Demi's POV

I woke up with my arms still around Katie and Maddie. Maddie was softly snoring and Katie was squirming in my arms just a tad bit. i propped my self up on my elbow and stared down upon her, admiring her beautiful features. Suddenly I came face to face with a paniced looking Katie, who silently started to cry when our eyes met. I quickly reached up with the arm that was wrapped around my daughter and sister, whipping her tears aways with my thumb.

"Sshh babygirl, everything will be okay. We will talk about everything in the morning, go back to sleep. I love you Katie" I whisper to her, leaning down and leaving a kiss on her forehead. 

"Alright mamma. I love you to"  She whispered to me as her eyes closed and she fell asleep. I stayed awake until until I was one hundred percent sure that she was asleep once more before I pulled her close to my body and then pulled Maddie closer to us, then I allowed my own eyes to close and myself to drift off to sleep once more. 

Maddie's POV

Last night it was all three of us in one bed,  Katie slept between Demi and I. I think it was some of the best sleep I have gotten in a long time. It reminded me of when I was a little kid, when I would have a "sleepover" with Demi and she would keep me close as we slept. 

I woke up to Demi starring at me and Katie, I felt a smile forming on my lips.

"Morning Dem" I whispered to her

"Morning Mad"  She whispered right back

"Hey Mad? Can we go downstairs and talk about everything Katie told her"  Demi asked me

"Sure Dem, lets go talk in the kitchen"  I told her 

Demi carefully un-wounded Katie's arms from around her and we both carefully slipped out of the bed and headed downstairs to the kitchen. 

Once we got to the kitchen, Demi sat down on a bar stool right next to the kitchen island and I sat across from her.

"Alright Maddie, tell me what Katie said last night.."  Demi said to me. 

"She will hate me but its worth it, just to see her healthy. I love her Dem."  I told her, I was playing with my finger nails

"Awe, kiddo I know you do. Believe me I do. Now spill the beans"  Demi told to me

" Alright. Well when I went into her room last night she thought that she didn't need to tell me anything because you and I already talked so she didn't need to tell me anything." I told Demi

"Alright, go on"  Demi told me as she looked slightly scared

"At first she tried walking away after she said what she said, I reached out and wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her back to me, as soon as my arms tightened around her hips, her face contorted and she looked in pain. She then said her demons are back and they are getting louder, she feels like such a failure of a daughter. How she is your daughter and you are her hero and warrior and how you have inspired millions of people to start their recovery when she can't even recover herself. She does not want to be the reason you relaps and how she tried to hide it but it didnt work out." I told to Demi

As I finished I realized that I was longer able to look Demi in her eyes and was still picking at my finger nails. I looked up and Demi had tears in her eyes. I stood up and walked over to Demi and wrapped my arms around her, once I did she burried her face into my neck and let her tears flow. Once she finished crying, She wiped the tears with the back of her hand. 

I unwrapped my arms from around her and she got up and walked to the stairs. I think she is going to talk to Katie.
