Where do I start? Demi thought as she took a deep breath ready to tell Selena what she had told no else, ready to tell her everything - the truth. They were at Selena's house sitting on her bed across from eachother. ''You don't have to tell me if you don't want to.'' Selena said breaking Demi's thoughts.
''No.'' She said finally looking her in the eye. ''I want to.'' She took another breath before she started. ''Back at my old school there was a new kid named Tony Oller, and all the girls thought he was so cute and they all wanted him - even me. Well, one day I bumped into him, we started talking, one thing led to another, and soon enough we were inseperable. Anyways, we started dating and I was so happy, I really thought I was in love.'' Demi closed her eyes as she had a memory of that night. She then opened them to conutine.
''Then, there was an end of summer party - the biggest party of the year and of course we went. I was dancing with my friends and then Tony comes up from behind me and says 'Lets go somewhere.' I smiled and nodded my head as he led us upstairs and into a room. Once in the room we immediately started to make-out, but then things got more heated and his kisses were rougher. He was touching me all over and started to zip off my dress. We had never talked about having sex, and I wasn't ready, so I pushed him away telling him I wasn't ready, but he didn't listen. He keep going and going til he was finished with what he wanted.''
Selena covered her mouth in shock as she gasped and her eyes got watery. ''Demi...'' She said not knowing what to say for once.
Demi wiped the tear from her cheeck. ''You don't know how good it feels to finally tell someone.''
''You mean you didn't tell anybody?'' She asked.
''No.''
''What happened next?''
''I found out about Joe and I knew that it was the perfect time to get away. So I did.''
Selena grabbed both of Demi's hands. ''Is that why you won't give Nick a chance?''
''I came here to get away, and not to have some stupid little romance.'' Demi said.
''But is that's what it is to you? A stupid little romance?''
She sighed. ''No.''
''Then, don't let your past ruin your future.''

Nick walked into his house and was about to go straight to his room, but was stopped by the maid. ''Mr. Nicholas?''
''I'm not in the mood.'' He said while he continued his way up.
''Well, I'm going home and I wanted to tell you that your parents are home.''
Nick froze immediately turning towards the maid. ''Where are they?''
''Your mother is asleep and your father is in his study.''
He nodded. ''Goodnight.'' Nick went up the stairs as planned, but instead of going to his room he went farther down the hallway and in front of his dad's office. He knocked on the door once before hearing the words 'Come in.' He took a deep breath before turning the knob and walking in. ''Hey dad.''
He looked up from his desk to look him in the eye. ''Hey son.''
''How was your trip?''
''Good.''
Nick looked from the corner of his eye and saw a bottle of Vodka and alittle shot glass on the edge of his father's desk. He sighed. ''Drinking again?''
''Just a few shots.'' He answered. Just a few... ''Is mom alright? Were you drinking on your trip?''
His dad stood up from his chair and walked over to Nick. ''Don't worry about it.''
''Don't worry about it!?'' He asked in disbelif. ''When is this going to stop?!''
Instead of answering him, he balled his fist up and had it meet Nick's left eye, knocking him to the ground. ''I said don't worry about it.'' He said while kicking him in the side. Nick would of screamed for help, but he didn't want to wake his mother up, so he just waited until his dad was finished with him like always when he was drunk. ''Your worthless.'' He said after a few minutes then he was done, leaving Nick alone. He laid there for a good five minutes crying. I am worthless. This week hasn't been his week, his parents coming back, the 2nd round of playoffs, and then losing Demi. Demi... he smiled at the thought of her name. That's when he knew he needed someone - he needed her.. Nick slowly got up and made his way down the stairs and out the door.
-
Demi couldn't sleep, Nick had kept running in her mind. She sighed knowing that she needed him. Her thoughts were inturrupted by a knock on her window. Demi quickly got up and slowly made her way to the window, lifting the certains only to find him standing there. ''Nick?'' She said while opening it. ''What are you doing here?'' He didn't answer her instead he climbed through and hugged her while crying on her shoulder. Demi was shocked and confused, but let him hold her as she was holding him, she knew not to say anything yet - just to let him cry. She waited until he pulled away.
''Can we talk, I really need to talk to someone.''
She nodded. ''Okay.''
They laid on her bed as Demi watched Nick talk about everything that he has kept in and not let out til now. ''I don't even know why I came here.'' Nick said after he finished talking.
''I'm gald you did.'' She said giving him a soft smile.
''I'm really sorry.'' Nick got up from the bed and headed towards the window ready to leave.
Demi saw as Nick was about to leave and all she could think of was Selena and what she told her today. Don't let the past ruin your future. ''Wait.'' She blurted out not wanting him to go. She stood up from her bed and walked closer to him, putting her hands on each of his cheecks looking him in the eyes. ''Stay.'' She whrispered while leaning in and then meeting his lips.
