Epilogue
-Kind of short epilogue-
Autumn's point of view
"We did it!" Ashton yelled and Michael cheered. I smiled at the two while Calum and Luke cheered and danced around. "Our album is number one in so many countries!"
"That's amazing." I said and chuckled. Calum looked at me and then pulled me into a hug. "I'm so proud of you guys."
"Thank you so much. You're the best baby. Calum said and have me a kiss. "The fans love your songs."
"I didn't do it all by myself." I said and smiled. "You have John, Joel, Alex, Benji, Michael, Ashton, Luke, yourself, and so many other people who helped." I told him.
"But you did the most, especially on the songs that help connect to the darker side of everyone and life. We really needed to acknowledge these problems and you helped us do that." He told me and I smiled.
"I guess I did." I told him and my phone rang. I picked it up and then Ashton pulled me into a huge hug aswell. "Hello?" I gasped out because my bones were currently being crushed.
"Hi, this is Bradley." I heard a British voice say and I hummed. "I'm in a band and I saw that you helped the band 5 Seconds of Summer on their new album, which is amazing."
"Thank you so much. May I ask, how did you get my number?" I asked, confused as to why he's calling me about an album that came out like last week.
It's not even my album. He's not even a friend. What the hell is going on?
"I got it from Taylor, you know her right? She said she's a really close friend. She told me you'd help us out I'm with our next album Wake Up." He told me and I looked at Taylor.
"I'm not a professional song writer Bradley, I'm sorry. I'm just a friend of the guys who dabbles in writing." I told him as everyone quieted.
"Oh. Uh, would you still help us though? It's alright if you can't, I understand. I mean, you wrote The Story of Another Us and Broken Home and Invisible and so many other songs off that album, and they're pretty epic. I just uh, I thought maybe you could help us because we need a little bit of that slow, meaningful vibe." He said and and I stood up straighter.
"What is the theme of the album?" I asked because usually every album has a theme to it. Sounds Good Feels Good had a theme; everything is going to be okay, regardless of your troubles, and you deserve to have fun and let loose.
"The theme? We have two songs only at the moment and they both regard not being able to see the love that's right in front of you." He said and the band all looked at me.
"Yeah, yeah um, I can help you. Where do you want to meet up at? I'm currently in LA to celebrate Sounds Good Feels Good hitting number one." I told him ad I looked at the floor, slightly overwhelmed.
"Great! I'm in LA too!" He said and laughed. "Is Monday okay? We're free and could go get coffee and start writing in the studio." He asked and I nodded.
"Yes, of course. Where would you like to meet up at?" I asked and he gave me an address. "That's not too far away, I'll see you then. Have a nice day."
"You too, thanks a lot." He said and then hung up. I turned my phone off and then out it in my pocket.
"Who called?"
"A guy named Bradley and he's in a band." I said as I looked at Taylor. "Heard of him?"
"He's in the band The Vamps. Yeah." She said and I rose an eyebrow. "You're an amazing songwriter and you need a job so I thought, maybe this is good. You can help various artists write their albums artists make money like that."
"Oh woah, you gave her a job without her knowing? To a band that isn't us? She's our secret weapon." Michael told Taylor and I laughed.
"Bradley is a friend of mine Michael, you know that. My dad signed his band." She said and he nodded. "He asked about a song writer and Autumn came to mind so I told him to call her. It's not like I set up an appointment without her knowing."
"Is this what you want to do? Help people write kick ass songs?" Ashton asked and I thought about it.
"Yeah, that sounds like a lot of fun and if you guys say I'm good at it, why not?" I said and smiled. "Thank you Taylor, you're amazing."
"I know." She said and I rolled my eyes. "So, the album is number one and Autumn is a songwriter now! Let's celebrate-"
"Wait, my phone is ringing, hold the Celebration a little longer." I said and then picked it up again. "Hello?"
"Hey Autumn, we need help pronto." I heard Rena's voice and I looked at Taylor. "We need to get an album out and Casey won't do shit."
