Gift Of A Friend [Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez - Delena/Semi fanfic]

Chapter 29 - Tied Together With A Smile

Selena's POV

I'm sitting my couch in my PJ's, hair pulled back and no make up on. I've never cried this much in my life. I've never cried this much for a guy, ever!

Demi won't return my calls or text and it's been like a week. I text Joe and Nick if they have heard anything. It was hard for me to even talk to Nick, but I don't need to be selfish. Joe said he's tried contacting her to, but no response. Same for Nick as well. I fix me a bowl of cereal for lunch. I sit cris cross applesauce on the couch and turned on the TV.

Demi Lovato has check herself into a treatment center due to cutting, purging, and other issues as well. Lovato has been in there for over a week and is now telling the world. Demi canceled her tour with the Jonas Brothers. Lovato says she is taking a break which she believes she deserves it. She says she is doing the right thing to get help and if anyone is dealing with this is to do the same. We'll be back after this.

I sat my food bowl down on the coffee table and pick up and called Dianna.

"Hello?"

"Dianna?" I said with my voice breaking.

"Oh Selena, How are you?"

"I'm good how about you?" I said pacing around the living room.

"I'm great."

I hesitated to ask but I couldn't help it,

"How's Demi?"

I heard her take a deep breath, "She's in Timberline Knolls. They said she's still not putting a lot of effort to get better."

"Can I talk to her somehow? Maybe I can knock some sense into her." I said still pacing the living room.

"Selena, honey, I don't think that's a good idea. She is not allowed to contact anybody and she said she didn't want to talk to you just yet. She wants to focus in getting strong. She barley get's to talk to us, but I don't think she wants to talk to anybody anyways." Dianna explained to me and made me cry.

I officially lost my best friend. "Thanks for the info, Dianna. If you need anything i'm here for you."

"I love you Selena, thanks." She said and we both hung up.

I got so mad and so upset that I threw my phone to the wall then I laid in the floor with my palms over my eyes and sob.

I got up and decided to call Demi anyways but I tried to calm down.

Demi's POV

I decided to check my phone today, but i'm not going to get on no social sites because I'm don't need to read or hear anything that will put me down.

Text message from Miley:

Demi, I didn't know you was in treatment. I saw your cuts one time and told you to keep on fighting but never let yourself lose and you haven't lost yet. I love you babe, keep stay strong, i'll see you soon.

Text message from Nick:

Hey Demi, I heard everything and i'm sorry I never notice before but I'm always here for you and you know it. When you're out of that prison I'll take you somewhere special. Love you! Stay strong.

Text message from Joe. Nope not even going to try and read that one. I'll keep it and may read it later.

Text message from Marissa:

I love you Demetria Devonne Lovato! I'm coming to visit you soon. You're a strong girl. Just remember I was your beat friend before treatment and i'm your best friend when you're out of treatment.

Right when I finish reading the text I got a called. It was a private call, I hope it's not an interviewer.

"Hey, Lauren. Anwser this for me." I said jumping on her bed and handing her my phone. She was reading some magazine.

"What? No. Why?"

"Because if it's a interview they will think they have the wrong number." I explained.

She moaned the grab the phone. "Hello?"

"This is Lauren, who is this?"

"Oh...umm hold on." She said then handed me the phone.

"Who is it?" I whisper.

"Just talk to them, It's not a interviewer. I promise." Lauren said and I trusted her

"Hello?" I answered.

"Demi." I knew who it was. Selena and she was crying which made me cry. It's hard for us not to talk to each other. We at least talk to each other everyday.

"Are you alright? Are they treating you ok?"

"I'm fine, you shouldn't be crying. I'm the one in here." I said crying but with a smile. I was smiling because I'm glad I got to talk to her, it took me this log to realize Selena cares.

Selena was still crying and I cried along with her, but i'm serious. "Selena."

"Yeah?"

I took a deep breath, "I meant what I last said to you, but you're still my best friend and you'll always have a place in my heart. I love you and can't wait to buy your next album, movie, or show. I can't wait to see you grow in fame. I'll cya around, bye." I said and hung up the phone.

I whip my tears and look at Lauren. "Are you ok?" She ask rubbing my back.

I took a sniffle and look at her with a smile, "I think I am now."

Knowing that Selena and I aren't going to be as close is ok. She may stop being my friend but I don't know but that that doesn't mean I stop being hers. Selena career would have went away due to my stupidity. Why should I ruin someone's dream, my best friend, for my stupidity? I couldn't live with myself. Selena probably doesn't understand but sooner or later she will.
