Life with Demi Lovato

Chapter 21

cats out of the bag

Hayley's POV

Demi had known for a couple days about Admira and I. She had really been making the effort to make me feel accepted. I was so relieved and felt like all this weight was off my shoulders that I didn't have to hide anything from her anymore and worry about her being disappointed. I'm also glad that Admira is happy that she doesn't feel like I'm hiding her anymore.. except the fact that we hadn't actually told anyone at school yet. But it was obvious that a lot of people were suspicious.

"Something is so going on between to you" Charlotte smilied suggestively. I didn't say anything just blushed and looked down at my school work. I looked back up to see Blake and Jade both looking unimpressed. I knew Jade liked Admira but I dont know what Blake's problem was, he was a good friend and I was hoping he'd be happy for me. My phone pinged and I pulled it out of my pocket and read the message I had just received from Admira even though she was sitting right next to me.

Can we tell them?

I looked up to her and smiled. Giving her a small nod.
She planted a sweet soft kiss on my cheek and an uncontrollable smile crept on my face. I covered my face with my hands. "Aww my god" Charlotte said raising her hand to her heart smiling warmly. Admira took my hand. "I know you guys already pretty much figured it out, but we've been dating for about a month now" Admira smiled "that's awesome, you guys" Tom smiled giving me a fist bump. I chuckled. "Yeah congratulations" Blake gave a small smile then went back to focusing on his work. I looked over at Jade who had a shocked look on her face. She now knew that she had told me how she felt about Admira.. while we were dating. "I'm really happy for you guys" she said through a fake smile hiding her pain. I smiled looking down.

After class finished everyone got up and headed out to go to their next lesson. "Jade wait" I called out. She stopped and took a deep breath as she turned to face me. "Look.. I am so sorry we didn't tell you sooner. I only just told my mum a couple days ago. I wasn't ready to come out"
Jade was silent as she looked down not sure what to say. I waited impatiently for her to speak.
"It's fine. I'm glad you guys are happy" she smiled uncomfortably and walked away. I was pretty unsatisfied with the conversation but it was something.

When school finished Admira and I walked back to my house, "hey Demi I'm home, Admiras here to" I called out as I opened the door. "Hey girls" Demi said sounding stressed. Me and Admira gave each other a concerned look. We found Demi sitting at her laptop with a bunch of paper work. Admira took a seat at the table across from her and I stood behind Demi and gave her a hug from behind so I could get a sneaky glance at the laptop "what's wrong?" I asked.
"Nothing hunny. Just camp stuff" she tried to smile
"What camp?" Admira asked curiously
"It's a 6 week summer camp I run. Every year during the 2 month summer vacation we have kids aged 8-19. It starts in a few weeks it just gets a little stressful this time of year that's all" Demi shrugged. "Your going for 6 weeks?" Admira said a little sadly. "Yeah Hayley and I will be gone for 6 weeks" Demi said looking at her laptop.

Oh shit I thought to myself as I looked at Admira to see her looking at me annoyed and upset. I hadn't told her yet. I'd just forgotten. I didn't even want to go. "Your leaving for 6 weeks? And you didn't tell me?" She said sounding really hurt. Demi looked up from her laptop. "I don't even want to go" I said annoyed "you still have to tell me.. I'm not going to see you for 6 weeks" she said quietly. "You can come hunny" Demi suggested. We both looked at Admira waiting for her answer. "I dont know.." she said unsure "why not? Itll be so fun!" I tried to encourage "everyday we do new activities, there's canoeing, and zip lining and movie nights and a beach camp out! It's so much fun" I smiled excitedly "then... why don't you want to go?" She asked curiously. I looked over at Demi, who knew the answer. But I wasn't ready to tell Admira my story yet. "Um.. because I didnt want to leave you" I partly lied. "Okay.. I'll ask my parents. I know they'll say yes" she smiled "yay" Demi and I both cheered "this will be so much fun" Demi squealed. I honestly started feeling really excited about camp this year. The 2 people I loved most would be with me at camp. Then when camp was over, they would still be a big part of my life.
