"Alright, Sutton! Let's start with one of your new songs!" Katie said from behind the glass. "How about History?"
Sutton nodded her head as the music began to play.
Sorry, I don't really see this workin' out It's nothin' you did I just can't do this right now No easy way to say this and I don't know how It's nothin' ya did But here goes lettin' you down
This song was definitely different from all her other songs, but it's one she's been working on for years. She finally had the courage to finish it, thanks to Charlie.
Baby, you're so perfect But he's the perfect one for me I know that you're worth it But somethin' 'bout him gets to me Gets to me, all I need Plus, we got history
The music playing in her ears distracted her from how she could hear her own voice. Everyone in the room sat, jamming to her new song.
I used to love him, he used to love me Yeah, we go way, way, way, way back We love, love, love like thatNow, I still love him, and he still loves me Yeah, we go way, way, way, way back We love, love, love like that
Sutton continued until the song was over, smiling to herself. She was so excited that she had this opportunity to do something like this.
"Okay, let's do, talk me out of it," Katie said.
Blue, the lights we were under When you took your phone out And gave me your numberNow it's two We've asked all the questions We've done all the small talk Now there's nothing left except
Taking shots, sharing lines And spilling truth, oh I wonder if you're gonna try to make a move A move'Cause I'm 'bout to go to my apartment But you could keep talkin' me outta it My friends are leavin' the party But I'm down for one more drink It's my first time in this outfit (oh) But maybe you'll talk mе out of it Was gonna slow it down a bit But you can talk me out of it So talk me out of it
"Okay, two more. Go with Had me at Hello!"
I can feel you comin' from a mile away My pulse starts racing from the words that you say And you say so many of them like you don't have a clue That I'm signed, sealed delivered with a stamp on
This was one she wrote just last night, after her date with Charlie. So many feelings had rushed over her after he left and she knew it would make a good song.
You don't have to try too hard You already have my heart You don't got a thing to prove I'm already into you So
She smiled to herself as she continued to sing. She was loving every minute of this and never wanted to stop. There was like this rush she got whenever she was in the recording booth and it never wanted it to go away.
Hold, Hold, Hold, hold me tight now Cause I'm so, so good to go Don't say, Don't say good night you know You had me at hello You had me at hello You had me at hello Don't say, don't say good night you know You had me at hello
"Last one! You're killing it girl!"
Sutton smiled at the comment as the song began.

"Charlie, you literally have flour all over your face," Sutton laughed as the two made cookies.
"That's how you know you've done something," He chuckled, putting some flour on her nose.
"Hey!" She said lightly shoving his shoulder.
"What? You look cute with flour on your nose," He said grabbing her waist leaning in. Instead of kissing her, he wipes a handful of flour all over her face causing her to gasp.
"Charlie!" Sutton yelled as she threw flour on his face.
"You're gonna pay for that Mercer!" He yelled as she ran around the hotel room.
She ran, ducking in every room she could think of before he eventually found her, grabbing her by the waist and bringing her back to the kitchen. Charlie sat her on the counter and grabbed a washcloth, wiping the flour off her face.
"I think you got a little something on your face," He chuckled as he continued to wipe off the flour.
"Oh really?" She asked sarcastically.
"Yeah," He whispered as he leaned in, placing his lips on hers ever so softly. "God, the things I would do to you, Sutton,"
Her breathing hitched in her throat as she continued to kiss him. Her hands made their way to his hair, lightly pulling each time. The kiss became hungrier, each time the two wanting more. They were so close, but it felt like they were close enough. Sutton reached for the hem of his shirt, tugging it off. She took in his chest, so big and muscular. God, he was hot, she thought to herself. He reached for her shirt, taking it off and throwing it across the room. His mouth kissed every inch of her body, making her head lean back. She was loving every second of this.
"Sutton," Charlie whispered as he kissed her neck.
"Mhm?" She muttered.
"Will you be my girlfriend?"
