SAMMIE POV:

"Could you help me planning her funeral?" I asked Madison. "Ofcourse Sammie. If there's anything else I can do just tell me." She smiled at me and then took her phone out. "Let's take a selfie." She said and then we spent like 10 minutes making selfies. From weird faces to serious faces and back.

"Thank you for today." I said as we got up to leave. "No problem. But hey, you wanna go somewhere? I want to show you something." She looked at me with a questioning face. "Sure, let's go." I said but then her phone rang. "It's Marissa." She said and answered the phone. As far as I could hear they were discussing if I should go back to the hotel or not. "Mads hand me the phone." I said and she did.

Phone conversation:

"Sammie where are you?" She asked me, sounding worried. "I'm just walking a little. I'm with Madison and she wants to show me something." I said. "Come back right after, before the dark." She said, probably not realizing it's already getting dark. "Sure thing mom. See ya." I said and hung up.

"So let's go." I handed back her phone and we started walking. It didn't take long before she stopped at a beautiful building. "The Colosseum could hold, it is estimated, between 50,000 and 80,000 spectators, having an average audience of some 65,000; it was used for contests and such as executions, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on . The building ceased to be used for entertainment in the era. It was later reused for such purposes as housing, workshops, quarters for a religious order and a Christian shrine." She said and I didn't realize my mouth was totally open till I catched a fly.

"Dude you sound like wikipedia or something." I said, still not realizing she just said all of that. "I read it from wikipedia you asshole." She laughed. "Well that makes sense." I chuckled. "So why did you want to show me this?" I asked her. "I actually wanted to tell you something." She said and looked at me. "Go ahead."

"Remember earlier today? You told me I could trust you and I've realized I do." She stopped but then continued. "When I was 11 I started to get bullied. I've let them play around with me and make jokes about me for a few years. A few months ago I decided I wanted to change. I tried to change the way I look, to work out, to be a badass. Nothing worked. But then about a month ago these kids asked me to hang out with them, just for fun. They made me use weed, drugs. Since then I have been hanging out with them every day. They finally start to like me for who I am, but my family doesn't." She said and honestly I'm kind of shocked.

"Madison I'm really sorry you had to go through all of that, but you need to realize that this isn't the right thing either. You shouldn't let others bring you down to where you are on your weakest, they'll use you for their own good. Think about your family, your friends, the people that care about you. They'll help you Maddie. This isn't a right decision." I said and looked at her.

"I just want to be loved for once in my life." She mumbled. "You are loved." I said. "By who? You mean my family? Hell no they only care about their favorite daughter Demi. And Demi herself? She's a brat. She even hit me once for telling the truth about how she's never paying any attention to her babysister." She said, which got me to tears. "I love you Madison. I will help you to get through this, we'll do this together." I hugged her. "I love you too."

We sat there for about 5 more minutes and then I got up. "We should head back. You've got 24 missed calls from Marissa and 16 from Demi." I giggled and helped her getting up. We walked back to our hotel but then she stopped me right before walking in. "Can you please stay with me tonight?" She almost begged. "Sure Mads, if you come with me I'll grab my stuff and join you." I said and we went inside.

Once I saw our room I knocked and then opened the door. "Sammie the hell I told you to get back before the dark." She said. I didn't even realize it was already that dark outside. "Yeah I'm sorry momma. Had to take care of something." I said. "And what's that something?" She stood in front of me with her arms crossed. She was probably just worried about me but I can't tell her the truth. I promised Madison not to tell anyone so I'll just come up with my acting skills.

"There was this woman who got attacked by a wild dog so we had to help her and make sure she was alright till help came." I told her. "Anyways, do you mind if I stay with Madison for the night?" I asked her. "Sure baby. I'll see you at breakfast tomorrow morning. Sleep well." She said and kissed my head. "I love you." I hugged her. "I love you more."

I got my stuff and went to Madison's room. I also have to face Demi which is gonna be awkward, I guess. "Hey Demi." I said as we got in. "Hey." She said without any emotion. "Do you mind?" I asked Madison, knowing she knows what I meant. "Sure Sam, see you in 5." She said and walked over to her bed.

"Babe what's wrong?" I walked up to Demi and sat down next to her. "Why?" She asked. "I can see it Demi come on." I said and looked at her. "You can tell me. I'm your girlfriend." I said but she kept quiet.

"Look Demi. I don't know what the hell has gotten into you but as far as I know is that you've been nothing but an ice cold bitch towards me. I tried to help you but this is what I get back? Goodnight." I said and walked over to Madison. I got into her bed and closed my eyes.

Next day

"Morning." I said as I saw Maddie opening her eyes. "Morning." She said. "How did you sleep?" She asked me. "I couldn't sleep." I sighed. "How about you Mads?" I asked her. "I slept well." She said and smiled at me.

"Where's Demi?" I asked. "She had an early appointment with her team but she should be back soon so maybe she's just downstairs. Anyways, shall we go downstairs for breakfast or?" She asked me and we stood up.

Once we got downstairs I saw Marissa and Luna next to Nick and Demi. Madison and I walked around to get our breakfast and then sat down at a single table. She got a croissant, bacon, pancakes and italian bread. I got a croissant and bacon.

"Hey aren't you guys joining us?" Marissa asked. I didn't notice she even walked up to us. "I don't think Demi wants me there." I said and rolled my eyes at how stubborn Demi has become. "She does, now come." Marissa said and took out her hands for Madison and I to reach it. We got up and walked to their table.

"Hey." Everyone said. "Goodmorning." Maddie and I said. Madison sat down next to Demi and I sat down between Marissa and Luna. They seemed to enjoy themselves but I just wanted to get away and sleep.

"I'm going to my room, I haven't slept much and I don't feel too well."
