It’s Been A While Since We Last Spoke

Chapter 19

Nick’s POV

I had to leave separately from Demi... as we’re not ready to tell anyone about us.

Demi told me that Dallas found out, but I’m not worried about her knowing.

Only Demi’s family really know about us... as Eddie surprisingly doesn’t have a problem with me. I guess he had to warm up to me maybe? I don't know him THAT well, but I've had past conversations with him… and he seems like a swell guy. He's definitely good to Demi, as if he were her real dad.

It's now pretty late at night, the sunset is caving in and the orangey strong tint from the sun was blaring upwards, making red, purple colours mix with the moonlight sky. It was beautiful out here in Peru. I don't come here often enough. For a moment, looking at the sunset, made me think about how beautiful Demi is… and how she could be like this sunset. Sounds awfully corny of me… she's made me a sap.

So it's time to be heading into my car now. I spent some time with people outside the venue when they did see me, so it’s okay if people assume I was there to see Demi’s concert. But no one can know that we’re intimate. Not yet anyway. I had some fans talk to me for a little while, and when Demi was signing autographs and getting pictures, I gave her a small wink and smile. She responded back with a smile. It was nice enough that we could at least exchange some emotion, but I didn’t go up to her in case we got a load of questions.

 I did get a couple of girls ask me if I was friends again with Demi though. I nodded and smiled, noticing Demi looking at me when they were talking to me. I looked at her again, and she smiled again, but with more warmth and laziness in her eyes. She's probably exhausted.

It was so cute to see Demi with her fans though; she treated them with respect just like I would. She loves her fans truly, which is one of the reasons she is so amazing and genuine. In some ways she reminds me of myself, with how she tries to show compassion, and kindness. She shows mercy.

 She showed me mercy.

 I kept the faith in her.

When I gave another glimpse at Demi when the girls left me, I couldn't help but stare at her complexion, her pure, honest colours. She honestly enjoyed being around her fans. She gave them her cheeky smile with tongue, making the goofiest poses I could imagine. I couldn't help but snigger. Demi heard and stuck her tongue out at me.

I whisper to her, "You're cute."

She gives me a huge grin and says "I know."

I almost get the urge to run up to her and kiss her… but I have to fight that when we're around here. I noticed a couple of girls look at the both of us. I hope we weren’t being too obvious.

Anyway so it's time to leave now, so Demi gives me a signal to tell me that she's heading to her car. I nod and once she gets closer to her car, I pretend that I'm leaving to go somewhere else. I quickly go up to Demi and hug her as a fake goodbye. She makes sure I don't hold on for too long so no one is suspicious. I let go and march towards my car whilst giving Demi a wave as she starts to pull out of the parking space.

I find my car as it was and I open the door to get in. I never get tired of my baby. It's a 1968 Ford Mustang and I will cherish it for as long as I live. Yeah yeah I know it's just a car but it's more than that to me. It's held memories now ever since I got it when I was 16. Demi has a Mercedes Benz, which is a pretty good car actually. But it doesn't beat my baby. But I guess that's because she chose a sensible car for all occasions whilst I live on the edge in mine. She's also more practical and smart, whilst I'm hopeless. The choice of my car suits my personality too, being a hopeless romantic for her. Anyway moving on…
