{Trevor's POV}
"Hey."
"Trev! Hey," Tabby's voice was ringing through my ears happily, & I let out a little laugh.
"Guess what?"
"Did you buy me a zebra with a walrus limb yet?" I could imagine her grinning, but the way she says zebra is cute. She pronounces it like 'Zeh-brah'.
"I'll sidenote that. But no, I'm in the studio aaaanddd it's going to be a duet! Would you like to be part in it?" Right after I asked, she made this weird squeal noise that sounded like a walrus attracting a mate, so I started laughing at her. I put the phone on speaker, "Is that a yes, Tabby?"
"Of course! When should I come down to record?" She asked, & I looked at Shelby, the recording lady, who nodded in approval.
"Tomorrow. I'll see you later, babe." And I hung up with a smile. Shelby gave me a thumbs up, & I hugged her. "Thanks, Shelby. Are you working tomorrow?"
"Yes, I have to deal with this little twerp tomorrow named Trevor Moran." She grinned, & messed up my hair.
"Aye! Do not mess my hair up," I lightly poked her, "Bye, Shelby. See you tomorrow." And I was off to see my mom.

{Tabitha's POV}
I started humming a tune in my head. I haven't gone to sleep yet, & it's 3:14 in the morning. My mind has been preoccupied with the song I'm writing, I missed this hobby. A great idea flashed through my mind, & I turned on my Macbook. I went to my music editor, & started collecting all these synthetic beats together. Ten minutes passed, & I got the beginning rhythm down, so I continued on the lyrics.
"Blades of grass grow, above the ones we love, sons & daughters, mine is caught between life & the unthinkable, I can't lose you, I won't lose you...." I saved a file of the beginning lyrics, & started mixing it in with the beat. Score for Tabitha! It fits perfectly together. Smiling, I signed onto Youtube & checked my subscriptions. Boring, boring, boring...... Nigahiga uploaded? ... Nah.
'TOXIC WASTE CHALLENGE || CONNOR FRANTA'
I smiled automatically, & clicked it. The challenge actually looked really gross but fun, as of, you mix a lot of different edible/drinkable items into a blender, blend them, & drink it... ALL. Connor put in potato soup, chocolate chip cookies, french fries, strawberries, & bacon in it for the food part, but he also poured some lemonade, Mountain Dew, milk, & coffee in there. It was this revolting brownish-orange color, & just the look of it made my stomach churn. He took a sip, & made a pucker-face. I smiled lightly, containing my laughter so the others can sleep. Once he finished it, he told us once again how distgusting it was.
"OKAY, I'M GONNA GOOOO! Sothisweekwedidchallengeweek, andichosethetoxicwastechallenge whichdoesn'tactuallycontaintoxinsbutitwasutterlyratchetanddistgustingbutfunatthesametimebutidontknow BUYHHEEEE!" And he covered the video recorder. A smile appeared on my lips, & I signed out of youtube. Saving my song-in-process, I shut it down & scurried up into my snuggie.

I spent basically two hours daydreaming about my fantasies, like having a werewolf boyfriend or becoming a famous youtuber because of Tyler Oakley. When it was six in the morning, I got up & went in the shower. My clothes made their way to the floor, & I put my hair down. NUDITY FOR THE WIN. Turning on the pulse, I still heard the same snores, so I haven't woke anyone up. Step, step... and the water was perfect. A happy sigh escaped my lips, & I squirted some citrus soap on my little scrub. No more dirt or scum, yes. My shampoo & conditioner was raspberry smelling, & made it shine immensly. After 5 minutes, I alternated the pulse to cold, & washed my face with my cleaners. I love the feeling of being clean. Slowly, I pushed in the little shower knob & got out of the tub. Grabbing one of the towels, I dried my hair fastly, replaced my towel on my body, & went back into my room. With the door closed, I slowly creaked open the closet, & searched for what I was going to wear. Red underwear with a matching bra, Black skinny jeans, a regular loose flannel tee, & my black hightops, which had 2 red stripes on each shoe. My hair was horrid, so I automatically ran to the mirror, brushed my hair, & placed it in a loose braid. No make-up today. I sprintzed some perfume on, grabbed my phone, & went downstairs. The boys all woke up, & started cleaning up.
"Awww, thanks guys!" I squeaked, my voice going hoarse.
"Why are you all dressed?" JC questioned, his morning voice coming out a bit.
