[[The Studio]]
-Jay Park-
"So she's actually coming huh?" se7en said when I told him I gave Naomi directions to the studio.
“Yeah,” I said, “Told you she’d come,”
“Hmmp, well today should be fun,”
“Yeah… Say, is Hyunjoong coming as well?”
“Yeah, I called him last night apologizing, but were cool now,” he explained.
“Oh ok then,” before I could say anything else my cell beeped. It was a text from Naomi saying she was on her way soon. Which involuntarily made me smile; “She said she’ll be here in about ten minutes.”
About five minutes later Hyunjoong came through; he gave a nod to both of us. He sat in the office chair and said, “I hear the new girl is coming,”
“Yeah she’ll be here any minute,” I said
“Yeah I can’t wait,” se7en grinned.
A couple minutes later a knock came to the door.
“And here she is now,” I grinned as I went to the door.
“Hey Jay!” Naomi smiled, “I finally made it,”
“Awesome, I want you to meet some friends of mine as well,” I said as I led her to them.
Se7en reached out for a handshake, “I’m Dongwook, but you can call me se7en,” he smiled.
Hyunjoong gave a small wave, “I’m Hyunjoong pleasure to meet you,”
“Nice to meet you all,” she bowed, “I’m Naomi,”
“So I guess we should get right to it,” I said, “I was thinking maybe you can sing us a lil song, any song you want,”
She slightly blushed, I could tell she was nervous as hell, “Sure, I don’t mind at all,” she smiled with confidence. We all sat down and waited for her talent to unfold.
-Naomi-
When I came in at met Jay Park and his lil crew I was awestruck because they were all just as handsome, and charming. When Jay asked me to sing a song for them my heart began to race again and my face got hot. I wanted to sing an original song of mine but I was scared I’d forget or mess up. So I sang a song I knew like the back of my hand. ’16 at war’ by Karina. When I saw all eyes was on me I straighten myself up and sung my heart out.
Ain't no daddys where I'm from it's just mad mothers
And eyes that still seem they can't look past color
Why am I disrespected by someone I should call brother
And why girls feeling pretty but constantly hate eachother
Bad air in my lungs man I can't breathe
My eyes burnin from all the dirt and debris
And it's third degree emotionless on the scene
It's like a disease the way ya'll killin me
I'm 16 and I should'nt have to feel like this
I'm 16 and every young boy out here wanna kiss
I'm 16 and me and my momma goin through it
I'm 16 on the block, I'm 16 on the block
I'm 16(at war) I'm 16(at war)I'm 16(at war)I'm 16(at war)I'm 16(at war)I'm 16
(At war)I'm 16 on the block I'm 16 on the block
Around here cool is another word for fool
If he smoke than she smoke I gotta smoke too
Now what would I do if I didn't have a clue
I'm 16 why oh askin god oh why oh
If my clothes ain't tight than he ain't gon like me
Eyes on the prize so the next girl dress just like me
I'm so full of promise
but why promise if Im'ma just be rewarded by bad actions
to him I'm just a transaction……..
When I finished I smiled and what they thought about it, I looked at Jay and he had this glowing smile on his face and his other two friends looked impressed as well.
“Wow, guess ol Jay wasn’t bullshitting,” Se7en said, “You are good,”
“Thanks so much, it means a lot to me,”
“I like ya style, Naomi,” Jay said, “I was thinking maybe next Friday or so, we can maybe start writing some songs,”
My face lit up, “Totally!”
“And were here for help as well,” Hyunjoong added.
“Wow, thanks guys, I never had a support system like this,” I told them. It felt real good to have people like my singing.
Se7en then stood up and said, “Say let’s show her, what we can do since we put her in the spotlight,”
“Yeah I’d love to hear what you guys got,” I said.
“Ok, guess I’ll go first,” se7en said.
He got up and went over to the piano and began to sing an original song of his called “When I Can’t Sing”. When I heard his voice I was blown away by how…Gentle like it was, I wouldn’t expect it out of a guy like him. But I liked it.
When he finished he stood up and bowed and shot a grin at me.
“That was really good!” I told him.
“Heh, it’s nothing,” he shrugged, and then he nudged Hyunjoong, “Your turn,”
He coolly got and took the center, and began to sing a song of his called “Heat”.
