This is it (Camila/You) EDITING

Your POV

I woke up the next morning to the sound of dishes being put away in the kitchen.

I rolled over to shove my face back into my pillow but ended up rolling into a pile of papers.

"Oh shit," I said to myself as I realized that it was the copy of my contract, and quickly remembered that today was the day I would sign the real thing.

I jumped out of bed and walked into the kitchen to find Y/b/f loading dishes into the dish washer.

"The beast has awoken," he joked.

"Ha ha. What time is it?" I asked him with a glare.

"Nine. Simon said we could go in whenever you're ready. We just need to call ahead of time to let him know we're on the way," he answered my unasked question.

"Alright. I'm gonna go take a shower and then we can eat and head over there," I told him as I made my way back to my room.

I took a quick shower, allowing myself to relax under the hot stream of water.

When I was finished I got dressed into a decent outfit because I knew we would be taking pictures after I signed. Y/b/f and I soon made our way out of the apartment building and decided to get some breakfast at a Dunkin' that wasn't too far away.

After eating, we called Simon to let him know we would be coming in around eleven. An Uber took us to Syco and soon after we were walking into the building.

We were greeted by the same woman we saw at the front desk yesterday, only today she told us we could go straight up to the third floor to meet with Simon. Once we got to the third floor we made our way to the same office as yesterday.

My nerves were flaring and my adrenaline was kicking in as we made our way down the hallway. I froze in front of the door clutching my iPhone in my hands so tightly I thought the screen would shatter.

It's not that I was scared. Hell, I've been waiting for this moment for what seems like my entire life, but the mere thought that one signature could shape my entire future was making me see stars.

Y/b/f put a hand on my shoulder, causing me to meet his gaze. The moment I saw the look on his face I knew this was the right decision. He looked so confident, like he could see the future through a crystal ball and knew that everything would be okay.

That gave me the courage to knock on the door we've now been standing in front of for almost five minutes.

Damn, everyone in this office must think we're lunatics.

We heard a faint "come in" and Y/b/f opened the door. I followed behind quickly before my nerves had a chance to flare up again.

We walked in the office to find a busy looking Simon flipping through papers, seemingly trying to find something and not yet bothering to look up to see who entered the office.

Once he did his face immediately lit up, which reassured me a little bit.

"Y/n! Nice to see you and your friend again. I assume you've made your decision," Simon asked in a hopeful tone.

"I have," I answered. "I'm going to sign with your label."

Once those words left my lips I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders.

"That's great! I see so much potential in you. I'm going to call in my assistant to bring your contract and we'll briefly discuss it one more time before you sign."

It didn't take long before a woman walked in carrying some papers, which I assumed was the contract. As promised, we discussed it once more before he handed me a pen and I signed in every spot they told me to.

I could see Y/b/f snapping a few pictures here and there but I didn't mind.

Once everything was said and done Simon asked to take a picture so the label could announce my signing. I was ecstatic, and honestly could not think straight at the moment because I was so excited.

Once we had finished with all the picture taking and announcements, Simon told us to go celebrate and he'd call for me in a few days to come in and discuss planning for how I'm going to start with the recording, promotion, and all that jazz.

We thanked everyone and bid our goodbyes before deciding to just go back to the apartment and order pizza. Neither me nor Y/b/f liked making huge deals out of things, so that would be enough of a celebration.

We also decided to stay off of social media for a while because both of our phones had been blown up enough during the past hour and a half.

My fans were more excited than ever that I had finally decided to take this huge step in my career; and ever since Simon announced that he had signed me I had gotten more congratulations than I could count.

I had celebrities that I didn't even know of congratulating me on being signed.

Once we made it back to the apartment we ordered pizza and blasted music through the surround sound speakers in the apartment.

We invited a few friends over to help liven the place up a bit. We called it quits at around 2:30 am and when the music shut off I could've sworn I heard a faint "finally" through the wall, compliments of the next door neighbors.

Once I had said goodbye to everyone, the apartment was empty except of Y/b/f and I once again.

Speaking of Y/b/f, where is he?

I checked the kitchen and his room before finding him sitting on the balcony, overlooking the city scape.

I walked out to join him and we sat in silence for what felt like forever before he spoke up.

"I'm proud of you, you know? That might sound a little weird coming from me, but I've watched you grow so much and I can't help it."

I looked over to him and he hadn't taken his gaze off of the view.

"Thank you. That means a lot, and as much as I joke about hating you, that couldn't be further from the truth. You're like my brother. I couldn't see myself getting this far without having you here to help me through it all," I told him as I turned back to face the view.

After we exchanged those words we sat in silence for a while. It wasn't an awkward silence though, it was comfortable.

We walked back in after a while and went to our separate bedrooms after exchanging goodnights.

Sleep almost immediately overtook me when I crashed into my bed.

For the first time in a long time, I felt bliss.
