I love you guys. Thank you so much for supporting me. I have terrible grades in my classes (just science and English), so I might not get to update for a while.

Kasey was in her bedroom, writing a new song to advocate when her older brother came in. "Hey Kasey. Whatcha working on?" Kasey put down her pencil and faced her brother. "A new song. I'm done with my homework so I have nothing else to work on. What's up?" Kasey asked curiously. "I'm so sorry, but mom asked me to ask you this. How do you feel?" Kasey raised an eyebrow. "Mom asked you, to ask me, how I feel?" she questioned.

"You know," he nudged Kasey. "how's your girl stuff doing?" Michael asked, disgusted. Kasey then realized what he meant.

"Oh, that girl stuff," Kasey spoke, dumbfounded. "It hurts, but I'm fine." she replied with a quick smile on her face. "You know, you could've asked me about my period." her brother put on a disgusted face.

"Periods are gross." he replied. "Semen is gross too, you know." Michael stuck his tongue out, and Kasey had did the same. "Well, you need to study, so I'll leave you alone for now." Michael closed the door as he left the room.

"Have a safe trip home!" Kasey shouted. She had wrote a song for tomorrow. Tomorrow was Monday, and she had to sing her songs every day at lunch because the principal told her to. She originally had sang with a friend, but her friend had moved.

She had wrote the lyrics, but had no idea what to call the song.

She climbed down the bunkbed she and her twin sister had slept in. Her twin sister was on the honors program too, also on the arts program, but was sculpting. They were both aiming for Harvard University.

"Haley, come in here please!" Kasey yelled for her twin. Haley and Kasey were only seven minutes apart. Haley was older, while Kasey was a bit younger. Haley had red highlights in her blonde hair, like her sister. A politely groomed girl came in the room.

"Yes, Kasey?" she asked. Haley was genuinely nice and sweet, often leading to trouble. "Do you know what I should name this song?" Kasey asked.

Haley took the songbook, but Kasey didn't yell. Haley was her twin sister after all. Haley muttered the lyrics, reading along. "Nice song, Kase." she handed the book back to her sister.

"What's the song about, anyways?" she asked. "Well, it's about a girl and a boy who dated for a while, and the boy breaks the girl's heart. So the girl doesn't give a damn anymore." Kasey replied. "Nice. You could name it, 'Really Don't Care.' You do repeat the lyrics, 'I really don't care,' a lot." Haley grinned.

"Thanks." Kasey wrote down the title and went for a patent-pending 'twin hug'. "No problem." Haley moved her ruffled bangs to the side and exited the door.

She entered the door to say something again. "Oh yeah, mom is cooking Dill-Pickle Meatloaf. Ten minutes tops." Haley huffed and exited.

"Dad, I've told you about her, about a million times. She is her room." Austin said bluntly. "I'm sorry that you were born." he furiously stated and hung up the phone.

Ally sneaked down the stairs.

"Ally, I know you were listening," Austin rested his head on his arm.

Ally walked toward Austin. With his back turned against her, Austin ate cereal. "What did you hear?" he coldly asked. "You yelled at your father and you said something about drinking." Ally responded.

Austin almost choked on his cereal. "You weren't supposed to hear that." Ally scoffed. "Austin, I care about you. Please, I'm begging you, please, don't drink anymore." Ally begged.

"No one cares about me anymore, no one loves me." Austin spoke the truth. "I-It's so not true, Austin." Ally stuttered.

"Name one person. Not my father, not any of my friends." Ally put her chin on his shoulder. "Well, I'm pretty sure your mom cared about you, your current girlfriend, and me." Ally responded.

"Thanks for trying." Austin put his arm around Ally. "My pleasure." Ally felt comfortable in his arms for once.

They looked at each other, with glimmer in their eyes.

Austin leaned in closely.

Austin's voicemail on his phone suddenly clicked.

"Hello, Austin? Please call me back."

They quickly separated, and things got awkward.

"Yeah, um, uh, I'm gonna go upstairs now. See you later!" Ally ran upstairs and slammed her bedroom door behind her.

Ally went to school the next day. She was at lunch, eating an apple.

Kasey was singing. "Hi guys, how are you today?" Kasey asked.

"I'll sing two of my songs then I'll take a break and come back." Kasey began to sing.

"Don't try to explain your mind, I know what's happening here. One minute it's love, then suddenly it's like a battlefield. One word turns into a... Why is it the smallest things that tear us down? My world's nothing when you don't... I'm not here without a shield, can't go back now. Both hands tied behind my back with nothing, oh no. These times where we climb so fast, to fall again... Why we gotta fall for it now? I never meant to start a war, you know I never wanna hurt you. Don't even know what we're fighting for, why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? Why does love always feel like... Can't swallow our pride and neither of us wanna raise that flag. We can't surrender, then we're gonna lose what we have, oh no. Both hands tied behind my back with nothing, oh no. These times where we climb so fast, to fall again... I don't wanna fall for it now! I never meant to start a war, you know I never wanna hurt you. Don't even know what we're fighting for, why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? I guess you better go and get your armor, get your armor. I guess you better go and get your armor, get your armor. I guess you better go and get your... We could pretend that we are friends tonight, and in the morning, we'd wake up and we'd be alright. 'Cause baby, we don't have to fight, and I don't want this love to feel like... A battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield. Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? Guess you better go and get your armor. I never meant to start a war, you know I'd never wanna hurt you. Don't even know what we're fighting for, why does love always feel like a battlefield, battlefield, a battlefield? Why does love always feel like a battlefield, battlefield, a battlefield? I guess you better get your armor, get your armor. You better go and get your armor, get your armor."

