Chloe's  P.O.V
Today was our first day working with the girls and I was dreading every second of it. 

"Don't look now but someone's checking you out" Preston chuckled. I rolled my eyes. "That girl's really got nothing else better to do," I said, glaring at Jade. She just smiled innocently. She really wasn't innocent though, quite the pest if I'm honest. "Here ya go, beautiful" Jade whispered, handing me a song she wrote. "It's for you. It's called, 'Bittersweet'."

"I wanna strangle you so badly," I said, glaring at her. "I bet you do" Jade replied, winking seductively. I rolled my eyes. "Go ahead then, choke me" she insisted. "I prefer the term 'strangle'," I murmured. "Why? Because it sounds less sexy" she asked smugly. "Can you leave?"
"Sure, if you insist"

Later that day, Jade and I were writing down ideas for new songs. At least, I was. I don't know what the heck she was doing.

I turned to Jade and saw her sucking on a lollipop. I sighed and just continued writing ideas for our new album. After a while, I got kind of irritated of hearing Jade suck on the lollipop quite loudly. I tried covering my ears and tried to keep my composure but I just had to ask. "Do you have to suck on that...thing so loudly?" I asked, annoyed. She stopped and smiled. "Why? Does it irritate you, Chloe?" She asked. "Yes, yes it does. Could you please stop that?" I said. It was a statement, not a question. And her smile widened as soon as I said that. "Well, would you like me to suck on something else?" She asked. Lord, help me.

"No! Could you please get back to work" I grumbled. She nodded playfully and we started brainstorming.

Chloe's P.O.V
Me and Jade somehow got into a little argument about being good role models and it made me realize just how much more there was to her personality. Not like I cared but...Y'know.

"Chloe, what makes you think you guys are good role models?"

"We are good role models because of the music we make. It isn't about bringing boys home 'cause that crap is nowhere near inspiring!"

"True, but not all our songs focus on boys. We have songs like 'Power', 'Wings', 'Salute', 'Secret Love Song' one of my personal favorites..."

"Oh Jade...don't forget Secret Love Song pt. II!" Perrie whispered.

"See Chloe, we have songs which do inspire lots of people and we promote huge girl power energy, so I don't really see what you're on about"

Before I could respond, Jade chimed in again. "What about you Chloe? Do tell me, what makes you guys inspiring?"

"That's easy, most of our songs focus on body positivity, never giving up, and love, but the cleaner version compared to yours"

"Well that is something, I will admit. It's quite impressive that most of your songs are built around that message. That's great."

"Jade, would you stop encouraging them!" Leigh Anne grumbled.

Jade just raised her hand at Leigh Anne to signal her to 'hold up'.

"Y' know, an inspiring young singer like you, could really do a lot for your fans. But...I do feel bad for you though."

"Why?" My voice cracked.

"Must be harsh being Simon Cowell's little lap dog huh?" She teased.

I knew it was just a joke but I couldn't control the rage I felt against that little comment. I moved to lunge at her but was held back by Preston.

"Okaaaay, come on Chloe. Why don't we go somewhere else" Preston offered nervously. I hesitantly complied but not before glaring at Jade. "This is not over" I said, trying not to sound offended by her teasing. Damn right this wasn't over!
