Chapter 36

-          Now what is that and why is my name on it?, I asked as I put my glasses on after we mucked around on the instruments for a while.

-          This my young Lady is a contract., John said.

-          Whoa! What type?, Dee asked.

-          Record!, Bek said looking at the look on Buffy’s face.

-          Whoa! Hold on! That’s a record deal? Ha my ass!, I said in shock.

-          Yes Miss Waterson! At the moment it’s just to record a demo and a couple of songs and depending on what the management thinks then it will go further., John said.

-          What company?, I asked.

-          Not Trans Con!, John laughed.

-          Jive!, Buffy stated.

-          When do we start? I mean with Buffy in here., Dee asked him.

-          In a months time we will start recording but there are some songs I have given Buffy that I would think you girls would like.

-          They ain’t bad either., Buffy added.

-          Okay. Look… I gotta think this over., Dee said.

-          We all do., Bek added.

-          I’m in!, Buffy said and I just looked at her.

-          Count me too…, I sighed.

-          You sure?, Buffy said.

-          I know if I say no, I may regret it for the rest of my life. I’ll give anything a go at least once.

-          If I could jump out of bed I would!, Buffy squealed.

* A Few Hours Later *

-          Bek talk to your parents and if they think we are good they will do something for us., I said to her as Dee and myself walked out of the hospital with the contracts in our hands.

-          How do we know people will like us?, Dee asked.

-          Honestly? No idea!, I said after thinking about it.

-          We could be famous., Bek said slowly.

-          We could also not., Dee said.

-          We don’t know if we are good enough., I added.

-          I don’t know., Dee sighed.

-          You know what let’s not talk about it any more. If it happens it does and if it don’t… well yeah!, I said.

As soon as I dropped Bekah and Dee’s to their place, heck they’re neighbors. I ran into my room and grab my guitar with a pencil and a bunch of papers. I had a few words coming into my head, enough to make a song, but after an hour, it almost didn’t lead no where.

-          “I’m sick of telling you all the time; Of justifying what’s on my mind; I wish you’d make some sense you’re making me mad.”, I sung while strumming my guitar.

-          Shit that sucks!, I added as I started to get frustrated.

-          Not to bad., Ryan said walking into my room.

-          Who let you in?, I said looking at him.

-          Your dad actually., he said while adding a smile.

-          Go dad!, I muttered.

-          Play that again. In our 6 months you haven’t ever played for me., Ryan said sitting in front of me.

-          And you haven’t sung. Don’t go lying saying you guy’s don’t!

-          This is about you not me., he laughed.

-          Well you heard all I got.

-          Play.

-          “I’m sick of telling you all the time; Of justifying what’s on my mind; I wish you’d make some sense.”, I sung.

-          “You’re all over the place.”, he added smiling.

-          “You’re all over the place; You make me feel like I…”

-          “Never wanna see your face.”, Ryan sung.

-          “I don’t need to hear the lie’s that you tell; I’m starting to think, I don’t know you that well.”, I sung.

-          How easy is it? You got skill., Ryan asked smiling.

-          It’s ain’t skill it’s desire., I admitted.

-          What?, Ryan asked confused.

-          I want to do this… I desire to do this… I need to do this., I said looking at him.

-          I got a desire but it ain’t for my brain., he said after a few minutes silence.

-          Do you now?, I said smiling before I pulled his face closer to mine.

-          You got it in one!, Ryan laughed before kissing me.
