Witness (Nick & Demi) (Nemi)

XVII

Demi

I laid down on the back sit and tried to calm myself down

So many questions ran through my mind just from these past hours..

I was being followed by the biggest mafia gang of New York

Apparently they want to kill me because of my father.. aparently he is the Jonas' nemesis for some unknown reason..

But what did a drug dealer do to piss of Paul Kevin Jonas?..

And then the other part..

The other thing that broke my heart..

Nicholas

The Universe did work in some weird way.. it made me meet him only to rip him apart from my fingers not too long after..

- You okay? - I heard Alex ask quietly

- No..

He kept driving and I kept letting my thoughts flow.. Alex was the last thing I had.. well.. beside Batman, who is peacefully living at Alex's best friend house for a few days for protection

- You wanna talk about it?..

I shook my head - No.. - I said almost in a whisper

I didn't want to talk about it, not only because I didn't feel like it, but because I don't know how or what to feel..

We kept driving into the depths of the night until we found a motel on the sode of the road.. Alex paid for it in cash and insisted on staying with me

- I'm not gonna fucking leave you here all alone while you're being haunted! Besides, my house was taken over by the people who are following your ass do I really have nowhere to go

- Alex, I can't bring you with me! I am the fugitive, not you

- Demetria as we both can see, I also have my fucking ass on fire.. they went to my house!

- Well.. go to Arin's or something! You are not staying with me! - I said entering the room

I put down my bag and started taking off my things

- Why?

I took a deep breath and let it out - Just fucking go

I turned around and watched him shake his head as he came closer to me - Why? So you can fucking do this shit?

He picked up my arm and showed me my scars which were no news to him.. we've talked about this all before and now he was going to throw it all at me

- So you can fucking go buy some Vodka and drink away your problems?

I stomped my foot and snatched my arm from him - Yes! Now don't you dare fucking touch me 'cause you know I can fucking kill you with my pinky!

He chuckled - Whatever Demi, be the rock you wanna be.. be the fucking strict face you aspire to be, but don't come talk to me when you need help..

- I wasn't going to anyways!

He shut the door behind him and soon I heard him go down the stairs..

Time alone.. this was what I needed

I needed time..

To think, to process, to plan..

I needed to get on my shoes and be the big girl I always was.. the big girl I learned to be.. the one I was forced to be

An hour passed by.. I looked out the window and saw Alex's car still on the parking spot.. suddenly I felt bad..

He bought me the room and now I expelled him? Am I fucking insane?
