high school love a semi

~ Demi's P.O.V. ~

Oh, shit! I almost said it! I almost told her I love her. Although it's true --I do love her- I can't just say it like that. Besides, it's way too early to say it. If I say it now, she'll freak out and dump me. Or worse, she'll say thanks but she's not ready for love and we'd continue on with the relationship. Only difference is that I'd be heartbroken.

"What was that?" Selena asked me, eyeing me suspiciously.

"N-nothing." I stuttered. Shit, now she knows I'm lying.

"Yeah, sure." She said sarcastically before turning towards Miley. "Hey Miles, can I talk to you for a second?"

Miley nodded. "Sure thing, Sel." She said before taking her arm and pulling her elsewhere.

I watched them walk off before turning towards Alyson. "Fuck, Alyson!" I cursed and slammed my hand against the locker.

"Whoa, calm down! I'm sure she doesn't know and even if she did, so what? Wouldn't you be happy that she knows?" Alyson asked me.

"I'd be happy if she felt the same. I don't want to tell her and have her not feel the same. I just wouldn't be able to handle it." I stated.

"And how do you know she doesn't feel the same? You were wrong about her not liking you. What makes you think you're not wrong about her loving you either?" I sighed and glanced over at Selena. I don't want to lose her. "You're not going to lose her." Alyson stated as if reading my mind.

"And how do you know that?" I asked, looking back at her.

"I just do. I see the way she looks at you and trust me, she's not going anywhere." Alyson said with a small smile.

I looked over at Selena and caught her eyes. She smiled over at me, instantly causing me to smile back. Maybe Alyson's right. So what if Selena knows? I should be happy that she would finally know. Besides, I could be wrong again. She could love me back. I just hope I'm not wrong about that.

~ Before with Selena and Miley, Selena's P.O.V. ~

"Do you think she was going to say the L-word?" I asked Miley as soon as we were out of earshot distance from Demi.

"The L-word?" Miley looked at me with a blank expression.

"You know..." I looked away before looking back and mumbling, "Love..."

"I wouldn't doubt it." Miley chuckled.

"You really think she was going to?" I asked, wanting to know.

"Knowing Demi, definitely. Honestly, I'm a bit surprised that you haven't spilled it out either." Miley chuckled again.

I sighed. "It's too early Miley."

"Not for you and Demi. You've been in love with her for three years now. She should know." Miley stated.

"Yes, it's been three years for me. Not for her." I retorted.

"You're right, because for her it's been longer." She argued back.

"Look, Miles. I don't want to argue about this. It's only been a month, way too early to say that I love her." I sighed.

"More than half of the world's couples have said it earlier than this." Miley stated.

"Yeah, and what happened to them? Well I'll tell you, they broke up. Why? Because it was too soon." I argued.

Miley sighed. "Selena, calm down okay? She's not going to break up with you. I mean, just look at her."

I looked over at Demi just as she looked at me. I smiled at her and she smiled back at me with her amazing smile. "Yeah, I guess you're right."

~ After School ~

"Finally out of there!" Demi exclaimed the minute she stepped foot out of the classroom.

"You really just do hate that class." I chuckled, slipping me hand into hers.

"So much! The only thing that makes it better is you." Demi said, smiling over at me.

"We don't even sit next to each other." I giggled.

"Doesn't mean I don't look." She smirked, making me shake my head knowingly. "Well, come on babe. Gotta get the date started."

"Already? I thought we were just having dinner?" I asked confused.

"We are. I'm just going to make it." Demi smiled proudly.

"You? Cooking? When did that happen?" I smirked.

"I may or may not have learned a few recipes that I could make for tonight." She shrugged.

"Aww that's so cute!" I gushed.

"Cute? Really Selena? Really?" Demi stared at me in disbelief.

"What? It is! You went through so much trouble in learning not-so-easy recipes to make our one month special." I smiled at her.

"Well, I mean, they're not that hard..." She said, rubbing her neck a bit nervously.

"Don't tell me one of those recipes is mac and cheese." I stated.

"Well..." Demi started before seeing me shake my head with a smirk on my face. "Oh, come on! It's only a side dish."

"So then what's the main dish?" I asked curiously.

"Oh you'll just have to wait and see." Demi smirked.
