Lento

Chapter 5

A few weeks pass and you're still working on the. You wake up in the studio, again, and Callie walks in with fresh clothes and a coffee.

"You didn't have this okay?"

You nod. You're not allowed anything with caffeine in. It will effect you badly. Callie walks out. You change and drink the coffee before grabbing your bag and heading to your car.

"Where to?"

"Miami high please."

When you get there you see Lucy.

"Is that your car?"

"It's a long story." You say.

"Where were you yesterday?"

"Again, long story." You say.

You two go inside. Your phone buzzes.

LaurenJauregui
You down to record today?

Kid
I cant.
I've gotta go to school today.
I'll be good tomorrow or even tonight.

LaurenJauregui
Sure.
Whenever you're free.
It gives me a little more time to get ready.
See you tonight.
Or tomorrow.

Kid
See you then.

"Who you texting?"

"Callie."

Lucy nods. You and Lucy have music first. That's where you go. You two work on a song together.

"Hey Lucy?"

"Yeah?"

"If i was to drop out of school and become a musician, would i be okay to use this song?" You ask.

"Yeah? Why? Are you considering dropping out?"

"I have been for the past year." You say.

Your phone rings.

"Now? Really? One second."

You stand up and answer.

"Simon, I'm at school. I cant be on my phone."

"I know but Lauren's schedule is full for a while and you need to get this recorded now."

"Simon, man, really?"

"Unfortunately yes. I'm sorry but this needs to be done now. I'm sending your driver. Be ready in 15."

The call ends.

"Damn it."

"Y/n?" Lucy asks.

"Problem. Sorry. Uh... what were we doing? The song. Yeah the song."

"Yn what's wrong?"

"Nothing. I'm okay. Totally fine. Definitely not freaking out at all."

"Why are you freaking out?"

"I have no idea. I dont know. I'm not freaking out."

Someone knocks on the door.
