Chapter 2

( A.n so some scenes in this chapter are abusive you don't have to read it I'm just warning you 😄)

Caroline's POV

I walked in trying to go unnoticed, but of course that didn't happen.
"Where the hell have you been all day?" My drunk foster dad asked me.

"The same place I am everyday" I said looking him straight in the face.

A familiar sting raced through my cheek. I held my face hoping it wouldn't get worse tonight.
"Was that sass?" He slurred opening up a new bottle.

"N-no sir" I said looking down. I slowly made my way to the stairs so I could lock myself in my room until tomorrow.

I bolted for the stairs as soon as he turned away. Thanking God he was to drunk to climb the stairs.

I walk into my room. The only safe place in the house.
I throw my book bag on my bed, not really worrying about homework at this point.

I walk over to my MacBook on my desk.
After my parents died they left me all the money they had, which wasn't a crazy amount, but it has defiantly helped.

I pull up youtube and notice that I hit 700k subscribers. I scroll through some recent subs and almost freak when I see the name. Cameron freaking dallas subscribed to my channel.

The first thing I do is dial Samantha's number. "Hey girl what's up?" She said on the first ring.
"Oh nothing much just looking through some of my subs and you know cameron was one of them" I said excitedly.

I pulled the phone away because I knew what was coming. You could hear her scream all through my room.

Samantha knows I post covers, and she compliments me on my singing almost everyday. "Look Samantha I will talk to you more about it tomorrow" I said about to hang up.

"Okay, and btw I already bought our tickets to see Magcon." She said and hung up quickly.

Omf what do I do. Don't get me wrong I really want to go but If I have to sneak out to get there it's gonna be trouble.
Pushing all my worries aside,
I switch to the camera and turn on the filter that blocks my face.

I have been posting covers for months now, but I've never shown my face. People call me the girl in the shadows.

"Hello everyone! To celebrate 700k subscribers I am posting another video this week!" I say excitedly into my laptop.

"Today I will be singing a little to much my Shawn Mendes" I say.

I grabbed my guitar that was sitting next to my desk and began to sing the sweet melodies of Shawn.

" she would not show that she was afraid, but being and feeling alone was to much to take.

Everyone said that she was so strong, what they didn't know is that she could barely carry on.

But she knew that she would be okay, so she didn't let it get in her way.

Sometimes it all gets a little to much, but you gotta realize that soon the fog will clear up
And you don't have to be afraid because we're all the same.

And we know that sometimes it all gets a little to much.

She would always tell herself she can do this should would use no hope it would be just fine.

But when it got hard she would lose her focus, so take my hand and we'll be alright .... "

I finished the song and did my outro, making sure to thank shawn for such an amazing song.

" I can relate to this song on so many levels,
and i just want to say if it all gets a little to much, smile because pretending your happy shows how strong you can be on the inside, and just grabs someone's hand a talk about it...

Because things don't get better,

you get better. Love you guys"

I pressed upload and crawled into bed.

Author note: hello lovelys 💜💙btw the quote
" Because things don't get better, you get better" is from a tweet sebastian Olzanski tweeted, so I am not taking credit for that. 💞💞
