Only One- Demi Lovato and Wilmer Valderamma

Demi

    Wilmer got home half an hour ago, and didn't even look at me. If he had, he would've seen the tear tracks on my face or the betrayal in my eyes. He didn't walk into the bedroom, he would've seen his bags in a pile stuffed full of his clothes. He got a beer, and sat on the couch, watching T.V as he nursed it.

"Wilmer?" My voice sounded, cracking from the lack of use.

He sat up straight and looked at me in shock. Once he had registered that I had actually spoken, and that I was crying, he stood up and took a step towards me. "Demi? What happened?"

I backed away from him, "Where were you last night?"

He froze, his entire body tensing up, "Demi..." He choked out, but I shook my head.

"No Wilmer. Tell me where you were last night."

He bowed his head, speaking in a low tone, "You know the answer to that nena."

I felt my breath catch, and my heart nearly stopped. He was cheating on me. An affair. He had sex with another woman, more than once.

"How long?" My voice was filled with pain, but I kept my tears at bay.

"Two months."

I inhaled sharply, another shock of hurt rippling through me. We had put our son in the ground two and a half months ago. "Why?"

He looked bemused, "I don't know."

For the first time, anger pulsed through me, "Was I not enough for you? Did I suffice for your needs?! Did you forget what HAPPENED two months ago?!"

I stood up and turned to leave, "Demi, please wait-"

I whipped around, "Wait?! Wait for what?! Wait for you to make another mistake? You told me, you swore to me in the promise of marriage that you would be faithful to me. That you would never do this to me. For better or for worse! Does that mean nothing to you?! Sorry Wilmer, but I don't have time for your mistakes, go back to your slut. I hope you two are very happy together." He closed his eyes and I made a noise of disgust, "Your bags are packed, I'm going to my mom's. I don't want you here in the morning." He just looked at me with tears in his eyes, but his pain was nothing compared to the hurt I was feeling, so I decided to twist the knife again, "Forever huh?" I shook my head, "I guests that means nothing now."

He bowed his head as I walked out, slamming the door behind me.

    I drove to my mom's, trying to hold onto my anger so I wouldn't break down in my car while I was trying to drive. At last, I pulled in the driveway. It was past midnight, so I knew they would be asleep, but that didn't stop me from knocking on the door loudly until my mom sleepily opened it. Her eyes widened at the sight of e, tear marks down my face and looking like I would break at any moment. I let out a sob and she pulled me inside, sitting on the couch and holding me tightly.

"What happened Demi? What's wrong?"

I just shook my head, "Everything." As the words left my mouth I burst into tears again and buried my face into her shoulder. After about ten minutes, I pulled away, trying to wipe my fast-falling tears. "Wilmer... He..." Another whimper. "He's been cheating on me mom. Ever since a couple of weeks after we lost Luca... He's been cheating on me."

My mom's jaw dropped and she opened her arms, letting me lean into her again, "Oh Demi, I'm so sorry."

I sniffled, "I guess, I mean... I shouldn't of been os shocked. I mean..." I wiped my eyes, "I haven't spoken to him since that day in the hospital. But before that happened he deliberately promised me that he would never do this to me. He married me for God's sake. We're supposed to be supportive of each other, not leave and get drunk and not come home! I just... I can't believe this. This is Wilmer! He's supposed to be my person. He was my rock. I can't believe he would do this to me."

My mom patted my back, "I know sweetie, I know it hurts."

I sighed, "God is it bad that I don't hate him? I just... I feel so betrayed. He cheated on me." I shut my eyes, squeezing tears out of them, "Why does this hurt so bad?"

She looked me in the eyes, "Because of how much you still love him."
