meeting at the right time

chapter 3

Demi's pov
I was wondering what norman meant and i walked out of the crowd and searched through my phone. I was thinking about what he would want me to find and i opened my notes and there was something i haddent safed. I read it and smiled. 'Here's my number. I defenitely wanna talk without the crowd.' I showed it to macy and she smirked. "Told you he would like you." I scoffed and texted him. 'Thanks for the number. If you want to join me and macy, we've got a cottage at the lake. Its quiet there and private. Xxx demi.' We were walking to the train and i got a text back.
'Jeffrey and i are so coming we need a break. Text me the address and we'll be there at seven?' I was so enjoying this. 'Seven sounds awesome. I'll put some beers in the fridge. Xxx :-)' i had a quick reply. 'Girl you have just read my mind see ya at seven.' I texted him the address and i was smiling from ear to ear. "Looks like you got a chance to finally tell him everything sweetie." I sighed. "Yeah but how is he gonna take it?" She shook her head. "it doesnt matter. He just needs to know." We got on our train and went back to the cottage.

We had gone to the nearest supermarket to get some stuff for tonight. I was struggling with my clothes again. "Seriously dem? Just grab something gorgeous and put it on." I sighed and decided to ask norman. I knew it was stupid but another opinion wasnt bad. 'Hey norman sorry to bother you but i'm going through a clothes crisis right now and i dont know what to do.' I was checking everything but i was so confused. My phone buzzed and i bit my lip. 'Just wear something you feel compfy in. Think of it as having a party what would you wear. Something fit for a model maybe. :-)' i scoffed at his last words. 'Thats not funny reedus, but okay you asked for it.' I got a text back right away. 'Now you're making me curious.' I laughed. 'You just have to wait till later :P.' I took on my black dress with wings on the back. I had bought that in honor of daryl. I loved that dress. I came out and mace smiled at me. "I told you, you look good in everything." I bit my lip. "I kinda asked norman's advice too." She gasped. " what did he say?" "Wear something compfy, for a party and something model like." She laughed. "He is so gonna regret saying that." i nodded. "Yeah but do i look okay in this?" She rolled her eyes. "Okay you need to stop. You are a pretty girl okay. You look gorgeous in that dress. If a guy doesnt see that he is blind." I smiled. "Go and put yours on too." She sighed. "You know i dont like to wear dresses." I scoffed. "I dont care. I'm not gonna wear one alone." She rolled her eyes and went into her room to go get dressed. She came out with a pretty retro dress. She liked vintage and stuff. "See you look really beautiful in a dress. You should wear that more often."

We had made some snacks to serve when they came. "Those wraps look awesome dem." I smiled. "Yeah i know. I have to restrain myself not eating them all before they are here." Suddenly i got a text. 'We're on the way. Had some technical difficulties.' I frowned. 'Okay see you soon.' "They're on the way. He had some probs."

Norman's pov
We arrived a little late at the cottage. Jeffrey told me it was my fault. We knocked on the door and macy stood there in a nice dress. "Hi macy. Thanks for having us." She smiled. "Come in dem is still busy in the kitchen showing off for you two." JD chuckled. 'Yeah we're late because this dude was having a crisis with his outfit." Macy smiled. "Well it looks like they have that in common." We stepped inside and i gave her a bottle of wine. I knew girls liked to get stuff like that. "Where's demi?" Macy pointed the way to the kitchen and i went to look for her. I could hear some music and i saw her dancing on it. She had a killer dress on. The winged back was awesome. She had moves too. I cleared my troath and she jumped. "Damn it norman, you dont do that to a girl who is holding a knife." I laughed. "Sorry i was just watching you. Nice dress." She blushed. "Is this what you meant by fit for a model?" I smiled. "A model has awesome dresses." She looked down. "Hey but none of them could wear this dress as good as you do." She smiled and bit her lip. "I got a bottle of wine for tonight but i wanted to give you something special." She frowned. I gave her a small bag and she took it out. "Omg norman that is so sweet." I had bought her a chocolate shoe with some more chocolate in it. "You know how to make a girl happy." I chuckled. "Yeah it took all my will power not to eat it." She laughed. "Maybe we could eat it together later." I nodded. "I hold you to that." She smiled. "You can go to the living room. I'll be right out." "Do you want me to take something in there?" She shook her head. "No you and JD are our guests so go sit down." I walked out and went back to JD and macy.

