The Only Exception( A Demi Lovato Fanfic) [Editing]

Chapter 6: Just between Us

Summer

I wake up to find myself not in my own bed . I don't know how I got here or who's bed I'm in. Sitting up, I look around and see Demi's stuff everywhere . Oh GOD what did I do last night? I walk out of her room to see Marissa in the kitchen.

"Hey Marissa." I say in a raspy voice.

" Morning Summer. How was your night?" She questions grinning slyly.

All I could do was smile .

"What did I do last night with Demi?"

"I don't remember much because I was drunk to, but I do remember you being with her all night."

The room goes quiet.

"Can I ask you a question Summer?"

"Sure." I reply

"Do you like Demi?" my mouth goes dry. I answer the question quickly.

"Duh! I - "

"No Summer do you like her.. as you know..a girlfriend?"

I don't know how to answer that. I mean I like Demi more than a friend but then I don't. I can't be known as that lesbian cheerleader. That will ruin my whole career. Becoming a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader is what I wanted to be since I was a little girl.

Before I can answer, Dallas and Demi walk through the door with some groceries and I breathe a sigh of relief. Marissa gets distracted by their arrival and forgets our conversation.

Demi

Dallas and I walk in from the store, and Summer and Marissa are in the kitchen talking. I still remember what happened last night and I plan on talking to Sam about it. However, we need to be completely alone when we do. Putting up the groceries, we talk about our plan for today and cook breakfast. We agree on going to the boardwalk and going to the beach while we're there. Finishing our breakfast we go in our rooms to get ready. This is the perfect time to talk to Sam. Her door is ajar and I proceed in.

"Summer?"

She walks out the bathroom in her undergarments and I gaze away. She just doesn't understand what she does to me.

"Oh Demi! I didn't know you were in here."

Quickly grabbing her robe, she covers herself.

"Its okay..I just really need to talk to you." I say still not looking at her.

"Okay...whats on your mind?" she takes a sit and I take my place next to her.

"Um..about last night. What was that?" I question.

" I really don't remember much. Your going to have to be more specific."

"Last night...you were..um..dancing and flirting with me." we break eye contact.

"I was drunk Demi I do that." she seems offended.

"Okay.. but that wasn't the first time." now I'm getting upset. Why is she denying the truth?

"Demi do you think I was making advances at you?" she stands up.

"Yes. Sam I do."

"Do you think I have a crush on you?"

"I know you have feelings for me. And I do too." I can't believe I just admitted that. She seemed a little taken back. She takes a seat.

"Sam, I know this seems weird because it is for me too. However, I can't hide what I truly feel for you . I'm in love with you and I know there is something there between us."

"Demi.. I don't know what to say." she looks at me.

"Say you agree with me. Say I'm not alone in this." I grab her hand. My eyes are pleading with her.

"I do. I do have feelings for you that I don't understand."

"And you don't have to because I don't. Hell, I never thought I would like a girl." she chuckles.

Sam begins to smile and I finally think I've gotten through to her.

"Okay fine. But this is between us."

"Deal!"

I get up, hug her, and leave. I never would have thought I'll be in love with a girl. I never would have thought she would like me back. And I never would have thought it would be Summer Alison Marino, my sister's best friend.
