Hey guys! I HAVEN'T HAD INTERNET SINCE THURSDAY. I PITY MYSELF.

(Same Day)

Dawn's Pov

I quickly ran out of my fourth period class and to Sam's locker. "Hey, Dawn. What's with the hurry?" he asked as I dragged him to the our lunch table. "I'm hungry!" I told him and continued to lead him, ignoring the tingles I felt in my hand.

He chuckled and sped up to keep up with me, "When are you not?" I smile. "When I'm full of course." he chuckles. "You eat so much, yet you stay so skinny. How do you do that?" I smile at him once we sit down with our food.

"It runs in the family." I stated simply. "That isn't fair." I heard Maddi say, dammit. No matter how early I get here. She's always the first one. I laugh, "Why not?" I ask raising my eyebrows at my bestfriend.

"Because, we have to watch our figure. Then there's some girls who are born with a fucking talent of eating and not gaining any weight." she said, slightly pushing her hamburger away. William and Sam didn't notice her action, but I sure as hell did.

William kissed her cheek and whispered something to her, she blushed. I smiled at them and looked over at Sam who was shoveling a hot dog in his mouth. He caught my gaze, "Ew." I stated simply. William and Maddi laughed.

Alex, Amber, and Cat walked up to the table. "Hii!" Cat said enthusiatically. "Sup bro." Alex and Sam did a bro hug, which I always thought was stupid. He then brohugged William. "How's the happy couple?" Amber teased as she nudged Maddi with her elbow.

"Imagine what William's mom is going to say. She has wanted him to date Maddi since the day she met her." Alex said, William blushed like crazy and Maddi laughed at him. We all laughed. "Hey guys!" Tori practically yelled as she and Andre joined us.

We still have to wait for Beck, Jade, and Robbie they have lunch ten minutes after we are released. "Hey Torro." Sam said. "Ugh, do you seriously have to call me that?" she asks. "Does it bother you?" he replied.

She nodded, "Then yes." we laughed at Sam.

*Later that day*

We all agreed on going to William's house, mostly because we wanted to see how Mrs. Olivier would react to her son being in a relationship with Maddi. "I can't wait to see the look on your mom's face." Sam stated.

"Stop it, you guys are making Maddi nervous." he replied chuckling, I smiled as I saw Maddi clutching onto his arm. "Well, I don't know if her 'reacting' is a good or bad thing." she said. "My mom loves you. She once told me that I would only be allowed to date you." we all laughed at his comment.

Once we reached Sam's car, we all piled in and headed towards William's house. "So, Madiam is finally a thing. When is Sawn going to become a thing?" Maddi says, smirk visible in her voice. My eyes widened. "Sawn? Really? That's the best you could come up with?" I asked trying to avoid her question.

She smirked at me, "It's imperfections makes it perfect." she stated with a smile. "I'm a proud Sawn shipper." I looked over at Sam. He was smirking. I slapped him across the chest. What he said hit me hard. I'm a proud Sawn shipper.

He was probably joking, anyway. He just looked over at me and gave me heart stopping smile. When we finally arrived at William's house, we piled out of the car. Everyone was already there. When we entered the house everyone was on the floor playing with Luis's toys. Even Jade.

"William!" Luis screamed and ran towards him with the most adorable smile ever. "Luis!" he said picking him up and resting him on his hip. "That just made him 100 times more attractive. I didn't think that was possible." Maddi whispered to me and I laughed at her comment.

"How you doing, ladies?" Riley said. I groaned, he loves to flirt with, well, all females. "Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?" he asks Maddi and I stifle my laughter. "I haven't heard that one before." she mumbled sarcastically.

"What's that babe? I couldn't hear you over your gorgeousness." wow. "Riley, go flirt with Dawn. Maddi's taken." William said putting his arm around her, still holding onto Luis. "Hi Maddi!" Luis said and reached out for her. She happily took him into her arms.

