Hide And Seek. (Demi Lovato & Wilmer Valderrama)

Chapter 10: How Things Change.

Demi flinched as she opened her eyes for the man to take a look at the outcome, he'd spent an hour putting the nose back in place and removing all of the blood. Now all that was left was 5 stitches on her lip, a swollen however fixed nose and blood on her clothes from 3 hours ago.

"Okay, done. I advice you not to put any products on your face since your nose is still swollen, it should go down in 2 weeks maximum and when washing your face be gentle. Your stitches can be taken out in the next week or so along with the bandage on your nose however for now leave it how it is." The man looked over to the little girl who he'd allowed to play on his phone while helping Demi.

"The cast should stay on Elisa for at least 6 weeks since her bone is pretty sensitive due to her age but everything seems ok, I will be back in 6 weeks to take the cast off her. Until then, I've had a lovely talk with you Demi." Wilmer then came in the room hearing the man was finished, his phone in his hand so he must've been calling somebody.

"Thank you Pete. Your a nice man." Demi smiled sincerely making Wilmer frown.

"Your welcome, your such a lovely woman. I'll be off, Wilmer it's nice seeing you after so long." Demi's head turned towards the other side of the room hearing Wilmer's name and she instantly dropped her head, a frown replacing the once smiling lips and the sparkle in her eyes which she usually had for a lot of people had now disappeared seeing him.

The once lively woman changed into a quiet and miserable woman and Pete recognised that.

"Can I have my phone back sweetheart?" Pete walked over to Elisa and the young girl whined for a moment but as she met Wilmer's eyes the girl immediately gave the man the phone.

"You know what, you can keep-"

"No, she can't. They could ring police or any one for help." Wilmer intervened making Pete frown.

"You could watch her play on it when you gave her a turn or-" Pete tried to reason.

"I said no, it's none of your business now get out." Wilmer's anger was starting to come back and it made Demi's breathing pick up. Pete smiled at the two girls before walking out quickly, not wanting to get on Wilmer's bad side.

"C-Could I put-t Elisa to b-bed?" Demi stuttered out due to her difficult breathing as the little girl rushed to her embrace to try and escape Wilmer, Demi picked her up and let her cuddle into her chest with a soft yawn making the woman smile.

"You haven't ate." Wilmer acknowledged, once again challenging Demi's responses but she wasn't going to give him any indication of anger.

"I-I- I don't have to but Elisa will." Demi didn't dare look at the man however she had to when he slowly came over to her, her body tensed and he noticed.

"You should both eat. Follow me." Wilmer ordered and Demi knew not to disobey him again so she followed him.

"If you don't want to it's okay. I'm not so hungry anywa-" Demi stomach rumbled at the smell of food once the reached the kitchen area that Demi hadn't been in yet.

"Your hungry, your eating." Wilmer couldn't help but allow a smile to take over his lips making Demi's eyes widen.

Demi didn't reply, she didn't want to annoy him incase he hit her once again so she only sat down at the table and allowed Elisa to take a seat next to her. While Wilmer put food on a plate that was already made.

"I know your wondering what we're doing here." Wilmer started but Demi only nodded making him inwardly hit himself.

You've made her so frightened of you she can't even talk to you! You idiot. Wait, why do I care if she's afraid of me, she is suppose to be anyway.
