Take a Blow for Love (Editing)

Chapter 6 (Edited)

I dedicate this chapter to michi2020 and Silent_Warrior for leaving their suggestions last chapter. And Silent_Warrior, I hope this chapter is long enough for you. ;)

Demi's POV

After that motivational speech that girl, Sierra told me, I think I have enough courage to tell someone about my feelings. It was a long shot and I hope she doesn't get too shocked of what happened. Thank God she's here tonight to support me. I called her up on my phone.

"Marissa?" I said into the receiver. I knew I could always count on her. Plus, the fact she isn't family. Well she is but…you get what I mean right?

"Yes, Demi?"

I was about to speak, but I got interrupted.

"Demi!" I flicked my head to where the voice is. It was my friend and creative director, Nick Jonas. I've invited him along for the tour because I knew he had a lot of good ideas we could use the shows. "You're on stage in ten!"

I sighed in relief. Saved by the bell.

"Ok. Thanks Nick! Tell them I'm coming!" I shouted back. After signalling he got the message, he ran off supposedly to prep the set crew.

"Sorry, Marissa. I have to go."

"Ok…" She said sounding unsure. Like I said, I couldn't let my fans down. I don't want them to think I'm some sort of diva. Plus, I wasn't ready to tell her just yet. I just can't.

As I stepped onto the platform in a crouch position that would lift me up on stage, I heard the screams of my Lovatics. A genuine smile broke through the frown. I felt the metal floor rise as I slowly straightened my legs and took in the atmosphere around me.

This was my time to shine.

"Putting my defenses up

Cause I don't wanna fall in love

If I'd ever do that

I think I'd have a heart attack"

The crowd screamed even more. It felt so good to be onstage. All this energy the audience gave off, I fed off of it. I almost forgot my problems and just lived in the moment.

I walked up the catwalk to the main stage continuing the song. There I threw a few sexy dance moves to satisfy the perverted fans. By the fifth song on the set list, I knew it was time.

I walked back onto the catwalk and searched the crowd for the girl, while the fans were screaming, reaching towards me, wanting me to touch their hands. I shook several hands as I made my way down. Then, on my left, I spotted her. I stopped in the middle of Unbroken and I started to give a speech.

"I dedicate this next song to a fan who I've met before the show. And I would like to thank her for helping me see the light again."

My fans erupted into screams as they heard the start of the song and died down as I started singing.

"I can't sleep tonight

Wide awake and so confused Everything's in line

But I am bruised

I need a voice to echo

I need a light to take me home

I kinda need a hero

Is it you?"

I pointed into the crowd and towards Sierra. I gestured her to come up on stage from the small staircase on the side. Her face was lit up with surprise as she raced her way onstage.

Sierra's POV

Am I seeing right? Because it seemed like Demi was asking me to come onstage. Then she pointed somewhere to her right and I saw some stairs. I opened my mouth in shock. She is! I CAN'T FUCKING BELIEVE IT! OH MY FUCKING GOD!

I made my way through the crowd and ran up the stairs to meet my idol face to face. Someone from the stage crew gave me a microphone and I continued the song while trying not to freak out.

"I never see the forest for the trees

I could really use your melody

Baby I'm a little blind

I think it's time for you to find me"

We sang the chorus facing one another and Demi walked up the catwalk and passed her hand over the crowd of screaming girls wanting to touch her hand.

Then I saw something no one would have ever expected.

With Demi's back turned, a man from the other side of the stage drew out a gun, raised his arm and aimed it towards Demi.

What I did next would change both our lives forever.

I actually finished writing this chapter last night, but because Demi had a concert, I didn't want to upload it, thinking I would jinx her concert. I don't know, I'm just superstitious at times. Lol.
