My eyes flutter open as I hear shuffling around the room. Tightly I squeeze my eyes together before opening one eye seeing Hailee hovered over her bag and pulling out a pair of pants. A small smile tugs on my lips as I close my eye and move slightly, propping myself up on the bed. My eyes reopening.
"Where are you going?" I ask, my voice sleepy but the girl jumps. A small chuckle escapes my lips as she turns her body towards me. She smiles lightly and walks over.
"I got to go into the studio earlier than you. Remember we have a song to record today?" Hailee questions as she gets to the bed. I make a puzzled face, racking my brain as the girl sits down on the edge. Her hazel eyes never leaving mine.
"The studio? This early? Nope I don't allow it," I say, turning so I'm laying down now, on my back. Hailee playfully rolls her eyes and shrugs.
"It'll be fine. We wrote a good song, great song and I want people to hear it sooner rather than later," Hailee informs me and I nod seeing her go to stand. She leans over me and pecks my lips. I peck back and when she pulls away and I hurriedly grab her wrist and pull her back.
A laughter escapes her lips and I shake my head bringing her back down to the bed. She falls back and her head hits the pillow as my arms are securely wrapped around her.
"Don't leave me. I still require Hailee time," I whine, closing my eyes and burying my face in the crook of her neck. More laughs escape her quietly as she moves a little.
"Y/n, I can't. I really got to go-" She pauses cupping my cheek in the palm of her hand. Her thumb gently rubbing back and forth as I pick up my head and gently set my chin on her chest. Her hand moving off of my cheek to my hair, running her hand through it as I can imagine it already being messed up.
"Just five more minutes," I beg, my eyes doing that one puppy dog look. Hailee's hazel eyes shift between mine and a soft gaze spreads her eyes as she sighs.
"Y/n, I have to-" I move carefully leaning up and locking our lips making her go quiet. She eases into the kiss rather quickly and when I pull away and I watch her eyes flutter open I notice her lips curve upwards.
"Does that get you to stay?" I raise a brow and a knowing look spreads her face as she shrugs.
"Mm I don't know yet."
I roll my eyes playfully and lean in again. Our lips locking again before I pull away. Her lips separate and I search her eyes but none the less I lean forward again, but instead of kissing her soft delicate lips I kiss down her jaw line to her neck. I feel her hands run through my hair again.
"Y/n, I have to-" She pauses and a little gasp escapes her lips as I go back up her neck and down her jawline again to her lips. But when I feel her hands remove from my hair and gently push me, I pull away immediately. I look at her, locking our eyes. "I have to go. I wish I could stay."
"Me too." I pout out my lip and lay my head down on her chest.
"You're making this extremely difficult," Hailee says and I nod my head against her chest.
"Yes, yes I am."
"Nope. I'm not giving in. Come on. You need to get motivated anyways," Hailee spoke, a softness still on her voice as she moves. A low sigh escapes my lips as I roll off of her and back onto my side of the bed, laying on my back. I place my hands underneath my head to prop myself up spotting the girl fixing her hair in the mirror. A smile spreads to my lips as I admire her. And before long she turns and our eyes lock. She tilts her head with a soft no teeth smile as she walks around the bed and comes back over to me.
"I'll see you in two hours," She whispers before pecking my lips. I say nothing, only kiss her back and then she heads to the door. My eyes follow her nonetheless but it when she leaves, I tear my eyes from the door. I remove my hands from behind my head and remove the blanket off of me.
I slide out of the bed and head to the closet changing out of my current clothing and changing into sweats and a hoodie. When I finish I walk back over to the bed and grab my phone off of the night stand before heading out the door and down the stairs.
It was quiet. Really quiet but didn't stop me from making my way down and to the couch. I sit down and pull out my phone. Things have been quiet and I actually like it that way. The constant blowing up my phone drives me crazy sometimes. The quiet's nice.
I go into social media, scrolling through everything. My eyes looking and scanning everything letting myself getting involved into the world of technology.
"Good morning you," Aunt May speaks as I glance up from my phone. I smile lightly.
"Good morning to you too Aunty," I respond as Aunt May crosses her arms over her chest.
"What are you doing up so early?"
"I have to head to the studio and record that song soon," I respond, placing my phone down on my lap. "What are you doing up so early?"
"I have to get the day going. I also have to make a few phone calls," Aunt May says before yawning loudly. "Which I'm going to go start some coffee. You want any?"
"I'm good, thank you," I say as she nods dropping her arms from her chest and walking to the kitchen. I reach down for my phone before hearing Aunt May stop walking.
"Oh and by the way-" I pick up my head locking eyes with the woman who smirks playfully. I tilt my head to the side. "If you two are going to have your, quote on quote fun time, maybe make sure everyone else in the house is asleep."
