The Wretched And The Divine
Band Meeting
March 14, 2014
Isis POV
Today was the day Ashley was suppose to go to the band meeting. They were meeting Bob Rock for the first time to start the preproduction of BVB4. This made me nervous because we haven't seen CC and Gemma since that huge fight. Ashley was still upset that CC laid his hands on me and I was still mad at Gemma for the things that were said. I was going through his closet where I had a few of my clothes hanging. I picked up a black shirt and noticed it had a little bit of glitter and a few sequins. After smelling it and looking at the label I realize that it wasn't my shirt. I don't own anything glittery or anything with sequins, so where could have this come from and why is this on Ashley's shirt? Was he cheating on me? I continued to look around and started to dig through his pockets in his shorts and pants to see if I can dig up any evidence and only found a few one dollar bills that was inside a folded sheet of paper which was a flyer to a strip club. Was this where he was disappearing off to? I heard footsteps approach the door and I quickly shoved the money and flyer back into his pants before I quickly grabbed my clothes I chose for myself out of the closet. Just in time too since Ashley just walked in. After getting dressed, we headed out.
We arrived to the practice studio before Gemma and CC. Which was good because we could have a chance to relax before the meeting. It wasn’t long before they turned up though, CC seemed fine, but Gemma, well lets just say that the Arctic Circle would have been warmer right now. The looks she was giving both me and Ashley were enough to kill. The both sat as far away from us as possible. The guys, who were here before us, could tell something had happened, but we hadn’t told then what. Gemma, who I know hadn’t told anyone here about the baby, was purposely wearing a loose fitting shirt, possibly to hide a bump. I don’t know if she was showing or not yet, I missed the friendship we’d had before, I missed having someone to have random mad moments with. I looked down at my lap. The meeting was just about dates for recording the upcoming album and stuff like that. At the end CC stood up.
“Before we all rush off to whatever,” he started, “Me and Gemma have an announcement to make. We’re having a baby.” Andy was the only one that didn’t look shocked.
“Seriously?” Jake said, Gemma and CC nodded.
“Yeah she’s three months pregnant,” said CC, Gemma stood up and pulled her shirt tight, There was a small bump.
"Congrats dude!” said Jake, and Jinxx, they both hugged Gemma and shook CC’s hand. They then discussed things with John and Blasko. We all hung out for a while, before I plucked enough courage to ask Ashley about the things I’d found earlier.
"So hey I've been meaning to ask, what's up with the glitter that I've been finding on your clothes?" I asked Ashley a bit loudly. The room went silent.
"What are you talking about? I don't have glitter on my clothes?" He said. The look on his face pretty much had guilt written all over it.
. "Yeah you do." I responded, "glitter and a few sequins."
"I was doing arts and crafts?" He shrugged.
"Yeah sure.. More like admiring the art of a stripper." I said. "I also found a flyer in one of your pockets."
"Hey those ladies are talented." He confessed. I glared at him.
“Oi!” said Gemma, “Excuse me but is this really the place to talk about how Ashley needs to go to others to get off? Or should we not bring that up either?” She sounded really spiteful. I glared at Gemma, as did Ashley, CC just looked worried.
“Ok,” said John, “What’s going on between you four? I’ve seen nothing but hostility between you all day.”
“Ask Isis,” said Gemma, pushing me into the spotlight of the room, everyones eyes were on me, well apart from those who knew about it. “
"It’s nothing,” said Ashley, “Just a glitch.”
"In any case,” continued Blasko, “There’s a fan meet up organised for a few days time, I want you two, or four, whatever, to go. It’s in New York, and you’ll have plenty of time to get back on track and actually work together again, we can’t have this can’t affect the band. So sort your personal problems, outside of work!” He was not happy. John suggested that the band take a picture with Bob Rock as a teaser for the fans, Ashley and CC were already moving as far away from each other as possible, neither of them looked too happy about our situation, hopefully the meetup would help so it wouldn’t affect the new album.
