My finger slowly touched each one of the keys from the key board. The whole studio was in silence except for the keys notes. 

Being in the studio, alone, was something I hadn't done in a long time. Writing new music again felt like a whole new world. There was so many things I had to write about.

Love. Betrayal. Loss. 

I had only been here for two hours and had already written rough drafts of three songs. Of course I needed a producer to help me actually make it into a song, but for now I just wanted to be by myself and write whatever I wanted. I just wanted to feel my creativity back. The tough part was allowing myself to feel all my emotions in order to write a good song.

The reality was, I didn't even know what was going to happen with my music career. After I quit All Oblivion, I was left with nothing. No management. No label. Nothing. I doubted any record company or or management company wanted me after so much drama that the tabloids had put me in. Or I put myself in.

It was a scary feeling not knowing where your dream was headed, if it was rising up to the stars or going down the drain.

It's been two weeks since Willow's funeral. I've actually been doing a lot better than I thought. I've been handling it a lot better than anyone thought I would. Surprisingly I haven't been out. I haven't been drinking. I haven't been using any kinds of drugs. The tragedy of Willow scared all that stuff out of me.

I deactivated every single of my of social media sites too. I didn't want to know what people were saying about me. I didn't want to hear all the nasty rumors. I needed a cleanse from all that. The only thing that I wanted to do was find myself and figure out what kind person and artist I wanted to be.

Harry has been off my radar since Willow's funeral. I haven't seen or talked to him since. He hasn't tried to contact me either. Somewhere inside me, I expected him to somehow contact me but he didn't. I guess I told him to leave me alone too much. But that was the point. We needed to stay away from each other.

This was a good thing.

As soon as I heard the studio door open, I looked over seeing Liam walk in and close the door behind him. He smiled at me and threw himself on the couch.

" back to black?" he asked pointing out my hair.

" dark brown actually" I smiled

Liam looked over at my writing pad and looked quite surprised.

" how's the writing going?" he asked.

" honestly? I'm writing a lot but I don't know if they're any good" I confessed with a laugh.

Liam gave me a smile again but I felt like there was something a little off from the energy he was giving off.

" what's wrong?" I asked.

He sighed.

" I quit my job" he said looking down at his hands,.

I didn't even have to ask why. I knew Liam had been hating his job over at the management company. From time and time again he would tell me about the spoiled clients he had to deal with. I felt for him.

He had had a great time when he used to manage his sister, Lia. Maybe it was just wrong timing for him with that management company. Not all artists were spoiled brats. When I was with the boys, we didn't treat anyone like that, not that I noticed anyway.

I knew Liam was worried he would have to go find a job somewhere he didn't want to, like an office place. Liam just wanted to find his perfect client.

" manage me" I said.

He looked up with a confused expression.

" I need someone to manage me. Someone to help me find a label. Someone who supports me. You're one of the few people I trust. You're perfect for the job" I smiled.

" I've only managed people who were starting to get into the business, Cai. With Lia, it ended as soon as she got big because she didn't think I could handle it. With the management company, the world didn't even know about the people I worked with yet. I don't know if I'm well trained to manage someone as big as you" Liam shook his head.

I knew what he felt. He was feeling scared. So was I

" I'm starting over, Liam. I trust you" I said hoping he would agree to my crazy idea.

I could feel him hesitate. 

But in the end, he nodded with a smile
