15th August, 2015.

Kingston, Jamaica.

"Hun, do you know where I left my sunglasses?"

Emily smiled, hugging Naomi's waist and kissing her shoulder so lazily. They were staying in a luxurious hotel in Kingston (the most important city in Jamaica) and they were so glad about it because they were like holidays for them. When the redhead said that they had an empty week, Naomi started to search some hotels in the farthest countries and places that came into her mind. Jamaica, Hawaii, New Zealand… they wanted to be as far as possible from the pressure of London.

Also they had had a conference press last Sunday and they confirmed that they were going to record a new album. Every thing was so fast and Emily was just happy to be with her girl, so far away . "I think you left them in the drawer."

Naomi nodded because she remembered it and caressed Emily's cheek with her thumb. "I really couldn't live without you."

And the petite girl knew that it was true.

In fact, none of them could live without each other anymore.

[...]

The same time in London.

Katie left the keys inside a drawer of the bureau they had on the living room and Effy appeared with a cup of wine on her hands. The older twin gulped trying not to face her. Gosh, Effy was sexy even with her messy hair and her old pyjamas.

Effy sighed, sitting on the couch and staring at her with curiosity. Where was her 'moody' friend? The one she liked? Katie was nowhere to be seen and that was starting to bother her.

"Having a walk?" The brunette asked, trying to enlight the mood.

Katie rolled her eyes. That poor attempt to make some conversation didn't suit Effy, no... "Of course, Eff. As if I can make two steps without havin-"

"You could have said no." Said Effy, starting to feel the anger inside her body. "This is not my fucking fault so don't piss me off."

Effy said that because they had had paparazzi glued to their door every day and it was burdening them. Also, that Brazilian model had talked about Katie on TV and they didn't like it a bit. (Specially the brunette. She didn't like to say it, but she couldn't be fine if her girls weren't.)

Katie sighed. She was sick of that, she was totally fed up. "I'll have a fucking shower."

Effy rolled her eyes while she mumbled a 'suit yourself'. She was so tired about that too and she just wanted the things to get normal, but their life couldn't be normal at all, fuck's sake!

The brunette stopped overthinking when she heard the enormous band of the door, so she stood up and went to see what had happened, really worried about Katie.

When she opened Katie's door she definitely didn't expect to find Katie there, sobbing without control on her bed. "Katie..." The little girl felt Effy's arms circling her waist and she started crying without control, burying her face on the brunette's chest. "Shhhht, I'm 'ere babes. It's OK." Murmured Effy while she caressed Katie's hair.

During so many minutes, Effy rocked Katie tenderly in her arms until she was calmed down.

"Don't let me fall, please." Murmured Katie and Effy wiped her tears with her thumb, lovingly.

Of course she wasn't going to let her fall. She couldn't.

The older girl cuddled her until Katie was calmed down and Katie just sighed, feeling the comfort in the brunette's arms. "I'm so sorry."

Why was Effy sorry? Because they couldn't stop arguing and she didn't feel good when she did that. Katie and her were meant to be a rock to each other and the petite was falling down, with all that pressure. "Why?" Katie furrowed her brow, so surprised.

"I'm a selfish twat... I've been so busy with my own shit and-"

Katie put a finger on her lips and Effy stared at her, opening her eyes. "If someone has to apologize here, it's me. Fuck's sake, we have dozens and dozens of paparazzi outside."

"Have you answered any of their questions?" Asked Effy, grabbing Katie's hands.

"Of course not, why I sh-"

Effy smiled. "Because Hugh is the biggest arsehole in the whole mother Earth and I thought it would be fair to... you know. To tell them that."

Katie couldn't help but laugh at that comment. Her Effy, (her carefree young girl with that 'I don't give a fuck about anything more than Katie, Emily and Naomi' attitude and that sexy smirk) was there and she was feeling that she didn't want that moment to end at all.

"I'm serious, he's so fucking idiot... if I would have been him, I wouldn't let you go like ever."

