Fighting and Song Writing

I wake up and rub the sleep out of my eyes. As much as I don't want to leave my bed, I get up and walk downstairs.

"Good morning," Anthony greets me in the kitchen, eating at the table.

"Hey," I smile. "Is everyone else sleeping?"

"Almost everyone is, but I think a few people are awake," he explains. "And can I ask you a question?"

"Go ahead," I agree.

"Did you and Shawn break up?" he questions me.

"Um, yeah," I answer. "Why?"

"You two were really awkward last night. You could have cut the tension with a knife," he tells me.

"Yeah," I sigh. "It is a little awkward. But it was a forced break up. The record label we're signed to made us break up."

"That's messed up!" he exclaims.

"I know," I frown. "But we haven't really told anyone. I mean everyone who lives here knows. And you know now too, but that's pretty much all."

"Are you sure?" he asks. "Get on twitter."

I raise an eyebrow at him, but I pull out my phone and get on twitter. I scroll through my feed and see fans tweeting #RIPshexie. WHAT!?

I quickly go to the trending hashtags, and right there is #RIPshexie, which is trending number one world wide.

"Who leaked it?" I wonder out loud. "All of the guys promised they wouldn't tell anyone until Shawn and I were ready."

Just to make sure that they hadn't accidentally tweeted it, I check all of their accounts. Sure enough, none of them tweeted it.

That leaves one person.

I run upstairs and start banging my fist on Shawn's bedroom door. A few seconds later Shawn opens the door, yawning and trying to fix his hair. It looks like he just got out of bed.

"Hey, Lex, what's going on-"

"Shawn, how could you!?" I cry out. "I thought we agreed not to tell them yet!"

He looks at me blankly. "What? Tell who?"

"Tell the fandom about us!" I yelled.

"What are you talking about?! I didn't!" he yells back at me. "I was sleeping!"

Cameron walks out of his room and his eyes go big, seeing us fighting. He slowly backs away and goes back into his room, shutting the door behind him.

I grab my phone and hold it up to his face. "Look what's trending."

"Woah," he gasps. "How is that trending? I didn't tell anyone!"

"Then who did!?" I snap at him.

"Maybe it was the guys," he suggests.

"It wasn't," I sigh. "I already checked all of their social medias. We also told them not to. And then Anthony is the only other person I told, other than my family."

"I told the O2L guys and Connor, but they promised not to tell anyone until we were ready to tell the world," he explains. "Wait, why did you think that I told everyone?"

"I don't know," I mumble. "I knew that the guys didn't so that left you. But anyways, who did then?"

"I have no idea."

"Are you sure that Aaliyah didn't tell one of her friends that or something?" I ask.

"Are you accusing my little sister for this?" he yells. "She would never do that, and she promised she wouldn't!"

"I'm sorry," I sigh, sliding my back down the wall until I'm sitting on the ground. "I just don't know about anything anymore."

Shawn sits down next to me. "It's okay," he assures. "This wasn't the way I wanted everyone to find out either. Let's go to the studio and talk to Charles and Angela. Maybe they'll know something."

"Yeah," I agree.

I walk over to my room and start getting changed when I realize something. Shawn and I just had our first fight. We've never actually fought. Yeah, we've bickered before but we've never had a full out yelling fight, and I hope that never happens ever again.

I shake that thought from my mind and look down at my outfit. I'm wearing a white flowy dress with my brown boots and my flower crown. I leave my hair down, naturally curly and then lightly do my makeup.

I walk downstairs and see Shawn standing by the door. "Ready?"

I nod and then we walk to the car. I get into the drivers seat and start to drive.

"And they say, she's in the class A-Team stuck in her daydream, been this way since eight-teen," I sing along to Ed Sheeran's A-Team on the radio.

When we arrive at the studio, Shawn and I get out of the car and head inside.

"Um are Charles and Angela available in room 223?" Shawn asks the security guard.

"Yeah, just go head up to the top floor," he explains.

Shawn and I hurry over to the elevator and click the bottom to go to the top floor. I listen to the fancy elevator music and slightly nod my head to the weirdly fascinating beat.

After the elevator stops at our floor, we get out and then start knocking on the door we're suppose to be at.

"Hello-" Angela starts to say but Shawn and I run inside the room.

"Did you hear?" I ask.

"What are you talking about-" Charles starts to question me, but Shawn interrupts him.

