Demi's pov
"Home sweet home" I sigh happily as I look around in the tiny room that I call my house.
"Mhm" Eva says "I loved spending time with your parents but being back in Texas makes me feel so happy and all."
"yeah... but at this moment I can't be really happy" I say as worry over-whelms me. Tonight I have to go back to the club I was working for and tell my boss that I'm gonna resign and as most people probably know; it's not easy to get away from the stripper life.
"I know"Eva places a kiss on my fore-head "But I will be there for you. Every step of the way: Tonight at the strip club, when you bring out your return album, whenever you need me. I will be there for you every morning when you get out of bed and every evening when you get in bed. I will be there for you, Demi. I love you okay? And I want you to promise me something."
"Anything for you, babe"
"I want you to stop" Eva looks into my eyes "I want you to stop hurting yourself. I want you to stop doing drugs. I want you to stop doing alcohol. I want you to stop cutting yourself. I want you to stop blaming yourself for whatever happened in the past."
I feel some tears coming up as I shake my head "I can't Eva, I can't"
"Yes you can! We can actually, I will be with you in your recovery. Like I already said: I will be with you every step of the way. So please promise me you will at least try to stop."
"And what if I dont want to stop?" I say as I look at the ground.
"Well... uhm I don't know. Lets see if in a half year you haven't tried to stop yet I will sign you up for rehab or I will break up with you. So its your choice Demi. I just really, really want you to stop so you can be truly happy."
I sigh. I of course dont want to lose Eva but neither do I want to lose my habits. But for Eva's sake I just nod and hug her.
After we ate dinner and went for a walk we ended up going to the club. My hands were shaking as we both walked inside, looking for my boss.
At some point I saw him and I immediately grabbed Eva's hand so I could not only mentally but also physically feel her support.
"Hello Demi, long time no see" My boss ,Matt, greeted me "Well at least not in real life. I think you and I have to discuss some stuff." Some blew the smog of his cigar in my face.
He walked towards his office and Eva and I followed him.
"So Demi..." He started as litted up another cigar "I saw you on tv, wanting to go back to your old work huh?"
"Yeah actually..." I say, not really understanding if Matt is happy for me or if he's not so content with it.
"Well that's not gonna happen"
Okay so he's obviously not content with it.
I look dow at the table looking for an answer as I hear Eva clear her throat. "And why not?"
Matt's narrowing his eyes "Because I need her" He presses his cigar out on the table only to lit up a new one.
"Can you show me the contract?"
Thank God Eva's with me otherwise I had no idea what to do.
"Contract? Contract?! Who do you think you are?" Matt screams as he stands up from his chair, his finger pointing towards Eva.
"I'm just a human being who wants to see my girlfriend happy while living her dream instead of stripping and sleeping with others. And your reaction makes me think you dont have a contract ,which means you cant keep Demi here, or the contract is illegal, so that would give me the abillity to call the cops. So its your choice: You let Demi go or I'll call the cops."
"Mhm you're very pithy"Matt grumbles "I could use one like you too here."
Eva rolls her eyes"The world could use less people of you here."
"Lets just go babe" I say and grab Eva's hand. We walk towards the door and leave but not before Eva has turned around one more time and told Matt that he should stay away from or otherwise she'd know some people at the police station.
We're just about to walk home as Eva phone goes off. "Hello this is Eva Hemmings speaking... oh my David... yeah sure... see you soon" Eva puts her phone back. She looks at me and I notice the tears in her eyes before she starts speaking "Demi... I cant believe this. David ,my twin brother about who I told you, just called me. I haven't seen him anymore since that day at the church. He... uhm wants to speak to me and says it's really important so Im going to las rosas, that caffee on the other side of the street, right now, if you're okay with it?"
"Yeah yeah sure" I manage to smile "Im happy for you"
"Okay, love you Demi" Eva places a kiss on my cheek and runs off.
I watch as she gets smaller and smaller and eventually I dont see her anymore. I let out a deep sigh. I want to recover for Eva but she doesn't make it easy for me by leaving me alone. If Eva was here I could kiss her lips, now my lips are longing to go around a bottle of alcohol. If Eva was here I could smell her parfume, now my nose is wanting to snuff some drugs. If Eva was here I could wrap my arms around her, now my left hand demanding itself the cut my right wrists.
My thoughts get interrupted by fastened footsteps behind me. Thinking it is Matt, I start running. I run and run and run but the person behind me is going faster and faster and eventually I feel his arm shoving me around.
"Well hello" A deep voice says.
This is definitely not Matt.

But who is it? Any idea's? You probably know if you've read the previous chapter, but idk if you all still remember that chapter or even this story since it has been way to long. I guess I owe you all an explanation... I was busy with school, work and recovery but that aren't really excuses I guess. This school year is ending in 1,5 weeks which means I will update more frequently. I promise I will update a lot. sorry....
