"What is it Kenz?" Naya asked, concern evident on her face.

"Please tell me what I'm thinking happened, didn't actually happen in there babe. Please tell me I'm wrong." Dani said with tears in her eyes.

"Baby, I'm sorry. I tried, and I failed. I'm so sorry." I said, walking in front of Dani, reaching up to wipe her tears.

She slapped my hand away, "Don't touch me. I need some time, I love you. I'll text you later." She looked up at Naya. "I'm gonna head home. I'll see you later. Love you Nay." With that, she shoved past me, said bye to my family, and slammed the door on the way out.

I didn't cry, I knew she'd react like this. I hope she doesn't slip back into her old habits.

"Nay, I need you to go watch her. Please? I'm worried she's going to do something stupid. I wouldn't be able to live if I was the reason behind her relapse. Please Nay. I love her." She nods.

"Of course Kenz. Anything for you. I know she loves you too. I'll text you later and tell you how she's doing. Bye Dem." Naya says, before hugging me and kissing Demi.

I let out a huge sigh, sitting against the wall by the bathroom. "Demi, I can't keep living like this. I'm hurting Dani, you and the rest of the family. I can't do this anymore." I said, holding my head in my hands.

"Yes you can. Sure it hurts us, but that just gives us more motivation to help you recover. We love you, you are worth recovery." Demi said, lifting my head out of my hands. "We are going to help you recover, and you're going to survive this again."

"I don't want to hurt you. Do you think mom would let me go somewhere for the night? I need to talk to someone." I asked Demi, getting off the floor.

"I'm not sure. If you explained why she might, but it's worth a shot. I love you, it'll get better Kenz, I promise." Demi said, getting off the floor and walking into the living room with me.

"Ma, can I go to a friends for the night? Dani freaked out on me in the kitchen and I need to get away for the night. I understand if you don't want me to, it's ok-"

"Of course you can go. Just promise me on thing?" I nod. "Stay strong baby. She'll come around eventually. She loves you." I smiled at mom, then went upstairs to pack.

I texted Heather while I was packing.

To: HeMo.<3

I need you. :'(

I sent it and kept packing. I was almost done when Heather called me.

"Hello?"

"What's wrong kiddo?"

"Dani freaked out on me. Can I come over for the night? I mean I know it's Christmas, so I understand if you don-"

"Of course you can. You're always welcome Kenz. You know that. When do you think you'll be here?"

"Uhmm, 15?"

"Alright. We need to talk, you sound like you've been crying. I'll see you then."

"Bye Heath."

I hung up, grabbed my bag, and walked downstairs. They were all watching a movie and the living room was dark, so I tried sneaking past. Didn't work. I was about to grab the door handle, when BAM! I found myself on my back, Dallas underneath me. I chuckled, getting off of her.

"Whatcha doing Kenzie?" Dallas asked, helping me up.

"Going to a friends. I'll tell you everything when I get back, promise Dally. I gotta go. I love you." I said, hugging her.