I smiled, Maddi loves kids. "Hey Dawn, long time no see." Riley said turning to me and putting his arm around my waist. I scoffed, "Yeah, and I tend to keep it that way." I replied as I pushed him away with one finger.

Sam laughed. He was sitting on the couch that was meant for one person, but big enough for two. I sat next to him, "What's so funny?" he smiled at me. "Riley was flirting with you." I groaned. "That kid can not take a hint."

He laughed yet again. "Mom! Come down here real quick." I heard William yell, I smiled at Luis who was covering his ears. She came downstairs yelling about how he has chores to do. Everyone loved Mrs. Olivier. She was like a second mother to all of us.

"Hello youngsters." she always called us that. "What is it? I was in the middle of my nap." we laughed at her. "Rememer when you told me I was only allowed to date if the girl I was dating was Maddi?" he asked and her eyes widened.

"Did it finally happen?" she asks, eyes still wide. "No. I just wanted to remind you." he said sarcastically. She narrowed her eyes at him, "Of course it finally happend." he replied quickly. She smiled the biggest smile I have ever seen and ran over to them, hugging them both. "I knew it!" she yelled.

We all laughed at her, "I'm going to go get my camera." she said running up the stairs. We all laughed. We didn't think she was serious until she came running downstairs with her nokia. We laughed even more.

She quicky snapped a picture of the two. I quickly ran over to see how it came out. Maddi had wide eyes and looked as she had been laughing. And William, he was standing behind her, arms around her waist and placing a kiss on her cheek.

It was adorable. "Awwh. This one's getting framed." I heard Mrs. Olivier say. I giggled. "Well, congratulations." she said giving them one last hug and ran up the stairs to her room. We all burst out laughing after a couple moments of silence.

"That was the best reaction ever." Beck said, we laughed at his comment. "We should have recorded it." Robbie says. Dammit, we should have. "I have it recorded." Amber says holding up her phone. We laugh once more. "I'm hungry." William whines.

After he said that Aalia came running in. "Hey guys." she did a double take when she saw the position William and Maddi were in. "Are you guys, like, together now?" you could practically hear the excitement in her voice.

"Yeah." William's voice was muffled by Maddi's shoulder. "Oh my fucking gosh! Finally." she hugged Maddi. "Good luck putting up with him, Maddi. I promise you'll grow to love him. It took me 17 years." she said making us laugh.

"Hey!" William said mocking hurt. "Don't let her go, William. She better be my sister-in-law in the future." she said warning him. Maddi was the color of a fricking apple. "Now, anybody want food?" she asks and William was the first to agree.

His stomach made the sound of what I imagined to be a dying whale. Maddi laughed, "I could feel the whale inside your stomach." she was pressed up against William. "Does it tickle?" he asks, attempting to walk with Maddi pressed up against him.

They ended up looking like robots but they somehow managaed to get to the kitchen. I slowed my pace, waiting for Sam to catch up. Luis came running up to Sam. He tugged on his jeans, "What's up little buddy?" he said ruffling his hair. He giggled and replied, "Can Eli come over for another playdate tomorrow?"

I smiled at the thought of Eli and Luis. The cuteness would've been to much to bare. "Sure! I'll bring him over tomorrow." he said and Luis thanked him.

"Awwh." I said without thinking. "What?" he asked a smirk playing on his lips. "Luis is so cute, and so is Eli." I say covering up. "People tell me Eli looks just like me. So, that means you must find me cute." I do. "I do not." I reply and his smirk grows.

"Of course you don't." he answers sarcastically.

Maddi's Pov

I looked over at Dawn and Sam. She was blushing and he was smirking. They need to get together soon. I feel as if Dawn and I have switched roles. I become the shipping fangirl and she becomes part of my OTP. (A/N: One true pair, for those of you who don't know.)

I turn to the gorgeousness sitting beside me, also referred to as William, "Hey, so you're friends with Sam?" I ask stupidly. He raises his eyebrows at me and smirks, "And so are you." he replies. I roll my eyes at him.

