Chapter 2

Heaven's P.O.V

"WAAAKE UUUP!" Is what I waken to. It was Taylor yelling at me to get up.

I groaned. "No, leave me alone!" I yelled and pulled the cover's over my head. Everything went silent, so I asummed she left my room. But I was wrong. She came into my room, and blew a freaking air horn in my ear! "What the hell, Taylor?" I shouted.

"Hey, watch your mouth. Now get up. I expect you downstairs 20 minutes, or I will be back up here with this air horn," she warned.

I groaned then got up and got washed and dressed before heading downstairs where Taylor was sitting at the dining room table with multiple books by her side.

I went and sat next to her to start our lessons. Taylor has been homeschooling me for the past month. I don't actually know when I'll be able to go to a real school. Being the daughter of Taylor Swift can be complicated.

"Okay, math!" She said very cheery. That's what I don't understand about Taylor. She is a morning person! Who is a morning person nowadays? I don't know. "Let's start with something simple. 7x+5=166, solve for x."

Simple, the answer is 23. "15" I said confidently.

"No. The answer is 23. Were you even trying?" She asked.

"Yes." No. Okay, you might be wondering why I didn't answer it right, or not, I don't know what goes on in your mind. But if you are, I was the smart kid in school. Got straight A's and was very smart. I still am very smart. But being the smartest wasn't always the best. I sometimes felt out of place. I know being smart is amazing, and I do wanna have a good future, but I'm tired of being the smartest one in the room all the time.

We did a little more math before moving on to science, another subject I love! "Okay, name the planets in order starting with the closest one to the sun."

This stuff is too easy. I just wanna be done for the day. "Mercury, Venus, earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, which is really considered a dwarf planet," I rushed out of my mouth.

"Ummm, that was amazing!" She said really amazed.

"Umm, not really. Taylor, I learned that when I was like eight," which is true.

"Okay."

We finished the rest of the lessons, then we drove to Taylor's studio for my elective, kind of, except I didn't choose music, Taylor did.

"Sing," Taylor ordered pointing towards the booth.

"Taylor, we go through this every day. I do not sing!" And I don't. I used to, but I don't anymore. I was in chorus at school and my church choir. My family revolved around music. Everyone was a singer, musician, or both. Whenever I was singing, I was most likely singing with my family. So when they died, I didn't see a reason to sing anymore, so I don't sing.

"How do you know? Just try! I bet your really good!" I give it to Taylor, she is very persistent. But this is one thing I'm certain about.

"Taylor, I don't sing. Give it a rest!" I shouted a little louder than I wanted to.

"Okay, we'll just continue with the guitar and piano then," she sighed sounding like she was giving up.

I felt bad. I went over and sat on her lap as if I was 3. "Listen Taylor, I'm sorry. It's just, singing reminds me of my family, and I haven't really accepted the fact I'm not going to see them tomorrow, or the day after that, or the day after that." A single tear fell from my eye, in which Taylor wiped it away.

"I understand babe. And I'm sorry as well. Let's just go home." I nodded and we left the studio to go home. After that, we pretty much ate and watched tv until it was time to go to sleep.

***********************************

I was in the studio with Taylor. She was in the booth singing a song I'd never heard before. All of a sudden, hands wrapped around me in a hostile way and began dragging me out of the booth. He had on a mask, so I wasn't able to see who he was.

"TAYLOR!!! HELP!!!!!" I screamed. She just kept on singing. I was kicking and scratching. Trying to get away. I was finally able to get the mask off the guys face. The guy who I realized to be my father. Fear struck me. "TAYLOR PLEASE, HELP ME!!!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. Again, she just looked at me for a second then went back to singing.

She's just letting me go. She's letting me be taken away. I continued screaming as my father kept dragging me.

*************************************

"Wake up babe! Come on babe! Get up!" Taylor was shouting.

I slowly began to open my eyes. Tears stained my cheeks and sweats stained my face. "You let him take me. You left me to f-fend for m-myself," I said getting a little angry.

She tried to come closer to me, but I moved away. "Babe, it was just a dream, I'm right here. I'm always here for you," she begged.

"No! You weren't there for me. You chose your career over me," I scoffed with tears now falling from my face.

Again, she tried to hold me, but i screamed for her to stop. She slowly backed away. She sighed. Dang. It's not like I'm angry with her, I'm just scared.

"I'm sorry. I'm just scared you really will leave me for something that's more important," I said softly.

She kneeled down by my bed. "Babe, nothing is more important to me than you. Nothing!" She said with a tear falling down her cheek. I wiped it away. "You wanna sleep with me tonight?" She asked.

Yes! "No," I whispered. I really do wanna be with her but I'm 13 and that might seem a little weird.

"Are you sure?" She asked not really believing me.

"No," I admitted and looked down at the bed trying to avoid Taylor's gaze.

She lifted my chin meeting our eyes. Her ocean blue eyes that put stars to shame stared into my plain brown eyes. "I don't mind. I wanna be with you. If you wanna sleep with me you can. Do you?" I nodded slowly.

"I knew it. Come on." We walked to Taylor's room and we laid down. I laid my head on her chest and wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Taylor, can you sing to me?" I asked.

She chuckled. "Of course babe.

You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When sky's are grey
You'll never know babe
How much I love you
Please don't take my sunshine away."

With that, I fell asleep.
