For The Love Of A Daughter

Chapter Eighteen

A/N: OOPSS I lied... I accidentally didn't look hard enough at the bottom of my crap for my notebook. Whew.. Thank god. Here you lovelies go. Sorry for the wait. Long chapter and smut. Hopefully that makes up for it?

ALLI POV

I was woken up by Demi jumping on me.

"ALLI ALLI ALLI WAKE UPPP!" I groaned and slowly opened my eyes. As I did, she blew one of those party noise makers in my face.

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Demi shouted.

"Demi.. Don't you think it'd be nice to let me sleep in on my birthday?"

"Hmm.. No not really" she said while giggling.

"I made some birthday breakfast for you" she said, setting a tray on my lap. She made me Mickey Mouse pancakes with 'happy birthday' written in syrup and a face made of whip cream and strawberries. She also had gotten me Starbucks. And sitting at the top of the tray separate from the food was a box. I looked at her curiously and she smiled shyly while picking up her guitar. Oh no, it's gonna be something sweet and I'm gonna cry. She began to strum and I slowly opened up the box. It was a necklace with a heart and infinity sign. On the infinity sign there was an engraving that read 'I'll love you this long' and on the heart it read 'you're my exception -D' I had tears in my eyes and Demi started to sing The Only Exception by Paramore. I bawled.

"When I was younger, I saw my daddy cry

And curse at the wind

He broke his own heart and I watched

As he tried to reassemble it

And my momma swore

That she would never let herself forget

And that was the day that I promised

I'd never sing of love if it does not exist

But darling, you are the only exception

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

Maybe I know, somewhere deep in my soul

That love never lasts

And we've got to find other ways to make it alone

Or keep a straight face

And I've always lived like this

Keeping a comfortable distance

And up until now I had sworn to my self that I'm content with loneliness

Because none of it was ever worth the risk

Well you are the only exception

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

I've got a tight grip on reality

But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
