Cursed by love
Beginnings
Yesterday we flew to LA. It is such a big city. We arrived at night. The city seemed to me as the sky full of stars before we landed. It was an awesome moment I will remember for rest of my life.
I was lying asleep in warm bed which was more expensive that my leftover of my savings covering with soft white duvet. Today I had to start working on my skills in music. I was tired. Long night. I couldn´t sleep after a small fight with Tommy last night about staying, but we made it up, and we will stay. Then I called home and parents allowed me another week.
“Morning!” Katie took away my lovely duvet from me. She shook my body. I grabbed a pillow and covered my face with it. “Come on lazy girl! Don´t you want to be late the first day of work or do you?” I was trying turn my body, and I fell to the ground. She laughed.
“Okay! I´m awake.” The sun was shining, and it attacked my eyes. “What´s the time?”
“About ten?” I stood up and picked duvet. Shit! Shit! Shit! I ran to the bathroom with this word. I´ve got like twenty minutes till the meeting will start. I dressed. (http://www.polyvore.com/get_look_high-waisted_jeans/set?id=171484007 ) In that while I didn´t care about make-up, so I looked like a monster, maybe a little. I drank orange juice, and we ran out of the apartment. Katie locked the door. The car was waiting for us. We both got on.
“Hey, How are you?” asked Katie, a driver. She knew him. The driver was the young, handsome guy. I don´t know him, but his face I´ve seen before. The man from office! Of course. I remember him. It surprised me that Katie was flirting with him. It seemed to me that she has a crush on him. Thank God! I was glad for her, but that silly sweet talks I couldn´t listen all the driving, so I put my earphones and turned music on (Fall Out Boy – Light em up).
*****
About fifteen minutes we were on a place. Yeah, We came in time! I looked at me while I was walking through a building. It was great.
“Hallo girls!” Said Andy when he noticed us. “Katie, the handouts are on the desk. Can you do it within an hour?“
“I will try! So, I think I can start...“ she left us pulling Alex´s arm. I was a little bit nervous because I didn´t know what I´m going to do. This Alex guy (Andy calls him that) was a manager assistant. I was standing next to the door. Everyone was doing something excluding me. Then I saw Juliet smoking on the balcony.
“Hey Wildy, are you ready?” she asked me with a big smile. She threw out a cigarette, and we hugged.
“I´m kinda nervous, you know…” I said, and my look fell onto the ground. We heard Andy´s shout. “Juliet and Laurie, please come here!” We walked inside.
“Today, we´re gonna do your voice test.” It sounds very creepy. “Okay, we can start!”
*****
We (Andy, Juliet and I) walked into the small room with microphones and piano. And Acoustic guitar, of course. We all sat down.
“Choose one song which you´ll sing. Some that we all know, please…” said Juliet.
I gave them my sight full of worries… All songs that I could sing the best they won´t understand and that they will are the ones they´ve written. Few minutes of silence.
“Maybe I can try Lost it all if you agree.” They both smiled and nodded. Andy asked that if I want to sing with the piano. I agreed, but when he was walking to it, I sat at it. I laid my thin fingers on black keys, and I began. I was nervous because I sang and played in front of its songwriter and singer. But I listened to my voice and after a while, I didn´t notice them. I closed my eyes and the lyrics I was singing told story that was running in my mind like a movie. Soon the song ended.
“WoW! It was cool, Wildy! Have a deep and loud voice. I think It´ll work.” Said Juliet. Andy was quietly. He stared at me. And I felt it was something wrong.
“I´ve got an idea. Let´s try Wild Child together. Acoustic version. What do you say?” I was excited about this Juliet´s idea. She grabbed the guitar and played the intro.
“You´ll first!” I told her, and she smiled. Andy was like stone. Any feeling. That made me nervous. Juliet sang the first verse. “Now together!” I sang second voice, and she sang a melody. Chorus was on Juliet. Then my time has arrived. “Take cheap shots…” I sang with many emotions. My hands were doing what they wanted, and index finger pointed at my few times. It was great fun.
*****
We ended up about two hours full of singing later. My vocal cords hurt. And I was a little bit tired.
„You are pretty high!“ Juliet was commending me all the time. I always said thank you!
„We must celebrate it! I call my friends...“ Juliet was texting. „You´re sweet Juliet, but I rather have a small party. Like us, Katie, Tommy, Andy´s band and that blue-eyed guy from Office...“ Juliet looked at me with a big smile. “So you into Alex, aren´t you?”
“Juliet, you know I´m already taken! And these emo guys don´t get me anyways.” She was laughing. Then she turned on Andy.
„Andy, what do you think about it?“ He was with us only physically. His mind was flying somewhere. About three minutes later he finally said something. „What? About Laurie´s type of guy?" We giggled. "Party, honey?"
" Only a small party! Laurie has to work hard on herself! We want to release her first record at the end of this year. So, she mustn´t exhaust herself! “ Both of us took a look at him. Is he going insane? Does he mean it?
„We?“ I asked shocked. „Yes, we will! I´ve written one song, and you´ll sing it with me if you want. And something with Juliet as well! You two are a great team together.“
WoW! I´ll be singing my song and also Andy´s. Am I dreaming?
In the car, during our way back to home was silent. Only I with Juliet were talking quietly about the party. Juliet was searching in her contacts. She wanted to invite a few people that I should know. And I was all in. The idea of meeting people from this sphere of the world was critical for someone who starts play music, and it´s entirely unknown. The black Cadillac stopped. We got off, but Andy stayed in the car.
„Do you come?“ said his girlfriend with a loving voice.
„Later! I have to do something in the office, but I´ll be there for your little party... “ And this cool black car disappeared in the dark streets of LA.