"What took you so long man?" I scoffed. "I was giving her her present." Macy frowned. "Yeah my man over here bought her chocolates." Macy smiled. "He cant do anything wrong now. Chocolate is the key to winning that one over." i frowned. "are you serious its that easy?" she laughed. "no i am just kiddin. my friend isnt the kind of girl who gets hit on. she doesnt like that. she likes having control." JD scoffed. "so she is a dominant one?" macy smiled. "she just doesnt like to have men telling her what to do. she had guys like that and she had enough." suddenly demi came in. "dont say to much about me mace. you know i dont like that." macy looked down. "i know sweetie i didnt." she placed a snack on the table. "hey sweetheart what is this?" JD asked. "well these are wraps filled with smoked salmon, some herb cheese and lettuce." i took one and ate it. "wow that is tasty. i could use this for an idea for the restaurant. i'm kinda in the healthy shit." she smiled. "i know thats why i made them." i got another one. "what do you guys wanna drink?" "what do you serve?" she smiled. "wine, beer, soda, coffee, tea and juice." JD chuckled. "he's gonna act stupid." he looked at me. "no i'm not." he scoffed. "yeah you were gonna ask the juice werent you?" i laughed. "yep but i'm not gonna ask now you've ruined it." she giggled. "2 beers sweetheart." she wanted to leave but macy stopped her. "i'll go get it sweetie, you go sit down." they gave eachother this look and it bothered me a little. she didnt look pleased to have to listen to mace. "hey i heard you had a crisis with your dress. it looks fine what you're wearing." JD said. "yeah usually i dont have a problem with it but norman makes me nervous." he chuckled and i eyed her. "well you're not alone. he didnt know what to wear either." She giggled. "What? You always look handsome no matter what you wear." I blushed. "You need to say that to him plenty more times because he just doesnt believe he's a chick magnet." I scoffed. "Thats the thing. Its because he's so humble that we like him so much." JD smirked. "Looks like you do a lot more than just like him sweetheart." She frowned. "How's that?" "Your eyes are giving it away. I know how love looks like." She looked down. "I've never met him how can you love a guy then." JD chuckled. "The eyes never lie toots." I stomped him because i could tell she was feeling uncomfortable. "What man? Its a nice girl and she seems genuine thats all i was pointing out." I shook my head. "Girls like me dont get noticed by men like him." I eyed her and that was harsh. "Sweetie what do you mean with men like me?" She sighed. "Handsome, sweet, unreachable." I frowned. "I'm sitting right here. Does that make me unreachable?" She chuckled. "Nevermind let us talk about something else please." This girl made me curious by the minute. "So jeffrey how's hilarie?" "She is doing great. She's with the kids now." She smiled. "I liked her on one tree hill. She was one of my favorite characters along with sophia bush ofcourse." He smiled. "You were the guy who liked lucas right?" She shook her head. "No i actually was into nathan. I have a thing for bad boys." JD laughed. "Yeah my man norman has played some jerks in his roles." She giggled. "Any man who can make a drug selling murderer rapist look good must have talent right?" I smirked. "I just dont like to do roles when i'm a good guy." "You played diego and lax. There were good men and hot as hell to look at. Sorry cant help it." I shrugged my shoulders. "I dont mind at least you arent crazy like most of them are." She chuckled. "You dont know that maybe i am." I shook my head. "No you're not otherwise you would have dont it already." She smiled. "I'm gonna get another snack be right back and gonna see whats keeping mace." she got up and went out of the room.
"Dude what are you doing?" He asked me. "What?" "Your freaking out over this girl." I scoffed. "I'm not freaking out." "Yeah you are and its showing." I sighed. "There is just something about her. Its like i did something to her and i dont know what." "We're here man maybe you can try to find out." "I dont know maybe she doesnt want to talk about it with all of us." He chuckled. "Then you just have to get her alone." The girls came back in and demi looked like she had been crying. "Hey everything okay?" She nodded. "Yeah i'm cool just had a bad moment for a second. Its fine now." Macy shook her head and thats how i knew it wasnt. I wasnt gonna push her for now.