"The fandom found out about us!" he exclaims while gesturing towards me. "We don't know who told them. We were going to decided together when we were going to tell them, but we weren't ready yet! We checked out friend's twitters and they didn't tell anyone.

"Oh, we told everyone," Charles shrugs while taking a sip of his Coke.

"WHAT!?" Shawn and I yell in unison.

"Why didn't you ask us first?" I gawk.

"Because it's not your decision," he snaps. "You two are already broken up and so the fandom needs to know."

"So it's your decision?" Shawn frowns. "Lexie and I broke up over your command so we should have at least gotten to tell them!"

"But did you see it's trending number one world wide on twitter?!" Angela grins happily. "This will get you two so much more attention! This is great!"

I clench my jaw and then Shawn speaks up.

"Your kidding me, right? Your happy about this?" he spits out. "This is ridiculous."

"Forget about that," Charles commands. "You two need to work on singing a cover while we work on writing your new music. So go practice now."

"Now?" I gasp. "We only came here to ask you guys about that, not to sing."

"Well this is your job now," Angela explains. "We tell you when to work. And we're telling you to do that now."

I see Shawn clench his hands into fists and look at the floor.

"What song are we suppose to sing?" I ask them.

"I really don't care, just make it sound good," Charles instructs. "Now go to the band room and figure it out." Then he pushes us out of the door and slams it in our face."

"They are such pleasant people," I say sarcastically.

"Tell me about it," Shawn sighs as we enter the band room. "So.. What song should we sing?"

"We could sing 'This is Gospel' by Panic! At The Disco," I suggest.

"What's that?" he questions me.

I grab his arm and head toward the the piano. I sit down at the piano bench, pull up the lyrics for the song, and start playing the notes.

"If you love me let me go, if you love me let me go, 'cause these words are knives and often leave scars, the fear of falling apart," I sing before Shawn joins. "And truth be told I never was yours, the fear, the fear of falling apart."

"I like that," Shawn smiles. "Can we sing that for the cover?"

"Definitely," I agree.

After a while of figuring out who is going to sing what, we are finally ready to sing the cover.

We record the cover and then go back up to the studio.

"I'm excited to listen to the cover," I smile. "I think it'll sound really good."

"Yeah, I'm excited too," Shawn agrees.

I knock on the studio door and then Angela answers it. "Are you two done?"

"Yep," Shawn grins. "We finished it and recorded it."

"Here," I say while handing her the CD with our cover on it. "Are we allowed to go now?"

"Go ahead. We'll call you guys when we need you back here," she explains while scurrying us away.

Shawn and I head back down to my car. "Honestly, this has probably been one of the weirdest days ever..."

"Yeah," he laughs. "And I'm sorry for yelling at you today.."

"Me too," I sigh. "I don't know what's been happening lately. We've been a little off lately, if you know what I mean."

"Yeah," he agrees. "It seems like the studio's been trying to make us farther apart. Doesn't it?"

I think for a moment and then respond. "What do you mean?"

"Never mind. I was just going to say, that they caused us to break up and that they've also caused us to fight," he explains.

"I see what you mean," I exclaim. "But wouldn't they want us to be friends if we're music partners?"

"True. I don't know what to think anymore," Shawn chuckles.

"Yeah. Anyways, ready to go back home?" I question him and he nods.

"I'll drive," he offers and I smile.

"Thanks."

We get into the car and then drive back to our house. Everyone is still there.

"Hey!" JC greets us. "Cameron told us about what happened. Did you guys ever find out who told the fandom?"

"Yeah, we actually did," I frown. "It turns out that it was the studio, Charles and Angela."

"Are you serious!?" Lauren gasps.

"Completely," I laugh softly.

"They told everyone without you guys agreeing!?" Aaron gawks. "But they made you two break up. Wouldn't they at least let you two tell your fans?"

"I guess not," Shawn chuckles, "because they went and told them on twitter."

"Wow," Jack G sighs. "That sucks."

Then everyone goes back to whatever they were doing before.

"Hey, Lexie," Matt says, walking over to me.

"Hey, what's up?" I smile.

"I was just wondering, did you and Shawn fight this morning?" he questions me.

"Yeah," I frown. "How'd you know?"

"Um... Well you guys were really loud. You two woke up Cameron and then everyone else in the house could hear you guys."

"Yeah," I sigh. "Sorry about that."

"It's fine," he assures me. "Is everything between you two okay?"

"I hope so. I really do."
