Kaylee's pov:
I enter the room and my fans start shouting and chanting my name which boosted my confidence.I took a seat and my fans kept asking questions back and forth eventually the event came to an end and it was time for the last question.
One of the fan stood up and asked .
"What inspired you to write music or who inspired you to make music and 1 advice you would give to your younger fans" she completed her question taking a seat back.
"Woah that's 3 questions" I said chuckling."My music in general says a lot about me than I ever will. It was always about heartbreaks or pain cause that was what my life was filled with, the first ever song I wrote was when my dad cheated on my mom and I thought that it would be the last time I would write a sad song, but I was wrong. I had met a boy in 3rd grade who was a huge part of my life, to me he was special and different. He was my saviour when I needed him the most and I was his. He was the nicest thing that had ever happened to me and without even realising i started to fall for him but in life some day all the good things eventually comes to an end. Things started to change in between us I mean I don't blame him because he was blinded by love and so was I, even after all the shit he's still everything to me. He's like a song I'll forever have on replay. It was he who inspired me to write music. The moral of this story is that no matter how much we try no matter how much we want it.
Some stories don't have a happy ending and ours definitely didn't have one"
I sighed and started to talk again."That was long and boring I know. life can be full of shit but I kept going not because I wanted to, trust me, all of me wanted to stop. I kept going cause I deserved to know what not giving up on life felt like. No matter how hard life is you need to try it's better to try rather than regretting it. Don't let others bring you down and don't let the negativity get to you. Stay soft do not let the things that hurt you turn you into a person you're not. You're worth more than you think you are. If you have a dream aim for it and I'll guarantee you, you'll have it just like how I had mine. So yea that's it"
I finished my speech and Everyone started to clap and cheer for me.I left the stage cause I really needed to pee.
I rushed to the restroom and ran into one of the empty stalls When I was done I stood up and looked around, the stall walls which was once filled with "kaylee is a slut" "kaylee is a whore" were now filled with "Hannah is a bitch" "Hannah is a people pleaser"
I got out of the stall and I saw a girl probably in her teen's curled up in the corner balling her eyes out.
"You must be Hannah" I asked.
"Leave me alone please" she said keeping her head down. I signed and kneeled Down to her height.
"Look Hannah I don't know what you're going through and i don't know if you need to hear this or not, one thing I understood is no matter how hard life can be You can't skip chapters That's not how life works. You have to read every line and meet every character. You won't enjoy all of it.
Hell, some chapters will make you cry for weeks. You'll read things you don't want to read. You'll have moments when you don't want the pages to end. But you have to keep going. Stories keep the world revolving . Live yours. Don't miss out." I said standing up and leaving but before I left I could hear a "thank you."
I smiled to myself and kept walking to the back door which led to the parking area.I dug into my bag for my keys and I heard someone.
"Kaylee" god not him.I turned back to look at him. 5 years ago when I saw him my cheeks turned red 5 years later it was my eyes this time.
"Bennett"
"Look I'm sorry for everything that happened and I really mean it and I um heard your speech back there I didn't know you felt that way" he said scratching the back of his head.
"You never paid attention to me Bennett how would you have known"
"You know Ashley thought you liked me or something rite" he said looking up.
"Well she was right" I said chuckling.
"Hey um Bennett nice meeting you but I need to go Mia is probably waiting for me" I said finally finding my key's.
I didn't wait for him to finish and just left.I got inside my car and started driving, I clicked on the radio and my song started playing.
I got my driver's license last week
Just like we always talked about
'Cause you were so excited for me
To finally drive up to your house
But today I drove through the suburbs
Crying 'cause you weren't aroundAnd you're probably with that blonde girl
Who always made me doubt
She's so much older than me
She's everything I'm insecure about
Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
'Cause how could I ever love someone else?And I know we weren't perfect but I've never felt this way for no one
And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone
Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me
'Cause you said forever now I drive alone past your streetAnd all my friends are tired
Of hearing how much I miss you but
I kinda feel sorry for them
'Cause they'll never know you the way that I do
Yeah, today I drove through the suburbs
And pictured I was driving home to you...Dear Bennett, there was before you and then there was during you but for some reason I never thought there would be an after you,
but there was and I was in it and I'll forever be in it.This is where I met you for the first time and this is where we end.
I may be the writer but you'll always be my words.
I'm still here, loving you silently.
