Reflection 2:Better Together

•2•

After the meeting, I spent the day walking around London and speaking to fans, trying hard not to think about the impending doom of seeing Lauren again. Since I'd spoken to the Little Mix girls while on the plane the day before, I decided to stay the night at Jesy and Leigh Anne's house to keep my mind off of things, and to have a little girl time. After eating lunch at Nandos, and buying myself a new pair of sneakers and matching snapback, I walked over to the girls flat, where we spent time catching up.

Now, Jess was ordering take away and Leigh was searching for a movie for us to watch.

"Paigey, we've seen all of these movies." Leigh complained to me. She was rummaging through the DVD case while I lounged on the couch, "Well we don't necessarily have to watch a movie. Let's watch mTV! The Spice Girls special is on." Jesy cheered, noticing the TV guide.

"Sounds good to me, Scary Spice is cute."

"I figured you'd like Posh." Leigh said, getting up and dusting off her pajamas. She came and sat next to me, changing the channel to mTV.

"Hi, I'm Victoria Beckham and we will be right back after the break!"

"Darn it, we missed the beginning." I complained.

"You just wanna see Mel B." Leigh Anne rolled her eyes.

"I have a thing for tall, tan, older, and curly, shut up!" I laughed, "If only you were a few inches taller.."

"In your dreams." She laughed.

Jesy shook her head observing the exchange between us.

Leigh was like a sister to me, completely off limits.

"mTV exclusive tonight, Fifth Harmony debuts their new album, Past Life at 12 A.M. in the UK! Don't miss it on UStream now, and buy your copies before they sell out!"the TV announced catching my attention. My neck turned towards the television just in time to see the album art. It was a bit more grunge than glam, featuring a shot of the girls in an alley way, dressed in more laid back clothing than their usual dresses.

"Well, looks like we're gonna have to change the channel now." Jesy chuckled, noticing I was staring.

"You think the album is on UStream now?" Something inside of me compelled me to ask. There was something about the title...

"You're kidding. You wanna listen to it? I thought you didn't associate with them?"

"I don't. But I'm an artist, I'm going to listen to it to see what my competition is. Not to mention I'm stuck going on tour with them, remember?"

"Yeah, okay, I believe that," Leigh says sarcastically pulling out her phone, "here lover girl. You act all tough when you know you're going to cry if she even speaks to you."

I glare at her before taking it, seeing that she's already pre ordered it from iTunes. The titles on the track list catch my eye immediately.

1) Missing You

2) Past Life

3) Mistakes

4) Voids

5) Who Are You (Reprise)

6) Hold Onto What We Had

7) Momentary High

8) Try Again Tomorrow

And so forth.

I didn't even bother to listen to them, instead looking at the album credits. Produced by Doctor Luke, TheFamily, Epic Records. I kept looking until one found the song writers: Linnea Deb, Camila Cabello, Meghan Trainor, Ed Sheeran..Lauren Jauregui.
