"No tears left to cry"

Ariana's POV

My head was on Zion's chest and my fingers were tracing shapes on his abdomen. He was sleeping, but I wasn't. Nothing new.
I raised my head from his chest and looked at him, a smile creeping on my face. He's literally so adorable. His mouth was slightly opened, his face was relaxed and his dreads were everywhere. He looked cute, as always.

As I was looking at him our conversation from last night came in my mind. It felt so good to get that out of my chest.
I don't know why but some words were stuck on my mind. I looked around and saw my notebook on the desk. I grabbed Zion's shirt and put it on. I slowly walked towards the desk and grabbed the notebook and walked back to the bed and made myself comfortable.

I wrote down the words that were on my mind.
"I'm in a state of mind,I wanna be in like all the time."
"Ain't got no tears left to cry."

I stared at those words for five minutes as ideas and lyrics were made. It's honestly crazy how a song can be created and you only need a few words.
You know the conversation that we had made me realize that I don't want to live like that anymore. I just need to pick everything up and try my best to keep myself happy. And it'll be easy because I have Zion, the boys and the girls, my new family.
That's when it hit me. The lyrics came all together and I decided that the song will start with a part of the chorus.

Right now, I'm in a state of mind
I wanna be in like all the time
Ain't got no tears left to cry
So I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up
I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up (oh, yeah)

I'm pickin' it up (yeah), pickin' it up (yeah)
Lovin', I'm livin', so we turnin' up
Yeah, we turnin' it up

Well this sounds good.
I stopped writing and memories started filling up my mind. I remember that... every time I'd cry I would do it until I couldn't cry anymore. And I liked it. I liked it because I knew I wasn't gonna cry anymore. And that's when the lyrics came again. I picked up the pen and started writing again.

Ain't got no tears in my body
I ran out, but boy, I like it, I like it, I like it
Don't matter how, what, where, who tries it
We're out here vibin', we vibin', we vibin'

Comin' out, even when it's rainin' down
Can't stop now, can't stop so shut your mouth
Shut your mouth, and if you don't know
Then now you know it, babe
Know it, babe, yeah

You know, it's really easy to see if someone gets you, if they understand you. And to be honest I truly believe that me and Zion complete each other. I really love this guy. I really do.
I smiled and picked up the pen again and started writing and out of instinct, I blocked out everything around me.

Right now, I'm in a state of mind
I wanna be in, like, all the time
Ain't got no tears left to cry
So I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up (oh yeah)
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up

Oh, I just want you to come with me
We're on another mentality
Ain't got no tears left to cry
So I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up
Pickin' it up, pickin' it up
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up (oh, yeah)
Yeah, we turnin' it up

Zion's POV

I slowly opened my eyes and saw that Ari wasn't asleep. She was writing on her notebook. A small smile formed on my face knowing that she'll finish another song but a frown took over when I realized that she didn't sleep at all. I could tell that from the bags under her eyes and the fact that she didn't notice that I woke up. I got up and I looked over her shoulder at the song. Damn, it's a good one. She really can do everything, huh?

She's writing so fast, I don't even understand how this is possible. Before I knew it a new verse was written on the paper.

They point out the colors in you, I see 'em too
And, boy, I like 'em, I like 'em, I like 'em
We're way too fly to partake in all this hate
We out here vibin', we vibin', we vibin'

Comin' out, even when it's rainin' down
Can't stop now, can't stop, so shut your mouth
Shut your mouth, and if you don't know
Then now you know it, babe
Know it, babe, yeah

Well fuck me. She's amazing. I don't want to interrupt her because she might lose her ideas and I don't want that. Because she'll get anxious and I hate that. So I just stayed silent and watched my baby girl working as she finished the song.

Right now, I'm in a state of mind
I wanna be in, like, all the time
Ain't got no tears left to cry
So I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up (oh yeah)
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up

Oh, I just want you to come with me
We're on another mentality
Ain't got no tears left to cry (so don't cry)
So I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up (oh yeah)
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up

Comin' out, even when it's rainin' down
Can't stop now
Shut your mouth
Ain't got no tears left to cry
Oh yeah, oh yeah

Oh, I just want you to come with me
We're on another mentality
Ain't got no tears left to cry (cry)
So I'm pickin' it up, pickin' it up (oh yeah)
I'm lovin', I'm livin', I'm pickin' it up

Pickin' it up (yeah), pickin' it up (yeah)
Lovin', I'm livin', so we turnin' up
Yeah, we turnin' it up

"You are amazing" I said after she finished and I guess I scared her pretty bad because she literally felt from the bed
"Ouch. Zion what the fuck" she said laughing
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you" I said and grabbed her arms, picking her up
"Well you did" she said and got back in bed
"I'm sorry" I said and kissed her cheek
"It's fine. How long have you been up?" She asked smiling
"Long enough to see how you finished a whole song in like 20 minutes" I said and laid down as she puts her head on my chest.
She smiled and kissed my chest.
"You know...you need to sleep baby" I whispered
"I know. I just couldn't I guess." She whispered back
I sighed and shook my head
"This is not healthy baby" I said
"I know...I'm sorry" she said and got up
"You don't have to be sorry mamas. Just please try to get some sleep ok?" I said and I grabbed her face
She nodded and smiled
"Now. It's 2 a.m sooooo" I said and opened my arms for her to get comfortable
She placed herself in my arms and kissed me one more time
"I love you" She whispered
"I love you even more mamas" I said and kissed her forehead before we both fell asleep.