For some reason I expected something real slow for some reason, but it had a nice tune to it. I’m going to assume that Hyunjoong has an inner rock star in him.
I applauded for him, “Niiice!” then I looked at Jay, “Sooo you just gonna sit there?” I teased.
He looked at me smirked, “No way, I’m the best for last!” he got up and smiled at me, “I dedicate this to you as well,”
He then began to sing a song called “I got your back” and I must say, it was a really cute song; it really made me blush though. No one has ever sung a song to me. Let alone a love song, honestly I didn’t know how to take it when he finished. I just sat there smiling; then I stood up and gave him a hug.
“Aww, that was so sweet!” I cried. “Thanks, that was so nice of you,”
“Guess I can now say: Welcome to the Crew,” se7en said.
“All ya’ll are very talented,” I said, “Hopefully I can catch up at least half way to you all’s talent,”
“You really don’t think so highly of your singing huh?” Hyunjoong stated.
I gave a sheepish grin, “Well, I AM a newbie, so I kinda can’t help it,”
Jay placed a hand on my shoulder, “Well with our help—but mainly MY help,” he grinned at his friends then turned back to me, “We’ll make you more confident,”
He was serious to, I guess I need to stop being a worry butt about fucking up and become more serious as well.
“Ok, and were shall I meet to start on the songs?” I asked.
“Hmm,” Jay looked up and started to think, even when thinking he’s still cute as ever, “My place, Saturday at 6?”
“I’ll be there,”
“Cool,” he looked out the window, “Wow it’s almost dark already, Want me to walk you outside?”
“Sure,” he guided out to the door and then we herd snickering and an “oooooooohh” from his two friends.
Jay shot them a look, “Oh chill, I’m just being nice,”
“Suuuureee” they both said in unison.
He shook his head, let’s go Naomi, Outside he opened my car door for me, “It was fun having you around,” he said
I smiled, “Yeah I had a nice time, you guys are pretty cool, and thanks again to!”
“No prob,” the he tapped the top of my car, “Well you have a safe ride home, and I’ll see you Saturday,” he said with that pretty smile again.
After saying goodbye I turned my car on and drove my way home.
“Wow, this went better than I had thought,” I said smiling to myself, being in a good mood I turned the radio and jammed my way home.
-Jay Park-
After I Naomi left I went back into the studio, se7en and Hyunjoong just sat there grinning like idiots.
“What?” I said.
“’Oh Naomi, I’m the best for last, I’m going to sing you a little loooove sooongg,” se7en said mockingly.
“Please, let me walk you to your caaarr,” Hyunjoong joined in. they both finished by making kissy noises.
“K-I-S-S-I-N-G,” Hyunjoong sang.
“Something something something about a tree,” se7en added.
I rolled my eyes, despite their so called nice looks; those two can be real assholes. “Are ya’ll done yet?” I said unamused.
“Bro, this isn’t about her singing,” se7en said, “I mean she IS good, I’m not gonna lie, but if I’m not mistaken you’re trying to get with her romantically,”
“You’re so obvious Jay,” Hyunjoong added.
“Just because I’m being nice doesn’t mean I was flirting with her,” I explained.
“Oh and that song was just being nice as well to huh?”
“Well…yeah, I mean it had some strong words but—”
“Baby you are
You’re number one in my heart
Your face is number one
Your body and nice personality is number one,” Se7en said, restating a lyric in my song.
Then Hyunjoong added, “Listen up Let me love you right I can give you what like Share his love with me forever Baby you’re my boo” Then they both gave me the same look that read: You’re bullshitting.
“Ok, ok, ok… So I did say some strong stuff, but it was just a song,”
Se7en scoffed, “JUST a song, dude when you dedicate a song like that to a girl, she’s gonna think you trying to get with her,”
“Well if she thinks I like her, I’m cool with that, she’s pretty cute anyway. And if she doesn’t then oh well.”
“She may not be a typical Korean girl but she’s still a woman,” he stated, “and what you did could make any woman of any race become infatuated.”
`He sort of made a point, but my whole purpose of bring Naomi was not to get in her pants or anything. Geez why does my kindness get mistaken for flirting.
I sighed, “well, if you say so,”
