Mads pov;

" i just don't understand why you went to that party? or any of them" i said to her. "mads, baby, it's so much fun! just dancing around not caring about the world" she told me while daydreaming of the party. i still don't get why people party, it's useless. they stay up all night getting drunk, or high, and sleep up all day. I, on the other hand, need my life according to my plan. finish college and become a nurse, I know lame, but that's what i want to be. i do some song writing here and there, but that's a dream that won't come true. I love music, especially writing them. but sometimes we can't get- "Mads!" nessa said, shoving me. "ow, what was that for" I said, holding my arm. "i've been trying to get your attention" she said laughing at me, " i need you to do a favor for me" " do you need your work done again? sorry but i can't do that because-'' she cut me off. "no no, i need you to take me to jaden's concert tonight!!" she said with the biggest smile on her. I don't understand why people are obsessed with him, don't get me wrong, his music is really good. but he's probably a jerk happy living with all the money and attention. "why? I rather read this new book than hearing ladies say how much they love him" i said rolling my eyes. "please, you need to live life stop hiding it behind a book" she told me, " you're my best friend mads, i want you to make your life remarkable" " i know ness and i appreciate it, but i don't want to listen to girls screaming about how hot jaden is'' I told her walking to my closet.

"Please" she asked me for the millionth time. "Fine, we can go. BUT this is the only damn time I'm going" I said to her while pointing my finger at her.

"Yes, omg, you won't regret mads. you'll have the best time ever" 

best time ever. yeah okay.

After ness stopped begging me to go, I started off to Starbucks. I normally don't drink coffee twice a day, but I have a test coming up and it's been stressful. 

"Yes, I would like the vanilla latte," I  told the worker. I could tell she was having a bad day, or she just has an attitude. I don't know.

"Mads lewis!" She called me to the counter. "Thank you, have a nice day" I told her. While I was walking out of the building, I ran into someone spilling my drink on them. "Watch where you're going" I looked up to see a tall man, did I mention he's like three sizes of me? "S-sorry sir, I was-" "no excuses'' he cut me off. "Micheal came down, she didn't even do anything" a guy said behind him. I don't know who he was but I think the tall dude is scared of him or something because he stopped and moved out of the way. "I'm sorry about him, he's a great guy. I promise" why does that voice sound familiar, I looked up and saw the jaden hossler. "Oh my gosh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you guys. I was just trying to-um." I looked into his eyes. Them eyes. That body. Stop. "You know, if you want an autograph, I would give you one. Just the staring is a little bit creepy" jaden told me. "No, I don't need or want one. I was just shock to see you here." I told him to fix my shirt, "and you have pretty eyes by the way" I said to him. Mentally slapping myself. Why mads, why ? 

With that, I walked away. Embarrassed.

After bumping into them, I went to the library to study and just mainly read books. The library is the one place I love more than anything. All of the books, the quietness, and of course, mrs.baker. She worked here ever since she was a teen, she recently bought the place from the original owner. She is also one of the two people I trust. 

"Hey honey!" She whispered yelled towards me. "Hi mrs.baker, how have you been?" I said walking to her. She's been living on her own since her husband passed away last year. It was heartbreaking for her. I mean, they were married for thirty something years. Their love towards each other is what I adored. "I've been doing just fine, just been struggling here lately. Micheal quit and so now it's just me working here." She told me with sad eyes. "I'm so sorry" I said while hugging her, "is there anything I can do?" "No honey, don't worry about it. I got it just fine." She told me with a small smile. I know she's lying, I don't want her to work all the time. Then an idea hit me. "How about I work here with you? It won't be a problem, plus, I don't have anything else to do" I said with a bright smile on my face. I would love to be here everyday, it's better than spending my time alone in my dorm. "Are you sure sweetie?" She asked me. "Positive," I said, smiling at her. "Okay then you start this weekend" she said smiling big, which made me smile too. I hugged her and went walking back to my dorm. It's not that far from here, maybe four blocks away. I would have a car, but I don't have enough money for it yet. But, I don't mind, walking is really refreshing for me.