Katie opened her eyes, feeling the fire on her cheeks.

OH SAINT SHIT, what a bomb. Straight to her heart.

'She's being kind because she's your friend. Don't overreact.'

Her heart was beating so fast that it was starting to scare her. It was like a chemical reaction inside her chest that didn't let her breath properly, and Effy stared at her, because Katie's body was so tense she could feel the petite's muscles. "Are you OK, Katie?"

She nodded because she didn't have voice and when Effy kissed her forehead lovingly, she closed her eyes. Fucking Jesus Christ riding a bike and escorted by Judas...

Effy stood up and left the bedroom some minutes after that intimate moment.

Katie just closed her eyes and took a long breath. She couldn't have a shower, she couldn't do anything more than stay there with her eyes truly closed.

The warmth inside her heart didn't let her sleep for a fucking minute.

She was going to spend a long long night.

[...]

Emily sat on the edge of the beach, leaving the three bottles of beer stuck in the sand. The sun was falling down and Naomi was playing an ukulele.

By her side Connor, a Jamaican guy who played the drums very well and also was so funny, was smoking a spliff. He was the hotel'a receptionist but he got along so well with the girls and he was showing them the best places of Kingston.

That beach was one of the most beautiful places they had ever seen.

Emily started to sing the first song that came into her head, Hotel California by The Eagles, and the boy laughed when he listened her raspy but awesome voice. "Damn girl, you sing really well, huh? I love this song and you're nailin' it."

"Let's cover it." Said Naomi, with a wide smile on her face.

The boy grabbed a bottle of beer and taking a long sip, he smiled. "I'm definitely in."

September.

Double-J Studios. London.

"Lara, can you spread and mess that make-up, please? As if she's been crying. What do you think?" JJ said.

Effy nodded and sat on that couch, and the make-up artist (the girl named Lara) began her work with the older girl while Emily, Naomi and Katie were reading their 'acting plot'.

They were recording their new album in November and before all that work (because to record a new album meant working tirelessly for weeks) they decided to record one of the covers that they had played on their last tour: 'Reptilia' by The Strokes.

They needed to have a videoclip for it and a video meant new work for JJ, who was a very talented boy.

They became friends so easily, with that JJ. His working method guaranteed success: he just suggested things that would work in his videos (and sometimes his ideas were crazy, really crazy) and they agreed or disagreed. The girls had decided they would record in black and white again and Effy had come up with the amazing idea that they could push their limits: she was going to cry (the brunette never ever cried in public), Katie was going to be that stronger girl that she was before all his ex-boyfriend shit and Naomi and Emily would represent the pressure they were living.

The video started with Effy sitting on a couch and staring nowhere. She seemed drugged and it was quite impressive because with the make-up on her face, she looked so stunning on the camera.

Almost as a broken doll.

The next scene showed Katie and Emily arguing out loud and after that Katie started to look herself in a mirror, smiling and nodding as if she was the girl she wanted to be, and finally, one of the last scenes was Naomi running through the street because she was thinking that someone was following her and she felt anxious.

When the song was over, it appeared a black screen with the words: 'We are just normal people. Let us be normal people.' It was a message from them to their fans, because they loved them (really loved them. They wouldn't be where they were if they didn't support them and they were so grateful) but sometimes it was too much when they stalked them, when they started following them wherever...

"Emily, can I talk to you a second?" Said JJ while she was staring at Effy.

She nodded, of course and she followed him to a little office. "What?"

"There's another scene. It's just experimental and you can say 'no' if you feel that it is too much." Said the guy and she raised an eyebrow. "It's after your argument with your sister. You are crying so hard and Naomi arrives after her 'sick' running. She finds you crying and protects you."

Emily nodded. "I don't think the scene is 'so experimental'."

"You end shagging against a wall." The little redhead opened her eyes, so surprised and JJ sighed. "It's just an idea, I mean... it will bring some controversy and it's interesting, now, two months until the release of the album."

