A week passes and Demi has been having tutoring from Joe every night after school and it's proving to help from the scores of her last test. Joe is happy he managed to help for out knowing she has been struggling from the start. Demi has still been getting bullied, not about Joe but they have found other reasons why but she's refrained from cutting which she is quite proud of. Joe is currently joined in his classroom with his Uncle.

"You'll never believe how much people have raised to hear you perform." He says taking a seat next to Joe.

"Wait I have to perform?" Joe questions.

"Yeah, just you alone raised five hundred dollars!" He exclaims making Joe's eyes widen, why would they want to hear him perform? It's a good job he does perform otherwise he'd screwed. "You have to perform 3 songs, you alright with that?"

"I guess so."

"Could you give this to Demi next lesson?" He questions passing him a sheet. "She's one of the students performing, she has a amazing voice." He says standing up.

"Um sure." He says as his Uncle walks out without another word.

Students begin piling in soon filling up the classroom talking loudly, Joe's noticed how much they've warmed up to him since he's started. Luckily he hasn't really had to tell any of them off, he gained a well behaved class. He stands up to the front shushing everyone, they soon quiet down allowing him to talk.

"Demi can you come grab this?" He asks making Demi stand up walking to him, he passes her a sheet and she walks away reading it as she walks. He begins explaining what the work is until he gets interrupted by Stacy.

"Sir are you performing at the Christmas concert?" She asks totally going of the topic.

"Um yeah I am, 3 songs." He says seeing a smirk plaster over her face.

"What songs you doing?" She asks again.

"I have no idea and even if I did I wouldn't tell you, now let's get back onto the subject."

Joe grabs his coffee and walks back through to his room setting it down on the table and taking a seat at his desk. He sets his head on his crossed arms just wanting to fall asleep right there but knows he's got Demi coming any minute for some tutoring.

"Um are you okay?" Demi asks standing in the doorframe, Joe lifts his head up and looks at her  nodding.

"I'm fine, just tired." He admits motioning for her to come in, she takes a seat at a desk making Joe come and sit next to her.

"You always look tired, don't you sleep well?" She asks.

"Nope, I've gotten used to it by now," He admits.

"Is that why you're seeing a counsellor?" She questions and he nods leaving it there not really wanting to go into any more detail.

"Anyway what you wanna go over today?" He asks and Demi tells him a subject she's been struggling on, Joe begins teaching her some easier methods to get the correct answer but she can't lie, she's still struggling. Both Joe and Demi are amazed that they can just act like they usually did around each other.
