A/N: This book will more than likely only have 40 chapters before I end it but I WILL be doing a sequel.

Enjoy.

Madison sat cross legged on her bed, guitar in her lap and song book laid out in front of her. She was trying to write a new song so she had more of a variety to choose from when she went on tour with Dom.

She had several lyrics written but didn't know how to place them in an order that made sense. She had never had this much trouble before when writing a song.

She had gotten so stuck that she called out to her boyfriend who sat across the room, spinning around in the chair at her makeup vanity, twirling her eyeliner around in his fingers. "Dom, come here for a minute. I need your assistance."

Dom stopped spinning and got up to his feet before he made his way over to her and sat down on the bed. She slid her song book closer to him so he could have a look.

"I have half of it written. Tell me what you think." She grabbed her guitar pick and began playing the tune she had came up with while writing.

"I couldn't tell you, why she felt that way. She felt it everyday." She began singing, keeping her eyes glued to the song book so she wouldn't make eye contact with him and get distracted.

"And I couldn't help her, I just watched her make the same mistakes again." She continued before searching through the lyrics she had written down to find the part that she thought fit the best.

"What's wrong, what's wrong now? Too many, too many problems. Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs." She finished, that being all that she could come up with.

Dom was quick to put in his input, signaling for her to keep playing before his beautiful voice began to fill her ears. "She wants to go home, but nobody's home. That's where she lies, broken inside."

Dom took her pen and wrote that down on her paper with a small grin. It took him only a couple minutes to come up with more, Madison amazed by his talent. "With no place to go, no place to go. To dry her eyes, broken inside."

"Open your eyes, and look outside. Find the reasons why, you've been rejected. And now you can't find, what you left behind." She added, loving the song that they were creating together. It was now her favorite song.

"Be strong, be strong now. Too many, too many problems. Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs." Dom continued, a bright smile on his face as Madison began writing down every word they came up with.

"Her feelings she hides, her dreams she can't find. She's losing her mind, she's falling behind." Madison found it so much easier to write when she was writing with Dom.

"She can't find her place, she's losing her faith. She's falling from grace, she's all over the place, yeah." Madison finished, writing down the last verse before looking up to meet Dom's gaze.

"You have to perform that while we are on tour. I fucking love it." She loved the fact that he approved, but loved the fact that he had helped write it even more.

"Only if you perform it with me." That could be the last song she performed before it was his time to shine. She was secretly hoping that he would agree.

"Sure. But you have to perform one of my songs with me." Madison began laughing, her smile widening as she thought about his request. She loved all of his music, how could she say no?

"Okay, but which one?"

Dom gave it some serious thought before a lightbulb went off in his head and he looked over at her with a bright smile. "Casual Sabotage."

Madison actually knew every word of that song by heart, it was one of her favorites by him. "Okay, deal. But we need to figure out who sings what of these songs."

"That's easy. Follow my lead." Dom reached out to take the guitar from her before beginning to play the acoustic version of the song.

"Hiding here in camouflage, when they said that they want me, you love me, you need me. Call it casual sabotage, you think that it's easy."

Madison sat there and listened to Dom's magical voice with a bright grin. It was like her very own personal concert. She always wanted to go to one of his shows and now it was up close and personal.

"I'm tryna get to sleep with the lights on, cause I am confused and I'm frightened. I'm tryna get to sleep with the lights on, I don't understand this on my own" Dom sang with so much passion which tugged at Madison's heart.

"I'm just a messed up kid, with sewn up lips. I can't take this shit, I need to exist"

When Dom opened his eyes and signaled for her to sing, she took a deep breath before going ahead. "Sitting staring at my watch, I can't tell if it's morning or midday or evening. The pressure got my head in knots, I don't always deceive it"

Dom looked so happy to hear her singing the words that meant so much to him. He waited for her to finish before continuing, with her singing backup vocals.

"I'm just a messed up kid."

"I won't ever hide alone."

"With sewn up lips."

"He took my heart and cut it out."

"I can't take this shit."

"Breakin' for the two of us."

"I need to exist."

"Broken until there's only dust."
