The Journey to You | D.L.

17.

Nick's POV:
Proud was an understatement for how I felt. Demi talking about her bullying stories made me so sad for her.

What people used to say to her really hurt her and I could tell. I was extremely proud to say the absolute least.

I realized that everyone kept kissing Demi's tummy and i thought it was so cute.

I watched all the kids walk off to their next classes and I went up to Demi.

I wrapped my arms around her waist and kissed her neck. She giggled and spun around, wrapping her arms around my neck. I leaned down and kissed her.

We made out for a while until we heard Max asking us if we were ready to which Demi replied to saying, "No not yet I'll be right back just give me like 15 minutes or less!"

And just like that she ran off, and by ran I mean quickly waddled away.

Demi's POV:
I hurried off to the school office because I had a very important question.

When I walked in 2 of the office ladies started whispering to eachother making me giggle quietly.

I walked up to them and asked, "Hello! I was wondering what class Madison De La Garza is in right now?"

"Hi what is your relationship with her? I need to check the files to see if I can tell you any information." One lady said and I mentally rolled my eyes.

"Oh umm, I am Demetria her older sister." I said and she pulled out my little sisters file and went through it.

"From the looks of it you aren't on here." She said looking up at me.

"I swear I am her sister, I have proof of you need it. I just want to check her out for the rest of the day." I asked desperately wanting this to happen.

"Well since I know who you are, i'll let you. But ya better not take her out somewhere and kill her." The lady said and laughed making me smile awkwardly.

"I won't I promise! What class is she in right now?" I asked so I could go get her.

"Room B20, English with Mr. Wilson." The other lady said checking the file. I thanked them and ran off to find my sister.

I walked down what seemed to be B hall and saw the number 20. The door was closed and I was so anxious to go in.

I opened the door and all eyes were on me and a lot of people started whispering. I scanned the room locking eyes on Maddie with a boy.

The teacher looked at me and raised his eyebrow. "Ms. Lovato, to what I owe the pleasure?"

"I'm sorry for interrupting I'm just here to pick up my sister." When he asked me Madison looked up at me and when I responded she grabbed her bag.

Suddenly some teenager girl came up to me and whispered in my ear, "Your music has helped me so much. Thank you for being such an inspiration." and walked away.

How am I am inspiration? No one sees what goes on behind closed doors.

"Cmon Mads lets go." I sweetly said to my sister. I couldn't wait to spend quality time with her.

"Okayyy? Bye Mr. Wilson!" She waves to him and he waved back. He seemed like a sweet person!

Once we got out into the hall Maddie looked up at me and asked, "So what's going on?"

"I just wanted to hang out with you for a little bit without mom or anyone if that okay?" I asked and she nodded excitedly and held my hand like she always had done.

"I'm gonna have Max drop Nick off at our house and then what do you wanna do?" I asked her.

"We should.... go on a hike!" She said and I laughed out loud.

"Do I look like I should be going on a hike to you?" I asked pointing at my stomach.

"Oh yeah oops i forgot. Ummm.. How about we on a picnic in the woods?"

"And get murdered?!?!?" I asked.

"Not everything that happens in true crime happens in real life Demetria." She said laughing and I sighed letting out a fiiiiiine.

We got back to the guys and we got in the car letting them know our plan. Nick thought it was super sweet and he was glad that we got to spend some time together.

When we dropped Nick off Mads and I decided to let Max go home to his family and I would drive us. We snuck in the garage and got in my black convertible.

I drove to the store getting us snacks, and then wherever Maddie told me to go, and we set up our picnic.

"Demi can I ask you a question?" Maddie asked looking at the scenery.

"You just did." I laughed and she rolled her eyes but then I said, "Just kidding. of course babygirl try me!"

"Would you hate me if something ever happened to that happened to you while you were younger?" She asked and I swear I felt my heart drop.

"No I would want to help you. What's going on baby?" I looked at her waiting for an answer.

"Umm I uhh..." She just looked at me with tears in her eyes and she just lifted her shirt up...

Oooo cliffhanger😏
