Unnamed Girl Recording Studio, 10 am,
Sara had been working on her new album. She had one song finished and ready to go. For the first time since she started her career, she was going to sing a ballad with only an acoustic guitar as instrumentals. The song was a love song, one she spent a few days working on. It was supposed to talk about how you couldn't predict when your one true love would come into your life. It was easier to put on paper than she expected because she genuinely fell in love with Homelander. There was no game with him, no "play pretend", no conditions to this love. Their existence was enough for the both of them which brought a new form of comfort that Sara had never experienced before. The song hinted at past relationships that hurt her, one with someone who was way too much in love with themselves and the other who loved fame more than he loved her. To throw people off the idea that she was talking about Brett and Tara, she wrote the song as if she was directly talking to her exes to avoid mentioning their gender.
That morning, everything seemed to be going alright. The guitarist, Unnamed Girl, the sound mixer, and the producer were the only people in the building. Dotty was handling TV interview deals in her office because she felt she would be more useful there than at the studio. None of them noticed when the Deep entered the place as they were focused on the song being recorded. The producer noticed him and almost gasped as he didn't expect to find a member of the Seven at his Recording Studio on such a random day. The Deep asked him and the sound mixer not to tell a word to Unnamed Girl because he was simply observing her. He wanted to see for himself who she was -and she was quite the looker-. He asked them if they had been visited by a member of the Seven before but they all said no, which was the truth. no one visited them because Unnamed Girl didn't associate with the Seven so why would they? The deep stroked his chin and listened to the song instead "And one day, you fell from the sky and we met in a whirlwind." which made him furrow his brows. Could she be talking about Homelander?
"Do you want to meet her when she's done recording?"
Should he? Ashley had been clear about his mission. He was to investigate, not to be seen, and establish a relationship with her. He already got some information from A-Train, about Unnamed Girl rejecting the seven, meeting with Homelander and him being in a good mood, perhaps the best he'd been in a long time which was suspicious for everyone. Something was brewing but they didn't know what it was and who it was. A-train suspected a relationship between Homelander and Unnamed Girl but he couldn't prove anything. The Deep decided to meet her, well to observe her. She was beautiful, far more than the pictures and videos of her that circulated on the internet. She was gorgeous with her long hair and her black eyes and her outfit complimented well. She stopped singing and chuckled with her guitarist. He couldn't hear what was being said because they spoke quietly but he looked at her face and he saw that she treated that man well.
"No.. no, I just wanted to see where she was working, I heard rumors about an attempt at her security. I came because I wanted to check it out but I can tell that she's safe and you guys are good to go."
"Are you leaving already?"
"I think it's best if she doesn't know I have visited the studio. could you keep it a secret?"
They nodded and he left the room. Sara sighed and ran her hand through her hair. She was satisfied with her session and she sighed in relief. She lifted her head to the tainted glass of the sound mixing room and waved at her producer and sound mixer. They both lifted their thumb to indicate that it was good. She put her hand on her chest and gently tapped her chest with the palm of her hand. It was going to be a good song, she knew it. She was certain of it. She knew that she couldn't be explicit with her relationship, not when both of them weren't ready just yet, but she wanted to sing it to him, to let him know that this was their song, the song she wrote for them because he made her feel that way. Who would have thought? that a superstar like her would fall in love with the most powerful man on Earth? She was in her own bubble and her own cloud and she wanted to share it with him. She was a singer after all, and if anything, she knew how to share her feelings through songs. As she listened to the song, the woman started to hum its tune.
"You came into my life like a wrecking ball,
Breaking all of my strongholds,
knocking down all of my walls.
You came into my life like a wrecking ball,
You stripped me of my fears
And you made me whole.....again."
