As Long As We Dance Part 8

Two months later

Demi sighed, as she got up. She looked over to see that Joe side of the bed was empty. Just Winston, Joe's dog was at the foot of the bed. She has been dating Joe the last two months. She moved in with him after she graduated College. They both decided not to tell anyone they're dating. Demi smiled, as she thought about Miley and Selena, she would finally get to see them both after not seeing them for like a month and half. They had been on vacation with their families. Nick didn't know that she is dating Joe either. Demi was glad that she had the day off. She got a job, as a Secretary. It was part time, but she didn't mind. Joe, said that he had to run some errands, this morning. The sun was shining brightly. Demi was hiding something from Joe. She was scared, she didn't know how to tell him. Demi eyes went wide as she got up fast and ran down the hall.

Ten minutes later

"Baby, where are you?" Joe said, as he enter their room. The bed was empty. He sighed, as he sat down. He was a bit worried, Demi seem to be pulling away from him. For the past week. He could tell that she was keeping something from him. He would ask her, but she would change the subject. He pulled the box out of his pocket. He looked at it, then he put it in back in his pocket. He began to think how crazy it was, that he fell in love with her after a few hours of meeting her. He was never the type to fall. But, he did and he fell hard for her.

He pulled out his phone, from his other pocket as it rang, he accepted the call. "Hey ma. How are you?" He said. "I'm great son. You are still coming over tonight right." She said. "Yes, ma. It is after all my birthday dinner. So, yes I will be there. It's just going to be going to be you, dad, Frankie, Nick, Miley and Selena right? You aren't inviting more right."He heard her sigh. "Yes, just us and of course your friend that you mentioned that you wanted to come. So, who is this person. It's a girl right. Well, I hope that it is."

"Ma, you will just have to see." He said, as he smiled. "Fine, but I know it is a girl. You have been so different. But it is a good, different. You are always smile, for no reason at all. I've tried to ask Nick, but he doesn't know nothing. Okay I'll just wait for tonight. I was just making sure, you would be her and I just wanted to make sure your friend was coming too. So I will see you later. Bye, son. I love you." She said. "I love you to ma." He said, then he hung up the phone. Winston came in the room. He whimper, Joe looked at him with a frown. "What is it boy. Where is my baby at?" He asked, as Winston turned back and walked down the hall.

Joe, got up and followed Winston. He stopped in front of the bathroom. He clawed at the door. Joe's heart began to race. "Dems baby are you in there?" He said, as he knocked on the door. He could hear her crying. "Dems, come on babe. You're scaring me and Winston." He could hear her moving around in the bathroom. Then he heard something break like glass. He began to panic, Winston wined. "DEMEMTRIA! What are you doing, open up now."He said, as he tried to calm himself. "J...Joe I'm fine just go." She said, just enough for him to hear. "No, I will not leave. Please open the door. Don't make me break it down. I can't tell that you are not fine. I can hear it in your voice that you have been crying, Dems. "

"Just leave me alone, everyone else does. Seems like that all that happens to me, people get taken away from. So lets just get it over with." She said, as her voice shook slightly. He took a breath in. "Dems, honey come on unlock the door now." He said. "No, ju..."She began. "Dems, I'm not going to leave. Why would I leave you. That is just crazy. Now open it up or I will break the door down."He said. "Ughhhhhhh, Fine." She said, as he heard the Door unlock. As the door swung open, his breath got caught in his throat. Just the sight of her, took his breath away. He smiled at her, as she stood in front of him. She had on his t-shirt. She looked at bit pale, she had tears on her face.

"WHY?"She yelled. "WHY, WHAT?" He said back. "WHY WON'T YOU LEAVE ME?" She said. "I LOVE YOU THAT'S, WHY I WON'T LEAVE YOU."Joe yelled. Her eyes got big, then tears began to flood her eyes. His, eyes when wide. He did love her, but he didn't want to say it to her like that. "I'm sorry baby. I didn't mean to yell at you. But you were yelling at me."He said. "Y.....y...you What?" She stuttered. He smiled at her, as he looked her in the eyes. "I said, I love you Demi. So, I won't leave you."He said, as he reached out and wiped her face. He felt her shudder at his touch. She took a deep breath in, then she let it out. "I...I love you to Joe. I love you so much. Sometimes, I forget to breath when you are around. But...I'm scared. That you will leave me when I tell you something."
