A/N: I wrote this last night and I'm at work right now. Ya'll I love my job but I need some damn help.

***

"You ready?" Finneas asks as my phone begins to ring.

"Hell fucking no but it's ringing so yes," I breathe out, pressing the green answer button and putting it on speakerphone.

"Hello, this is Carter," I answer, trying to sound as professional as possible.

"Hi, Carter! It's great to finally be able to speak to you. Is Finneas in the room with you?"

"Yeah he is, you're on speakerphone."

"Perfect. I have listened to the two tracks Finneas sent me and I would love to have you work with us here at Interscope Records. I am currently in New York but I feel that speaking to you in person would be beneficial as I would love for you to sign a contract with us. Would you be willing to come to New York to discuss this further? Obviously, all costs of flying out here would be covered by us."

I look up at Finn with wide eyes, a hand over my mouth. I was not expecting all of this. Holy fuck!

"Y-yes of course. When?"

"Tomorrow, for five nights. I know it's short notice."

I'm still watching Finneas and he nods, encouraging me to go.

"Yes, that works perfectly."

"Great. I will e-mail you everything you'll need. Looking forward to meeting you!"

"Me too. Thank you." I end the call before letting out a squeal, running into Finneas' arms. "Congrats Carter!" He exclaims.

"I have to go tell Billie!" I let out before sprinting up the stairs. When walking into the kitchen I see Hazelee sitting on the countertops flour all over the three of their faces as Claudia puts something in the oven and Billie attempts to clean up the counters with a giggling Hazelee.

"Car-Car!" Hazelee exclaims once seeing me.

"Hi baby, are you having fun?"

"I am!" Billie answers.

"Not you dumbass," I send her a playful glare, picking up Hazelee.

"How'd it go?" Claudia asks.

"I'm going to New York tomorrow."

"What? Really? Why?"

"One question at a time there Bil," I chuckle. "Ryan is currently in New York and wants to speak to me about signing a contract."

"OH MY GOD!" Billie shouts, practically knocking Hazelee and me over in a hug, making both of us giggle.

"Congratulations Carter!" Claudia exclaims.

"Thank you," I pout at how happy I am. None of this would have been possible without these people.

Just then Finneas walks up the stairs, Hazelee making grabby hands at him and he takes her from me. "I will need a babysitter," I purse my lips, looking between Finn and Claudia.

"Of course! The beds already set up," Finneas smiled.

"I hope this works out," I add.

"It will," Billie smiles, placing a sweet kiss onto my cheek making me blush.

After eating dinner and letting Hazelee play with Finneas and Claudia for a little longer I decide it's time to head home. Though it was hard to leave. Billie begged for a million kisses and pulled me upstairs into the bathroom to have a heated make-out session. Once that was over I promised Billie I would text her every night when I was gone.

Once Hazelee was in bed and sleeping peacefully, my brain decided to spin in circles. What if they change their mind? What if the plane crashes? I'm not good enough. You can't even sing.

A Snapchat notification snaps me out of my racing thoughts and I see it's from Billie.

I'm aware

babyyyyy

What?

i miss you already :'(

Bil it's been an hour

and?

Am I really good enough for this? I'm terrified.

I see her read it and then her bitmoji disappears making me frown but before I can think twice about it, there's an incoming FaceTime call from Billie.

"Baby, don't doubt yourself. You deserve this, you are good enough for this, you have a beautiful voice and you-"

"Okay, okay stop," I interrupt her.

"What? It's all true!"

"Does your period usually come late?" I ask, changing the subject.

"It happens every once in a while," she shrugs.

"Have you ever had a pregnancy scare?" I question just as a text from Hailey comes through.

"A few times," she answers. "Come back to facetime, I want to see your beautiful face."

"Hang on, I got a text from Hailey." I quickly read it, "Aww. She wants to text you but she's too nervous," I tell Billie, going back to the facetime.

"What's her number? I'll text her."

"I'll send it to you, one sec," I send Billie her number and I see her type a few things before we are both back on the call.

Billie looks at me with a smirk on her face. "What?" I question.

"You're just so beautiful and I'm so proud of you."

"Aight, I'm going to sleep," I wave.

"Nooooooooo," Billie pouts like a child. Actually, now that I think about it, she sounds just like Hazelee.

"I'm kidding, honestly I don't think I'll sleep at all tonight."

"Why not?" She pouts.

"I'm so fucking nervous."

"Did Ryan send you all the info and confirmations?"

"Yeah, he's even got a driver picking me up from Finn and Claudia's tomorrow when I drop Hazelee off. Oh also, please tell me you'll go visit her. She loves you so much."

"I don't think I could even go five days without seeing her," Billie chuckles. "It's getting late. How can I help you sleep, babe?"

"Sing for me?" I beg with puppy dog eyes.

"Anything for you my love."

And just like that my eyes feel heavy and I fall asleep to my girlfriend's angelic voice.
