"Well if it isn't my two favorite customers." Betty said with a smile once we walked in.

"Hey Betty." Demi grinned, making her way over to give her a hug.

I followed suit before plopping down on a barstool. "You look great, Betty."

"Why thank you, darling. You got yourself a keeper, Demi." Betty said, glancing over at Demi. "It is safe to say that now, right?"

I giggled as Demi blushed and chuckled nervously. "Oh you are definitely safe to say that alright. I wouldn't even think of letting her go."

"You are so sweet, babe." I smiled, pulling her into me. She smiled back and kissed me on the cheek before sitting on the stool next to me.

"Well, lemme just go ahead and take your order so I can get outta your way." Betty said, pulling her notepad and pen from her apron.

After ordering, Betty proceeded behind the counter and into the kitchen. Demi leaned over me and grabbed the salt and pepper shakers. "What are you doing?"

"What does it look like I'm doing?" Demi asked with a small smirk, continuing to shake the shakers.

"I don't know, that's why I asked." I answered with a smug look on my face.

Demi stopped what she was doing and looked up at me. "Touché."

I laughed and playfully pushed her, causing her to stick her tongue out at me. My girlfriend is so silly. But I love her anyways.

~ Demi's P.O.V. ~

After eating at Betty's, Selena and I made it over to my house for a change. We were currently cuddled up on my bed with Selena's head on my shoulder, humming a song I couldn't quite decipher. "What are you humming, babe?"

Selena looked up at me and smiled. "Just a random tune. Nothing in particular." Well then I guess she wasn't humming a song.

"Oh." I gazed up at the ceiling in thought. Selena's humming just gave me the best lyrics ever.

I guess my silence worried Selena because she lifted her head off of my shoulder with concern etched on her face. "Are you okay?"

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked over at her. I smiled brightly. "I'm perfect." I then leaned in and captured her lips with mine.

Selena pulled away with a smile on her face before slowly sitting up. She looked around my room, her eyes stopping at my bookshelf above my desk. "I never noticed how many notebooks you had."

I watched her get up and make her way to the desk. "Yeah, I have a lot."

Selena started looking through them all before she took one out. "Demi's Songs?" She questioned, reading out the title.

I immediately got up from my bed and walked over to her. "Oh, uh. Th-that's my songbook." I replied, taking it out of her hands.

"You write songs?" Selena asked, raising her eyebrows.

"Every once and a while." I shrugged, sitting back down on the bed.

"Can I read some?" Selena asked, sitting down next to me.

I hesitated before handing it over to her. "Yeah, sure."

I lied back on the bed and watched as she read through a few pages. "These are really good." She said, glancing back at me.

I gave a small smile. "Thanks, babe."

"Will you sing for me?" She asked.

"Maybe one day." I was kind of hoping she wouldn't ask me that. I don't want to sing for her and have her tell me I'm horrible. I just wouldn't be able to handle it. Well, she wouldn't say it in those exact words, but I hope she doesn't make a big deal out of it.

Selena wrinkled her nose, causing her to look so adorable, before getting up to put my songbook away. I returned my gaze back to the ceiling until Selena's voice shook me out once again. "What's this?" I turned to look at what she was talking about and found what looks to be a piece of paper that was folded a bunch of times. Confusion etched itself on my face until I saw the tears in her eyes. Crap.
