Surely if that happened it would generate a huge fight between Bill and Tom...

In this chapter...

It was already night, and Anne had left home. I didn't know where she went, but it was too boring being alone. I spent the afternoon researching about the Kaulitz brothers and their upcoming tour, which would happen in less than fifteen days. I was super excited to see it happening.

unknown: hi, is this Ceci?

I receive a message on my phone from an unknown number, I confess I got a little scared because I didn't know who it could be, and I was alone at home.

me: Who's this?

unknown: Your favorite twin?

I smile at his sentence because I know it's Bill, but why was he contacting me? Was I dreaming or something?

me: Who said you're my favorite twin?

unknown: Is there any doubt it's me?

me: Okay, you win

unknown: I knew it, wanna swing by the agency?

As soon as I read his message, I get up immediately and stare at my phone and his message. Was he really inviting me to the agency with him?
Of course, Anne always went to the agency because she is very close to the band and especially to Tom, but now he was inviting me to go there. I quickly head to my wardrobe, grab a coat, and hurry to the agency, I was in such a rush that I even forgot to reply to the poor guy.
As soon as I reach the agency door, I quickly knock, but I realize it's open, so I enter. As I walk in, I close the door and clearly hear music coming from the studio. Therefore, I walk to the studio and see Bill recording a song, I had never heard this song before so clearly it was new, I knew this because I knew all the band's songs by heart. I stand at the door watching the taller one sing and soon smile foolishly watching how talented he was, he didn't even need to try, his voice was like an angel, it warmed my heart and made my stomach full of butterflies...
He was incredible.

— Ceci, hey - He speaks taking me out of the trance still inside the recording booth and I quickly smile looking at him

— Hey - I say shyly and the taller one hugs me and I hug him around the waist, since he was much taller than me

— I'm glad you came, I thought you wouldn't - Bill says looking at me and I was starting to get used to his presence

— I ended up running out of battery halfway here and had to come without warning you - I say smiling weakly looking at the taller one

— It's okay, the important thing is that you came - Bill says and then pulls up a chair - Well, you can sit, I called you here because I'm going to spend the night producing music for our "Humanoid City" tour, and nothing better than a fan to help me with the songs - Bill says as soon as I sit down on the chair and I smile still shyly looking at him

— You want my help? - I ask looking at the taller one who nods

— Of course I do - Bill says sitting next to me

— Bill, I don't know anything about music, how can I help you? - I ask looking at the taller one who smiles sympathetically

— But you understand better than I do what sounds good with my voice and the band's aesthetic, don't you? - Bill says and I nod looking at him - That's why I called you, as I said, there's nothing better than a true fan to help me with this part - Bill says putting his hand on my leg and I widen my eyes looking at his hand, and the only thing I could think was

Bill Kaulitz has his hand on my leg, I repeat Bill Kaulitz has his hand on my leg, can I freak out or faint first?

— Sure, you can always count on me - I say smiling looking at the taller one

— Great, I'm glad to hear that, well - He says getting up and then closes the studio door and sits back down - The song I was singing when you arrived is called "Pain of Love", it's a romantic song with the rustic style of Tokio Hotel's rock, so it will have a lot of impact throughout the performance - Bill says and then grabs a headphone and approaches putting it on my head, as he adjusts the object in its place, I adjust it, then he plays the song and it was really good, I smile looking at him while listening

— Wow... - I say taking off the headphones looking at him - The song is amazing, it fits perfectly with the band - I say looking at the taller one

— Do you think it can be improved? - Bill asks and I nod looking at him

— Well... - I start speaking asking for permission and the taller one nods looking at me - I believe that for the recorded version of the song it's perfect, there's no need to touch anything and it will surely be a tremendous success, but... for the tour, I believe that a solo from the boys will complement it even more, and ending with a guitar solo from Tom, will surely make the girls tremble when they hear it - I say seriously looking at him and I notice the taller one looking at me paying attention to every word

— Wow, that could really be a great idea - Bill says looking at me - Gustav, Tom, and Georg can start the instrument solos together, and then Gustav gives a cue on the drums and then Tom comes in with his solo for about ten seconds and we finish with the keyboard from the first verse - Bill says and I nod looking at him

— Yes, it will be completely perfect I'm sure - I say looking at the taller one who nods

— Let's get to work then - Bill says and we start the production

The production of a song takes hours, and we didn't need all the members present to be able to produce a song together. Bill knew how to use every effect to produce a sound of a different instrument, for example, the sound of the drums he used the keyboard with just a filter for the drums, everything he added and produced he played it again for me in the headphones and I gave my ok as a fan, as soon as the taller one finished the production after about two and a half hours working together he finally has his song ready

— It's done - He says throwing his body back in the chair and then presses the play button

— Let's see - We start listening together and really the part of the solos of the boys was completely insane, I could hardly wait to see this live - Damn Bill this is amazing - I say poking him who then smiles

— We did it Engel - Bill says raising his hand for a high five and I quickly high five him and the taller one holds it looking into my eyes - You were amazing Ceci - Bill says still holding my hand and I smile looking into his eyes

— We were amazing - I say smiling looking into the taller one's eyes
