"Okay,so this is where you and your,special friend,will be living." Aster says,pulling up to a huge mansion.

"Woah." Jack whispers as we walk up to the gates. It has a voice box,and Aster motions to it,as if telling me to try it.

I press the green button and say my name. There's a buzz,but then the giant black gates open. We walk up the sidewalk and Aster hands me the the keys to open the front door.

Inside, I'm greeted with a huge main room,which is more like a media room. "Okay,I have to go,I have a meeting. But I will send someone to pick you up tomorrow for your first recording."Aster says,before saying a quick goodbye before leaving us alone.

"Okay,so what do we know about this place?" Jack asks.

"I've seen it on a website or something before. Two stories, eight bedrooms,six and a half baths,movie theater,indoor Jacuzzi, outdoor pool,and a bunch of other stuff." I say.

"Awesome! And we live here?"

"From my understanding. Let's go choose our bedrooms." I say,dragging my suitcases behind me.

I choose a bedroom with soft grays and ice blues complete with a flat screen,mini fridge, and walk in closet.

I unpack my suitcases then head downstairs to see Jack in the living room. "What do you want to do on our first beautiful day here?" I ask.

"Um,singing contest in the movie theater?" he asks.

"Okay. We have five minutes to write a song,then we perform. Okay?" I ask. Jack nods,so I get to work writing a song. After five minutes I have a decent song written.

We walk to the theater and I agree to go first. I take my spot on stage and Jack turns off all the lights,except one on me.

(Song used:Sparkling Diamonds by Nichole Kidman)

The French are glad to die for love
They delight in fighting duels
But I prefer a man who lives
And gives expensive jewels

A kiss on the hand may be
Quite continental
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
A kiss may be grand but it
Won't pay the rental on your humble flat
Or help you feed your pussy cat
Men grow cold as girls grow old
And we all losr our charm in the end
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don't lose their shap
Diamonds are a girl's best friend

Cause we are living I
In a material world
And I am a material girl

Ah,come and get me boys
Black Star,Ross Cole
Talk to me,Jack Frost,tell me all about it!
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer

But diamonds are a girl's best friend

There may come a time when a hard boiled employer
Thinks your awful nice
But get that ice or else no dice

He's your guy when stocks are high
But beware when they start to descend
Oh,diamonds are a girl's best friend

Cause that's when these louses go back to their spouses
Diamonds!
Diamonds!
Are a girl's best friend!

I take a deep breath as soon as I finish and Jack explodes with applause. "But is that true? That's the only thing your using me for? Materials?" he asked.

"No,frostbutt,I think I'm falling in love with you again." I laugh going to the second row of seats as Jack takes his place at the stage. Then he starts singing.

(Song used:Battle Scars by Lupe Fiasco feat. Guy Sebastian)

Hope the wound heals
But it never does
That's cause you at war with love
You at war with love

These battle scars!
Don't look like their fading
Don't look like their ever going away
They aint ever gonna change
These battle....

Never let a wound ruin me
But I feel like ruins ruin me
Arrow holes that never close
From cupid on a shooting spree
Feeling stupid cause I know that there ain't no you and me

But when your trying to keep the odds up
Been trying to keep your nods up
And you know that you should know
And let her go but the fear of the unknown
Holding another lover strong sends you back into the zone

With no Tom Hanks to bring you home
A lover not a fighter on the front line with a poem

Trying to write yourself a rifle
Maybe sharpen up a song
To find the tanks and drones of you being alone

I wish I never looked
I wish I never touched
I wish that I could stop loving you so much
Cause I'm the only one that's trying to keep us together
When all of the signs say that I should forget her
I wish you weren't the best,the best I ever had
I wish that good outweighed the bad
Cause it I'll never be over until you tell me its over

These battle scars!
Don't look like they're fading!
Don't look like their ever going away!
They ain't ever gonna change

These battle scars!
Don't look like they're fading
Don't look like they're ever going away
They ain't ever gonna change
These battle scars!

And then he stops. "Why'd you stop?" I ask from the second row.

"That's all I wrote." he shrugs.

"Well,it was amazing. I didn't know you could sing that well. Remind me to keep you around for duets." I laugh.

I get up and walk over to him. "So what now? We have all day to ourselves." I say.

"At least I'm spending it with you." Jack smiles.

"Cheese ball." I laugh. Sure,I act all cheery and fun,and maybe flirtatious at moments,but inside,I'm still that girl that was in the hospital two weeks ago. Shaky,uncertain, second guessing herself,and terrified to fall back in love with the very boy that broke her.
