Daisy and I have been living together for a few months now. We fight sometimes, but what couple doesn't. In the end, I'm happier living with her than I ever could have imagined. It's the little things I have come to love. Getting to cook dinner with her. Late nights just laying in bed talking about nothing. Spending every moment we can together and never getting sick of each other. It was perfect.

Breaking Up was officially released three weeks ago and was topping charts worldwide. We were going to release Heaven's Got a Back Door next week and the full album drops two weeks after that. We've got a lot of buzz going and everyone is so excited for the album to drop.

Daisy's gallery opening was a success as well. She pushed it back after my accident so I could attend. In the end, critics loved her style. All the pieces that were up for sale sold at even higher prices than originally predicted. I couldn't be prouder of her.

"Babe, what do I wear to this video thingy?" Daisy asked as she walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a robe. We were filming our newest music video today and everyone is going to be in it.

"Whatever makes you feel your most beautiful. We want to show off our amazing friends for who they are at this moment in time."

"It's your video." She shook her head as she went to the closet, "But, I don't think I'm going to fit into your band's aesthetic."

I laughed at that as I laced up my vans. "You don't need to fit in. If you fit in with us, you wouldn't be my magical Pixie." I looked in the mirror, adjusting the hem on the red velvet mini dress I was wearing. I turned just in time to see a twirling barefoot Daisy in a white flowing dress that had an almost watercolour pattern on it. She looked perfect.

"And you're my sexy pop-punk princess." She winked.

"Cute, now find some shoes. We're running late." I pressed a kiss to her cheek and went to find my keys. She came out wearing a pair of strappy sandals with her purse over her shoulder. We started to walk towards the car when she began asking what song we were filming again. "I'm sorry, but I have been sworn to secrecy. If I told you, I would have to kill you."

She stuck out her tongue as she got in the car, "Come on, I'm going to find out in less than an hour."

"I know, but we all agreed that it would be a big surprise. You wouldn't want me to break a pinkie promise now? Cause those are sacred." I smirked as she sighed.

"Fine. I won't ask you to break your pinkie promise." She wiggled into her seat and began fiddling with the radio when Breaking Up came on. It was strange hearing my song played on the radio. It was a clean version, of course, but still so strange.

We arrived at the studio to find everyone was waiting in front of the multicoloured sets. All our friends had come, Mark, Reid, Andrew, Mel, Kim, our producer Everett and a few other friends from throughout the years. Everyone decked out in their signature styles. Andrew wore a suit, Kim a slinky black dress, Reid in a plain white t-shirt and jeans. It was a perfect snapshot of our friends at this time.

"Rebecca!" The director called out as soon as he spotted me, "Perfect, we're all set up. I need all of you to remember we are lip-syncing this. Play like usual but try to listen to the recording and keep to the script." He looked over at Adam as he said the last part. Adam was notorious for adding little extra riffs to our performances and had ruined more than a few takes.

"Yes. I know. I'll be good." Adam sighed.

"Okay, so for the first shot, we're doing this like a fun dance party. We're going to have everyone on the dance floor having fun. We want Rebecca singing and if the rest of you feel like singing along, go do that. We'll run through a few times but just have fun and pretend I'm not even filming."
