She's The One(Ariana/You)

New, But Old, Music

Y/n's POV:

We were in the middle of having lunch and I was scrolling through my Insta when I came across a video I wish I'd never seen, from a couple years ago, of me rapping one of the first songs I ever wrote.

I thought I deleted this video from Samia's phone.

I guess Ariana noticed my expression as she asks," baby what's wrong?"

I turn and look at her and say," Samia posted a video of me rapping one of the first songs I've ever written."

Scooter shrugs, "okay, what's wrong with that?"

I look over at him," the problem with that is the video is not only embarrassing, but when I wrote it we were just messing around. I would never release that song or post that video seriously." Shaking my head, I say," Samia loves that song. She thinks I should release it."

Just as I say that everyone's phones pings with notifications. They all check their phones and they start laughing. That's when I knew they're looking at the video.

Once they stop laughing, Adam says," I mean you make the song and video sound so cringe-worthy but it's actually kind of good. Samia's right Y/n you should release this."

When everyone agrees with him, I sigh.

Beside me, Ariana's hand smacks the table excitedly," what if you let your fans decide"

I frown thinking about what she's suggesting. Then I nod," okay let's see what they sayin."

When I scroll over to my twitter, I get a feeling I know what they're saying when I notice the large notification number in the red bubble. Clicking into the app, I see that the video is number two trending and number one trending is #releasestealyourman.

Scooter smirks and turns to me, saying," welp we better get the check now, you got a song to record."

I facepalm and groan into my hands and mumble," fuckin Samia man."

They all laugh and we pay the bill. In little to no time we're walking back into the studio, everyone finding their previous spots.

Cass looks over at me and asks," so when you wrote this did you have a specific beat in mind?"

"Um we had an idea, just not sure how it'll work. Let me just get in the booth and start singing and we can play it by ear."

He nods," ok great go head."

I get in the booth and put my headphones on and wait for the red light.

As I'm singing the song I find myself subconsciously smiling. I can't help but remember when we wrote these lyrics and how incredibly childish I thought it was. But it was fun and I had mad fun messing around with Samia.

For the next thirty minutes, we try to work on the beat, playing around with different autotunes and instrument sounds. Then I get an idea. I turn to Scoot and tell him that.

"What're you thinking?" He asks.

"Ok for the chorus instead of what I just recorded I'm thinking we use the audio from the video so it keeps the authenticity of it and my voice sounds younger. Plus Samia's voice is in it as well. Then for certain verses I feel like it would sound better from a maybe softer singin female, just not sure who."

I look at everyone in the room as they think of people who could be in it.

Then Scooter snaps his fingers and smiles," Oh shit! I got the perfect person for the first rap verse. And before you ask it's a surprise."
