Lovato [One Shots]

Secret Romance [Part 2]

The lunch you had a week ago was completely uneventful, other than Matthew trying to pry information out of Demi. He's convinced that she's seeing someone, which she is, but you and Demi had vowed to keep your relationship a secret for now. You wanted to make sure that you would work before letting the world know. You didn't want to ruin anything before it really began.

"Oh god" Demi released a breath as she lay beside you. You smiled as you stared up at the ceiling. "That was amazing" your smile widened as you turned to her.

"What can I say? I'm just that good" she nibbled on her lip as she turned to meet your gaze. She leant in to press a peck to your lips and then cuddled herself into your side. You lay there in silence until the sound of the doorbell rang through the house.

"I should probably get that" Demi detached herself from you and rolled out of bed. She grabbed her shirt and shorts that had been discarded when your escapades started an hour ago. You watched her, your eyes roaming over her luscious curves. "Okay, I'm coming" she grumbled as the doorbell rang again. She leant over to peck your lips, giggling as she headed out of the room. You watched her as she left and rolled out of bed. You started to pull on your jeans, but as you went to fasten them, you was interrupted by Demi's loud voice filtering up the stairs. "NO, MATTHEW" you grabbed your shirt to cover your naked chest, just in time for the bedroom door to swing open.

"I KNEW IT" you found your cheeks blushing and you bit down on your lower lip. You glanced to meet Demi's gaze as Matthew did his little happy dance. She flashed you a tiny smile but you just shook your head and glanced down at the floor. "How long has this little thing been going on?" Matthew's eyebrows raised as he glanced between you both with a smirk.

"Not that long" you nibbled on your lower lip as you glanced up and instantly met Demi's gaze.

"Yeah, it-it's a relatively new..."

"Don't even think about lying to me."

"3 months" the smirk on Matthew's face spread into a wide smile.

"I can't believe you kept this shit from us" he turned to Demi long enough for you to be able to pull your shirt over your head. "Keeping secrets from me now, Lovato" I glanced to Demi just in time to see her roll her eyes.

"We wanted to keep our relationship a secret, we didn't want to ruin it before it had even started. You can't tell anyone else, Matthew, promise me" he glanced back at you and then back to Demi, the smirk remaining plastered across his face. "We-We don't want anyone else to know yet. We're enjoying the..."

"I promise I will keep quiet" he flashed you a smile.

"Thank you, Matthew" he leant into Demi, his arms around her.

"Oh, this is amazing. I'll meet you downstairs" he laughed as he pulled away from Demi and headed downstairs. You brought your hair up into a ponytail and then glanced to Demi who was stood by the door with a light smile.

"I'm so sorry. I-I tried to stop him from..." you shook your head which cut her off. "Why are you shaking your head?" you stepped towards her and ran your hands along her waist.

"Maybe it wouldn't be too bad if we did start telling people."

"Are you..."

"I love you, Demi. Maybe it wouldn't be too bad if the world knew that" Demi nibbled on her lower lip, her lips twitching lightly at the corners.

"You really want to tell everyone?"

"I want people to know that you're mine" you spoke as you locked your arms around her waist and pulled her flush against your body. "I-I don't ever see my life without you in it. You are my heart and soul. You are already my everything. What's so bad about everyone else knowing that?" her hands ran along your neck, her fingers playing with your ponytail.

"My fans can be very judgemental."

"Have you not read any of the fanfics written about us?" her eyebrows furrowed as you lightly laughed. "There are many fanfics about us together as a couple. I don't think we have anything to worry about, Babe. There probably will be negative comments but we'll just overlook those."

"If you're sure?"

"I love you. I'm sure" she leant up to press a peck to your lips, a wide smile forming on your face.

You had honestly never been so happy.