I stare at the woman trying to figure out what she meant then I slowly got it. My eyes go wide and my jaw drops for a brief moment. I sit up and go to speak as my Aunt gives me this knowing look.
"I'm not going to tell you not ti do it, you'll do it either way. But um... Make sure people are asleep before you start fooling around. The walls are thin in this old house of mine."
I close my lips and look down. My cheeks burn and I can only imagine how red they were. I stand up and point towards the door.
"I think I'm gonna head to the studio now. I'll um..." My voice trails and I walk towards the door, avoiding eye contact.
"Cat caught your tongue Y/n dear?" Aunt May asks and I shake my head from side to side, getting to the door and slipping on my vans.
"Im good. No, no. I'll text you or call later. Bye Aunt May!" I quickly say grabbing my keys and opening the door. I rush out hearing my Aunt laugh as the door closes behind me. I feel myself let out a deep heavy breathe as I hear the door close.
My head shakes as a little smile curves upwards on my lips. A chuckle escaping my lips feeling like a teenager that was caught. I chuckle again and walk down the sidewalk to my car chuckling again before letting a relieving sigh escapes my lips as I climb into the car.
<<<<>>>>
Hailee's voice is heard singing angelically as I enter the studio. A guy sits at the keyboard, adjusting and making sure everything runs smoothly. I walk in and stand with my arms across my chest next to him. He glances up and holds up a fist. I fist bump him and nod.
"She sounds amazing," I say and he nods.
"This is the 2nd track of her EP. She says you two have a duet to record," he says and I nod.
"Yep. I'm Y/n Brooks," I respond.
"AP Wallace," he responds. Hailee's voice comes to a stop and I look at her. Her eyes open and a smile forms on her face. But goes even wider as her hazel eyes meet mine. Instantly she takes off her headphones and gets up off of the stool heading to the door. AP adjusts some stuff as my eyes focus away from that and to Hailee who comes out from the studio.
"Hey, I thought we said 10?" Hailee questions walking over and pecking my lips. I kiss back before we pull apart and I nod.
"Yeah I just wanted to come sooner to see you," I say and Hailee smiles looking towards AP. I glance over my shoulder seeing him stand, nodding at us. Confusion dawns over me as I watch him leave leaving Hailee and I alone.
"Is he not recording us?" I ask and Hailee shakes her head.
"I thought we could just do it ourselves. It's not hard-" Hailee pauses walking around me and sitting down on the chair AP was just sitting at. I turn on my heels and take a seat in the chair beside her.
"Is it just me or does this feel a little like-"
"Deja vu?" Hailee finishes my sentence. I lightly smile with a nod as I lean back in the chair and look down at my lap.
"Oh by the way, my Aunt heard us last night," I say, keeping my voice low. I pick up my head and see Hailee's cheeks grow red as a nervous smile remains on her lips. She drops her head in her hands and shakes her head from side to side.
"Oh my god. Oh my god!" Hailee exclaims, the nervousness in her voice causes me to sink my teeth into my bottom lip trying to stop myself from chuckling.
Hailee removes her hands from her face and throws her head back. Her eyes staring straight up at the ceiling. "I can never show my face there again."
A laugh escapes my lips as I lean forward and grab her hand. I squeeze it tightly, reassuringly.
"It's fine. I was embarrassed too but it's kind of... Yeah no I agree," I say making up my mind halfway through. Hailee lowers her head and our eyes meet. We look at one another for a long moment before both of us crack up laughing.
"Maybe we shouldn't be...doing it at your Aunt's house," Hailee suggests and I tilt my head, placing my hand on my chest.
"What? No. Really?"I gasp as Hailee giggles and reaches over, pushing my arm. I chuckle and shake my head letting go of her hand. "To be fair you started it."
"I started it? What are we 6 years old?"
"Six year olds can barely complete a sentence."
"Fair but the blame game-"
"You were in a black lingerie outfit. You started it. Now get your cute little ass in that studio so we can get this song sung and published," I smile cutting her off. I stand up and reach out my hands. Hailee reaches up and grabs my hands as I pull her up to her feet. She walks past me and I go after her wrapping my arms around her waist.
"You think I have a cute ass?" Hailee questions as we push through the door.
"I think you have a cute everything," I respond unwrapping my arms from around her waist and walk over to the two stools. We grab headphones and place them on. A self made keyboard thing is set up next to Hailee for her to press when we need it. We both sit down and I cough a bit, clearing my throat.
"You ready?" Hailee asks, turning her head towards me. I smile and put up a thumbs up. She smiles back and turns away pressing a button as we're in studio mode. And after a couple seconds of silence we begin our harmonies.
