A Week Later…

D- Sues Recording Studios: Studio A:

"I can't believe that we're going to start recording our first ever album in a week!" Anna- Rita exclaimed.

"I know!" Marta agreed.

"I wonder who's gonna producer it!"

"… Will it be somebody famous? Somebody hot?" Marta sealed. Leave it to Marta to bring up the "hot factor".

"Girls", James and Rocky rolled their eyes.

"We can hear you, you know!" Marta shouted back at the boys.

"Right," Rocky said back.

"I'm sooo going to get you!" Marta said running over to her half- brother and talking him around the shoulders. But, Rocky was much stronger than Marta's attack, and managed to stand his ground with- out any problems. Marta's cell phone then fell out of her pocket.

Rocky in return picked up Marta's cell phone and held it up high in the air, far out of her reach.

"Give it to me!" Marta demanded jumping up and down and up and down trying to reach her cell phone.

"Excuse me!" Liam said walking into the studio. But, this is a work area, where some people actually want to work!"

"Yeah, some people!" Anna- Rita snickered.

"What?"

"Nothing," Anna- Rita said putting her head down, so that Liam did not see her trying not to laugh.

"Right then," Liam replied, just as Darius past him.

"Darius. May I speak to you for a moment?" Liam asked the man.

"Yeah, sure," Darius replied.

Liam led Darius to a corner, and began to speak to him.

"So, who is going to produce the amateurs album?" Liam asked Darius.

"I was thinking about asking Kwest…." Darius told him.

"Kwest?" Liam asked him curiously.

"He's one of best; the best since Tom left"

"But, seriously; Kwest is married to Sadie. Sadie is Jude's sister, making him Tommy's brother- in- law; aren't you a little worried?"

"Worried? What I'm worried about is the quality of the music!" Darius fumed.

"Okay then,"

Back at Studio A:

Anna- Rita was watching Darius and Liam with intent…

"Kwest?" Anna- Rita asked to herself.

"What hun?" Marta asked, hearing her best- friend murmur something to herself.

"Kwest. They're talking about a Kwest…" Anna- Rita stated, not really thinking much into the words that she just said.

"You shouldn't use you talent for evil, Ari," Marta told Anna- Rita.

"I'm not using it for evil!" Anna- Rita denied. "I'm using it, because of a bunch of lies that my family, and probably your family told us,"

"How can you say that our families lie to us?"

"I mean first I see my Aunt Sadie here, then Liam recognizes our fams, and then Darius Mills, the owner of D- Sues, talks to my Dad like her knows him! Is that "just a coincidence?" Anna- Rita shouted.

"I don't know; it doesn't seem like the type of thing that our families would not tell us about…"

"Okay, I get your point!" Anna- Rita shouted.

"No need to blow out my ear- drums!" Marta shouted back.

"Now you know how I feel everyday!"

"Excuse me!" Liam interrupted.

Yes!" Anna- Rita and Marta both responded very angrily.

"Darius and I talked; we will have the answer on your album with- in three days."

"Okay," the band all said in unison as they exited the studio, and made their way outside of D- Sues.

Outside G- Sues:

The band was all now standing outside of D- Sues, and talking about their "problem".

"Okay, Mr. Mills said something about a Kwest… Marta, what's the first thing you think about when you hear the name 'Kwest'?" Anna- Rita asked, taking leadership.

"Sadie?" Marta asked.

"Yes!" Anna- Rita agreed. "Now, I know that my Aunt Sadie doesn't store anything hidden- away. Everything is organized, probably in a locker somewhere… we have an attic…"

"Didn't we just help your parents clean out you attic like two months ago?" James asked.

"That's what I was thinking…" Anna- Rita told her band mates, but first and for- most, her friends.

"My Mom has an attic…" Rocky said, speaking for the first time in that conversation.

"And she never gets rid of stuff, right?" Anna- Rita questioned Rocky.

"If I know Ms. Sewer, she'll everything from like the Stone Age to now somewhere in her house…"

"Oh my gosh, James! You are brilliant!" Anna- Rita shouted giving Marta's brother an enormous, almost too- friendly of a hug… "Do you guys think that we should do it?"

"Totally!" Marta exclaimed.

"Cool," James replied.

"Sounds good," Rocky agreed.

"So… when can we go?" Anna- Rita asked.

"This evening sounds good," James suggested.

"Works for me," Anna- Rita agreed. But, there was no answer to the James and Anna- Rita. "So…" Anna- Rita trailed off, "Do you two want to go?"

"Um… geese, thanks for the invite Ari, but I sorta, kinda have plans for this evening…" Marta said sympathetically.

"I have… socc… to study for finals!" Rocky grinned.

"Right," Anna- Rita said, not really believing what Rocky. If there was anything she knew about Rocky, was that he couldn't lie at all. He was a lot like Jamie in that way.

"That's alright…" Anna- Rita said rather glumly. "We can wait, I guess…"

"No!" James objected. "If it's okay with Marta and Rocky, Ari and I can go…"

"I don't want to go with out you two though…" Anna- Rita tried to object.

"Go," Marta urged me, giving me a glare as if to say, "You know you want to!…" when Rocky and James weren't looking.

"I'll let you in; my Mom's going out for the evening; I'll just tell her that your coming over to work on a song or something," Rocky told us.

James and Anna- Rita thought about their answer for a moment…

"Sure," Anna- Rita agreed.

"Come by around… six," Rocky told the two.

"Cool, see you then!" James said.
