatred and arguments." Romil said and everyone said, "No." "What about something like Nemesis?" "Wait, that's perfect, Joba." "Thanks." He smiled at Kevin. "Nemesis it is then?" Harley leaned back in her chair with a surprised grin. "I like it." Kenny nodded and slowly everyone else agreed.
Yesterday they had filmed the music video for Harmony which was filled with a bunch of candid clips of them hanging out. Ashlan had filmed them in the pool or while they were working. Harley especially liked a particular clip of Joba and her laughing together.
"Okay let's finish this up!" Kevin got up and Joba began to mix the song they'd just created.
*Joba's POV at the BH house*
Fortydust had just left and now everyone in Brockhampton was sitting in the living room, hanging out. "Y'all wanna watch something?" Kevin asked and they all shrugged. "Whatever's good with you." Ciarán mumbled. As Kevin looked through Netflix, Matt said, "So what does everyone think of Fortydust?" "We've been working with them for a while now." Merlyn laughed and Matt shrugged. "I just wanna know what everyone thinks at the moment."
They were all quiet for a second, contemplating this before Melyn answered, "They're all actually really cool. I could have really great conversations with Millie and Genesis and I have gotten a lot closer." "She's still scary but I've seen a different side of her." Jon said. "Trinity and I text a lot. And whenever she comes over she's down to play video games or basketball with me," Dom added, "Plus she's super genuine and kind." A bunch of the guys awed and Joba smiled. "That's really sweet of you to say, Dom." "It's true." Dom shrugged.
Everyone suddenly looked over to Kevin where he sat there with a tense jaw. "What about you?" Matt leaned in with a smirk. "I uh," Kevin coughed, "I hate to say this but I maybe, sorta, kinda like...Harley. Maybe." They were all quiet for a second before every single guy began to cheer. "Finally!" Matt cheered and Joba nodded appreciatively. If Kevin was good with Harley...who knew how mad he'd be about what was going on between them. But that was just hypothetical...
"Kenny's super charismatic." Romil crossed his arms behind his head. "She's seriously talented too." Ciarán nodded appraisingly. "It honestly sounds like everyone's a fan of them." Matt's smile was wider than before. "What's it matter?" "Cause none of us expected that. At all." "Especially not me." Kevin looked down at his shoes. "Especially not you." Joba agreed and then Matt turned to him.
"It looks like you and Harley get along." "Oh yeah. She's great." "Mhm." Ciarán nodded with a small smile. "You guys are always hanging out." Dom nodded. "We're definitely turning into...good friends." "And she definitely likes you." Romil was fluttering his eyelashes. "We have a lot more in common than we thought." "And the same goes for every single one of us with every one of them." Matt nodded with an eager smile. "It's honestly crazy how well we get along." Merlyn said and every guy agreed. "And we're almost done with the ep already." "I can't believe it." Kikos tone was almost wistful.
To Joba's satisfaction, both bands had decided to take a break from working this Saturday and Sunday because of how much they'd gotten done.Thankfully now him and Harley would be able to see each other and so he was good with this two day break. Reaching for his phone as the rest of the guys continued to talk, Joba texted Harley. "Thinking about you."
