Hailey's POV

Recently I have been seeing an increase in demands for a draw my life video. I really wanted to do one, but at the same time I didn't. Because my teenage years were, well, kind of rough. And I didn't want to seem like an attention seeker. But if that's what my fans want, I'll do it.

I went out to the store and bought supplies. A white board, eraser, and dry-erase markers. I kept thinking about what Jordan would think of the video.

I got home, set everything up, started to plan, and record. This was going to take a while.

------ time breakage -------

"There," I said to myself. I just finished editing it all together. While it was uploading, I sent out a tweet, "Hey guys, a highly requested video is going to be up in a few hours. Look out for this thumbnail!", and I posted the picture that said "Draw My Life" on a white board. I automatically got tweets back, saying things like "I'm so excited!" or "finally it's here!"

While these few hours pass, I decide to walk over to Jordan's.

Jordan's POV

My phone went off, saying I have a notification from twitter. Hailey just sent out a tweet saying her draw my life will be up in a few hours. I will definitely have to watch that. Just then I heard a knock on my door.

I opened it to find Hailey.

"You don't have to knock you know," I chuckled.

"It's still polite," she smiled, leaning up to kiss me on the lips.

She walked into the living room, stretching out on the couch. I sat beside her, followed by her laying her head on my lap.

"So draw my life huh?" I asked.

"You saw my tweet?"

"Sure did."

"Oh," she said shyly.

I looked down at her, "everything ok?"'

"Fine, perfectly fine," she said while looking up into my eyes. "Why?"

"Just wondering."

------- few hours later --------

"Well I need to head to the grocery store quickly. Talk to you later babe," she said while pulling me into a rather short kiss.

I leaned back and said, "see you soon. By honey, I love you."

"I love you more," she argued.

"No I love you more."

She giggled, "I doubt that," she said as she walked out the door.

I got another alert on my phone, saying Hailey's draw my life just uploaded. So I walked into my computer room, and searched it up.

"Draw My Life - Hailey Leonard"

I clicked the link, and began to watch.

"Hey what's up guys! Hailey here, and today, I'm going to draw my life!" I smiled, hearing her voice.

"I was born in New York City on November 8th, 1994. I always have been a city girl, and always will be."

She went on, telling a few things from her childhood. Me occasionally laughing because she threw some embarrassing things in there too.

"And then it was time for high school." I noticed instead of writing "high school", she wrote "hell".

"Oops," she said as she marked it out, and corrected it.

"So my first year of high school wasn't the best. I lost a lot of my close friends. I was always bullied because of my weight. At the time, I was trying to beat my anorexia. I weighed roughly 85 lbs.. I was called names everyday, and it kept getting worse and worse. I soon found myself getting more sad each day. I wasn't sure what was wrong with me, until I realized I was suffering from depression. The pain kept on growing. It got to the point where I went in the bathroom, shut the door behind me, sat on the floor, and slid a blade across my skin. It was relief. From all the pain and words and people. It felt good. Until the cuts stung. And it was a repetitive cycle. Over and over again. All throughout high school was this way." I felt tears brimming up in my eyes. Hailey? Why was she bullied? Why did she do this to herself? She didn't deserve this. "I even attempted to commit suicide 4 times," she said softly. No, just no. Why? Why would she even possibly think she isn't worthy enough to be on this planet? She didn't deserve all this. I felt a tear run down my cheek.

Then she brought up Toby, and how happy he made her. "One day, he told me he was moving to LA. So he packed up, and left. I was heartbroken." Oh yep, here comes another tear. I would never want to break her heart, ever. I can't stand to see her sad. "But a year later, I was completely over him, and moved out to Los Angeles too. And it was the best decision of my life. Because on my plane ride there, I met the most amazing guy in the whole universe. Jordan Maron. He has changed my life, and I couldn't ask for someone better. He's been there for me the whole time, and I will always be there for him too. If you're watching this Jordan, I want you to know how much you mean to me. And I love you." Another teardrop fell from my eye. "I love you too," I said to myself, smiling.

"That's just about my life so far. And of course, I couldn't forget about you guys. The fans. I love you guys so much you just don't even know. Without you, I wouldn't be here. And I wouldn't be happy in life if I wasn't doing this job. So, thank you so so so soooooo much for supporting me and sticking with me this whole time guys. Once again, I love you all. See you dudes next time!" Then her outro played.

I sat there, staring at the screen. A million questions running through my mind. My thoughts were interrupted by a text from Hailey.

From: Hailey <3

"Hey babe! I'm on my way back from the market, I was wondering if you wanted to come over to my place?"

To: Hailey <3

"Sure thing sweetheart. I'll be there when you get there :)"

From: Hailey <3

"Okay thanks honey, you're the best! I love you.

To Hailey <3

"I love you too."

I decided not to talk to Hailey about her draw my life until she brought it up. If she brings it up.
