She Way Out // M.H. //

Matty POV

I felt the familar burn in my throat as i inhaled the smoke, my lips curled around the end as i held the smoke in my lungs for a moment. I didn't want to be here, and the fact that we had to wait around made me even more angry.

"Fu.cking hell are we going to have wait all day?" George groaned from the floor he was sitting on. I smiled as i blew out the puff of smoke i had built up.

"Speak of the devil." Ross mumbled as Mr. Reed finally stepped out of his office. His fat chubby hands clapped together as he spoke,

"Hello gentlemen! Sorry to keep you waiting but i hope today's meeting can make up for it." His fish looking lips said, he stepped aside allowing us some room to step into his office. I flicked my cigarette into the ash tray as i pushed myself off the wall. The four of us shuffled into the office that was becoming familar to me. However the blonde stringy head was not something i was familiar with, i craned my head over George to see who it was, their back turned but their shoulders fully exposed as their white shirt fell a little too low for a 'meeting'.

"Hello boys nice to see you again." The voice spoke as she turned her head to face us. I groaned as i ran my fingers through my hair,

"Fuc.king hell." I groaned out as i was instantly thrown into a worse mood.

"Well sh.it." Adam said as he looked back at the rest of us. George and Ross shared the same look of annoyance as we had to take our seats.

"No hello?" Gemma pestered on. I rolled my eyes as im sure the rest of them did,

"Hi." a meak response was generated through the four of us as Reed shut the door to his office.

"So! I hear from miss Janes that you are all acquainted." Reed said with a deep smile. I smirked as i laughed to myself, you could say we were 'acquainted'. George spoke up as he settled into his seat,

"You could say that." His eyes flickered to mine, and for a moment we locked gazes something was communicated between us and it went along the lines of wanting to get the hell out of here.

"Well we wanted to discuss when we can actually begin shooting for the Medicine video. I know you gentlemen are going to become quite busy with album writing and playing some shows." Reed stated. He did his homework,

"We will be mainly writing here in Los Angeles, but we will have few out of country shows." Ross spoke with his foreign professional voice.

"I see, well can you give me an estimate when you will be leaving so my company does not interfere with your travels Mr. MacDonald." Reed said looking down at some papers he kept messily around his desk. However i couldn't help the feelings of eyes burning into the side of my skull. I tore my eyes away from Ross's explanation and looked to my left. Gemma's bright eyes were staring right at me, and at first i jumped back at their intensity. Her pupils were so blown, her lips parted slightly as she looked down. What was this primary days? We are not children, but there was no denying she was looking at me. I stiffened in my seat as i turned back to Reed.

"We plan on filming for about a month and a half, and considering you don't have any out of country shows to play that works in our favor." Reed said looking up from the stacks of papers on his desk.

"So when do you plan on having us on your set to begin filming?" Adam said folding his hands on his knee, i smiled softly.

"Well we'd like to begin offical shooting in about a month but we would love to schedule a photo shoot in a week or so? Or we can push it till after the shoot, we can comply with your schedule as well." Reed said looking at all of us. When his eyes scanned over Gemma i spoke up,
