Today was the day, we went and got signed. Today was our breaking point, one small slip up and all of this could be over. Well, not really, but we had to impress the manager who was interested. He had seen us perform once before when we first met him, but today we did all the contracting and stuff, which I had no intention of getting into unless my signature was needed. I'm not good with paperwork, we'll just leave it at that.
I was forced to sit in the back between Tanner and Mason. While Brielle sat on the other side of Tanner and Brit sat in the front. I was always sat between the two guys, sure I didn't mind it much, but it got boring sitting in the same spot every time I was in a car or plane or anything that moved really.
"Why do I always have to sit in between the guys?" I complained, leaning against Tanner, who was just about as skinny and bony as I was. "You are a terrible pillow my friend."
Tanner just smiled a little and shook his head, looking out the window of the car.
"Because you're most boyish out of the girls." Brit smirked from the driver's seat.
"That's true; I do hate the color pink." I said, nodding.
"And wearing dresses or skirts." Tanner added.
"It feels awkward!" I said, throwing my hands in the air.
"Whatever, little miss seven year-old boy." Brit chuckled, pulling into the parking lot of the Studio. There were large, gold, letter that spelled out Horizon Records on the top of the building. I quickly got out of the car and ran up to the studio. The outside looked pretty boring, but the inside was extravagant and filled with marble and plants.
*At the recording studio*
We walked in and James greeted us.
"Welcome to Horizon Records." He said.
I looked around, wide eyed and not saying anything. My eyes shot from one thing to another. It looked like Brit's house mixed with a five-star hotel. There were marble counters where receptionists sat and a Zen looking fountain to her right with Koi fish in it. The Koi fish were swimming around in lazy circles, if I were a Koi fish I would probably do that too. When I was little I wished I was a fish. Is that normal? I bagan recalling things that had to do with fish from my childhood and asking myself questions about them.
"Liv." Tanner said, snapping in front of my face and kind of bringing me back to reality, but part of my brain was still focusing on the fish.
"Yeah?" I asked, still in a daze.
Tanner sighed and pulled me by the arm down the hall, following the rest of our band and James.
"This is where you guys will be recording your EP." James said, gesturing to the recording booth that had a large 4 above the door.
"I've always liked the number 4." I said, looking up at it and kind of spacing out.
"Is she high?" James asked, looking at me with a concerned expression.
"No, she just needs this." Tanner said, slapping me across the face, quite hard I must say.
"Ow!" I said, coming out of my hazed state. "Thanks."
"No problem." Tanner smiled, in a cheery, I love slapping you, way.
I rubbed my cheek, which I was sure had a red mark on it now.
"Would you guys like to go see some of the bands you'll be touring with?" James asked, gesturing for us to follow him down the hall.
"Sure!" Brielle grinned, speaking up.
"Awesome." James led us to a booth that had a large 7 above it. "This is where Black Veil Brides are recording, but I'm pretty sure they're done."
We walked in and saw guys from a couple other bands were in the studio with BVB.
"Hey, who are they?" Danny Worsnop, from Asking Alexandria, asked looking at all of us.
"This is the recently signed Blank 3x." James smiled.
"Awesome." Justin Hills, from Sleeping with Sirens, said.
"Oh, hey Justin." I said, waving a little. I had met Justin when Kellin first met him. Kellin and I had done theatre and hung out together in high school before I met my band. I lost contact with him after he graduated two years before me, so touring with him was gonna be great catch up time.
"Hey Liv." Justin smiled, getting up and hugging me. He had cut his hair since the last time I saw him, but he was still the same old Justin, which made me smile.
"So you two know each other?" James asked.
"Yeah, she went to high school with Kellin." Justin said, nodding and leaning against the wall.
"Hey Liv, what happened to your face?" Andy asked, studying my bright red cheek.
"Tanner slapped me back to normal." I said, smiling and nodding like a child.
Justin and my band laughed while everyone else just looked at me like I was crazy.
"It's hard to explain." I said with a shrug.
"She gets all spacey and someone eventually has to slap her to get her back." Brit explained.
"Tanner just decided to slap me a little harder than usual." I said, glaring at him.
Tanner shrugged, a smug grin spread on his face.
I went up in pointe position, which was very easy in Vans, and smacked him upside the head.
"How do you do that?" Ronnie, from Falling in Reverse asked.
"I was a dancer for a while." I laughed, pirouetting.
"And a cheerleader." Tanner said, smiling slyly.
"Those days are over and behind me!" I squeaked and ran behind Justin.
"Wow." Ashley said.
"Her split's farther than mine." Justin laughed.
I nodded, poking up head up behind Justin's shoulder and smiling a little.
"So you sing, act, and dance." Jake said. "What don't you do?"
"Math." I said, shaking my head. "I almost failed that class."
"It's true." Brit laughed.
"Shut up, not everyone is a mathematic genius now are they?" I snapped. "The only reason I almost failed was because I forget everything and never turned my work in. Plus, I was perfectly fine in everything else and my vocabulary grows by the minute."
"Whatever, Miss Artsy." Brit said.
"Fine, Miss Math Book." I said.
We looked away from each other and pouted for about 30 seconds then started laughing.
"You can't be serious for more than a minute can you?" Ashley asked.
"Psh! My record's a minute and a half!" I said, slapping my chest in mock horror.
Everyone laughed and I soon got distracted again. There were a lot of different things in this room and all of them were very distracting to me.
"Has anyone else noticed Mason is just standing a corner?" I asked, looking over at him.
"I forgot he was here." Tanner laughed.
"Thanks, Tanner." Mason said sarcastically.
"He spoke!" I grinned, jumping up and down and becoming my hyper active self again.
"Is she okay?" Gerard asked, coming out of nowhere.
"What the hell? I didn't even know you were here." Danny laughed, turning to Gerard.
"I've been here the whole time." Gerard said, his shoulders hunching over slightly, just like Mason's.
"Holy shit, he's just like Mason!" I said, continuing to jump up and down.
"He kind of is." Brit said, studying the two.
"Weird." Tanner said.
Brielle and I stared at them and thought for a second, and then started laughing.
"Are you sure they're not high?" James asked, standing in the doorway, about to leave.
"Yeah, they're just naturally like that." Tanner said with a shrug.
"Should we be worried at all?" James asked, watching us roll on the floor laughing for no reason.
"Nah, they'll calm down at some point and get all spacey again." Brit said nonchalantly.
James nodded and soon disappeared leaving all of us to do whatever it is we do.
