Demi's P.O.V

"Demi, you know I'm the number one person to support you. But are you thinking straight? Your only twenty.." She told me gently.

I couldn't help but let out another sob as another few tears slipped out of my eyes.

"Mom, I feel this is the right choice.. I know I only known them for three days. But in these three days I grown so attach to them.. I need them mom.. I need Desiree, I need Mason. I need to hear there story.. And the bastard who hurt them needs to be locked up and I'll personally burn the key.." I told her seriously through my tears.

"Demi, I support you a hundred percent. But remember they live in London. The process of adoption is long.. you can't stay in London forever.." She told me calmly.

"But mom.. What if I Foster them then. To see if I really want them.. It'll be easier. I can talk to the nearby Adoption center, then I can take them back to LA, settle in and get them a social worker in London and in LA or Texas.." I told her. My tears completely stopping.

"Is this something you really want to do?" She asked me over the phone.

I nodded eagerly. Realizing I was still on the phone and not talking to her in person, I replied with a serious "Yes,"

"Ok Dems, I can't wait to meet my new grandchildren.." My mom told me..

I smiled at the thought. "Well if I'm fostering them there not technically your grandchildren.." I told her through the phone.

"Yeah, yeah.." She said with a chuckle.

"Bye mom, love you.."

"Bye baby, see you soon?"

"Yeah, definitely."

"Ok than, bye and love you Dems."

She hung up, I looked at the phone. My mom was supportive of me. Great!

Now I have to go explain to the doctor and Desiree and Mason. Cheering myself up I quickly found the doctor that was in charge checking on Mason and Desiree.

I explained to her what was I wanted to do. She only smiled and supported what I wanted.

"Thanks Doc, now I have to go tell Mason and Desiree.." I told her gradually.

I ran to the room. As I entered I saw laughing Mason and Desiree.

Smiling I sat down on my knees next to them. "what are you watching?" I asked curiously.

I looked over to see Camp Rock playing on the screen.. I couldn't help but smile. However in the back of my mind I remember those were the times were every smile was forced, every laugh was pried out of me.

How they had makeup artist painting at my wrist. How the producers had to lighten the videos so my cuts were shown less. How they had to add weight to my figure in the editing.

I was reminded how no one knew about my scars on set. Only the producers. How I felt worthless. So worthless no one asked if I was ok, or if I was In need of a hug, or just a friendly smile. A genuine smile..

The scene they were watching was when Midge had fallen over into the bucket relieving she was the cooks daughter.

"Look, it's You on the Tele!" Mason said happily. I forced a laugh at his cuteness.. Trying to shake off the eerie memory creeping in the back of my mind

"How are you on the Tele Demi?" Desiree asked making me lightly.

I looked at her, "I used to be an actress. I was a singer but it was only the being of my singing career. I started acting first.. I use to act on a show called Barney with my best friend Selena Gomez.." I explain gently to her.

She nodded. I wasn't sure if she understood me.. Shaking my head, I looked at Mason and Desiree.

"Can I talk to you too?" I asked. Blurting out the question as gentle as I could. I couldn't help but let anxiety rise in me. What if they won't like me? What if I'm rejected?

Demi, your not asking someone on a date. Your asking two kids if they want to live with you..

My inner voice told me sharply. Wincing at the voice. I couldn't help but let its words be cruel to me. I hated voices.

Desiree looked up at me. Fear seemed to cross her beautiful brown eyes. I rubbed circles into her back. Her tense back soon relaxed. Giving me the courage to pop the big question.

"Ok, so.. I've been thinking. Would you like me to foster you?" I asked them gently. I felt excitement and proudness brew within me.

Mason eyes grew wide. "Yes!! Yes! Yes! And A thousand times yes!" He said throwing himself onto me.

My smile widen, I couldn't help the tears it brought to my eyes. He said yes! "He said yes!" I yelled picking him up and throwing him into the air.

Catching him swiftly I spun us around before pecking him all over his face. I tickled his little tummy. His squeals and laughs were joy to my ears.

I held him on my waist and looked at Desiree. I watched her smile grew and she threw herself at me. Clingy onto my leg since she wasn't tall enough to hug me properly.

My smile grew larger, "Yes.." I heard Desiree muffle into my leg. I laughed and hosted her up on my other waist.

"Remember, I'm only fostering you. It's not like a real adoption until the paper work is ready ok? Your going to be living with me a few months so I get to know you and you get to know me. So we can both agree on living with each other.. Ok?" I explained to them.

Happiness filling my heart. They nodded both understanding. They were very mature and smart for there age.

Smiling widely I spun them around the hospital room while singing 'Because I'm Happy.'

They giggled and squealed and I spun and sang. While pecking them on there faces.

What made my day was meeting them. Being there for them, being able to foster them. I'm going to be a foster mother..

Wow.. And All I needed was them to
Just Say Yes!
