Meeting Ethan Marks
Ashley's POV
So yeah, all 8 of us are meeting with Ethan today. We have to decide as a house what we will do, so its only fair that everyone be present. After hours of deliberation and going through song lyrics and music we decided that we would just use "White lines & Red Lights" for our demo, and have been practicing whenever we get the chance. Last night we finally layed the track and sent it to Ethan. Coop and Arden have been mushy non-stop while being at home together. I don't know how many more times I can hear, "You're sexy when you play." without actually vomiting. But, Spence has been all over me lately considering most of the songs are about her. Who knew, writing songs pretty much all love songs for your girlfriend is a supposed turn on.
We all pile into our cars and drive to Marks Studios. Spence and I in the front with Arden and Alex in the back, no doubt making out or doing something of the sort. I swear Alex's level of maturity around Arden drops, damn lovesick teenagers. Lucy and Kyla follow who both are still being really awkward around each other ever since Alex's comment at the living room meeting. I still have to talk about that with her, she's been acting a little off with Lucy and we can't have that in the band.
Wiley and Bridget follow as well. I'm still surprised that Bridget can say all the things she does without ticking off Alex. I wonder if those two ever had a thing…I mean they did meet in high school, they shared the whole sporty athlete thing, and they were best friends, also it was after she and Wiley broke up.
We arrive at the studio and we walk into the boardroom. Each sitting next to our girlfriends…which leaves Luce and Ky sitting next to each other. Ethan enters in his business suit while his hair combed back.
"Hello, Ladies. Its going to be hard distinguishing the band from everyone else so could the band please sit together and the girlfriends and family can sit next to them." We rearrange ourselves so its me closest to Ethan, then Alex, then Arden, then Lucy, and then Wiley. With Bridget, Spencer and Kyla following. We all introduce ourselves. "Ah, that's better. So I heard your demo, and its really good. And the name definitely has a story behind it from what I've heard which will give the fans some interest in your back story. All that's left to do is decide on songs for the first album, take about a month to lay the tracks and then market you guys." Alex figdets nervously, knowing that the back story is going to involve our friendship and her kissing of the three Davies, but Arden takes her hand in hers and gently rubs her thumb over it, calming her. Alex give her a smile.
"So we've got to sort of give you each a personality that we can market with. Of course we've got the romance in the band, Alex and Arden…they'll probably give you some name like Ardex or Alden," Alex and Arden giggle slightly, "Then we've got our frontwoman Ashley Davies, strong but sensitive rocker whose girlfriend has tamed her previous bad girl reputation, " I smile at Spencer and give her a wink. "Then we've got "Wiley" whose got a name like Cher or Flea," Everyone laughs, even Wiley, "Plus there'll be interest on how you got the name, but anyways Wiley the go with the flow, laid back drummer with the insanely supermodel hot soccer playing girlfriend." Wiley raises a brow challengingly at Ethan, and Bridget blushes. "Sorry, sorry, overstepped a boundary there. And lastly we have Lucy…the bad girl, mysterious, loner with intense eyes that all the girls will chase after." Lucy's eyebrows shoot up and she glances at Kyla who has her brows furrowed. Lucy and Ky aren't together…so the marketing's fair…its just when they decide to get over their fears…there's going to be trouble. "So if its ok with everyone, we'll draw up a contract and have the band sign it." He exits leaving all of us to discuss the proposal.
"Ard and I are cool with it. Ardex isn't so bad." Alex shrugs.
"Yeah, Bridge and I are good." Wiley chirps.
"I'm cool with it. It's not like I have to pretend to be something I'm not or anything." That would be Lucy. The apparent mysterious ladies woman.
Kyla shrugs and I speak up, "And Spence and I are good too, so we'll just see what the contract entails and we'll be good." I hope.
