Luke's POV

Madelyn's been in the hospital for a week now and everyday I've stopped by before and after classes to come check on her, she tells me she's fine and that I need to focus on classes but I don't take that crap. we've rescheduled the dance performances back 2 weeks for Madelyn to come home,  which only happens very rarely. I begged and begged the school to push it back and finally they listened

"So that's all for this video if you enjoyed it give it a thumbs up and I'll see you all in my next video! Bye!" I say ending my video and stopping my camera. I take my camera over to my desk and take a seat taking out the memory card and sticking it into my laptop and then start to edit the video

BING

I hear my phone go off , I look down at the text reads

"Luke, we need you in LA right away for some auditions, don't question it just get here as soon as possible"

Signed from my manager. I pick up my phone again and text back

"How long do you think it'll take?" I send and stare at my phone screen as I watch him type back up a message

"Three weeks" I see appear and throw my phone down onto the desk in frustration. This means I can't do the dancing showcase. How am I going to tell Madelyn. She's been looking forward to this duet because we've worked so hard on it. Crap. I stare at the unedited video on my laptop as I hear my phone go off

"Madelyn💋😍" is calling

"Hello?" I say answering softly

"Hey.. I was wondering what time you were coming tonight" she says

"Tonight?" I say

"Movie" she says

"Oh my.. Madelyn I am so so sorry I.." I say

"You forgot.. I get it.. Tomorrow then?" She says

"No no! I'll be there in a hour! Just sit tight!" I say staring at the video

"Okay great! Bye I love you!" She says and hangs up.

"Bye.." I mumble and sit my phone down. I start to edit the video and look at the time, 45 minutes, I can at least get this video half way edited then I can finish it when I get home. But I need excuses of why I can't do the dance
Program.. Since she doesn't know I'm a youtuber.. It was be so much easier if I just told her.. But of course, I am a chicken. Scared to death. I'll just.. I'll just tell her my mom needs me back at home for family problems.. My grandpa is in the hospital so that wouldn't be a complete lie.. I edit as I'm collecting my thoughts and then I look at the time, 5 minutes until I'm supposed to be there and that doesn't even count traffic time in this plan. I stand up quickly grabbing a coat and my keys and phone, I run out the door locking my door behind me and then I run out to the parking lot and to my car, I unlock my car, get in and start driving towards the hospital, I drive fast but cautiously, the last thing I want is to be in a car wreck. I pull into my regular parking spot, well not really. But pretty close to it. After I park I walk inside and greet Karen, the nurse that I have grown to know and then I trail into the familiar hallway, I stop before reaching Madelyn's room and take a deep breathe. I walk in slowly and look at her and walk over to her kissing the top of her head

"Hey baby you feeling any better?" I say taking off my coat

"I am" she smiles and i sit my coat on the couch and then I lay beside her in the big hospital bed

"Good" I smile at her and she kisses me and I kiss her back

"So what movie?" I ask and she grins

"I may have got the full series of dance academy....." I laugh at her and she smiles proud of herself

"Sounds good" I say and wrap my arms around her as she starts playing the series on her laptop, she lays her head on my shoulder and we watch as the first episode starts.

3 episodes in I notice she's almost asleep

"Madelyn.." I say

"Hm?" She says looking up at me

"I just got bad news... Before I came.. That's why I blanked out about our date.." I say slowly as my face starts to feel hot and my hands start to sweat

"Oh baby what was it??" She says sitting up and looking at me worriedly

"My grandpa's in the hospital.. I have to go back to home and won't be back for three weeks.. I can't do the duet with you.." I say biting my lip worried and also sick to my stomach that I just lied to her face

"Oh baby.. That's okay.. I'll find something out.. Just yeah.. Go be with your family that's okay.." She kisses my
Cheek gently

"Your so understanding I love you" I say hugging her and she hugs back

"I love you too" she tells me

What did I just get myself into.
