Not My Sister (Demi Lovato Fan Fiction)

Chapter 5

Daniella's pov

So just like that she said it, I know I should believe her but I can't, not now anyway. In case you haven't noticed I have major trust issues, according to some people-not mentioning names-I always push them away but it's not my fault. Anxiety gets the best of me and I don't know how to control it.

"What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing! Why do you care you always push me away so what's the point! What's the point of living or breathing the same air as everybody else? Huh! Tell me that Demetria." I stood with fury, hands clenched down to my sides.

Demi's face resembled shock,hurt and anger in one.

"You know what?! I'm tired okay Daniella! You think you can do whatever the hell you want. I'm tired of you acting all innocent up in here but in real life your just messed up. Real bad!"

That stung really bad but that sting only made me angrier "What? You liar you do-..." I got cut off by a hand colliding with my cheek. The familiar stinging burned my skin. It felt like a hole was being drilled through the surface of my face.

Eventhough I'm used to it, it still surprises me. Demi didn't even react but instead she stayed in a trance. A few minutes ago she was saying she loved and cared for me. Then right after she yells at me and slaps. I know I started it but I've got another secret, anger problems. She is the only person in this messed up family that knows.

I know for certain that my family is messed up because of me. No blame on them.

I shook my head. "Just when I thought everything was getting better." Demi's head shook awake. "But I was wrong,I'm always wrong and so stupid, too gullible to fall in to the traps that lay waiting for me. Every single time. No one knows what I feel,see or hear. They only care about about themselves. Here I am waiting for you to accept me for myself and who I am. I thought I could trust you Demi but now I'm not sure."

"Daniella..."

"Please just leave me alone." I whispered bearly audible.

I wiped away the tears that somely fell on my cheeks and ran into the bathroom. Locking the door, I broke into heart wretched sobs.

Why did she say she love me and then hit me?

I know I'm not perfect nor do I wish to be. I just want somebody to love me.

I picked myself up and walked out of the bathroom. Stopping when two bodies stopped me. It's was Dallas and Demi. Great!

"Hey kiddo you okay?" Dallas spoke softly. I nodded and walked past them and out of my bedroom door.I walked to the kitchen and found my mom.

"Momma?" She spun on her heal. "Babygirl what's wrong?"

I lift my arms up towards her and she picks me up.

"D-Demi hurt me momma." I showed her my cheek and she gasped. "She did what!" I winced.

Her glare softened. "Sorry baby. Let me put ice on that."

She reached over to the frezzer and grabbed an ice pack. I winced as the cold material layed on my cheek. I saw the pain in my mother's eyes. "Sorry babygirl. Keep this on for 30 minutes don't take it off." She spoke so sternly I was scared to find out what she was going to do if I did.

I nodded obediently. "Okay Mom." I whispered. She kissed my forehead and put me in the livingroom and walked off. Then shouting "DEMETRIA!" I followed slightly just after Dallas dashed from Demi's room. I placed my ear to the door and listened...

Demi's pov

I heard the footsteps, I heard the shout. Ohmigod. I glanced at Dallas and she shrugged. My mom burst into the room glaring at both of us. Her eyes shot to Dallas telling her 'You better move your ass right now before I whip it' Dallas dashed out, leaving me with my angry mother.

"Demetria?Tell why you did you hit her?" Anger laced in her tone. I couldn't speak a word, my mind was still. It didn't want this neither did I.

"Demetria answer me!"

"Im sorry." I choked out. "Sorry?Really! you hit her.Not me." I hung my head low. I heard her sigh as the bed dipped next to me. "Hunny you have to tell her sometime."

I closed my eyes and breathed out. "I c-can't, she will hate me just like N-Nick did."

"No she won't." I shook my head. "No momma she will, her whole life has been a lie, I'm her mother and I haven't treated her right at all."

A voice gasped, oh no...
