Saved By You- A Demi Lovato Fanfiction

Chapter 4 part 2

Demi POV

"The happiest business in all the world is that of making friends. And no investment of the street pays larger dividends, for life is more stocks and bonds, and love than rate percent, and he who gives in friendships name shall reap what he has sent."

A week has passed. My family just left. I'm looking around for Colton but I can't find him. I run into someone.

"I'm sorry..." A little voice says. I look.

"It's okay. Are you Grace?" She nods. "I'm a friend of your brothers..."

"Your Demi lovato..." She says. I nod. "Why are you friends with Cole?" We laugh but her smile quickly fades.

"So where's your brother?"

"He couldn't come. I don't know why but my dad said that he was busy." I nod.

"What about your mom?" Her whole mood changes. "Sorry.... I didn't mean to..."

"No it's okay. My mom died when I was little... Four. It's always been just me, dad, and Colton. If course dad worked three jobs... One during the weekdays, one during the week nights, and a small one on the weekend... He still always seemed to make time for us though..."

"Wow..." I say.

She nods. "With him at work Colton would pick me up from school, make me dinner, put me to bed... He was only nine when mom died. When he was twelve dad started letting us stay home alone and he would watch me."

"He's a great guy." I say.

"He's the best brother I could ask for... I feel like I disappointed him." She says.

"Grace..."

"You can call me Gracie... Everyone else does."

"Okay. Well I had a chance to talk to Colton last weekend and I can assure you that he is not disappointed in you. He's proud of you for getting help... You know I felt the same way when I first came in here... I've been in here for a little over a month and I've realized that what makes you strong is asking for help... Not by sitting at home pretending your strong when really your breaking down on the inside..." She smiles.

"Well this is my first two weeks in here, I haven't talked to anybody in here... Well except you... And right now this place is living hell." I nod.

"I know how you feel. I'm not gonna lie... After a month it's still a living hell." She laughs. I look at the time. "I gotta get going... But please tell your brother next time he is here that I want to talk to him and I hope to see you around." She nods. I give her a hug and we go our separate ways.
