*Demis POV*

"WAKE UP!" my mom yelled from downstairs making me groan. First day of school now being my third year in high school."Five more minutes!" I yelled burying my face deeper into my pillow. "That's what you said twenty minutes ago" she responded making me frown.  "Demi am I going to have to go up there?" She threatened. "I'm up I'm up" I said  and rubbed my eyes trying to process that summer was over. As soon as I was done complaint about how much I really didn't want to go to school I walked to the bathroom and got ready for school. I grabbed black skinny jeans with a band tee and a pair of black and white converse.

"Aren't you going to eat sweeite?' my mom asked as soon as she saw me searching for my book bag. "No, im fine I don't want to be late" I responded while my eyes searched the room for my bag. "There you are" I mumbled grabbing my bag from under the kitchen table. "Bye mommy love you'' i said kissing her cheek and proceeded to walk out the door. I sighed and made my way to camilas house.

Camila has been my friend for a very long time. While Selena...well thats a tough topic to talk about. She was my ex best friend, we had been friends since we where five. We did everyting togehter, literally but ever since we started high school, she just ditched me for her new best friend Taylor Swift. They have a samll group and they are the "popular kids".

Some nights selena climbs on my window and comes inside my bedroom. She lays down with me on bed and we fall asleep. At first it was strange but somehow it has become a routine. She was usually crying, and i know the excat reason why, her step-father Michael. Ever since her parents split up her mother found a new lover. But that son of a bitch.....I can't even put it into words how much I despise him.

*FLASH BACK*

I sat in my room doing homework, seventh grade sucks. I felt a tap on my shoulder I flinched but then realized it was selena. "oh hey lena what are you doing here?" I asked confusion and concern evident. But then I noticed tears streaming down her cheeks. "lean what's wrong?' I asked her as I leaned up to hug her. We walked to my bed and sat down so she could be more comfortable. I wrapped my arms around her. "its okay'' I kept whispering in her ear and i kept tracing circles on her back until she calmed down. I wasn't sure what was wrong but if it made her this upset my main goal was to clam her down and help her.

"M-michale'' she stuttered. "What happened with michale is he okay? did he hurt you?' i asked. "h-he touched me, i was in my room taking a nap, when i woke up his hands where in my pants'' she said. My eyes widen in shock I sat there in shock trying to process what the person who meant the most in the world to me had just said. "Did you tell your mother?" I asked. She shook her head "no and I won't" she said. "Why Lena you have to" I said. "No demi she's happy with him and this is the only time I've seen her happy okay and if they break up who's going to provide for our family" she said. "Just please don't tell" she said with puppy eyes. I nodded agreeing I couldn't quite understand at the time the magnified of the problem. "Okay I'm here for you" I assured her. Nonetheless Selena was my best friend and I would always be there.

*END OF FLASH BACK*

"Lovato" camila yelled waving her hand over my face. "Oh hey mila" I said. "I've been trying to get your attention the last couple of minutes" she said as we began to walk to school. "Sorry I was thinking" I answered truthfully. "About her?" Camila asked and I nodded Camila knew me so well she had become my human journal if that's even a thing.

"Did she come by yesterday? " she asked. "Not that I know of...I felt like she was there but I never saw her...but when I woke up in the morning my window was open" I responded trying to process the information myself. "So how was your summer?" I asked changing the topic to make the mood lighter. "It consisted of tumblr and food" she said making me giggle because it was no surprise to me.

"Where did you go?" she asked her voice showed interest which made me happy.

"I didn't go anywhere maddie had to stay the summer for her acting in the real house wives so we decided to just stay here" I said. "I still can't believe your little sister is on tv" Camila said making me giggle.

"Girls wait up!" we heard someone yell. Making us turn around only to see the curly haired boy; Nick. I instantly smiled at the boy "hey jick Nonas" I said and he rolled his eyes at the nickname I assigned to him a while back.

"Hey friends and demi" he said teasing me as always. I rolled my eyes but couldn't help the smile on my face at his attempt of being mean.

"Hey Nicky" camila greeted him with a smile. "Where's Miley?" I asked noticing the missing member.

"I have no idea she'll probably be late" Nick assumed with a shrug.

"So you two are completely over?" I asked about his previous relationship with Miley. Nick nodded scanning the ground which was his way of showing that he didn't want to go into depth. "we're still friends but it's over" he assured us.

Suddenly a familiar car drove by us. "There they go" camila said. "I still don't get why Lauren and Selena hang out with them" nick spoke up shaking his head. "They pick their friends" I said with a shrug. "I mean Taylor, Harry, Justin, and the others are a bunch of preppy 'I think I'm better than everyone' kids" Nick stated as he watched the car go by. "Don't talk about camilas Crush that way" I said laughing after my statement making Camila's cheek turn a light shade of pink. "I seriously can't believe mila has a crush on that kid. I meant what do you see in suck a self absorbed prick" nick stated harshly.

"Hey! Well if we are throwing stones here then why don't we discus the fact that you have a crush on Demi" Camila said making Nick roll his eyes because it wasn't a secret to any of us but nonetheless it made me laugh to see my closest friends arguing over nonsense.

"Hey you missy don't laugh, we still don't know who your crush is but we'll find out" Nick stated determined as he glared at me. "Whateves you have a crush on me" I shrugged making him roll his eyes.
