Two Pieces. (Cher Lloyd and Demi Lovato.)

Chapter Twenty-Five.

Demi Lovato’s POV.

I woke up way before Cher did. I grabbed my phone and checked the time, it was only 7.30am. I sighed and looked at her. I could not believe how lucky I was. I put Cher through a lot of shits and she was still here, with me. Even when she had all the reasons to leave me, she stayed. After a while I decided to get up, without waking her up. I made myself a cup of coffee and walked to the living room. I grabbed Cher’s guitar and started playing some songs.
 “Clinging to me
Like a last breath you would breathe
You were like home to me
I don't recognize the street

Please don't close your eyes
Don't know where to look without them
Outside the cars speed by
I never heard them until now

I know you care
I know it is always been there
But there's trouble ahead, I can feel it
You are just saving yourself when you hide it.” I sighed and ran a hand in my hair. I looked up and saw Cher smiling lovingly at me.
“Hi.” She whispered smiling shyly.
“Hey, I’m sorry, did I wake you up?”
“Oh no you didn’t, don’t worry.”
“Can you come here please? I’d like to talk to you.” I said and she frowned slightly. “Don’t worry, it’s not a bad thing, I just need you to know something.” I patted the sofa next to me where she sat.
“I really liked your version of Ellie’s song by the way.” She said which made me smile.
“Thanks babe. It made me think of you.”
“Yeah?” She said, clearly surprised. I nodded smiling and I took her hand in mine.
“Look, I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am.”
“Demi it's fine, we don’t have to talk about that anymore.” She was about to get up but I tightened my grip on her hand which made her stop moving.
“Please, just stay and listen to what I have to say, okay?”
“Sure.” She gave me a weak smile and waited for me to start talking.
“I’m sorry I pushed you away, I ignored you and mistreated you. I have spent years trying my hardest to be mad at my father, I tried everything I could, I wrote a lot of songs about him and our relationship, I kept telling to myself that I was better off without him, that I didn’t need him. And then, this happened and it just broke my heart. I know I was out of control, I know I got you worried about me, and I know I made you go through hell. I shouldn’t have taken you for granted. I’m so sorry, you have no idea. I don’t want to lose you, you mean the world to me.” I said and Cher gave me another weak smile.
“I’m still here, and I’m not going anywhere. I know and I understand how hard everything is for you. I’m not going to lie, it wasn’t easy. But I know how I feel about you Demi.” She said blushing slightly. I knew she was not comfortable speaking about the way she felt so I just smiled widely and nodded. She got up, kissed my forehead and started walking towards the kitchen. “Do you want a cup of coffee?”
“Yeah sure, thank you.”

“So, what are we going to do today?” Cher asked as she handed me a cup of coffee.
“You’ll see later.” I winked at her and she pouted. “Why should I tell you what we are going to do when you are the one who always organizes surprise dates?” I smiled and she shook her head.
“You know what I really want to do?” She asked smiling cheekily.
“No, but I am pretty sure I’m not going to like whatever that is.”
“Do we have time to watch a movie?”
“Yeah, what you want to watch?” I said puzzled and she smiled.
“You’ll see! Stay here!” She ran to her bedroom and came back with a DVD in her hands. “You’ll love it.” I tried to see what movie it was but she was hiding the box behind her back. “Don’t look, you said we could watch a movie.” She walked towards the TV, put the DVD on the reader and took the remote control. She sat next to me, smirking. I frowned at her and I gasped when I realized which movie it was. She quickly pressed play and started yelling. “THIS IS REAL, THIS IS MEEEEEE!”
“Cher give me the remote!” I said as I tried to grab her in my arms but she managed to get up from the couch and started running away.
“NEVER!” She yelled and put the TV sound louder.
“Come here.” I said as I got up, facing her. The only thing between us was the coffee table.
“Nope, I have a better view from here.” She winked at me which made me laugh.
“Give it to me, now.”
“Or what?”
“I won’t take you out.”
“Which would mean I can spend my day watching Disney movies starring the amazing Demetria Devonne Lovato.” She giggled.
“Are you sure about that?” I said trying to stay serious but it was quite hard when she was being this cute.
“Do you think I’m scared?” She chuckled and before she said anything else, I quickly walked on the table and grabbed her. She tried to make me let go of her but I did not and both of us fell on the floor. I was hovering her and she was still holding the remote control tightly with both of her hands.
“Give me the remote Lloyd.” I said smiling and she shook her head.
“Or?”
“Or I will just kiss you.” I said without being able to think of anything else, Cher giggled and I gasped, preetending to be offended. She smiled and threw the remote away, she wrapped her arms around me, making me lay on top of her.
“Too bad.” She smiled and I shook my head. I leaned in and kissed her tenderly.
“I love you.” I said as I was looking in her eyes.
“I love you more.” She smiled.
“Nope, I love you more.”
“Lovato, I have 3 younger siblings, I can do that all day.”
“That’s not fair.” I said and she pecked my lips.
“Yup, I know.”
