I woke up to see Demi sleeping on the couch next to me her arms wrapped around me, I smiled to myself she's so peaceful, I'm debating on wether or not to push her off the couch playfully, eventually I decided to do it anyway. I put a hand on her shoulder and hip and shoved her off the couch, Demi screamed as she hit the floor, "I looked over the side of the couch and said "what are you doing on the floor?" 

She glared and said "ohhh thats how it's gonna be huh," as she stat up and pulled me onto the floor as well I laughed and said "yea that is," as I rolled off of her. She grabbed me and said "well then it means I can do this," she began covering my face in tiny kisses and said "are you okay, you landed on the floor...I wonder how that happened?," I tried to push her away and said "mom stop, please, your smothering me." Demi froze when I said mom and she smiled, I took the opportunity to roll away from her she questioned "you're not apologizing, you're not freaking out, so you calling me mom doesn't bother you, or you said it on purpose."

I replied "well you are technically my mom now so it's appropriate, but it still makes me a little uneasy to say that, I just didn't want you to get upset." She nodded and then said "well then, in that case it made me feel really good, I can't really describe it it just felt really good to hear you say that." I smiled and said "I'm glad I did." Demi stood up and said "let me help you back onto the couch," I then said "you got a concert tonight, don't you," she replied "yes, I do," as she picked me up and carried me into the bathroom.

I questioned "umm, Demi what are you doing," she said "putting you on the scale in the bathroom," I struggled in her arms and said "no, Demi please I don't need to know how much weight I gained." She stood me on the scale and said "but I do, please just let me do this," I sighed and stood still on the scale, she looked at the number and said "look, your 89.5 lbs, thats not bad." I sighed and fell back into her arms, my legs ache from standing on my own, Demi carried me back to the couch and sat down she said "I know that was hard but I had to know," I stayed sitting in her lap, leaning back against her chest.

She sighed and said "do you want to come to the concert with me, if you do I might carry you on stage and introduce you to my fans, they've been spamming my social media with questions about who you are and what your doing with me all the time. I think it's time I tell the world I adopted you, what do you think?," I replied "I think that would be fine with me but how am I supposed to be onstage if I can't walk?" Demi replied "I'll have a chair set up next to the mic for you at the end of the concert, so that Kels or a security guard can carry you out, or I could go get you." 

I replied "Kels can just carry me out, just tell your fans I'm recovering from major surgery or something since they probably know you've been going to hospital a lot recently, don't tell them I was in a coma." Demi replied "okay, that'll work," then after a long pause she said "can you sing?," I responded "um...well...not really... but I used to play the guitar a-lot..before the car crash." Demi said "you should play guitar while I sing, a song or two, I'll get you the music, do you know any of the music for my songs," I replied "umm... I know some of give your heart a break and most of neon lights." 

Demi jumped up and walked upstairs she said "which guitar do you play electric or acoustic," I said "electric," Demi brought down an electric guitar and a pocket amp, I said "wow, do you want me to use these." Demi responded "the guitar will be plugged into the sound system for the show, but yea you can use these," I hugged Demi and began messing around with the guitar to get a feel for it as Demi left the room.

About twenty minutes later Demi walked in and said "here's the music, although you sound like you got most of it down, your going to play the guitar on the stage with a spotlight on you, while I perform. I talked it over with the crew and stage manager," I smiled and said "thanks, and well that was fast, um... do you want to sing along while I play, it'll help me memorize it better." Demi sat down next to me and said "sure, you ready, and a one, two, three, four, I began to play the guitar and Demi started singing."

"Baby when they look up at the sky
We'll be shooting stars just passing by
You'll be coming home with me tonight
We'll be burning up like neon lights.

Be still my heart 'cause it's freaking out, it's freaking out, right now
Shining like stars 'cause we're beautiful, we're beautiful, right now
You're all I see in all these places
You're all I see in all these faces
So let's pretend we're running out of time, of time.

Demi then turned to me and said "well I think we're ready to perform what about you, your really good at guitar you know, and I say that as a guitar player," I laughed and replied "I think I'm ready, and thanks, your voice is pretty amazing too." Demi smiled and said "thank you," as she looked at the clock and said "I think it's time we head over to the arena where the last tour concert is being held, rehearsals start soon."
