Not About Angels (Only Human sequal)

Chapter 20

(Demi's pov)
I'm not sure why I never answered Selena. Why would she drop that big of a bomb on me before her wedding? It's all about her today. It's HER day and she tells me she has cancer.

All through the service I couldn't even think straight. I think I even shed a couple tears. Most people probably though it was just because everyone cries at weddings. But it was because once again I might lose someone I love deeply.

The reception wasn't much better but eventually I decided to just push the information to the back of my mind until tomorrow.

"Now the bride would like maid of honor to give a toast." the DJ said handing me a microphone. Everyone stared at their glasses of wine waiting for me to talk.

"Alright well, hi." I said to everyone. "I uh, did have this big speech prepared to welcome Selena and nick together into our family I guess. But that would be weird because they're both already my family.

I'm Nick's sister in law and Selena's best friend and they started dating a couple years ago. And uh, they're pretty perfect. I mean what guy goes through all the trouble to put a ring in a girls Fried chicken?" this made everyone laugh.

"I'm not really sure where I'm going with this.. But I just want to say Nick, you're like a brother to me and Selena, you're," I took a deep breath and a small tear fell. "You're the closest thing to a sister that I've ever had. And you've been there for me for... everything." I sounded like a mess. "I can't believe you didn't tell me about the cancer." I blurted out.

Everyone gasp and I suddenly realized what I said. "I-I'm sorr-" I dropped the microphone and ran out of the room & straight into the bar. "can I please get a shot of tequila?" I asked. "or 3" I said.

The bar tender obeyed and poured me 3 shots. I gulped them all down within 10 seconds. "can I have more?" I asked.

"No she doesn't want anymore." I heard Joe say. "you're right just the bottle please." I asked taking it from the bar tender and got in 3 huge gulps before Joe made his way over to me and grabbed it.

"Demi come on. We're going home. The girls are gonna stay the night with my mom and we're going home to talk." he said. I obeyed him as he grabbed my hand and took me out to the car. I ruined my best friend's wedding.

(Nick's pov)
"Sel.." I said to her as we sat on the plane to the Bajamas. "Nick don't. Just let these 2 weeks be about us." Selena said.

I smiled and kissed her forehead. "Anything for you." I told her. She stared out the plane window. "Everything looks so small." Selena pointed out. "it kinda makes it less sad." she said.

"what do you mean?" I asked her.

"When I die. I'll just be leaving nothing. Or at least I want to think that anyhow." she told me.

"Are you scared to die?" I asked her. I didn't mean to either it just slipped out. Too late to take it back.

"No." she said. Selena didn't sound mad but then again she never gets mad. "Just scared of dying before I ever really do something important with my life. Like have a baby or write a book. Or something. I'm scared of being forgotten." she said.

"Selena you'll never be forgotten. And I'll make sure you leave a good legacy." I told her and kissed her cheek.
