*Lexi's POV* As I walk through the curtain I immediately see her standing there, she is smiling, she is smiling at me. I walk over to her, making sure to walk as enticingly as I can. She looks at me, up and down, as if judging me or checking me out, I didn't mind that, though; after all, I had done the exact same thing moments before. "Hello," She said.


"Um, hey. You have a really good voice; I was watching you on stage earlier" I told her. She was still smiling, and that made me smile.


"I know, I saw you! You almost knocked out that poor guy trying to get to the front row! You must be a pretty big Lovatic, huh?" She asked, giggling. What the fuck is a Lovatic?


"Yeah! I'm a huge Lovatic" I said, trying to sound convincing


"Oh, awesome! What's your favorite song?" Well fuck...


"Uh, The song you sang on stage! It was awesome! That's on your new album, right?" I assumed.


"That song was a cover, I know a Lovatic when I see one, Nice try though sweetie," She told me, putting her hand on my shoulder. I just looked at her hand, then looked at her, then looked back at her hand again. "I'm Demi, and you are?"

"Lexi. Lexi Knight" I told her, shaking her hand.


"Well, Lexi, it was lovely meeting you, but I promised my friends I'd spend the night with them, but maybe if you stick around for a while, we can talk after?" Demi offered.


"Sure, sounds good, Demi. I'll see you when you're done"


"Good, come back here at about 12:30; Is that okay?"


"Yeah, of course, I'll see you then" I smile at her. Really that's not okay. Simply because I can't tell the time... I can't count very well either. As a kid, I was 'slow' and eventually, the teacher just gave up and didn't teach me. I dropped out a few years after that when I was 8. There's no point going if I can't understand any of it. The other kids would mock me, as kids do, but a good beating solved that. I got a disciplinary, they got a busted eye.I made my way over to the bar and sat down, greeting the bartender again. "Hey man, my watch is messed up, could you do me a favour and lemmie know when it's 12:30? Please?"


"Sure kid, no problem. What can I get you? I talked to my boss, he said that we can't serve you your last order, sorry."


"Thanks, I'll have as many shots as this will buy," I tell him, handing him $20.00" "Damn girl... Okay then" He takes the money and starts pouring shots, lots of shots.


"Maybe you can help me with all of these, huh?" I ask him, smiling.


"Hah, I'd love to. But I can't drink on the job. But my shift does end soon... What the hell, okay! Cheers!" He yells


"Cheers!" I cheer back.Before I know it, the room is spinning and I can't see straight, let alone walk... The bartender is sitting on my lap, trying to kiss me. I hear someone yell towards us"Hey! Purve! Get off of her!" I feel his weight shift off me, and a pair of warm hands around me. Suddenly I feel myself moving, but I'm not walking. What's happening? I open my eyes to see Demi's face, she is carrying me. "Are you okay? Jesus you're drunk Lexi. Where are you staying? I'll drop you off." She told me"I don't remeber" I mumbled, snuggling into her.


"Well I can't leave you here..."
