Morgan woke up to the smell of pancakes and sat up looking around for Madison. After not seeing her he threw on some sweatpants and a hoodie and walked downstairs.

"Morning sleeping beauty" Lesli said poking fun at him. He smiled sleepy watching Madison help his mama.
"See you've put Madison to work"

"It's not work, it's fun, and it's a way to make memories" she said referring to the sign in her kitchen. Madison laughed glancing at his messy hair. "Morning honey" she said smiling as she helped Lesli.

"Morning" he replied. "Morgan Cole, buy a hair brush" Lesli teased. Madison started to laugh along with Lesli and he did too. "Mama, I'm gonna throw a hat on it anyways"

After finishing the pancakes Lesli helped Madison carry them too the table. After finishing breakfast Madison walked outside and sat on the porch taking in the Tennessee air.

Tommy joined her shortly after with a cup of coffee. "Morgan said you didn't drink coffee, so here's a tea" he said.
"Oh thank you! Coffee keeps me up too long that's why I don't drink it"

"That's how Lesli is" he laughed. "So, how many acres do y'all have?" She asked. "About 20, mostly farm land, but Morgan and I hunt some of the woods in the back"

Madison listened to all the story's Tommy had to tell, laughing at his funny jokes on Morgan before Lesli walked outside with them. "Madison, you wanna go get something to wear tonight for Havens play?"

She nodded walking with Lesli to the car. "Apparently we need something red, and I don't own anything red other than Christmas sweaters" she laughed. "Im sure Morgan doesn't have anything red either" she mentions.

Madison laughed as they drove to the store. After shopping for awhile they both had eyes on something they liked, Lesli with a casual red blouse, and Madison with a red dress.

"Is this too formal?" Madison asked. "Nothings ever too formal, gotta dress up Y'know" she replied. Madison laughed carrying the dress to the counter.

After they paid they drove back home to get ready for the play. Madison took a second to admire herself before pulling her sweater over her shoulders.

Morgan was sitting on her bed as she walked out of the bathroom. "You look beautiful" he mentioned twirling her around. "Thanks, gotta look the best for your little niece" she added.

"That you do" he added. As they drove Morgan couldn't help but stare at her. As they arrived they sat down in the front row as requested by Haven and waited for her to come out.

After the show Morgan greeted his niece with a hug and held her on his hip before walking too Madison.
"Good job girly! You did amazing!" Madison exclaimed.

"Thanks Aunt Madi!" She shouted. Madison grinned at the name and gave her a high five before they handed Haven off too Mikeala.

"I'm glad you came, she really seems to like you" Morgan mentions. "I'm glad"

Morgan and Madison are at Big Loud and doing their jobs. Morgan taps his pen on the table, his brain racing with thought as he try's to write a song.

"Damn it! I can't" he says tossing the pen on the table. "You needa focus man, you never go blank like this" Micheal says. "Well it's difficult too work knowing you've got a thousand other things to do" he snapped.

Caleigh caught wind of the situation and made her way to Madison's office. "Madi, can I come in?" She asked.
"Yep!" She replied enthusiastically.

"Morgan's just a little, stressed out in his office, just letting you know in case he snapped at you" she mentions.
"Oh, I'll go talk to him"

Madison gently knocked on the door approaching with caution. "What! Oh hey baby" Morgan snapped, correcting himself as he realized who it was.

"Why so tense?" She asked sitting next to him. "I'm stressed the hell out, all this shit to do with little time too do it, trying to write in the middle isn't helping" he huffed.

"Well, take a second, just breath I'll see what I can do" she instructed giving him a kiss on the cheek and turning to the notebook in front of her.

Morgan let out a deep breath watching as she wrote down some lyrics. "Okay, how's this?" She asked both Morgan and Micheal. Morgan read the lyrics, an immediate smile appearing on his face.

"Damn it Blondie, you did it again" he mumbled. Madison smiled, proud of her work and kissed Morgan quickly before walking back to her office.

Micheal laughed. "She's better than us" he mumbled.

Micheal stood in the loud bar, music bumping through the atmosphere as he tried to find Morgan.
"Morgan! Hey!" He shouted as he watched Morgan sit with a tall brunette woman.

"Shit, shit, shit, Morgan Don't!" He yelled. Morgan couldn't hear the screams from Micheal as he stumbled drunkenly out of the bar with the woman.

"No! Morgan please don't! Stop it dumbass!" He practically screamed as he chases the car. "Shit this isn't good" he mumbled stumbling to get his phone.

He frantically called Caleigh and prayed she would pick it up. "Hello?" She asked, her voice groggy.
"I need you to call Madison, Morgan just left with some chick from the bar" he panted.

"What! Is he stupid!? What the hell!" She shouted angrily. "I don't know! Just call her quick before something happens"

Caleigh frantically dialed Madison's number. The call went to message and she tried again. "Shit, shit, shit!" She repeated.

Finally one more call she picked up. "Hey girl! What's u-"

"Morgan left with some girl down at losers, you've gotta find him before things go too far! He was drunk as hell from what I understand" Caleigh explains.

Madison's heart wrenched as she heard that. "What?" Was all she could let out. Tears streamed down her face as she threw on a coat. She had been sick so she didn't go to the bar with them.

Now, wishing she had went with them, she made her way to her car her tear filled eyes clouding the path as she found the house Morgan was at.

She broke down as she pulled in seeing him and the woman making out in his truck. Morgan spotted her, immediately dropping the woman and making his way too her car.

"Baby, no, please" he begged. Madison's body trembled with anger and hurt as he put his hand on her back.
"No, stop" she mumbled.

"Please Madison" he begged. "No, we're done" she mumbled pushing his hand away. Morgan's heart broke in half. The woman sat confused in the truck before hopping out.

"You have a girlfriend! Your such a dumbass!" The woman yelled slapping him across the face. Morgan held his stinging cheek as the brunette stormed away.

He stared at his broken girlfriend, witch was his now ex, regretting everything he'd done. "Bye Morgan, hope you do well" Madison mumbled, tears still streaming down her face.

He had messed everything up.
