"Okay, so," I said to Niall over the phone. We had just finished finalizing most of the details for the music video. Right now, we were trying to think up lyrics for the song "The first verse goes like this:
Been a lot of places.
I've been all around the world.
Seen a lot of faces.
Never knowing where I was.
On the horizon.
Mmm, well, I know, I know, I know, I know the sun will be rising
Back home.
Living out of cases,
Packing up and taking off.
Made a lot of changes
But not forgetting who I was.
On the horizon.
Ooh, well, I know, I know, I know, I know the moon will be rising
Back home."
"Woah," Niall said, his voice filled with awe "When did you learn to write pop songs?" I laughed lightly, brushing off the compliment.
"I wanted to try something other than country. So, you'll write the chorus and I will write the others. Got to go, I still need to call Zayn's boo about her band's songs. Bye!"
"Bye, and thanks again," Niall said, before hanging up. Smiling lightly, I quickly dialled Perrie's number, and waited for her to pick up. Before it rang for the second time, Perrie's voice came through.
"Bella?"
"No, it's Donald Trump, I'm calling to ask if you wanna fuck," I joked "Of course it's me, you goof, who else?"
"Oh, I don't know, the guy that I'm cheating on Zayn with?" Perrie teased back, making me burst out laughing.
"Hardy har har," I replied, rolling my eyes "Anyways, the songs we finished writing for collaboration tour? Wanna hear the finished result of 'Meant to be' and 'Good Enough'?"
"It's finished?" Perrie shrieked, making me wince. 'Meant to be' was the song I had written myself for my collaboration album with Little Mix. Like most of my songs, it was about Edward. God, even thinking his name hurt.
People like us were meant to be free
People like us were meant to be strong
People like us were meant to be together
People like us were meant to be forever
But obviously not us
Cause we were different
And not in a good way
But you didn't have to leave
We would've worked things out (would've worked things out)
Could've worked things out (could've worked things out)
Should've tracked you right down (should've tracked you right down)
Could've tracked you right down (could've tracked you right down)
But I didn't
Cause I was saving myself from another heartbreak
Another rejection
Oh, oh, oh woah
So are your distractions now
Cause that's what you told me
Remember?
And you said
'People like us; we don't forget as easily
'But I can find a new distraction for me
'People like you; your memories' like a sieve
'Years will pass by and you'll forget all about me'
People like us were meant to be free
People like us were meant to be strong
People like us were meant to be together
People like us were meant to be forever
But we were different
But look at us now
Me laying, crying on the forest floor
You, in LA, or wherever the hell with your family
So now, I'm the future you left in the past
And now, I'm the girl you deemed not good enough
But I tried, I tried, I tried, I tried
To measure up
To your level of perfection
People like us were meant to be free
People like us were meant to be strong
People like us were meant to be together
People like us were meant to be forever
Woah
People like us were meant to be beautiful (People like us were meant to be free)
People like us were meant to be unbreakable (People like us were meant to be strong)
People like us were mean to be unshakable (People like us were meant to be together)
People like us were meant to be untouchable (People like us were meant to be forever)
But look, look, look
Look at us now, now, now, now
'Meant to be's'
Turned to be
'Could've been's'"
After I finished singing the song, I started thinking about him, how we could've been everything.
"Bella?" Perrie's voice snapped me out of my reverie. "That song was great! It probably describes a heartbreak of the person I knew some time ago. Anyway, what about 'Good Enough'?"
A/N: So, I just want to thank those people with very, very high tolerance level who are still reading this story, so yeah, THANK YOU!
