POV Y/n

He sat down, took a deep breath and started explaining:

"

- So bestie, I don't know if we jinxed it but John is cheating on you

- With who?

- You won't believe me if I tell you

- Well tell me anyway because I can't imagine someone 

- The secretary

- Janet? I almost shouted

- Yup. Saw them right in the act

- We're going there, but we're getting drinks first

- Fuck yeah

- I have a second car, hop in

"

I grabbed my keys,  we first drove to Starbucks to get iced coffees and we then went to the agency. I entered the training room and saw John alone with his notebook:

"

- Hey bitch

- Oh hi Y/n! I'm so happy to see you!

- You're fired! I said with a huge smile

- What? What do you mean? What did I do?

- You cheated, I think that's good enough

- I didn't cheat, you know me I would never do that

- You did, I have this pic, you and the secretary look real good in there. I showed him the pic on Hope's phone

- That's not me. He denied

- It's not you

- Yeah it's Photoshop

- You swear to God? I was on the verge of bursting out laughing but I had to be serious

- I swear to God

- Trick question, I know you're an atheist. Get your bags from the dorms and leave before tomorrow

- You don't have the power to do that! Only the CEO can fire me

- I'm glad you brought it up because I actually do have the power. I bring millions to the company every year, I can do whatever the fuck I want

- That's why everyone thinks you're a bitch

- Excuse you? 

- You know, no one here likes you. You're only respected because of your title, but they hate you deep down. No one will ever like you for who you really are

- Now you're just mad and wants to make me feel bad but that won't work okay. Just leave with the remaining dignity you have left okay?

- Bitch

- Your mom and I have so much in common don't you think?

"

He left and I was left alone with Hope who was sipping on his large iced coffee. We made eye contact and burst out laughing. We went to see the rest of the group to tell them the news and they were pretty mad at him. I didn't actually care for some reasons. We just sat down, ate lunch and discussed about our upcoming events like working on my new album and my world tour and all of that. We spent the rest of the day together and late at night I drove back home. When I got home I played some of my songs, especially "Get you" because I was really proud of it. I served myself a glass of iced hibiscus tea and drank it while dancing around and singing. I felt a familiar presence in my house:

"

- Illumi, I have told thousands of times to knock and wait for me to open the door. Stop sneaking in!

- Well hello to you too

- How was your day? I asked, getting another glass for him

- It was pretty normal, killed a few people here and there

- Right... forgot that was a job. Here, drink up. I gave him a glass of iced tea that he drank

- What about you?

- What? I paused the music

- How was your day? He asked

- Eventful I would say. I'm single now

- You and John broke up?

- Yup, he cheated on me. I refilled my glass

- Do you want me to kill him? He stood up

- No! Lord, you don't have to kill someone anytime something happens. Don't kill anyone

- How do you feel about that?

- My breakup? He nodded. Well, I don't feel much, maybe I just didn't love him in the first place but thought I did

- Oh

- Also, I'm going to tour in a few weeks. I just need to finish my album and I'll pack my bags

"

I grabbed the pitcher and walked down to my studio, like every time I had to compose a whole album I would pull an all nighter and sleep in my studio for three weeks, take a week long break and restart for a few months. I grabbed my computer, instruments, notepad and worked for a few hours, spun around my chair, stood up, walked. Sang out loud until I was tired enough. I knew the kind of vibe I wanted for my songs, I just needed to work on the lyrics which can take up a ton of time. Then there was recording, rerecording, sending the songs to the CEO, film the music videos, all the photo shoots. It was gonna take up to 8 months, but I didn't mind, I loved my job. 

I worked for the most part with Illumi behind me who would stand over my shoulder once in a while to look at what I was doing or listen to a few recordings. He didn't say anything, he didn't comment, just silently watched. I had no idea what he was thinking about or what he thought about it. When the sun started to rise I was starting to feel a bit tired, I continued working and went to sleep on the couch at like 7 am.

I woke up at 1 pm, grabbed some fruits and went back to work. I took a few breaks to eat, drink or just walk around and fell asleep again at 3 am. 

This routine went on for three week until I decided to take a week off and go to the agency to make sure the boys are still alive. I took a shower, put some clothes on and walked to the agency. I got there, greeted everyone and the boys and I sat on the floor of the practice room and just talked. I helped them practice a few things, I had lunch with them and when it was getting a bit late I took my first car that I had originally left here the last time Hope took it and I drove home.

At home I had a snack and decided to read a book.
