"SHIT!" Jocelynn yelled as she jumped to sit up in her bed. Looking at the alarm clock that so abruptly
awoke her, she turned it off and rested her head in her hands. "It's 5:30 already? God shoot me!"
Jocelynn got up out of her king sized bed and pulled the sheets back into place. Feeling like she just was ran over by a bus,
she walked out of her room and down the hall to the other bedroom in her small 2-bedroom apartment. Slowly opening the door
she peaked in on the lil blonde haired 3-year-old who was asleep in his bed. Slowly she closed the door back up and walked
back to her room into her bathroom to take a shower.
The hot water ran down the front of her body as she started waking up. Even though everyone likes hot showers
the way Jocelynn goes about it you would think she couldn't feel heat. As her body would adjust to the water she would lightly
turn the hot water a lil higher till she felt all the tension drain from her body. Stepping out of her shower and wrapping
her body and her long dark auburn hair in a towel she looked at the calender that she had hanging up next to the mirror. Scanning
the events and meetings for the day ahead she walked out of her bathroom into her bedroom. Turning on the stereo by the TV
and making sure it was not load enough to wake the lil child that was still asleep.
Opening the closet she looked over her clothing and chose a sage colored pancho, a pair of black slacks
and a black tank top to wear under the pancho. After she got dressed and did her hair and make up she walked out the room.
She went up to the room that the lil child was sleeping in and knocks on the door.
"Drogyn, it's 6:45. Time to get up and start getting ready." She said as she walked away from the room into
the kitchen. After heating up some french toast that she had made the day before and some coffe for herself, she went back
to Drogyn's room and walks right in.
Drogyn looked up at his mother and grouched. "I don't wanna. Why do I have to get up so early Mama?"
The little child asked.
"Because I am goin' to take you to school, and then you are going to get picked up by your dad so that you
can spent the whole week with him." Jocelynn replied to her son as she smiled and brushed his hair from his face.
"Ok, I up. Got to get ready to see dadda!" Drogyn smiled and cheered.
Drogyn jumped up out of bed at the idea of going to see his father again. After getting him dressed and
into the kitchen, Jocelynn sat across from him and he ate his breakfast. As she sipped her coffee Jocelynn thought about how
much her son looked like her ex-husband. Drogyn just turned 3 the week prior and other then his blonde hair and blue eyes
he was and exact repilca of Joseph. Drogyn got the hair and eyes from Joseph's mother.
Jocelynn and Joseph's divorce was finalized about 5 months ago. After being together 5 and a half years
and married almost 3 years of it, they were still able to get along for thier son's sake. After shortly before Drogyn's 2nd
birthday they had all moved to Wyoming to be near Joseph's mother. But after a few months he came to her offering to get a
divorce. They both knew the marriage was doomed from the start but tried to make a go of it. During the divorce Jocelynn moved
out with Drogyn into an aparment. Jocelynn and Joseph had decided that joint custody would be the best choice for Drogyn.
So Joseph would have him every other week since they both lived in Rock Springs and Drogyn could still attend the 3-year old
preschool classes he was signed up for.
Jocelynn was going to ask Joseph if he would mind watching her apartment and grabbing her mail for a few
days during her birthday 5 weeks later. Since Drogyn would be with him anyway since Jocelynn was going to go to L.A. to visit
some friends who had moved there and celebrate her 22nd birthday. It was hard for many people to believe that the 21 year
old was already a mother to a 3 year old and divorced. But Jocelynn was always used to people thinking that she was different.
"Mommy? Can I take Buddy to Daddy's?" Drogyn asked looking at her.
"No, I don't think so. Your Dad is allergic to cats. Buddy will make him sick if he goes over there." Jocelynn
laughed. "Now lets get your coat on and I will take you to school."
Once Drogyn finished eating Jocelynn helped him with his coat and his little backpack and loaded him into
her car. Even in the the first week of May is was still a little cold in Wyoming. but Jocelynn rarely wore a coat. She always
kept spare blankets in her 2001 Grand Am in case of emergancies. But she was just comforatable in a fleece sweater in the
cold.
After dropping Drogyn off at school, and after reasuring him she would call him every night before he would
go to sleep, she drove her way to work. For the past year she had been employed by a recording studio where she would do the
paper work, schedualling for studio time and often help the producers out with anything. In the short time she had been there
she had managed to build a reputation for having quiet a nack in helping writters block and once had the oppertunity to work
with Max Martin, who owned the building, on a song for a up and coming artist. And in the past year they had become close
friends.
Stepping into her office, she sat at her desk reading the schedual for today. All of the studios were booked.
Looking carefully she noticed that Max had 2 studios booked out with no artists named. Thinking that Max was just dinking
around with new stuff in the studios, Jocelynn decided to go visit her friend and see how he was. She walked out of the room
and took the elevator up to the 3rd floor of the building then went to the studios that were check out by him. She hit the
button that would blink a green light in the studio to let him know someone was outside the door with out interupting any
recordings.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"It's open!" called out Max as he hit the pause button on the recording. "That was great man, just take
a break for a second." he said to the two guys in the booth.
"Hey Joce, what up? Isn't it a little early for you to be here already"
"Hey Max. And nope this is my normal time. I just dropped Drogyn off at school and came right over." Jocelynn
replied smiling at her friend. "So what are you working on that is so big that you needed 2 studios for today?"
"Ha ha ha, just the usual." he replied nodding his head toward the booth.
Without looking at the booth Jocelynn smiled and said, "Well then I will let you go. I have back to my office
and get some things cleared up so i can go on my vacation next month."
"That is cool, just stop by later so I can use that mind of yours to help spice up a song that an artist
wants to set as a duet single."
"Anytime Max!" She smiled as she walked out of the room and went about the work for that Friday.
Max turned back in his chair to talk to the two gentlemen in the booth. "Sorry about the delay boys. That
was my head assistant and my personal muse."
"I'd like her to be my muse." The blonde male said while laughing.
The other guy just stared at the door.
"Hey, Bone! Wake up man!" The blonde called out to the other guy. "Earth to BONE!"
Shaking his head, "Bone" looked back at his friend. "Sorry about that, Nick. Hey Max who was that girl?"
"That was Jocelynn. She is my head assistant... and the one I turned to when I need an opinion on a song. That
girl has a knack for firguring out what a song needs. Why do you ask?" Max answered
"No reason. Just asking." Bone replied. "Lets just figure this track out."
"Yeah, speaking of which Max, have you found who you want to do the female part for the new version of this
song?" Nick asked as he took off the head phones and walked out of the booth to sit on the couch behind.
"I have a few ideas. I know who would be perfect for it, her voice would go great with AJ's. Since he has
a raspy voice we cannot use a 'sweet heart' voice with it. We need a girl who's voice will be as well raunchy as HIS" Max
said as he pointed at Bone.
"Really, so who is the girl? And why haven't we meet her or worked with her on the track yet?" AJ asked
as he came into the main studio.
"Oh you have met her, just not offically" Max replied as he hit the 'play' button "You will however once
I talk her into it."
"Well hurry up man." Nick said as they listened to the lyrics they just recorded.