"No, I mean ,like, guy friend. Like, he tells you stuff." I explain and he just nods. "Does he like Dawn?" I whisper. "I can't tell you that, sorry baby." I smile at the name but quickly frown. "Why not?" I ask pouting my lips.

He just kisses my pouted lips and continues, "Because, he made me swear to secrecy." I groaned. "I'm not kissing you for a whole week." I stated chewing on my pizza. His eyes quickly widened.

"Nooooooooo." he said dramatically. He kissed me and I glared at him. "What? You said you wouldn't kiss me. You never said anything about me not being able to kiss you." he said putting his arms out defenisvely.

"Smartass." I retorted, he smirked and I turned my attention back towards Sam and Dawn who were in a conversation, sat across from us.

I felt a tug on my shirt. I looked down and saw Luis. I smiled, picked him up, and sat him on my lap. "Hi." he said, I laughed "Hi." I replied.

"William likes you a lot." he stated. "Oh does he now?" I said and turned to see William blushing furiously. "Yeah, he never stops saying stuff about you." he said fiddling with his fingers. I smiled, "Well, I like William a lot too."

"Ew. That's icky. William said it was okay because you got your cooty shot." Dawn burst out laughing. "Did Dawn get a cooty shot?" he asks turning his attention to William. "No, Dawn's icky. Only Maddi has a cooty shot."

"That's so mean, I got my shots." Dawn said pointing a finger at William who was smirking. I laughed at her comment. "William thinks you're the prettiest girl ever." Luis whispered to me. William heard him and blushed even harder. "Luis likes a girl named Emily." he stated simply.

"I don't." Luis replies although we all know he's lying. "She sounds very pretty, Luis." his face turned a light shade of pink. "I'm going to play with my trucks." he said getting off my lap, kicking William's leg, and walking away while laughing.

That little boy was awesome. "Ow, that actually hurt." William called after him and we heard his evil laughter coming from the living room. "Can I have your little brother?" Amber said and we laughed at her comment.

"That little man is awesome." Robbie stated. We laughed. Once everyone was done eating we headed towards William's movie room. He only had 8 chairs in the movie room so I had to sit on his lap and Tori had to sit on Andre's lap.

I didn't really mind though. I loved the movie room, it was like an actual movie theater, except mini. It was dark and had chairs that were soft and had cup holders, there was a shelf filled with movies on the side, a projector screen, surrond sound system, and a popcorn maker.

"You really go all out." I whispered to William. He looked over at me, "Why are you whispering? We haven't even chosen the movie yet." Even in the dark I could still see his smirk. "Well, it looks a lot like the real thing, it's sort of like a habit of whispering." I stated.

He laughed at me, "You are so cute." I kissed his cheek right when the movie started. Mean Girls. I laughed and Dawn turned around in her chair to high five me. I slapped her hand and she turned back around.

"This movie again?" I heard Sam groan and he pouted to Dawn who was to engrossed in the movie to even listen.

"Wait, I just realized something." I said turning to my boyfriend. Oh, god I love saying that. Our roles were reveresed, he was resting his head on my chest and I was holding his shoulders. I silently laughed at our position, "Yes?" he asks watching the movie.

"You have the movie Mean Girls in your collection?" I asked smirking, "Uhh.." he trailed off. I laughed silently again. "My sister made me watch it. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would've been." I smiled and kissed his head.

He's the meaning of perfection. I will never admit this to anyone but I've akways wanted a guy who could quote the movie Mean Girls. And appearantly, William can. "You go Glen Coco." I heard him whisper. I laughed, maybe a little too loudly. "I can see you blushing." I told him.

William, Dawn, Tori, Robbie, and I sang along with Damian when he sung Beautiful. I ended up laughing my ass off. William joined me and eventually so did everyone else. William wrapped his arms around my waist and held me tight.

