Sell songs, make money

Alexithymiaa: -Steph was standing in the recording booth determined to get some sort of track laid down to send off before Bryan got to Portland tomorrow and the world essentially exploded in true Bryan fashion. She wanted to try to secure some funds to pay off the medical bill at the very least. She hit play on the keyboard she was working with, a very garage band type of beat coming out of it as she moved in front of the microphone. "Another night, another party. Sayin hi to everybody. I'm sorry. It's time to leave, I gotta leave now. Got somewhere I gotta be now. I'm starving."- ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NH1CwNY_Scc )
Covet: Felix was hanging out in the studio working on scheduling some other promo shoots for other bands within Steph's band's label. He fully intended to do his part for their funds. Finishing up the email he was working on, he pulled up the school's photography scholarship application and got working on it next.
Alexithymiaa: "I can't fake another smile, I can't fake like I'm alright. And I won't say Im feeling fine. After what I been through, I can't lie. Fuck a fake smile, smile. Fuck a fake smile, fake smile." She turned and turned turned the keyboard tracking off, walking quickly out of the booth and to the mixing board to stop the recording. "Hopefully this sounds good enough to send a demo to Annaliese. Did you enter that contest yet?"-
Covet: "It sounded good from where I'm sitting." He said looking up with a smile, before looking back down at his laptop. "I'm working on it right now, actually. I was getting some other shoots scheduled. Checking with the label to see if they have any work, fairly local. Maybe a weekend drive up to Seattle." He said as he typed out his info.
AlexithymiaaAlexithymiaa : "You always say that." SHe said as she copied the track over to her flashdrive, lingering next to the board. "I wish I knew more people than I do. I feel like if I knew more people I could get you some contact information or something. Everyone needs a good photographer, right?"-
Covet: "I'm sorry, that I think everything you produce is good?" Felix said trying to sound apologetic. "It's okay, I'm not entirely without. Maybe Dean still has some contacts from when he was out here?"
Alexithymiaa: "You're sweet, but you don't have to lie to me." She said with a laugh, grabbing the flashdrive and walking over to the couch to shove it into her bag. "He might, but he did a LOT of weddings while he was here. I dont think you want to do that..."-
Covet: "I'm not lying, you really do produce some awesome shit." Felix said then cringed and gave a bit of a shrug, "Hey, beggers can't be choosers right now, and money is money."
Alexithymiaa: "Yes... but I don't want you to compromise your artistic integrity and sell yourself out for a few bucks if it's not what you want to be doing. You shouldn't have to change your art just to make money." As she is literally trying to sell some hip hop poppy bullshit.-
Covet: "If I keep it to smaller more intimate settings it's not to bad. It's the big grandiose weddings that I find are too complicated and have too much going on to be properly photographed by one photographer." He told her. "Besides, do you really like doing pop music? Cause it's not much different than what you're doing right now."
Alexithymiaa: "Well... if that's what you want to do, I'd be happyto be your assistant for whatever weddings you work. For any shoots you work, really. I can't imagine it's easy for you to manuever things and get set up right now." She said as she zipped her bag and then dropped onto the couch. "I actually like pop music, thank you very much. A lot of what I've written so far is more pop than rock anyway. Anna's style is just..." She trailed off, biting the inside of her cheek. "..it's an interesting challenge to find what she likes while staying within something I'm proud to put my name on."-
Covet: "After meeting her, I can see that, I mean, she's kind of on the complete opposite end of the spectrum compared to you." Felix said with a laugh." Yeah, not so easy, and with the surgery coming up, I'm going to need the help. I just don't want to cut into what you're doing, and have accidentally overlapping schedules. I don't want anymore stress than necessary."
Alexithymiaa: "She's changed from the first time I met her. She used to be a lot more annoying and naive. Now she's just annoying." She said with a shrug, picking up a couch pillow to toy with. "I can make whatever you schedule, work. Things can be moved and adjusted. And worst case scenario I'll see if Will and Dan can help move some gear. Thats what roadies are for right?"-
Covet: "Yeah, do you think the fame has kind of gone to her head? Seeing as she started so young?" Felix asked, "Hey, I'd be willing to toss some cash their way, and they'll get free cake too. They always let us have cake at the weddings."
Alexithymiaa: "I definitely think so. But at the same time, she was kind of a rich bitch to start off with so she didn't have very far to go." She dropped her chin onto the pillow in her lap, watching him. "Knowing Will, he'd do it for the free cake alone."-
Covet: Felix looked back down at this screen and continued typing away. "Ah, gotta love the privledged life." He said with a laugh, "Men are kind of easy like that."
Alexithymiaa: "It's true, you are. I feel like I could ask you to do anything for me and as long as I bribed you with brownies, you'd do it." She got up from the couch and walked over to him, leaning down to pick up his computer to craddle against her chest as she gently sat across his lap. "It's a good thing though."-
Covet: "Hey now, don't dis a good bribe." He told her looking at her, letting his fingers run through her hair a little bit. "Is it?" He asked watching her, figuring he could finish what he was doing later.
Alexithymiaa: -She nodded. "It is. Although something tells me I don't really need to bribe you to help me with anything. You're dependable like that." She flashed him a quick smile and then leaned in, kissing his lips.-
Covet: He smirked and kissed her back. "I try to be, but that just means I should be rewarded with brownies, right?" He asked her, because now he was thinking about brownies.
