Addy works at the dance studio, Forever Young. She works until midnight every night, making dance routines, ordering stuff for dance competitions and making the schedules for what teacher gets what time slot. She works every day after school to make money for meet and greet tickets to see Shawn Mendes. His music saves her from doing horrible things and keeps the bad thoughts away. Her 2 brothers who are 18 and 22 mostly take care of her. Their father is a drunk and their mother is a doctor. She works nearly 100 hours a week and is barely home. School is rough for her, kids bully her. She stays strong, and Noah does his best to get the bullies to back off since they are all a year or two older than Addy.

                              Addys POV:

I step into the dance studio, the loud music filling my ears. I can't help but smile, even after the bad day I had. Marcus and Evan started their nasty bullying again, this time Noah wasn't there to help.

They pushed me around and I didn't even let Noah know. I'm just so tired of trying to get them to stop. After school instead of dropping my stuff off at home, I headed right for the studio instead. I had a bag that I left there with my dance stuff in it.

As the music stops, I grab my stuff and put my backpack down, then go change. I go to the front of the class.

"Alright! So today we're working on a new routine to Stitches by Shawn Mendes!" I say smiling at my class.

They were all girls around my age that went to school on the other side of our town. As the music starts, I begin to show them each of the moves I worked hard on. We run through each step several times. When class ends, Ms. Harrison approaches me as the class grabs their things and leave for the night.

"Here, this is your check, plus a bonus. You earned this Addy. Keep up the great work and we'll discuss a raise next week. I'm so proud of you Addy! I hope this is the rest of what you need for those Shawn Mendes meet and greet tickets!" Ms. Harrison says with a big smile on her face.

I hope the checks and nearly cry. I finally have enough for the tickets!

"Oh my god! Thank you, Ms. Harrison! This is more than I needed! Way more!" I say Teary-eyed.

I wipe my tears as she says, "You deserved this! You're here more than any other student teacher is. You're also in high school, juggling a lot for a junior."

"I just really want this and you made this possible!" I say giving her a big hug.

She hugs back and smiles, "Now go get that into your account so you can tickets before they are sold out!"

I nod and wave to her as I grab my things. I get into my car and head to the bank to deposit my checks into my account. Since it's after hours, I use the ATM to deposit my checks. I head home after, I enter my house. My father is asleep drunk on the couch. I sigh and head to my room. 

I go shower, then head to bed as I'm about to shut my light off there's a knock on my door.

"Come in!" I call out, exhausted.

My door opens and reveals my brother Todd.

"I made your favorite for dinner."

"I'm not hungry Todd, I need sleep please leave," I say laying down yawning.

"You need to eat Addy," he says.

"Todd go away, I'm going to bed," I say turning my back to him.

"Okay...goodnight," He says, shutting my light off then my door.

Silent tears began to fall, little did he know the bullying today was the worst I've ever encountered so far, they called me fat, ugly, worthless and a waste of space. I was too afraid of what Noah would do to them so I kept it to myself.

Todd couldn't help really. Ones underage. The other is Todd's best friends 18-year-old younger brother. I grab my laptop off the chair next to my bed, sitting up. I went to the ticket site and purchased my VIP meet and greet tickets. Then I put my laptop away and cried myself to sleep.

I don't know how much more I can take before I snap and go off the deep end.

A/n Hello readers! Here is my newest Shawn Mendes Fanfiction!

Thoughts?

Do you think Addy will tell Shawn about her life when they meet?

Should Addy tell Noah and Todd about Marcus and Evan?

Low key she doesn't want to
