Between school and magic I really had no time to practice for the talent show that was only a week away. And trust me, I needed it. I was planning on doing a small introduction for myself and was busy writing it when Marie came to my room asking me what I was doing awake at 3 am.

"I-I can't sleep..." I lied and she smirked, laying down beside me like we had been best friends for years

"You miss him don't you" she said to me and I nodded because well ever since that day I haven't been able to talk about it with anyone because it hurt so much.

"Too much to even tell you, I'd have to show you" I said sitting up holding my hands out to her. She sat up too and placed her hands softly into my palms.

"I'm ready" she said.

I closed my eyes and began to send her wave after wave of different days that I remembered with cas. The bad ones, the good ones... The first few were my favourite. After I showed her the first time we met she pulled her hands away quickly and looked up at me with shock in her eyes.

"I had no idea" she said like she was horrified

I shook my head "how could you..." I started down at my note book and scribbled lines on the corner as I thought to myself.

"Destiny Madison... That is destiny... This is destiny. Fate. You two were meant to fall in love" she said, her eyes rolling back into her head like she were possessed. I've seen it once before, see not everyone has every power like I do. I realized that when I came here, Marie's power was to see the future but it was always unclear on what she had said when she saw it. I took her hand quickly and comforted her as she spoke these words over and over "love is a powerful thing. That's the key. Love is a powerful thing" she said. Even though it had made no sense to me. This is just what she had told me whenever I got upset about cas.

She had slowly calmed down and looked up at me

"What did I say?" She asked and I shook my head

"Only that love is a powerful thing and something about destiny... Nothing really else that I don't hear from you regularly" she nodded and kissed the top of my head

"Get some sleep" she said and left the room. I was curious and still couldn't sleep.

By the morning I was passed out in a pile of papers in my bed. The only good thing written was in the top of my note book and it read

"To someone I feel like I've known all my life, but he can't remember me. Love is a powerful thing, I'll never forget that" that was my introduction for when I go on stage this Friday for the high school talent show that really no one a cares about but everyone is made to go see. So hopefully cas will be there. I slowly woke up and rushed around my room to get everything ready for school when Kyle came into my room with his eyes closed asking if I were "decent" I snickered and replied with a snarky "not since birth" he laughed and slowly uncovered his eyes to see me with my guitar in hand and book bag in the other.

"I'm ready" I said and he smiled

"Your carriage awaits my darling" he said bowing and I glared

"Yeah no... I'll take my bike today... Were already labelled as the weird rich kids, I rather not act like one" I said and grabbed my helmet "don't wait up" I patted him on the back and sprinted down the stairs out side and rode away on my bike. They already took everything else away from me, they can't take my freedom. As I rode I felt free, leaving all my worries behind me and letting my hair fly free into the wind. I soon arrived at school and locked up my bike before heading to my locker to get some of my things as I hummed the song I was going to sing. People passed and didnt talk to me becuase I was the weird kid in school. Not like I cared, I didnt have any friends or anyone to impress right?

School was tedious as always as I shuffled from class to class in the mixed up state I was in. From home work to my own personal problems it just felt like all the weight of the world was callapsing onto me and I couldn't breathe. It was suffocating trying to make everyone happy, doing was I was told and not getting into trouble. I couldnt be a kid anymore I had to be something I was not prepared to become and I didnt like it one bit. The day couldn't go by slowly enough, it's like it had been put on some kind of time spell and the hours I had recently visited were coming back to me over and over again in an endless cycle. But how could they? Lucinda didn't know what I was going to do and she had no reason to make this go any slower. I slowly felt the weight of everything I had been forced to do, crush me and I was stunned to say the least. Even though no one talked to me I could see that they admired my courage of going up on stage in front of the whole school.

Finally the time had come for me to make a fool of myself and confess my love through song for someone who doesn't even know I exist. Castiel summers... The name that has been circling my tongue since the first time I saw him. There were a few claps and snarky comments about me but I walked onto stage and searched the crowd looking for his bright face. I found him and as our eyes met he sat straight up, and started listening intently. I tapped the mic twice and slowly spoke in my soft yet alluring voice, no one in school had heard me speak so this would be a rare occasion.

"To someone I feel like I've known all my life, but he can't remember me. Love is a powerful thing, I'll never forget that I hope you don't either" I said and looked at cas. When I had said it... That one line it looked like everything had come flooding back to him in a mess of different waves. His eyes went wide and gave me a smile I had only seen since the first day we met. I was curious but started playing. Then singing....

I finished the song and got a roar of applause from the whole school. I slowly bowed and walked off the stage as I saw cas race out of the auditorium in a panic. I sighed and only thought to myself that it didn't work that I had failed fate and something went wrong. Then a flash of white light and my physical form had passed out. In my mental state I was with the woman in white, Elizabeth crown. She knelt beside me and held my hands, speaking to me with much kindness "you tried... And I can't thank you enough for that... You don't even know me yet you would sacrifice something as precious as love for me and I am very greatful" I got angry, that was it. I was still being pushed around and I still didn't have happiness. I was done. "Get away from me..." I spoke cruely and started sobbing in angry and jealousy. She didn't let up. She kept speaking "it's time I tell you who I am...." She said and I came back to reality with multiple people standing over my body. I stood up quickly and brushed myself off running out of the auditorium looking for cas or Gabriel. I sped down the halls slamming lockers and being pissed off about absolutely everything till I came across Gabriel and a few of his friends standing around cas listening to him rant. I lowered my hands and made myself appear calm.

"Boy... May I speak to Gabriel and castiel please" I spoke between gritted teeth. They nodded stifling laughs as I glared their way and they bolted off down the hall. Once they rounded the corner I grabbed both gabes and cas' hands and froze time.

" how can you not remember me?! I've been trying for a month to try and find a way! I thought it would work!!" I screamed and cas cupped my face Inbetween his hand calming me straight away. I looked shocked.

"Madison.... I've missed you so much" he said and kissed me passionately.
