To Rekindle

Chapter 23

Thania and Madison could defiantly see that Demi and I were acting weird. They were trying to act normal, but I could tell that they could tell something was off between us two.

They had no idea.

I don't want Demi to leave. She was supposed to stay a little longer. We just found each other again, I-I can't. I just can't. I really don't know how to tell Thania and Madison. I need to talk to Demi about that.

Right now, I was sitting on my bed, cross-legged, writing in a notebook. I needed to make the contents of this notebook extra special.

I heard a knock on the door.

"Come in" I yelled. It was Demi who walked in.

"Hey" she said.

"Hey" I said back. Demi laid on my bed and rested her head on my lap. I stroked her hair. "How are we going to tell Madison and Thania"? I asked.

"I say we just tell them" Demi whispered. I sighed and nodded my head, even though she couldn't see it.

I sighed and slouched as I kept stroking Demi's hair.

..................................

I walked into the living room with 4 cups of water. I handed them out to every one and sat down on the brown comfortable chair.

"Ok, what is going in here?" Thania asked. I sighed. Demi glanced at the carpeted ground.

"Demi is-" I started. "Leaving tomorrow" Demi finished for me.

"WHAT?" Madison and Thania shouted in unison.

I nodded my with my eyes shut. "No" Madison said. "But she hasn't even been here that long though"

"Yeah, I know. That's what is most sad about it".

"I was supposed to stay here for another week, but my manager called and said that...the uhh...schedule changed." Thania shook her head.

She leaned forward and hugged me. She grabbed Demi's arm and pulled her in while Madison joined as well. I don't know how long we stayed like that, but I did know that I never wanted to let go.

And so I didn't.
