Guess who's back, back again...

Here we go guys! I'm finally gonna start updating again!

Maddison's POV

It has been a few weeks since I left Marshall. I'm not gonna lie, it hurts and it hurts a lot but life goes on and I have stuff to do.

With courage and a bowed head I managed to get one of my jobs back, thankfully Luke (for those who forget my ex-boss and the guy I threw coffee at) seemed to actually like me and was more than glad to get me back.

Guess I would no longer be the shoe girl...

Eh. Maybe change is good and honestly this jobs pays much better than the shoe one, the only reason I kept working there was because of Lindsay.

After the first week I realized I wasn't gonna be able to live in the apartment I chose, it was too far from everything and a pain in the ass, and that's ignoring the fact I got mugged three times.

They didn't get much out of it besides a chap-stick, two mints and a cookie.

Xavier told me I could move in with him only if I cooked, cleaned and did his laundry, a deal I gladly took.

So that's basically been my life for the past week, working and studying, along with the chores.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I walk inside the hair salon and look around.

"Hello miss can I help you?" a pretty blonde asks me smiling.

"Yes I would like to dye my hair" I tell the woman smiling back.

She jumps up excitedly "Finally I've been waiting forever to dye someone's hair!"

I frown "You've never dyed anyone's hair before?"

"Oh no I didn't mean it like that, it's just been so long since someone let me dye their hair, last time I didn't do such a great job but I promise it will be amazing" she explains her eyes pleading.

I sight "Sure let's do it"

She grins widely and grab my hand, dragging me to the back of the salon.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I look at the mirror and smile, liking the reflection but still not used to it.

"Do you like it?" Melissa, the pretty blonde that dyed my hair asks.

I nod "It's very different but I love it"

My hair is not brown or falling at my waist anymore, instead I cut it in a degrade and it stops a few inches above my waist.

The brown is gone and replaced by pitch black hair. The real kicker is that the end of my hair is a beautiful turquoise, going unevenly around my hair, like a tie and dye.

"You look gorgeous" Melissa comments touching my hair.

"Thank you" I reply smiling.

After paying and saying goodbye to her I leave the salon, feeling completely different.

This is the start of a new beginning and hopefully a good one too.

"Maddie!" Luke yells from the back of the coffee shop.

I look around the store at notice it's basically empty beside an old lady who just got her coffee. 

I make my way to the back of the shop and stop at his door frame.

He keeps his eyes glued on the computer "I have an event tomorrow and I was wondering if-"

He doesn't finish his sentence since his jaw is hitting the floor and he is now staring at my hair.

I smile "Will my hair be acceptable?"

He nods and slowly starts closing his mouth. I walk up to him and sit in front of him, smiling sweetly at him.

Luke truly was a really nice guy, he gave me rides to my university, he even gave me free passes so I could study for exams. He has helped me a lot for the past weeks.

"It's very exotic but really fits you, I think you're the only person who can pull off blue hair" he comments.

"So what event is it?" I question.

"It's a charity event for the orphanages around New York, the money collected will be given to them" he explains.

I smile sadly "That's really nice. So why did you call me?"

"Oh yeah, I know you can sing and our singer just bailed on us so perhaps you could replace her?" he asks softly, waiting for my reaction.

I bite my lip "I would love to but I don't have anything to wear"

He grins "Don't worry, I'll get a dress along with everything else necessary sent to your apartment tomorrow"

I roll my eyes "Fine then, I'll be your singer. I'll also need the list of songs"

He extends his hand towars me and I shake it.

"We have a deal then"

I nod smiling. What have I gotten myself into?