Alexithymiaa: "Have I ever not rewarded you with food or some sort of other equally desirable prize?" She asked with a laugh, moving her hand to stroke over his head.-
Covet: "If it's not food, it's usually something sexy and pink. Which I suppose is fairly equal." He said getting a little gropey, "Hmm.... I think I just found another new perk" He said giving her breast a squeeze.
Alexithymiaa: "You suppose?" She asked with a raise of her brows, her cheeks turning red when he grabbed some tit. "Felix!" she said quickly, glancing over her shoulder to look around, expecting to see some studio people around.

Alexithymiaa: Alexithymiaa: "You suppose?" She asked with a raise of her brows, her cheeks turning red when he grabbed some tit. "Felix!" she said quickly, glancing over her shoulder to look around, expecting to see some studio people around.
Covet: "What? I couldn't help myself." He said, "and it was over the clothes!" Felix added as he gave her a cheeky smile.
Alexithymiaa: -She stared behind her for a long moment to confirm no one was walking by, slowly turning back to look at his face. "Uhuh... you're lucky there's no one here right now."-
Covet: "I know, I tend to have some pretty good luck." He said like a cocky shit. " But I'm not about to apologize for noticing my future wife's best attributes, getting even more tempting." He told her brazenly.
Alexithymiaa: "You think my boobs are one of my best attributes?" She asked, completely shocked and staring at him through wide surprised eyes.-
Covet: "Yes, third to your eyes and lips, of course. But they're more of a handful now, and I mean that in the best way handful can mean." He said , leaning down to give her a kiss.
Alexithymiaa: "I guess I can accept that. I just never would have guessed. I've never exactly HAD boobs enough to even call an attribute." She said as she leaned in to return his kiss, sliding her hand over his cheek. "But I appreciate the compliment."-
Covet: "You don't have a choice, you have to accept it." He said with a grin, "Well now you can say you do, and you're very welcome."
Alexithymiaa: "Well then I guess it's a good thing I have accepted it. Speaking of which..." She pushed her glasses up her nose, sitting up a bit in his lap. "I went to that emergency appointment I scheduled with Dr. Montgomery, and I think I'm feeling a little bit better."-
Covet: "That's great, I'm glad that she's able to help you. I can see the improvement and I'm really proud of you for it " Felix told her watching her.
Alexithymiaa: -She smiled, glancing down into her lap. "I'm really tired of feeling like my fate and my future is so up in the air because of my health. I want to be better so badly and it means a lot to me that you've been so supportive."-
Covet: "I want you to be better too. and I love you, so of course I'll be here with you every step of the way. You're on the right path." He told her giving her a squeeze.
Alexithymiaa: -She smiled, leaning into his squeeze. "Good, now we just need to make you better too. Have you called to schedule anything yet?"-
Covet: "No but I will tomorrow." He said to her. "I promise, I'll do it while you're there." He added for reassurance.
Alexithymiaa: "Thank you. You need to give yourself plenty of time to heal and do some physical therapy so we can dance at our wedding."-
Covet: "It's my arm that's hurt, not my legs, I'll be fine, I fully intend to dip you at our wedding. Don't you worry." He said to her.
Alexithymiaa: "You dance with your whole body, genius. You can barely even shrug right now. Don't think I dont see you wince every time you do it." she wagged her finger at him. "I am excited though. Dr. Green said I could dance again if I wanted to."-
Covet: "That is fantastic to hear. And Since that is the case, I will make sure I am good and able to spin you about the dance floor." He said biting at her finger.
Alexithymiaa: -She gave it a wiggle at him. "You better." She paused, tipping her head to one side. "Do you think we should like... practice? So we know what we're doing?"-
Covet: "Yeah, I mean, we're both pretty good, at it but if you want to dance together, I'll happily oblige." He said with a smile.
Alexithymiaa: "Well I know that, but I just want our first dance to be perfect. And everyone is going to be staring at us... we can't fuck it up." She leaned in to kiss his cheek before sliding off his lap, handing his computer back to him.-
Covet: "Shh, we won't fuck it up, We'll be fine." He told her, taking his computer back so he could throw it into his backpack.
Alexithymiaa: -She gave him a quick look, crossing her arms over her chest. "Humor me and practice just a little bit to ease my nerves, will ya'?"-
Covet: "Yes, Yes, I will. We will." He told her giving her another kiss as he threw his bag over his shoulder.
Alexithymiaa: "Thank you. I'm already going to be panicking over the possibility of me tripping over my own feet on my way down the aisle. I was talking to Bryan about being nervous for our weddings and when I admitted I was, I had to explain to him that i wasnt nervous to get married, just nervous is falling flat on my face during like the most important moment of my life." She rolled her eyes.-
Covet: Felix laughed, Don't worry our aisle will be short so you won't have to walk long. Plus you'll have all the people that love you around." Felix said offering a hand to her to help her up. "You ready to leave?"
Alexithymiaa: "All the people that love me around... to watch me fall." She corrected with a smirk, taking his hand to stand up. "Mhm, I'm all set. Do you want me to hold that?" She asked, gesturing to his bag.-
Covet: "Nah, I've got it on this arm. It's not too heavy just my laptop in there to make it easier to hold." He told her then put that same arm around her so they could walk out the door.