I smiled and continued watching Mean Girls. I took in everything around me. Everything in my life is finally turning around. No more beatings or being locked in a basement. No more pain other than the ones from memories.

Instead, I have a boyfriend who cares for me, his mother and father who treat me like I'm their own daughter, Aalia, Riley, and Luis who also treat me as if I'm a part of their family.

"Baby, why are you crying?" I heard William ask. I was crying? I reached up and sure enough my cheek was soaking. It was a good thing the movie was too loud for them to hear me cry. "I-I.." I trailed off.

"Are you having a panic attack?" he asked. All I could do was nod. I've been having them more frequently. He hugged me tightly, lifted me and carried me out of the room without the others noticing. He always succeded in making me feel better, but it took a while.

I cried into his shoulder. "Shh. It's okay. Everything's alright, baby." I was shaking so badly. He entered what I think was his room. I couldn't tell with the tears blurring my vision. Instead of seeing tears in my eyes, my vision morphed into a memory.

This memory was the most painful. It was one of the first beatings I've ever rescieved from my supposedly 'loving' parents. My dad had just came home from work. He whispered something to my mother and she gasped. "You lost your job? You're such an idiot!" she yelled at him. He turned to me and narrowed his eyes at me.

"It's all your fault." he said pointing a finger at me, his voice filled with anger and danger. I was so scared so I ran to my room. My room didn't have a lock so he easily came in and slapped me across the face.

I remember the thoughts I was thinking that day.

Why does daddy hate me?

Ouch that hurt.

I thought he loved me.

He told me that he loves me, it was just a mistake.

He apologized to me the next day, me being the stupid 7 year old I was I accepted the apology. He lasted a week before the beatings started again.

I shudderd at the horrible memory. I opened my eyes and wiped my tears away. I was in William's room and the lights were off. I was tucked under his blanket. I quick;y, and in fear, ran out of his room and to the living room. "William where are you?" I asked.

"I'm over here, baby." he said coming out of the kitchen and hugging me. "I was just getting you some coffee." I smiled at him and hugged him. "Where are the others?" I asked, "They all went home. Don't worry. None of them know about your little panic attack." he said.

"You should go rest. I'll bring you up your coffee in a second." I nodded and he kissed my forehead. I went up to his room and laid down on his bed.

I was about to fall asleep beforeI heard footsteps coming up the stairs. I gulped, then relaxed remembering that I'm not at my house. I'm at William's, the only safe place I have. I smiled as William entered the room with the coffee.

"Hey." I said quietly, "Feeling better?" he asks me and I nod. "Good. Here's your coffee." he handed me the mug. I laughed when I saw the mug, it was a Doctor Who mug. "I thought you'd like it." he said sitting down at the edge of the bed by my feet.

"Well, you thought right." I said before taking a sip and burning my tongue. I put the coffee on the night stand. "Oww." I said fanning my tongue and William laughed at me. "Did my baby burn herself?" he asks in a baby voice.

I laugh and smack his chest. "How long was I asleep?" I asked him. "About 20 minutes." I nodded. "Sorry." I said and he looked at me.

"For what?" he asked confused. "For being such a bother. I'm beginning to have more panic attacks and I don't want to annoy you with them." he laughed and laid down next to me, wrapping his arms around my waist. "You aren't a bother. And you could never get annoying. Do you really think I mind holding you close to me and trying to put a smile on your face?" he looks at me, kisses my cheek, and continues. "I love making you smile."

I smile at him and eventually doze off to sleep in his arms.

Why do you think Maddi is having panic attacks? Do you think something's wrong?

Maddi: I hope not.

Me: Well, I guess we'll find out.

William: There's a lot of kissing and touching in this chapter.. Can't wait for future chapters.

Maddi: Perv.

*Insert famous William smirk here*

Beck: That smirk is going to get stuck on your face.

William: You sound like my mother.

Mrs. Olivier: That's a good thing.

*Everyone laughs*

Me: Bye.