"Why is the lead singer of Hey Violet asking for my help for their album?" I asked Taylor after I covered the speaker.
"Oops." Ashton said and chuckled. "I told them that you helped write our album and they said they were gonna hit you up when they needed help." He told me.
"Ah," I said and removed my hand. "Hey Rena, I'd love to help. When is it?" I asked them.
"Tomorrow if you can?"
"I may be hungover but that sounds perfect. Stop by the guys' house and we'll leave from here." I said and smiled. "Besides, I have my best ideas when I'm either drunk or hung over."
"You're a life saver. Thank you so much babe." She said and I laughed. "Bye Autumn. Tell the guys I said hi."
"Will do." I said and smiled. "Bye." I said and she hung up.
"So?"
"I'm busy tomorrow, and then Monday, and will be on and off depending on if they still need my help." I said and smiled. "Also, Rena says hi."
"Are we going yo celebrate or do you have another call to take?" Michael asked and I nodded. "Come on, you never gave me my hug."
"Thank you so much for helping us write such an amazing album. The fans love it and so do we." He told me and I nodded.
"Also, you're gonna be such a huge name in the music industry if you can write this well and help people write their albums. Everyone will want your help." He told me and I laughed.
"I'll never be too busy to help you guys." I said and he nodded. I gave Luke a hug and he chuckled.
"You're the best. We made number one for a whole week, almost two, because of you." He told me and I nodded. "Want a beer?"
"Hell yeah. What kind of a question is that Hemmings?" I said and nodded. I heard one being open and I took the can from Ashton. "Let's do this. Sounds Good Feels Good hit number one!" I shouted and they all cheered with me.
"Fuck yeah!" Taylor yelled and my phone went off again. "Don't answer it, call them back later."
"Autumn is gonna be a kickass songwriter for a whole bunch of people. You know how big you'll become?" Calum said and I smiled.
"I don't really care honestly. This isn't my success, it's your guys' so let's stop talking about me." I said and he nodded. "Come here, give me a kiss."
"Ashton, I want a kiss."
"Taylor, come here baby."
We all went in for our kisses and I chuckled. "You'll get more later." Calum whispered to me and I laughed.
"I think we all are going to baby." I told him and he nodded. "I'm so proud of you. You're so amazing, not to mention under appreciated for those bass riffs you played. They were amazing."
"Thank you." He said and my phone rang again. I sighed and then took it. I turned it off and tossed it on the couch, laughing as it fell on the floor after.
"Now, where were we?" I asked him and he pulled me to him, pressing his lips against mine.
"We're both about to hit it big time babe." He told me and I chuckled. "And we'd be nowhere without one another."
"Without any of us, we'd be nowhere." Ashton said and I smiled. "Cheers for our friendship. Without one another, none of us would be anywhere."
"God bless your parents," Luke said as he looked at me and Ashton. "If that condom didn't break, we wouldn't have either of you."
"Ew." I said and drank some of my beer. "Don't talk about our parents having sex, that's disgusting." I said and Ashton agreed.
"The mere thought is scarring." Michael said and shuddered as we laughed.
"Why are you even thinking about it!" Taylor's yelled as she laughed at him, pushing him slightly.
"Luke brought it up!"
"Alright, alright, count of three we all clink our beer cans together and cheer." Calum said and we nodded. "One, two three."
We all raised our cans and I giggled lightly as they all clinked. I drank my quickly and then looked at them. "Let's celebrate. Turn the album up." I said and Ashton did.
"Hey everybody!" We yelled and I smiled as Ashton pulled me away from Calum. Calum didn't mind much, he just walked over to Michael and started a conversation.
"Give me a hug." He said and I did. He rubbed my back and I chuckled. "I'm so fucking thankful for Taylor bringing you back to me, I'll never let you leave again okay? You're my baby sister still, it's my job to protect you. It always will be "
"That's good because I don't want to leave." I said and he chuckled. "I have all I ever wanted right here; my boyfriend, my best friends, and my brother. It's perfect. I wouldn't give it up for anything."
"Glad to hear." He said and I smiled.
