*Maddie's POV: just pretend there back into Sydney*
I was ready to record all of my songs so I called Jimmy and he agreed so right now dads driving me there and I'm kind of nervous.
"Dad is it normal to be this nervous." He nodded.
"Yeah but don't be you'll do fine." I nodded. We got there.
"Hello." I said to Jimmy as we met up there. He let me inside.i walked into the recording part and sang all twelve songs and I was about to start on my last one.
"Before you start take a break your throat must be killing you." Jimmy said as I nodded. I walked out and chugged my water.
"One more song." I said as dad sent me a smile and hugged me.
"There great. What's the name of the album?" He asked as I told him. He nodded.
"One more song let's get going." Jimmy said as I walked back into the recording part.
"What one is this one called?"
"Thanks for nothing" he nodded and gave me a thumbs up. I started.
"I'll never take part in the growing population
Or waste my time with further education
Forget what we know,
It's just a big show
What they want to control

So jaded,
Frustrated,
It's all so complicated
Fashion,
No passion
Surrounds me

All I know is I've heard this all before
Reality's a bore,
You ask me to believe in something fake
Well, I can't bring myself to do what you want me to
This is who we are and nothing's gonna change

Nothing's gonna change

I can't take part in the businessman illusion
I'll take my chance in the real world confusion
Don't blame us
Who do we trust
When they're so dishonest?

No patience,
This nation's
Obsessed with exploitation
Lying,
Denying
Surrounds me

All I know is I've heard this all before,
Reality's a bore
You ask me to believe in something fake
Well, I can't bring myself to do what you want me to
This is who we are and nothing's gonna change

Don't think you can ignore us
Don't tell me that we're to blame
Don't pick our future for us
Or act like we're the same

All I know is I've heard this all before,
Reality's a bore
You ask me to believe in something fake
Well, I, can't bring myself to do what you want me to
This is who we are and nothing's gonna change

Thanks for nothing
(I've heard this all before)
Thanks for nothing
(reality's a bore)
Thanks for nothing
(I'll never be the same)
Thanks for nothing
(and nothing's gonna change)" I finished the song and put a thumbs up and he told me I could leave. The funeral was in a couple of hours.
"Hey jimmy we got to go." He nodded in understanding.
"I'll text you the details." I nodded as we went home. We got there and both of us hopped into different showers. I got out and put on a plain black strapless mid thigh dress, flats, and a gold bracelet. I let my hair fall naturally as I curled the tips. I went down stairs and saw Macy in a black sundress, wedged heels, a little make up. Her hair was down and way and she had her bangs twisted and pinned back. Everyone was mainly in a tux, but unfortunately Liam couldn't attend.
*skip car ride*
We got there and all of us had to say a speech. And knowing me I'm probably gonna break down at the first word. Jordan was first. I gave him a sympathetic smile.
"Uh um," he started I could tell her was already gonna cry." Kayla was an amazing little 5 year old. I was there the second she was borne and the second of h-her death. I wish she could become the dancer she wanted to be, or live a happy life, yes she was happy with a new family b-but," he broke down," sorry I can't finish it." He walked off the stage. I was the last one to go up so when I saw him run away I ran after him.
"Jordan? Jordan stop!" I yelled he stopped and fell on his knees. I ran up to him and sat in my knees next to him giving him a hug.
"She was five! I-it shouldn't have been her!"he kept sobbing and crying on my shoulder. "She didn't even have the life she wanted." I held him tighter. Tears were coming out my eyes. I grabbed his chin and forced him to look at me.
"Jordan, she is in a better place. She was in danger, this world has danger, but know she's away from it and safe. She may not be here physically but she's here mentally. When I was in the coma I told my mom all about you, Kayla, Macy everyone and she always said that someday were all going to be able to see each other." I soda as I sat in his lap and he wrapped his arms around me as he put his head into my neck.
"I just wish there was a way I could see her one last time." He said as I rubbed his back. He looked up at me and what happened next shocked me. I felt his lips over mine. Sweet and gentle. We parted ways as he got up.
"I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that. I-I" I cut him off by getting up and kissing him.
"It's okay. I don't mind." I soda as he smiled.
"And Kayla would have liked it better that way because she told me she wanted the princess to get married to the prince and you know who she told me they were. Us." I said as we kissed again. We walked back and it was my turn.
"Kayla is the most amazing little girl I have ever met. It sucked when I had to save her from her father, but yet I'm glad because then I wouldn't have met her and she wouldn't had told me these exact words. "When I grow up, I want to see the princess marry the prince. I want to see Maddie marry Jordan." I laughed a little. " she wanted to be a dancer so I taught her how to dance. It's sucks that she can't do the things she loves, but like I just explained to Jordan, she is out of danger. The worlds danger that gets thrown and people she's is not in danger anymore. She is safe and I know that my mom is watching her now. Kayla might not be her physically but she's here mentally along with my mother. Rest In Peace Princess Kayla Lynn Styles." I got done and had tears down my face. Dad gave me a hug. I don't know how dads gonna take the news of me and Jordan are dating. We got into the car and drove home. Me and Macy changed into sweats and a tank top.
"You coming downstairs?" Macy asked as I smiled but declined. She nodded and walked downstairs. I heard a knock at the door.
"Come in." Harry came in. This should be good.
"Can we talk?" I nodded as he sat next to me on the bed.
"Yes Harry?" I gave me a suspicioning look.
"You and Jordan?" I looked down trying not to blush.
"Yeah I know. You shouldn't date him he's family. Blah blah blah. But you have no idea how long I've had a crush on that kid even before he moved and I know it's technically illegal but I like him a lot." I soda as he looked at me in total shock.
"I was just going to ask if he was okay? Wait you two are dating?" Fuck.
"He is and I don't know. It's complicated we kissed at the funeral. He hasn't asked me to be his girlfriend and I know it's against the law, but I truly do like him." I sighed. " and w-when Kayla said that when she is older she wants the prince to marry the princess and she looked directly at me and Jordan. I don't know." He pulled me into a hug.
"It's not against the law and I'm okay with it. Ashton though he's a different story, but I've got a question." I nodded.
"Do you like him because you want Kayla to be happy or do you like him because of the crush?" I sighed.
"Both, but mainly because I like him that way." Harry nodded.
"Well if I were you I'd talk to Ashton before he figures out on his own." I nodded as he left. I sighed and fell asleep.
