I Hate You, Don't Leave Me ~ Nemi

Disappointment

DEMI P.O.V.: Max helped me to get Nick into the house after he spent the whole trip back home singing out loud every single song the radio played. I had a headache because of him.

"You'll be fine?" I nodded at Max and he left the house. I locked the door and turned around to find Nick standing there glancing at me with a smile on his lips.

"Stop smiling like an idiot Nick, you're drunk and I hate that." I started walking to the bedrooms upstairs when he hugged me from behind.

"Forgive me for being drunk. You're the best friend someone could ever have, I'm happy to be that someone." I smiled at his words and continued walking upstairs with his arms wrapped around me. "Tell me something...I wanna hear your voice."

"I'm tired and you're wasted as fuck, we better sleep already." Once we got to the hall he let go off me and I turned around to face him. He chuckled and bit his lip staring at me, causing me to frown. "Why's that face?"

"Have I told you that you have such bright and cute eyes?" I blushed and shook my head. "Well, you do. They're so..."

"So...?" I whispered and he walked closer to me to caress my cheek with one hand.

"They're a mistery." He shook his head smiling and walked to his room not saying more.

I walked confused to my room and he said loud enough for me to hear.

"Thank you for being my Demi. And making sure I don't die." I laughed and cleared my throat.

"Well, it's an honor, my Nick." I said back to him and got into my bed before hearing him whisper softly.

"She said my Nick." With a soft giggle that made my smile.

An hour later I was already sleeping when someone knocked on my door making me wake up. I sat up straight and the door opened to reveal Nick.

"Nick, what are you doing still awake?"

"I couldn't sleep. Am I bothering you?" I sighed.

"No, come in. What happened now?" He shrugged and sat on the bed beside me.

"I was thinking about that boy that didn't show up..."

"Mike." I said and he nodded. "What with him?"

"You know? I'm sorry for him...he lost his chance to go on a date with you, he shouldn't have." I smiled and shrugged.

"It was just a date with me, nothing too big anyways." He chowed down on his lip and played with his fingers on the bed. "What are you thinking of?"

"Uh nothing, you deserved better than him anyways."

"I guess so."

"I just want to make sure you keep in mind that you did nothing wrong. He's an idiot for losing his chance with you, you're amazing and beautiful and funny and I don't know how many other great things. Don't feel sad because of it, he's a loser." I nodded with teary eyes and kneeled to hug him.

"Thank you. I don't know what I did right to have you as my friend but I'm glad I did."

"Me too." He whispered and kissed my forehead. "Now, you can continue sleeping."

"Okay thanks, you get some sleep too."

"I will." He walked to the door and turned his head. "Bye Dem Dem."

"Bye." I smiled at him and he left the room silently.

I went back to sleep feeling the most lucky girl in the world for having him as my friend. He was an angel in my eyes.

The next morning I woke up not too early but obviously, my wasted friend, was still asleep. I walked downstairs and made us breakfast, nothing fancy. Two cups of coffee, toasts with ham, juice and bowls with fruits.

I checked on my phone to see if Mike read my texts, he didn't. I frowned and wrote another one.

From Demi to Mike ~ I hate to be like this but I know I deserve better than you and it was a pleasure to meet you but that's all for me.

I hit 'send' and felt a phone vibrating on the table beside me. I glanced at it, it was Nick's phone. Probably Joe was texting him.

From Demi to Mike ~ Wish you the best always, bye xx

Another vibration beside me caused me to frown. That was weird. I walked to the phone and grabbed it before lighting the screen. It was blocked but that didn't stop me from reading "Demi Lovato: 2 new messages."

My world suddenly went all black, I didn't understand what was happening until the truth hit me. It was him. Nick was Mike, or Mike was Nick. They are the same person, that's the reason why Mike never showed up and Nick was casually there to save the night. That's also the reason why Joe pushed Nick when he was about to tell me the truth. That's the reason why I felt comfortable with Mike, like if I knew him from another life. It was always Nick.

I grabbed his phone and started heading upstairs.

NICK P.O.V.: I woke up with a huge hangover and it took me a while to adjust my eyes to the light that entered through the window. My clock said "10:34 a.m." and I felt like trash. I tried ti remember what happened the night before but my brain was dead. I couldn't remember a single thing. I went all happy when the door opened and Demi entered, but everything went away when she stared at me with furious and teary eyes.

"Demi?" I asked and she threw my phone to the bed.

"I think you have some explaining to do."
