The Day I first Met You...

Chapter 11.

DEMI’s POV.

**The next morning**

I woke up on my hotel room floor with Marissa and Natalie snoring gently beside me, we’d had an old school slumber party last night – brought all the duvets and pillows from the three hotel rooms and made a big comfy nest, bought a ton of candy and popcorn and watched movies til 3am. It was perfect, I love tour life when everything is super charged and busy all the time but having a low key day like yesterday and being able to act like a fool with my best friends is a nice break from it all.

Today was back to non-stop again with press all morning and then the show tonight, I reached over and grabbed my iPhone from the bed and went onto twitter. I saw a ton of Lovatics tweeting about going to the show this evening which always gets me pumped to be my best, my fans are amazing, the money they must spend and lengths  they go to just to come see me live is dedication I’ve never known before!

I went back to the photo I’d tweeted out yesterday after we met Jasmine and checked to see if she’d responded in anyway. I scrolled through probably hundreds of retweets and replies before a conversation about the picture caught my eye.

@ItsQueenPaul: “@ddlovato @AllThatJasmine IS THIS YOU? YOU MET DEMI FUCKING LOVATO? CALL ME NOW OR YOU ARE NO LONGER MY FAVOURITE LESBIAN!”

@AllThatJasmine: “@ddlovato @ItsQueenPaul OMG yes its me OMG calm down!!!!!! I can’t call you idiot I still don’t have an American mobile phone im just on some shitty WIFI right now, when I’m back at the hotel ill skype you at Leahs.”

@ItsQueenPaul: “@ddlovato @AllThatJasmine are you telling me or yourself to calm down honey because ill say it one more time HOLY FUCKING SHITE THAT’S YOU AND DEMI LOVATO!!! I think this was worth you moving your ass to America!”

@AllThatJasmine: “’ddlovato @ItsQueenPaul ehm… both ASJKHSDFKSHFKAHG!!!!!!!”

I couldn’t contain my laughter as I retweeted the first one in the conversation. Still giggling at what I had read I clicked onto Jasmines twitter page, scrolling down for a while I found what I’d been waiting to see.

“MARISSA WAKE UP!” I shouted while shaking her, “MAAARRRRISSSAAAA!!!!!”

“Eugh, OMG what the hell Demi?” Natalie almost shouted bolting up still half asleep.

Marissa sat up sleepily and looked at me like I was crazy.

“Demi, why did you feel the need to wake me up yelling?”

“She’s coming to the concert Rissa, tonight! She saw the picture so I found her on twitter.”

Marissa’s eyes suddenly lit up and she grabbed my phone off me to see what I was looking at.

Natalie was confused.

“Wait, who are we talking about? Who is coming to the concert? Have you been stalking someone on twitter again Demi?”

I shot her an unimpressed look and what about to explain when Marissa cut in -

“Hold up! Woah woah woah. She’s gay?!?! Oooooo Demi! You are so in there!!”

“Marissa I told you it’s not like that,” I groaned blushing.

It was Natalie’s turn to make fun of me now,

“Oooh no, it so IS like that, look how red you’ve gone!!! Spill now Demetria.”

“That night after the first concert when we were all looking up the ‘lesbian for Demi’ videos I was looking at tumblr and found this girl who was posting pics of me and the normal stuff… but then I looked a bit more and read some of her posts and I don’t know Nat… I just feel something when I read her blog, like a connection with her. She’s been through a lot and just lost her Mother and has just moved across the country to like find her self or whatever. I mean yes she’s beautiful but I really want to get to know her, help her be strong and let her know she can do anything. So ive been talking to her on tumblr – but she doesn’t know its me, then we met her yesterday and no I guess she’ll be there tonight.”

When I finished explaining I could feel my cheeks still burning red and Marissa and Natalie were grinning at me. I was telling myself it really wasn’t anything more than that. I certainly thought she was attractive and the feelings in my stomach when I thought about her were driving me crazy but I wanted to at least be there for her as ‘Demi Lovato’ first. My music and story were obviously something meaningful to her from what I’d read and I wanted to reach out and help her find something in herself to smile about again, before  jumping in with any potential relationship stuff when in reality I barely knew the girl.

“Okay so whats the plan then?” Natalie said putting her arm around me and pulling me and Marissa into a group cuddle. She understood what my fans meant to me on that level, how I love to be there for them when they were in a bad place or struggling with life.

“Well she tweeted that she has the soundcheck and meet and greet package for the show, so maybe I could talk to her quickly at the meet and see if she can hang around after the show or something?”

“Yeah I could grab her at soundcheck and invite her to sit with us at the concert and then convince her to wait after.”

“Yes Rissa! Perfect!”

We had a plan, so now I just had to figure out what I wanted to say to Jasmine, how I could help her.
