The Next Day…
Flora was in the park on another date with Hunter. Since they had such success last time with their songs. The two of them decided to help each other with their songs for tonight as well.
"What makes a song good for dancing?" Flora asked.
"It needs an upbeat feel to it."
"That doesn't sound to hard."
"Oh on the contrary. Writing songs for clubs is actually really hard."
"How so?"
"You see when writing a song for a club there needs to be a certain feel to it. The song needs to send a feeling to the listeners making them want to dance. It can't be just techno music, it needs a certain edge to it."
"Oh wow. Now that you told me all this, I am extremely nervous."
Hunter laughed at the panicked look on Flora's face. "Don't worry. I am sure you will do fine."
"You think?"
"Sure. All you need is to find the right theme. Once you do that, then the song will come. So any ideas?"
"No not really."
"Okay, well let me think…" Hunter tapped his chin, thinking for some time. "I know this might not be the best idea, but why not write about your ex."
Flora winced when she heard him say ex. She wasn't use to calling Helia that just yet. "I'm not so sure. I mean I have written a lot of songs about us for the contest already."
"True, but they all have been amazing songs. I have an idea. Most of the songs that you have written have been about you moving on and saying goodbye. Why not write about something else about it?"
"I guess."
"When you see him, how do you feel?"
Flora thought about his question for a moment. When she looked at Helia millions of feelings ran through her head. "Well a lot of feelings come, but actually the feeling I feel the most is frustration."
"Okay good, why do you feel frustrated?"
"Well the signals he sends me are all over the place. He breaks up with me then the next day tells the girls that he loves me. I see him with another girl and then he sends me flowers. I don't know what he is playing at."
"It is all very interesting. And you say he won't tell you why he broke it up?"
"No, not at all."
"Well I believe you have the theme for your next song."
"Really what's that?"
"His mixed messages."
"Oh I see."
"But I'm not totally sure I like that title. It needs something a little more catchy." Hunter tried to think of a title but couldn't.
"I'm sure I can come up with a better title late. Now it is time to think of your song."
"Okay that sounds good."
"So do you have any ideas?" Flora asked.
"No not really. I am use to writing more alternative based songs. Not dance songs."
"Well do you want to write about love or something else?"
"Love is always a good theme."
"Okay well let me think." Flora pondered about different ideas for a while. "Oh I have a great idea!"
"Well don't just sit there, tell me." Hunter laughed at how excited Flora was.
"Why don't you write a song about not falling in love, but a song about loving the moment you are in when you are dancing."
"What do you mean?"
"A song about having fun dancing in the club. Maybe something about finding a girl and dancing with her."
"You know that is actually not a band idea."
Flora had a huge grin on her face. The two of them spent the rest of the day talking about their hopes and dreams and getting to know each other some more.
At the Boys' Apartment…
Helia was sitting on the couch writing in his notepad, enjoying the peace and quiet.
The quiet was soon broken when Timmy, Brandon, and Sky walked in.
"Hey Helia what are you doing here?" Timmy asked.
"What are you talking about? I live here."
"He meant why are you not with Jaclyn right now." Sky explained.
"She had something to do today. I won't be seeing her until tomorrow."
"Do you know what?"
"She said she was going on her dad's business trip with him."
"I wonder what that business is?" Brandon asked.
"Me too." Sky put in.
"Well I'm sure I will find out eventually. Right now I am happy to have some free time. By the way where are Riven and Nabu?"
"They went on a double date with Layla and Musa."
Helia sighed, if things were how they were suppose to be, then right now he would be out with Flora on their own date.
Timmy saw Helia was upset so he tried to distract him. "Now Helia, I know you have a lot on your mind, but have you come up with a song for tonight?"
"Actually, that was what I was trying to do when you guys walked in. But I am having an issue coming up with a good idea for the song. A song that is good for dancing is not as easy as you might think."
"Maybe we can help. We haven't really contributed to writing the songs yet."
"Thanks Brandon. So any ideas?" All the guys were concentrating hard at coming with an idea.
"I got it!" Everyone looked at Sky. "How about a song about how good a girl makes you feel?"
"What do you mean, how a girl makes us feel?" Timmy asked.
"Well when I am with Bloom, I feel like I am on top of the world and nothing can hurt me. There is no limit to my happiness."
"I actually think that was more cheesy then Helia's usual romantic sayings." Brandon and the rest of the guys laughed at Sky blushing.
"Putting jokes aside, I like the idea." But I think it needs a better idea then no limit to my happiness." Helia thought about a better title.
"I know!" Helia looked at Brandon. "In honor of our man Sky here coming up with the theme, why don't you name it after him?" Helia looked at him confused. "Call it The Sky's the Limit."
Helia laughed. "That is a great title Brandon. What do you think Sky?"
Sky was still blushing. "Yeah that works."
"Awesome. Well now that I have the title and theme, it is time to write."
Sorry this chapter is so short; the next one will be longer.
