Sing Me A Lie (Open, Mature)

Softly strumming her fingers across the cords of her guitar, she hummed in silence. She stared out her terrace down at the courtyard below. Soon she was no longer alone. Matthew stood in the doorway and cleared his throat. Suddenly, the vibrant young adult turned to face him. She gave him a slight smile, stood up, and proceeded towards him. "What is it no Matty?" she asked playfully. He smiled at her and then crossed his arms, "you know you are supposed to be practicing right now..."

Before he could continue his sentence, his phone rang. "Hold on a tick love" he said as he answered it. He continued to talk and nod his head from time to time. As he hung up the phone he stared at the beautiful girl before him as she practiced her guitar playing a peaceful melody. "Chey, we gotta go now."

Cheyanne looked up at Matthew and then gave him a confused expression on her face. "Where Matthew?" she asked with a questioning tone. She always used this tone when she didn't agree with things. He sat her down and explained how her career was just beginning and needed to get her name out there. Why not team up with Lomasi? She has amazing talent and the two of them would make a beautiful duo. Cheyanne hated the idea, but Matthew had never lead her wrong, so she cooperated with her agent. She followed him down to the car and drove over to Lomasi's company building.

As Cheyanne stepped out of the car, she looked up at the building and sighed. 'Everything will be alright,' she thought to herself. She followed Matthew in and then talked with a secretary. They were soon led to the seating room and sat quietly, whispering random things to each other.

After a while they were called into the office. As Cheyanne entered the room, she looked around. She glanced at the old man and smiled and then her eyes fell on Lomasi. She was very beautiful. Cheyanne had never been attracted to a female before, so this feeling was strange, foreign. Cheyanne walked up to Lomasi and held out her hand with a smile.

"I am Cheyanne. It is a pleasure to meet you Lomasi."

Cheyanne smiled as she was pulled away from the males. Although Matthew had been her long time friend and manager, she always felt safer with females. She stared at Lomasi or Leiko as she was told to call her new "partner". She thought on the subject for a moment and then smiled happily. "I could hardly care less how things are called. I am so honored to be able to work with someone so talented as you are. I need to get my name out there and you are the best way to do that. You were my inspiration to join the music business. I have memorized most of your songs and I look towards them for inspiration, how you connect with your audience and just make everything feel like the world is perfect. I love that and I just want to try or even attempt to make music as wonderfully as you do."

After saying all that to Leiko, she kinda sunk backwards in shock that she revealed her feelings after just moments of meeting this girl. She was embarrassed and she had nobody to blame but herself. She stared down at her feet and gave an awkward smile, as she had always done.

"Cute. Were you told to say that?" Lomasi asked, arching her eye brow. Her skepticism wasn't meant to be cruel towards Cheyanne, but she had had so many people lie and deceive her that she didn't want to trust anyone. However, seeing Cheyanne's body language, she was easily convinced that the brunette meant it. That was her biggest flaw: she was too willing to believe just about anyone. Even when she was betrayed, she still wanted to hope that they weren't lying. Her distrust was just a front and a facade that was all too easily crumbled.

Gently, she touched Cheyanne's cheek and muttered, "That was bitchy of me. Sorry." Her fingers were gentle against the other girl's cheek as she admired the beautiful teal eyes. Realizing what she was doing, she jerked her hand away sharply, as if she had been stung. Shoving her hands in her pockets, she said, "I hope that you mean that, not about me being talented or any of that, but about making wonderful music." Winking playfully, she said, "Because you and I could rock the world if you do."

Tilting her head, she took a step back and started walking again, this time slower. Shoving her cell phone back in her pocket, she told Cheyanne, "Knowing my songs won't help much. I'm not reusing any of that crap. Me and you? We're a clean slate, a band all our own. We're going to write new songs, okay? If we don't come up with anything worth sharing, we can fall back on my crap heap." Chuckling, she added, "Though I must admit, I think it would be fun to sing Blood Moon with such a pretty girl. It would create such a scandal." Smirking cockily, it was hard to tell if she meant it or not. Blood Moon was a popular duet that Lomasi had done when she was starting out. The dance to it was rather extreme and the lyrics were more violent than romantic. It had been Lomasis's original claim to fame. Yet, the guy she had preformed with had been forgotten and fell into the background.
