Demi’s POV

“Do you need anything Dem” – Max asked as he got up from the seat in the middle of the airport.

“Can of red bull?” – I said with a huge smile on my face.

“You live off that stuff, alright be right back” – He said as he walked over to one of the stores leaving me sat on my own. Great… might as well check twitter while I’m waiting for him to get back. Just loads of my lovatics in my mentions wishing me the best, saying they’re sending their prayers to Rick and just generally telling me they love me. God I love them. Where would I be without them.

@ddlovato Sometimes I just read my mentions and smile.. My lovatics give me butterflies :)<3

I opened a new tweet and clicked on the camera turning it round and facing me taking a new photo.

@ddlovato Can you guess where I am? ;) pic.twitter.com/DgdamzPSVt

And within seconds they’d guessed it right! Loads of them mostly saying I was in airport.

@lovaticforever @ddlovato YOU’RE IN AN AIRPORT DEMI WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!

@demetriasbitch @ddlovato AN AIRPORT?! YOU’RE GOING TO SEE RICKY AREN’T YOU!! :D

Nice username ;)

@demetria_uk @ddlovato THIS IS WHAT IT’S ALL ABOUT REMI BITCHES!!

Yep Remi is forever guys.. Well I hope anyway.

@ddlovato Yeah you guessed it guys I’m in an airport!! On my way to somewhere special...

Just as I sent those tweets Max came back with a bag full of stuff.

“Max it’s only a 4 and a half hour flight what did you buy the whole store?!” – I said grabbing the can of red bull out the bag and opening it taking a swig. Oh my god Red Bull you’re are my true love. Don’t tell Rick okay.. sshh it’ll be our little secret okay. Goooood can of red bull. Wow I need a life.

“Well this way I don’t have to have you bugging me every five minutes with Max get me this, Max get me that, Maxxxxyyyy!” – He said laughing as he opened the bag. Max that is a horrible impression of me. Oh my god Max! He bought pretty much everything!! Food, drinks, magazines, those weird neck rest things. I don’t know what I’d do without him. Honestly. I’d probably of been kidnapped by Brazilians by now.

“Well I won’t have to now will I! Thank you Maxy!” – I said as I beamed a smile up at him.

“This is the boarding call for flight 37C to Chicago”

“Let’s go then Max!” – I said as I grabbed my bag and headed down the terminal with Max. Time to go.

********

This is strange I never thought I’d be back here again let alone more than once.

“You gonna be okay?” – Max said as he peered from around the front seat of the car. He sounded genuinly concerned.

“Yeah I’ll be okay” – I said shooting him a reassuring smile and getting out the car. As I stepped out the car I looked up and saw the familiar building, as I walked up to the building I took my phone out and took a photo of the Timberline Knolls sign.

@ddlovato Never thought I’d be back here…  pic.twitter.com/DhjwzLWGTm

Shit!! I better make it clear I’m not back in treatment!!

@ddlovato Shit! Don’t worry guys I’m not back in treatment!! I’m here to see Rick!!!

As I locked my phone and put it back in my pocket, I took a deep breath and continued up the path towards the complex. So many memories and images came rushing back into my head. This didn’t happen last time I came to see him… why now?
