*Madison's POV*
"Mads can I talk to you real quick?" Charlie asked me backing away from Belle.
"Yeah sure." I said a bit confused. Everyone was muttering questions.
"Mads... She's... She's my girlfriend." He said looking down.
"Oh. And, you didn't tell me? Seriously!? I-I thought we were better than that. How long?.... How long have you guys been together." I said trying to hide my feelings. Now I can't... I don't have a chance.
"3 months. For 3 months. But, Do you still like me?"
I scoffed "What! No of course not! And you have a GIRLFRIEND you didn't tell me about! And her name is French! What do you call her for nicknames?!" I yelled
"Keep your voice down." Charlie whispered to me moving closer to me. But I stepped back. Why am i 'm making a big deal about this. "Nothing. i don't have any nicknames for her. Listen. I am. sooo sorry! please! I forgot I even knew her!"
Everyone can probably hear us but I didn't care. I let a tear fall down my face. He wiped it. "Please. I'm sorry I didn't tell you."
"You know what?" i breathed in wiping all my tears. "It doesn't matter because we are just friends." I said brushing past him with a small smile.
"Madison..." He said as I walked away. Why did I say that!?
I walked out and a second later so did he.
"Hi Belle! I'm Madison! You can call me Mads tho!" I said with a smile hugging her. Ignoring Charlie then standing in between Jeremy and Owen who could tell I was crying then they both but a arm around me. They just knew I need a hug, not knowing why.
"I am Charlie's girlfriend!" Belle said walking up to Charlie to hug his chest. He was just looking around. Belle let go and looked at Charlie in confusion.
"I'll let you all get to know her." Kenny said walking out.
Owen and Jeremy held me tighter after hearing her saying 'his girlfriend'. But I acted strong. One of the best things of being an actress is being able to act like im fine. We all got to get to know her. But then she pulled Charlie into another room.
*Charlie's POV*
"what" I said looking around.
"Baby." Belle furrowed her eye brows. "Babe. Aren't you happy to see me?" She asked searching for my eyes. I should have told her. I should have...
"Huh? Oh um yeah."
"Your distracted. By the girl you sang with? Then you talked to her. Alone."
"What? No. We- we're just friends." said looking sad, but thankfully she didn't notice.
"You haven't hugged back or given me a kiss since I got here." She still looked for my eyes. I finally looked at her.
I hugged her. But it pained me. I didn't know why.
*Madison's POV*
Why wouldn't he tell me about this? I can't do this. Not right now. Then I saw Charlie and Belle walk off together.
"Hey guys. I'm gonna go."
"Whoa Whoa whoa whoa whoa. Where do you want me to tell Charlie you going." Jayda asked me. I didn't answer.
"Tell him I'm going to make a sandwich of my own with out him. But, we can still make snadwich's together. Just not right now. "
"Um okay. Anything else?"
"Oh and his girlfriend's nice." I knew that would hurt him a bit. If i was sad and showed him. He would know that I liked him. If I ACTED happy for him. It probably make him happy knowing I'm okay with it.
I left. I couldn't. I couldn't do it. Watch him and Belle be together. I'm still going to talk to him. I won't ghost him, because that would make me think of him 24/7 where as if I talked to him I might be able to get over my feelings. I know that I have thought this before, but I hope I get through this.
*No One's POV*
After Julie left and Charlie and Belle hugged then rejoined the group.
"Hey! Where's Ma Reine?" Charlie asked Jayda. She was the first to find out about there little nicknames.
"She said she was going to go make a sandwich? And one without you. And that you guys can still make sandwiches together, but not right now. She needs some space right now. Don't worry."Jayda didn't know what sandwiches meant.
"Oh. Ok." Charlie said looking down.
"Char! Um maybe I can come over tonight to your place? So I can check it out." Belle said.
"Uh. No sorry. I have early morning rehearsal and it's getting late. Savannah will show you your apartment room." Charlie said not wanting Belle to ever step foot in his apartment. He didn't hate her, he just wanted that to be his sanctuary to be able to escape.
*Madison's POV*
I locked the door to the studio where Charlie and I make songs. I started to cry and throw paper around. Why! I thought.
Then the door opened 10 minutes later.
"I thought I locked it" I said not knowing who it was.
"Hey..." said a familiar voice that sent chills down my spine. I turned quickly. Al.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!" I yelled
"I would lower your voice down if I were you." He said walking over closer, and closer. And closer.
"If Charlie or Jeremy or Owen find out.." I said hoping he would be scared.
"Yeah well... They WON't find out. Because you wouldn't want them to look at you differently. Would you?"
I started to let tears fall.
"Stay. Away." I said angerly.
"If you touch me..." I just have to stall... Hopefully someone heard me. Just stall.
"What?! No one will save you..." he said locking the door. Then walking up to touch my waist. I clench my fist.
There was a knock on the door. I couldn't open it. I was trapped in a corner. I tried to hit him really hard. But Al got ropes and started to tie me and duct taped my mouth. It's okay. I thought. Whoever it is will save me in time.
The nob jiggled.
"Mads, can you open the door? it's okay. It's Charlie."
I start crying at his voice. Charlie.
"Your little Princess can't talk at the moment." Al said teasingly thru the locked door.
