Chapter 5

Bridget's POV

I could have possibly had a revelation last night. I thought about how Taylor was furious with my actions, so mad at me to slap me across the face and feel no remorse.

Maybe she was right, maybe I needed Taylor in my life and that I'm only hurting myself in the process. Well, it's obvious that I'm hurting myself, I mean, look at me. I'm a run down homeless kid that loves sex and drugs. It's about time Taylor did something, I just wish she wasn't such a prick about it all.

These thoughts allow me to fall into a deep sleep.

I wake up to Taylor blowing an air horn; my brain rattles in my head, and so much pain emerges in me.  I have never had such a bad hangover and Taylor isn't helping me with the noise.  She opened up the shades letting the piercing light in.

She knew what she was doing to me and I looked at her as she had the biggest smirk on her face. She enjoyed putting me in the pain I was in right now.

"Wake up; first day of class and its algebra." She explained

Oh god, math is the worst thing ever. I have never understood math; it's always so complicated and I don't see why id ever use it in my future.

We sat down at the counter of the hotel room. She sets out a pen and paper, along with dropping a book, creating a loud noise. I cringe of the pain in my head from the obnoxious sound, and then cringe at myself for creating this hangover. "What do you know" she asks, sitting down next to me.

I shrug and tap my pencil on the counter. I actually love school, I was highest ranked in the class, in like middle school. But once things started to go down hill, I stopped caring, and once I stopped caring, I just stopped going to school in general.

"Bridget, don't do that to me" she opens the book to the first chapter, "Do you want to start from the beginning?"

"Nope"

"Bridget" she warns, opening the notebook, sliding it towards me, "Find A" I point at the A in the book and turn to smile at her. She rolls her eyes "I don't find this funny" she comments, looking back at the book, "if B= 14 and C= 34, what is A"

"24"

"42" she corrects, pointing at my paper

"you didn't even let me try"

"You gave me a number and it was wrong. Now do it again" she taps the paper twice and I write down the problem, turning towards her as if I'm asking permission to continue, "I'm really not in the mood for this Bridget"

"All I did was look at you" I argue, pushing her buttons, "didn't think your mood was bitch today"

She sighs, looking back down at the paper, ignoring my statement.

Taylor's POV

Bridget became frustrated after a while, not understanding why she was getting the answers mixed up. At one point she threw her pencil down and stormed out of the place, taking a moment before coming back in. "I'm done!" she closes the book, and tosses it onto the ground, "this is bullshit"

"Alright, come on"  I get out of the chair, putting on my jacket

"Where are we going?"

"Just come on" I swing my arm towards the door and she follows me down to my car. We make our way to rehearsals and I introduce her to the team, even though she kind of knew them. But she needed to know them on a personal level before she started performing.

The first song I chose for her was Enchanted, Its got really high notes that i wanted to see if she could hit

I watch her eyes light up when singing. She was in her own little world up there, not needing the lines or the melody because she has already proven she knew the song.

She hit it perfectly, but afterwords I watch tears well in her eyes. She tries to hide it from me but I can notice when people are crying from a mile away.

"What's wrong Bridg?"

Bridget breaks down in front of me, walking over to me to let her head fall into my shoulder as the tears stream down her face. I wipe her face over and over, not knowing what to do with this situation because I'm not sure how Bridget copes with things.

I ask the one thing I knew my mom asks when I'm feeling blue, never failing her. "You okay Hun?"

Thank you everyone!!! I woke up and looked on and i went from 10 reads to 40!! I know it doesn't seem like much but for my confidence, its awesome!
