You're My Little Skyscraper - Demi Lovato Fan Fiction

Chapter 18 - X Factor

Ricky's POV

So it's been about a month now since Reborn has been released and the response has been incredible. I've done a few bits of promo here and there like acoustic sets at stores but nothing massive. This is what I hate about my label, some days their great to me like when it comes to touring but promotion is where they lack... I swear my fans do more promotion than they do.

I was on my way to a store acoustic show and signing. We'd pulled up outside the Hot Topic store in LA to be instantly bombarded with screaming fans and paparazzi as soon as I got out the car.

"Rick! Rick! Can we get a photo?!" - A few dozen people screamed over at me.

"Course you can!!" - I said with a smile as I walked over to stop and take a few pictures before waving and walking inside. Now what I kinda love about this store is that it's not massive, so today was sort of an intimate performance with my fans. The store was open so even the people outside could be a part of it.

I walked in and saw my fans sat around everywhere, on the floor, on the sides, just everywhere. I ran around giving everyone high fives, I honestly don't think I missed everyone. When I got to the front I sat down and picked up my guitar.

"What's up LA?!" - As soon as I said that into the mic there was a loud scream from everyone inside and outside of the store, I was knocked back with it and a shot them all the huge smile that was on my face.

"So I'm gonna play some songs for you guys is that alright!" - As I'd said that the whole place erupted into screams and cheers. had to put up with the pain of being away from a loved one." - As soon as I started playing the whole place erupted into a mixture of screams and cheering. Well same thing really.

I pack my bags and say goodbye to my wife

For what seems like the millionth time. 

They said it gets easier, but they lied. 

She looks at me and says "Really baby, I will be just fine." 

But then she looks away so I don't have to see her cry. 

And that is when I ask myself, 

How am I supposed to be everything they expect me to be? 

When I feel so alone, because I left my heart at home. 

She needs me, But I know they need me too. 

So god give me the strength to do, what you created me to do. 

Well really I'm so thankful for the people I meet, the places I've been and the things I've seen. 

But when she's not here it doesn't feel like I'm living my dreams. 

I know they say, that no one is perfect, but I swear she's perfect for me. 

And that makes it so much harder to leave. 

How am I supposed to be everything they expect me to be? 

When I feel so alone, because I left my heart at home. 

She needs me, But I know they need me too. 

So god give me the strength to do, what you created me to do. 

If you miss me, I'm just a phone call away. 

Please be strong, Be strong for me.