The students cheered as Kasey bowed. "Thank you, thank you." she drank her water. "The next song is dedicated to my ex, you know who you are." she winked at the crowd.

She sat down on the chair.

"You wanna play, you wanna stay, you wanna have it all. You started messing with my head until I hit a wall. Maybe I shoulda known, maybe I shoulda known, that you would walk out the door. Said we were done, and met someone, and rubbed it in my face. Cut to the part, she broke your heart, and then she ran away. I guess you should've known, I guess you shoulda known, that I would talk, I would talk. But even if the stars and moon collide, I never want you back into my life, you can take your words and all your lies. Oh, oh, oh, I really don't care. Even if the stars and moon collide, I never want you back into my life, you can take your words and all your lies. Oh, oh, oh, I really don't care, oh, oh, oh, I really don't care. I can't believe I ever stayed up writing songs about you, you don't deserve to know the way I used to think about ya. Oh no, not anymore. Oh no, not anymore. You had your shot, had your shot. But you let go. Now if we meet up in the street I won't be runnin' scared, I'll walk right up to you and put one finger in the air. And make you understand, and make you understand. You had your chance, had your chance. But even if the stars and moon collide, I never want you back into my life, you can take your words and all your lies. Oh, oh, oh, I really don't care. Even if the stars and moon collide, I never want you back into my life, you can take your words and all your lies. Oh, oh, oh, I really don't care, oh, oh, oh, I really don't care."

She paused for a moment, then stood up. She began to rap.

"Yeah, listen up. Hey, hey, never look back. Dumbstruck boy, ego intact. Look, boy, why you so mad? Second guessing, but shoulda hit that... Hey, Kasey, you picked the wrong lover, shoulda picked that one, he's cuter than the other. I just wanna laugh, 'cause you're tryin' to be a hipster. Kick him to the curb, take a Polaroid picture."

She began to walk and sing.

"But even if the stars and moon collide, I never want you back into my life. You can take your words and all your lies, oh, oh, oh, I really don't care. Even if the stars and moon collide, I never want you back into my life, you can take your words and all your lies. Oh, oh, oh, I really don't care, oh, oh, oh, I really don't care."

The crowd roared with cheers. "Thank you so much, guys! That song is called, 'Really Don't Care,' I wrote it last night. It'll also be on my next album, called, 'Midnight Fever,' be sure to check that out. Alright, love you guys so much. I'll be right back with a new song." Kasey ran off the stage, ripping off her mic.

"Ally!" Kasey waved into the crowd, hoping to find Ally. "I'm here." Ally shouted, pushing through the crowd.

"Did you like the performance?" Kasey smiled. "Yes, I did." Ally sounded unsure of herself. Kasey laughed, and smiled. "Did you enjoy it or not?" Kasey asked, feeling a giggle tickle her lips. "Your songs are utmost awesome." Ally threw out some vocabulary.

Kasey moved her hair behind her ear. "Well, I would love to write a song with you one day. I hear you're quite the... Artist of songs." Kasey smiled.

"Sure, yeah. Maybe someday." Ally smiled. "Well, see you later." Kasey trampled up the steps to the stage. "Hi, I'm back. This next song is called, 'A Moment Like This,' this song, is one of my personal favorites. Try to sit back and relax." Kasey smiled. She put her mic back on.

"What if I told you, it was all meant to be? Would you believe me? Would you agree? It's almost that feeling, we've met before. So tell me that you don't think I'm crazy, when I tell you love has come here and now. A moment like this, some people wait a lifetime, for a moment like this, some people search forever, for that one special kiss. Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me, some people wait a lifetime, for a moment, like this. Everything changes, but beauty remains. Something so tender, I can't explain. Well, I may be dreaming, but till I awake, can't we make this dream last forever? And I'll cherish all the love we share. A moment like this, some people wait a lifetime, for a moment like this, some people search forever, for that one special kiss. Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me, some people wait a lifetime, for a moment, like this. Could this be the greatest love of all? I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall, so let me tell you this. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. Some people wait a lifetime, for a moment like this. Some people search forever, for that one special kiss. Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me. Some people wait a lifetime, for a moment like this. Oh ohhhh, I can't believe it's happening to me. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. Oooooh-ohhh."

She took off her mic and ran backstage as the crowd cheered. She got undressed and put on her regular school clothes. She rushed to class.