"Controversy?" She asked. She didn't know if he was talking about the fact that she and Naomi were together or he just wanted to make some noise.

"Everybody is talking about these things nowadays, Emily. I am aware of the group of fans that you and Naomi have, as I am aware that Katie's character needs a rush after all the shit of the Brazilian model."

Emily raised an eyebrow. "What 'bout Effy?"

"She sells a lot. Everything she does is because she wants to, so I thought that if we show her crying the people will see that she's just a person. It's... interesting because the people use to love her or to hate her, she's controversial by her own. We're going to try to make a change there."

Emily nodded because she understood his ideas. "Can I... Can I have a talk with them?"

"Of course you can, Emily." He said with a smile in his face.

She opened the door and went outside, Katie was recording one of her scenes where she showed that she was a strong girl. Naomi stared at her girlfriend and Emily just smiled.

It seemed that they were going to make some noise.

[...]

"So... what do you think?"

Emily bit her lip and the other three girls stared at her so surprised. Wow, it was huge...

Effy was the first to say something about the video issue. "I think it is an awesome idea. We are full of clichés and this will be a breaking point."

"I agree." Said Katie with a nod. "If you think about it, the people will go crazy about it."

They stared at Naomi who was tipping her feet on the floor with nerves. Emily put a hand on her shoulder. "Nai?"

"I... I-I don't know."

Effy stared at the couple whilst litting a cigarrette. "You know that you don't have to do that, right?"

Naomi stared at the brunette girl and shrugged. "The problem is that you two are going to show your real selves on the video, a video where Emily and I... it's huge. We are not ready to do that, yet."

"Do what?" Asked Katie.

Effy answered her and took a drag, so relaxed. "Get the fuck out of the closet in public."

The petite redhead grabbed her girlfriend's hand and squeezing it, she smiled. Katie smiled when she saw the sympathetic look that Naomi had given to her sister and she talked. "Have you really thought about it?" The both girls nodded.

"It seems that we're hiding who we are and when we started this we said that we were going to be ourselves." Said Naomi, explaining their situation. "Also, we don't think that the homosexuality is that kind of bad."

Effy nodded. "Probably the people won't give a shit."

"You know that it's impossible." Said Emily. "The people will start to talk about us and we don't know if in a good way or..."

Katie put a hand on her sister's back. "Why don't you talk about it, you two, and take a decision?"

Her sister smiled. She loved when Katie was so empathic with her and she was grateful because she needed to talk with Naomi, just with her.

She was a little scared but she nodded and Katie smiled too, opening her arms. "I want a massive hug of you right now."

And they laughed and hugged each other because yeah, they were rock stars but the most important thing was that they were friends.

When Effy and Katie left their flat, (half an hour after that conversation) Naomi and Emily cuddled on their couch.

"Tell me the scene." Murmured Naomi on her ear.

Emily smiled. "I am crying and you arrive a little bit panicked because you have had the sensation that someone has been following you. Then you see me and you hug me, and we start to snog on the floor but you carry me to the wall and we start to have sex, there." The blonde girl laughed and Emily stared at her, raising an eyebrow. "Don't laugh! I have read the plot and you have to bury your hand on my knickers."

"Seriously?" Asked Naomi with a smirk on her face. "Maybe we should rehearse a little, you know..."

Emily smiled and she sat on the top of Naomi, on that couch. She caressed her face with her fingers so slowly that was making Naomi shiver below her. "Do you want to do the video scene?"

Naomi smiled and nodded. Emily kissed her lips in a lazy movement and the blonde hugged her waist.

"You know..." mumbled Naomi "that when we will be old we'll have a laught about this."

Emily nodded. "Together."

"Of course." Said Naomi and she stood up whilst carrying Emily to the room. "And now, what were you saying about the video scene?"

Emily laughed. "Rehearsal."

"A loooooong long rehearsal, that's it."

And yeah, probably the video scene was a little bit scary but they were together and they were going to face that together.

That was all what matters.