"I have to do some stuff with Trev today," Connor grinned at me, & returned to his cleaning, "But I got to leave like.... Now, so are you guys going to stay here?"
"Nah, we're heading back to Kian's." Ricky's lisp came out, & I giggled slightly.
"Alright, bye, guys!" I all hugged them, & Connor whispered something in my ear.
"I'll see you soon, Tabs." The rasp in his voice came out, & I just nodded.
"Just stay here, because I have the keys. Bye, dude." I patted Connor's back, & he agreed to stay back. I put my keys & phone in my pocket, grabbed my longboard, & headed towards Trevor's recording studio, since he gave me the details. I stopped at Starbucks, & I ran into someone I never thought I'd see again.
"Tabitha?" His voice croaked, & I bit my lip.
"Hey, Blake." I said nicely, & he waved. His brown hair was all sweeped up in a quiff, his brown eyes bigger than ever, his tan is still the same. Green American Eagle tee, grey jeans, & fullout black Vans.
"What's up, Tab?" He smiled, & I gulped. I didn't know how to respond, I was still mad at him for what he did back in 7th grade.
"Uh, just getting a coffee. I assume you're doing the same?" My voice was getting hoarse again.
"Yeah. Hey, are you busy after this?"
"Yes." I rushed out my answer.
The person in front of me got theur coffee & walked off.
"Welcome to Starbucks, how may I help you?" The man asked nicely, & I gave him a smile.
"I'll have a-" I was cut off.
"One Caramel Frappuccino Blended Beverage with extra whipped cream & a Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino Blended Beverage with extra cookie crumbs but no peanut butter cookies, thank you." Blake ended with a smile, & handed the worker a ten dollar bill. When the man put it in the cash register, he started making the drinks & I faced Blake.
"Why are you so nice to me suddenly, Blake?"
"Why not?"
"You remember what you did, & you still buy me coffee."
"Look, I tried apologizing for it, but you never wanted to listen."
"Because it was all bullshit. You know what you did was wrong, but you still did it anyways."
"Come on, it wasn't my fault!"
"Oh, so kissing her wasn't your doing?"
"I can ex-"
"Or, feeling up her shirt wasn't your doing, either?"
"Tab-"
"I don't know, maybe our broken friendship wasn't your fault either, aye?"
"Just let me explain-"
"Here's your drinks, sir. Names?"
"Rigby for the caramel & Mordecai for the other."
The man wrote down the names, & I stared at Blake. He still remembered the names we used, & what we would buy. He handed us our drinks, & I groaned a thanks to Blake.
"Hey, we'll keep in contact, right?"
"I don't know. Thanks, Blake." I smiled lightly, & longboarded away.
*******
"Uh, hello?" I knock on the studio door, & someone opens up. "Erm, this is Trevor's recording station, right?"
"Yes, ma'am! You must be in his new duet song." She smiled, her blonde bangs moving to the side.
"Yes, I am!" She grabs my hand gently, & shows me around.
"This is the recording station, you can review the song whilst we wait on Trevor." She beamed a smile, & I nodded.
"Stay with me, baby stay with me,
Tonight don't leave me alone.
Walk with me, come and walk with me,
To the edge of all we've ever known.
I can see you there with the city lights,
Fourteenth floor, pale blue eyes.
I can breathe you in.
Two shadows standing by the bedroom door,
No, I could not want you more than I did right then,
As our heads leaned in.
Well, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,
But with my eyes closed all I see
Is the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below.
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.
Stay with me, baby stay with me,
Tonight don't leave me alone.
She shows me everything she used to know,
Picture frames and country roads,
When the days were long and the world was small.
She stood by as it fell apart,
Separate rooms and broken hearts,
But I won't be the one to let you go.
Oh, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,
But with my eyes closed all I see
Is the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below.
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.
Don't run away...
And it's hard to love again,
When the only way it's been,
When the only love you knew,
Just walked away...
If it's something that you want,
Darling you don't have to run,
You don't have to go ...
Just stay with me, baby stay with me,
Well, I'm not sure what this is gonna be,
But with my eyes closed all I see
Is the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below. (Don't let go)
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly.
Oh, I'm not sure where this is gonna go,
But in this moment all I know
Is the skyline, through the window,
The moon above you and the streets below. (Baby, don't let go)
Hold my breath as you're moving in,
Taste your lips and feel your skin.
When the time comes, baby don't run, just kiss me slowly."
I stopped singing the song, & I saw two eyes staring at me.
"That was perfect."
