"Demi can I talk to you outside?" Joe questioned Demi sighing nodding her head knowing that it was coming. They both excused their selves before getting up heading outside the door standing outside in a private place. Joe took in a deep breath trying to control his anger, he had never been one to be angry but after everything that had happened over the last couple of days he was finding it hard to not be angry. "Why didn't you tell me before?"

"Because I don't know who the other guy is!" Demi exclaimed running her fingers through her hair. "I remember everything at the party now, can you remember not being together for a little while before going up to the bathroom ourselves?"

"vaguely." Joe mumbled scratching the bac k of his head gently.

"Yeah well while you were dancing very lamely alone I was with some guy and clearly he wasn't good enough for my drunk self and I came to you." Demi sighed leaning against the wall.

"I wanted to try and be friends with you but I don't know if I can, you just keep doing little things like this and it's making be angry! I can't live like this!" Joe stressed before storming off, Demi sighed again watching him leave before entering the coffee shop again sitting down opposite Brandon and Carla apologising to them.

"Um Joe is going through a tough time and has gone to have some time to himself." Demi explains not thinking of another way to explain to them. She knew she had been putting Joe through a tough time but she couldn't help herself, it was who she was.

Joe was stood outside the address Denise had given him earlier in the week when he came home from school to see that his mother was gone. He hadn't seen his mother since she checked herself into care while he was at school, he knew she wouldn't be able to say goodbye to him which is why she did it while he was at school. He made his way up the path and to the reception desk.

"Can I see my mom?" Joe questioned wiping away a couple of his tears.

"We don't usually do visits at this..." She begun but Joe interrupted her.

"Please?" Joe pleaded the woman nodding her head gently.

"What's her name?" She inquired.

"Dianna Lovato." Joe stated.

"I'll show you to her room." She got up making her way over to Joe's side leading him through the corridors until he found himself inside his mother's room seeing her laid on the bed a magazine in her hands but she looked over it when she heard someone enter.

"Joseph what's wrong?" Dianna questioned as the receptionist left shutting the door behind her.

"I miss you mom and it hasn't even been a week!" Joe exclaimed Dianna shushing him patting the spot on the bed next to her. He laid down next to her Dianna wrapping her arm around him rubbing his back to comfort him.

"I miss you too Joe but there has to be something else wrong." Dianna urged.

"It's Demi, she keeps playing with me and I don't know how much more I can take. She started drinking a couple of nights ago and just today she decided to tell me she doesn't even know if the babies are mine in front of a couple who might be taking them when they are born! She remembers sleeping with some other guy." Joe explained Dianna sighing.

"It must be hard Joe but you have to be there for here in case the babies are yours, adoption is something you both want so just get through these months then everything will be okay." Dianna assured her son kissing his head gently able to feel his tears soaking her shirt.

"I'm just so stressed all the time." Joe mumbled beginning to feel himself calm down a little bit.

"Mommy's cuddles help with that." Dianna grinned making Joe crack a smile.

"I love you mom."

"I love you to Joseph, forever." She answered kissing his head again.
