《Drugs You Should Try It》Chapter Five
Advertisement
Zephyr aimed her camera towards the boys to capture the moment of them working on their music. Jacques was messing around with the dials making the bass fluctuate with the beat of the new song. She turned the lens to focus on Jacques's fingers as they worked effortlessly over the panel of dials as if they were programmed to do so, it almost seem robotic. That's how it usually was when Jacques was in studio as Zephyr observed from few times she sat in on their studio sessions. Jacques became almost robotic. To Zephyr it was quite an experience being in the studio with Webster she loved how when he walked through that threshold he became one with his gift like a robot who ran off the love and admiration of music. She was damn near in love with Jacques entire being.
" Zephyr come here. " Jacques called over his shoulder as he continued to adjust the bass on his current master piece. He just couldn't get it quite right something sounded off but he just couldn't lay his finger on it.
Zephyr shook her head slightly moving herself from her thoughts as she proceeded to get up from her spot on the all too comfortable leather couch in the back of the studio. Walking up to Jacques side she put her small hand on his shoulder. Jacques looked up at her and he smiled slightly at her.
" Here sit down and listen to this tell me what you think. " Jacques took the beats from around his neck handing them to his best friend as she took a seat on his lap. He watched as she adjusted the headphones around her mane of curls to fit comfortably. She tapped his knee to give him the okay to start the song and Jacques did as he was told. Sitting back against the reclining chair Jacques rested one of his arms around her waist and the other was propped on the arm of the chair as he played with his braids patiently waiting to hear the opinion of his best friend.

Jacques knew that when it came to music and he was stuck he could rely on Z to give her most honest opinion. And as the saying goes a woman's intuition is always right and Zephyr was almost never wrong.
" The instrumental and vocals are fine as they are but I do think there should be a someone speaking in the end. I don't know like a conversation. You could imitate your parents or some shit some clever shit. Imitate your father yelling at you about how loud your music is over his it would be a good cut away to add to the end of the song. " Zephyr said as she took the headphones from around her head placing them around her neck comfortably.
Z realized that Jacques had one of his arms wrapped around her waist and she started to get nervous her cheeks started to warm as she looked down fidgeting with her fingers. Jacques noticed Zephyr getting nervous as he took in her appearance it only made him want to hold the beauty a little longer.
" Tell me again why you never picked up music Z your mind is brilliant my dear friend brilliant. "
" You know I'm a visual artist Baby Jacques you're responsible for the sound buddy. "
" This is true, I'll be my old man and you could be the vocals for my moms. " Jacques suggested as continued to play with his braids.
" Deal. " Zephyr held out her pinky and Jacques wrapped his pinky around her smaller one locking them together.
" Birds ? "
" Birds. " Jacques pulled their hands to him and kissed his link to hers. Zephyr smiled and mirrored his actions.
The small group of friends didn't leave the studio until 1am the next morning and tiredness lingered in the air like a plague. Jacques had to carry Z out to the Jeep because she fell asleep shortly after helping put the finishing touches on the now complete song. When he tried to wake her before they left he was met with a pillow thrown at his face and a train of curses. As much as he wanted to laugh at his friend he knew she wouldn't be getting up from the couch unless someone carried her and that's what it came to.

Jacques was now pulling on to the highway which wasn't as occupied as he thought. It was a Thursday night in Houston so he figured it'll be like this but dare not try to drive this late at night on a Friday. Glancing over at his best friend he saw her adjusting her head against the window and sigh of comfort escaped her lips as she did so.
A few moments later Jacques pulled up to Zephyr's loft located a couple of blocks outside the city. Reaching to the passenger side he reached over and dug around her backpack until he pulled the keys out. Quickly making a trip up the stairs after locking the car making sure Zephyr was safe he unlocked her door and put the keys into his pocket making his way back down stairs to retrieve his sleeping beauty.
" Come on Z let's go, we're home. " Jacques said as he grabbed her backpack and threw it over his shoulder. Reaching in the Jeep he picked up Zephyr bridal style carrying her to her apartment. With Z half conscious Jacques was careful helping her take her clothes off and made sure to keep a watch on her as she took a quick shower so she wouldn't injure herself. He knew his friend was prone to injuries when she was in a sleepy state as such.
" Here put this on Z." He grabbed her oversized Guns n Roses and handed it to her. Jacques made his way to the bathroom after he tucked Zephyr in comfortably and handled his hygiene before getting into bed with Z.
Although slightly unconscious from the heavy tiredness Zephyr was still aware that her best friend had gotten in the bed with her. She hated when he did this. Every time Jacques came over he stayed on his side of the bed like some idiot. Letting go of a sigh she scooted over to Jacques and tangled their bodies together with her head laying comfortably on his chest.
" Birds, Baby Jacques ? "
Jacques looked down at his best friend laying on his chest and smiled nodding his head. Placing a gentle kiss to her forehead Jacques tried to pull her closer to him.
" Birds. "

School-life & Swordfights: A Clubs and Stubs Tale
Warning: Clubs and Stubs contains strong language and situations throughout that may not be suitable for younger readers. "This story takes place in a fantasy world with a modernish setting. It mainly follows four students of Hardires High School who are members of one of the greatest Team Arena Squads in the history of gladiatorial school athletics. Already two-time high-school world champions, they have entered their fourth and final year of high school in hopes of capturing a third straight world championship—something that no other school on the continent has accomplished. As they prepare for an upcoming match with a rival school, it becomes evident that keeping their two-and-a-half-year winning streak alive will be tougher than expected. As both personal and external problems abound for the student-gladiators, can they manage to keep it together under the constant pressure of being the perfect fighting unit? A blend of action, drama, adventure, and humor collide in this brand-new series!" Thanks so much for checking out my story! This is the first time that I've released any of my work to a public space so any feedback, be it positive or negative (but please be respectful if so) would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping that this story is only the beginning of a long-running series of short stories set in the Clubs and Stubs universe. Temporary Book Cover Design by David Watson The release schedule is rather tentative, but the goal is to release a chapter every 2-4 days. I want to make sure that every scene is the best it can be before it’s released, so it may take a bit longer especially if it's a longer chapter. However, no chapter should take more than a week to be released. Each scene varies in length, but are usually between 1,000 to 2,000 words.
