** 3 YEARS LATER//PRESENT DAY**

WEDNESDAY

Madelyn's POV

I was awoke from my day dreaming by my college teacher, Miss Laya, and it snapped me back into reality; I was I history class. I didn't even know what time it was let alone what period it was.

"Sorry miss? Can you repeat the question? I didn't hear." I said quietly, but apparently loud enough for my silent history peers to hear. Lily whispered something behind me to her little pals, and they all giggled. I couldn't hear but I knew it was about me.

"Everybody hush. Madelyn?" Miss Laya turned to look at me, " are you ok?"

"I'm fine Miss, its nothing." I tried my best to make a believable smile

"Ok." and she smiled back.

The bell rang. Finally. Another day of hell over. I always walk home a. because I barely get any money at my job at the coffee shop and b. I don't live that far away and natures beautiful, especially around here.

I walked out of the building and straight away my headphones over my head on my ears and started walking and just walked and let my long brown out, taking in the gorgeous sunlight.

I absolutely loved miss Laya. She's the last person I have left that cares about me at all. Ever since me and Lily fell out, Alice was the one person who cared, I had my aunt but she was always out. Busy. She's always there for me, and sometimes I even hang round her house and we hang out. She always has schoolwork so its really rare when we do hang out. Alice was 24, she was the youngest teacher at our school. She was the only one at this hell hole left to have faith in me.

Alice taught me how to play guitar and she even got me into singing and we both discovered that I'm not that bad at singing. For over a year now I've been doing some singing covers and putting them up onto YouTube and not to brag but I have over 10 thousand subscribers.

I was 2 blocks away from mine and noticed a moving van near a sold sign. The Sanders finally sold their place. I thought as I walked on home.

I opened the front door and closed it and placed my bag down beside it. "Caroline! I'm home!" I shouted in the silent house. "Caroline?!" I shouted again to me foster mother.

No reply. So she's at work. Which means I'm home alone ONCE AGAIN.

YES! Now I can finally do that cover of Troye's song, BLUE. (A/N: KILLER song- KILLER album,, highly recommend. lol.)

I ran upstairs to my room and kicked my shoes off, grabbing my keyboard, mic and camera to record.

After I recorded I did the little editing to it, title, description, all that and tweeted out to everyone to get excited!! Over a dozen of retweets and favourites in less than 2 minutes. Woah. After about 5 minutes of the upload, so by the time majority of them saw the video. I tweeted everyone to tweet me some song suggestion. I love my little friends, my butterflies, I call them. Because they helped me fly away into the butterfly that I am now to that sad, miserable caterpillar I was not that long ago.

Over 100 tweets came up and 90% of them were to do Shawn Mendes song. I remembered that name but I didn't know what from. So I trusted my little butterflies to have good taste in music and decided to listen to his album. BOY DID I MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE. Honestly every song of his made me cry but the ones that made me completely fall apart, was A Little Too Much and Running Low. Seeing his face rung a very big bell but I couldn't remember.

So I tweeted my LB's and told them that the nest cover was going to be of Running Low and they all went crazy and gave my stomach little butterflies. Ironic isn't it.

I heard the front door open and close. It was Caroline. "Madelyn?!" she called.

"Yes?" I answered

"Come down here and help me with dinner." she demanded.

I have a really weird relationship with Caroline. She's really sweet and all but she has that tone all the time when she's with me as if I annoy her or something but I don't know..

After dinner we exchanged our goodnights and went to bed.

FRIDAY (A/N: who gives a fuck about Thursday?)

After school I went home the shorter way, purely because I wanted to post my Shawn cover. All day yesterday after school I was learning Running Low on the piano and eventually I got there and I was hella excited. When I came home I saw that Caroline was here. Dang it, how am I going to do record the cover now?

"Hey Caroline." I walked in the living room and smiled, sitting down on the other end of the sofa to her.

"Hey Mads." she smiled, not taking her eyes off the screen. I noticed that she was really stressed out, probably about her job or something?

"You aright?" I asked.

"Yeah, I guess. It's just, the diners getting real rough, I might have to take a double shift tomorrow." she said, really tired.

"How about I run you a nice hot bath?" I smile at her, gently rubbing her arm.

"oh my god that'd be insane, thanks."

"Ok then, give me 10 minutes." I smiled and kissed her on the forehead and left the room. I went into the bathroom and cleaned the bath and then filled it up with nice hot water jasmine bubble bath. I got her her bathrobe and towel and put it on the towel rail.

I skipped back to the living room and peeped my head through the door. "Baths ready!" I beamed "I'll be upstairs if you need me later." I smiled and went upstairs and heard Caroline shout "thank you Maddie!"

I got out all the film and singing equipment and started to sing. I tweeted the announcement for the video and then uploaded it.

I was so excited to hear everyone's comments. They're always so kind and lovely. I was so happy.
