Chapter 6
~Alix's POV~
*********
The boys and I have been talking for almost a full forty-five minutes and I know so much about them. Harry is the adorable one, Louis is the funny one, Liam is the smart one, Niall is the irish one, and Zayn is the mysterous one. I have to say, they are all kind of cute. Honest.
The guys and I walk into the record building, when we go up to the fifth floor, Quinn tells me that Dr. Dre is here and is waiting for me. I grow nervous. Dr. Dre to me is the big deal. I have to be picture perfect for him. I look at the guys.
"I have-"
"No, go ahead. We'll listen to you" says Harry.
I smile.
"Thanks" I say.
Quinn pulls me by the hand to the recording studio that Dr. Dre is in. We arrive and I see Dr. Dre sitting in the chair. I rush into the recording booth and put on the heaphones. I hear Dr. Dre's voice through the speakers in the room.
"Ready?" he asks.
I look and see One Direction standing behind him quietly.
I smile.
"Ready" I say.
"Dynamite by Taio Cruz. Cover by Alix Lapri- get ready" he says. He starts the music. "And go."
I listen to the sound and rythm of the beat and music as I sing.
"I came to dance, dance, dance, dance
I hit the floor 'cause that's my plans, plans, plans, plans
I’m wearing all my favorite brands, brands, brands, brands
Give me some space for both my hands, hands, hands, hands
Ye, ye
'Cause it goes on and on and on.......
And it goes on and on and on......" I sing.
Now time for the first chorus.
"Yeah!
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes,
Saying AYO! gotta let go!
I wanna celebrate and live my life,
Saying AYO! baby, let’s go!
'Cause we gon’ rock this club,
We gon’ go all night,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!
'Cause I told you once,
Now I told you twice,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!" I continue.
I see a hint of pleasure on Dr. Dre's face as I sing. So I don't stop.
"I came to move, move, move, move
Get out the way me and my crew, crew, crew, crew
I’m in the club so I’m gonna do, do, do, do
Just what the f-ck, came here to do, do, do, do
Ye, ye
'Cause it goes on and on and on.......
And it goes on and on and on........" I go.
"Yeah!
I throw my hands up in the air sometimes,
Saying AYO! gotta let go!
I wanna celebrate and live my life,
Saying AYO! baby, let’s go!
'Cause we gon’ rock this club,
We gon’ go all night,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!
'Cause I told you once,
Now I told you twice,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!" I add.
I start to dance a little as I sing the bridge. I have been told that I am a great dancer like Micheal and Janet Jackson and Jaden Smith, so why not.
"I’m gonna take it all, I,
I’m gonna be the last one standing.
Higher over all, I,
I’m gonna be the last one landing.
Cause I, I, I.. believe it,
And I, I, I .. I just want it all.....
I just want it all.....
I’m gonna put my hands in the air!
Hands, hands in the air!
Put your hands in the air!" I sing.
As the music continues I bop a little and get ready to sing the last part.
"I throw my hands up in the air sometimes,
Saying AYO! gotta let go!
I wanna celebrate and live my life,
Saying AYO! baby, let’s go!
'Cause we gon’ rock this club,
We gon’ go all night,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!
'Cause I told you once,
Now I told you twice,
We gon’ light it up,
Like it’s dynamite!" I go on.
And done!

*******
Amazing! Just amazing! She was so great. Never in my life have I ever seen someone so in rythm and can dance like that or sing like that! She was...wow. Alix takes off the headphones and walks out of the recording booth. Dr. Dre stands up and looks at Alix.
A nervous smile comes across Alix's face.
"Alix..." he trails off. "I. Liked it."
Alix smiles. Dr. Dre tells her something but I barely catch it since he speaks softly and nearly whispers. He and Alix then hug and he leaves. Alix turns her attention to us and smiles.
"WHOO!" she cries out smiling.
"WHOO!" the rest of us cry out.
Alix wraps her arms around us and smiles.
We take it down a little and Alix speaks.
"I have been trying my best to impress Dr. Dre since I got a record deal. This is GREAT!" she says.
I laugh.
"Okay, calm down" says Zayn. "Now, relax before we start the album."
We agree...even Alix.
To much excitment isn't a good thing when you are preparing to sing.
"I got a feeling that this album will work out" says Alix. "You guys are awesome."
I blush almost.
Maybe it will go fine.

Later in the evening, the guys and I head back to the tour bus to get some sleep. As I try to get some sleep, all I can think about is singing with Alix. I mean, she is so pretty and so...amazing. Who wouldn't want to sing with a girl like her.
From dancing, singing, acting. She is one of a kind.
My lashes start to flutter as I think about it.
Soon enough, I find my eyelids shut.
Now I am asleep.
Preparing to sing with the lovely Alix Lapri.
