Maddie's POV
It was Thursday morning and was almost time to head to the studio.

Lauren had just headed to the lobby and Drew walked over, smiling.

"Hey," he said.

She smiled. "Hey. You're gonna do great," she said, then gave him a quick kiss. Which turned into a long one.

I sighed, looking at my phone.

"Hey lovebirds, cut it out," someone said laughing as he walked over.

Sergio.

I hadn't hung out with him that much over the past 2 months (it'd already been that long ????), but Michael was always talking about how funny he was.

Drew laughed. "Hey Serg."

"Hey." But Sergio wasn't looking at Drew.

He was looking at Lauren.

Oh snap.

"What's up?" Brady asked, walking up.

Rayanna had left cause she'd been here cause she's Devins cousin, and now he was eliminated, so...

"Yeah, what happened?" Lauren asked, confused.

I looked at them. "What do you mean?"

"You just said 'Oh snap,'" Drew said, mocking my voice teasingly.

I groaned. I really had to stop thinking out loud.

"Oh, nothing," I said, brushing it off.

"What's nothing?" Someone asked, hugging me from behind.

I giggled. "Hey."

"Hey MC," he whispered in my ear, then kissed my cheek.

I blushed.

"Oh BARF, let's go already," Brady said.

"You're just jealous cause your girlfriends not here," Michael said, arm around my waist as we walked outside.

Brady just scoffed.

"Poor guy," I said, laughing.

Michael grinned. "Remember last time we teased him about that? And then Jay and him were hugging cause Jay was like 'I'm lonely too?'"

I laughed. "Yeah. Wow, that was forever ago."

He nodded, running his hand through his hair. "This summer flew by."

"Yeah. I can't believe it's almost over," I said sadly.

He sighed. "I can't believe the finale is next week."

"Same. By the way, have you gotten clearance to do you written rap instead of the one they wrote? If you make the band?"

He groaned. "No. They're still working on it. Maddie, seriously, it's the cringiest rap ever. Wanna know what the first line is?"

We'd gotten in the van now, sitting together in the back row.

I giggled. "What?"

"Holy smokes I'm lucky."

I burst out laughing, and so did the rest of the van.

"We all had to record the rap. It was HILARIOUS," Brady said.

I laughed harder at the image of Brady and Chance rapping. Any of the top 8 besides Michael, actually.

"Do I wanna know the next line?" I asked.

"It's even worse," Drew said laughing, who was sitting with Lauren up front.

"Brady, who don't you demonstrate?" Mikey asked.
