Demis' POV:

           I grabbed my backpack not paying attention no my mother making out with the cable guy. I ran to the bus ,greeted James, the bus driver. and sat closest to the front. The back of the bus was allways full of the "Loud" kids.You can say I am quiet, I mainly only speak if i have to. My earplugs where in my ears as always, as I listened to my favorite singer, Ed Sheeran. Music is my getaway; from my mom , school, everything. The whole world stops when im listening to music its like im in a peaceful garden filled with daisy's. Deep huh? 

         After a few minutes the bus stopped in front of the sign that read "Welcome to Mermill High school". To me it read Welcome to Hell. School wasnt my favorite place to be; the only part of school i like is music. Which was my LAST period. I walked to my locker and put in the combo. I took my binder out of my backpack and put my backpack on my locker shelf. I then took out my song writing book and put it on my binder.                                                                                                                      I walked to my first class Math then, Science then, French, Advisory,Lunch, Which I sit alone in , Lanuage arts, Social Studies, Then finally Music. I sat down in an empty chair and took out my song book waiting for the teachers instructions. The teacher told us to settle down and then she got to talking about our project. "You will be singing a duet with someone I choose to put you with". I tapped my fingers on the desk. I hated doing anything with someone else , Im very independent. There was one person though, I hoped to get paired with. Ulliana, even though we didnt hang out much atleast i knew her. I waited for the teadher to say my name and my partners name. "Demi Lovato..... and....Niall Horan".

Nialls' POV:

            I thought to myself;Demi. Ive seen her around the hallways but everyone tells me she doesnt talk. Great, ill probably be doing the work all on my own as she nods to everything i say. I hear the bell ring as i walk up to Demi. "Hey so do i come over to your house or...?". Dani thought for a second and shook her head "How about Marco's coffee House at 7?". I Nodded and walked to my locker ,got my backpack, and walked out to the parking lot. I got in my car and drove home. Time went by fast I was playing my guitar and before i knew it it was 6:30. "Shit!" I took a quick shower and threw on my clothes. I waved to my mom ,got in my car and drove to Marco's Coffee House". I saw demi sitting there with a notebook and a coffee. I went over and sat across from her. "Lets do this." I said

Demi asked "Can we do ..."

"Hmm?"

"I was thinking maybe we could do Beneath your Beautiful by Labrinth"

"Hmm, I guess so. Its kind of hard working here especially because its so public"

"Lets go to your place."

"Why cant we go to yours?"

Demi looked down "Can we just go to your house?"

I nodded to her and left the money for the coffee on the table. 

"I could have paid"

"Nah , I got it"

We got in the car and i turned the engine on. We drove for 5 minutes without saying anything. She then turned on the radio, "Give me love" came on. Her face suddenly changed , she was smiling. She started singing along and so did I. She looked at me and smiled. I didn't even notice how good she sang before. She was amazing. Once the song finished we arrived at my house. I turned off the engine and got out of the car. She followed me into my house. I looked around the house. Nope, my mom wasn't home as usual. I lead her upstairs to my room. I went digging through the closet looking for my guitar. "Louis!!!" He walked in. I could tell he was drunk.

"What.....?"

"Wheres my guitar"

"I dont know.."

"Where is it! .."

"Oh cmon, you dont want to yell and frighten the sexy lady"

He walked over to demi and he played with her hair. Demi quickly stood up and moved away.

"Im ganna go home.."

I gave my brother the look that means stop. 

"I'll drive you"

"Thanks"

She grabbed her bag and followed me outside. She got in the car and i started driving.

"So uhmm, wheres your house?"

"1443 Prestwood Lane"

"Okay, Uhm sorry about my brother."

"Its okay..."

"Can we meet again tomorrow?"

"Sure."

We finally arrived and she got out of the car. Her house was huge. She waved at me as i drove away.

Demi's POV:

I waited for his car to be out of sight. Once it was, I ran to my actual house. I couldn't let him see the dirtbag of a house I live in. I mean his house was huge and beautiful. Once I arrived I snuck inside. I saw my mothher looking at me.

"H-Hi mom"

"Where have you been !!"

"Working on a project, i told you"

"Out this late!!"

"Its only eight mom.."

"What did you say?!?!"

"N-nothing"

"No i heard something! Your talking back ."

"I-I'm Sorry m-"

Her hand made contact with my cheek. I put my hands to my cheek and ran upstairs with tears slowly running down my red cheek. I locked the door and climbed out the window . I sat on the roof and put my knees to my chest. I wish someone cared about me. Ive never had anyone care for me. Not my mother, not my father , no friends. I used the rope I tied to the roof to get down. I ran as fast as I could not knowing where i was going. I just ran, thats the only thought i had in my mind run run run. I ran until I was nearly out of breath. I arrived at "my spot". It was an old tree-house it had my guitar and some clothes in it, It was far away from any houses or places. It was kind of in the middle of nowhere . Just in the middle of a huge grass field. I climbed the ladder and went to the second story of the tree-house. I layed on the blanket and used half to cover me. I closed my eyes and fell asleep
