I kept my eyes locked on Sophie and Joe as they danced together. The way his arms wrapped around her and the way that they smiled at each other caused my heart to ache slightly.
Why did I destroy everything that I had with Demi?
I briefly glanced over at the table where she was sat, her eyes instantly locking with mine. Had she been staring at me too? She almost instantly looked away, her eyes glancing down at the table and I found myself smiling as she stroked a strand of hair behind her ear, seeming to act as if she was shy.
"Mr and Mrs Jonas would like to welcome their friends and family to the dance floor" the smile that took over Sophie's face caused my heart to melt. The love they have for each other is something that I've only ever shared with Demi and I threw it away. I pushed myself up from the table and instantly began towards Demi who was completely oblivious that I was making my way towards her. Everyone on her table noticed me before Demi did. Dianna had a huge smile spread across her face while Dallas turned to smirk at me. I tapped Demi gently on the shoulder which caused her to turn, her eyebrows furrowed together as her eyes watched me curiously.
"How would you like to dance, Miss Lovato?" Demi's mouth tugged into a smile and my heart skipped a beat at the sight.
"I would love too" she lowered her hand into mine and I helped her to stand, my hand linking with hers as I gently pulled her towards the dance floor, having only now just noticed that she'd taken her shoes off. I slipped my arm around her waist and pulled her as closely into me as I could, my hand still linked with hers as her other hand settled on my shoulder. "You know I won't be dancing for long, right?" I nodded with a chuckle.

"I know, D" we shared a smile as we continued to sway along to the music that was playing through the large room.
"They look so happy" my eyes wondered into the direction that Demi was looking and I smiled along with her at the looks that Sophie and Joe were giving each other. "I can't wait until I have that one day" she mumbled, and I wasn't sure whether I was supposed to hear it or not, so I remained silent. "Half the time I can't believe how my life has actually turned out. I never thought I'd be able to have kids because of what I put my body through years ago but here I am, pregnant with Nick Jonas' son" I released a breathless laugh and leant to press a kiss to her forehead. I don't think either of us noticed the looks that we were getting from everybody around us. The silence fell around us until the song came to an end, but it was at that moment that I was being pulled away by Joe. I rolled my eyes which only caused Demi to giggle as she watched me get dragged into the centre of the dance floor. Now, we're about to make complete fools of ourselves. Joe planned for us to do a choreographed routine that we have been working on for over 5 months. I'm not a dancer and the whole thing was terribly embarrassing, the only thing getting me through was Demi's laugh that was echoing through the room.

"You're so lucky slow dancing doesn't require many moves" Demi spoke with a smirk. I rolled my eyes and sarcastically chuckled which caused her to loudly laugh. I couldn't help but to widely smile at the sound.

"You not going up there?" I gently lowered myself down beside Demi who was leant back in her chair, her hand caressing her belly.
"Do I look like I can catch the bouquet?" she questioned; her eyebrows raised as she pointed down at her stomach.
"You could barge people out the way. I'd say you're at an advantage" she rolled her eyes causing me to chuckle.
"You have any plans for your birthday?"
"I'm off to my parents for the week. I'm sure they can add one more person. Joe's not gonna be there so you can just take his space."
"I'd love to, but I have a meeting. They want to discuss what's gonna happen after little Jonas gets here. I don't even know what I want to do anymore" I leant towards her, stroking a strand of hair behind her ear. "I mean, do I want to take a break for a little while? Do I want to release the album that I've been working on?" she turned to face me, her eyes staring into mine as if searching for the answer.
"I can't answer that for you, Dems. Just know that whatever you decide, I will stand by you 100%."
"But if I release the album, then that means having to do a promotional tour which means you being away from Squid" I shook my head and adjusted myself on the chair so I was sat a little closer to Demi. "Nick, I-I don't want to keep him away from you, he's your son as much as he is mine. He has half of your DNA" I couldn't help but to smile as I glanced down at her stomach, gently lowering my hand onto her bump.
"Demi, I want you to be happy and if releasing your album is something that you want to do, then do it. We'll come to the touring bit when we get to it" she brought her lower lip between her teeth as she watched me.
"I don't think he ever stops moving unless he's asleep" I chuckled as I pressed an innocent kiss to Demi's cheek. "I want him here but on the other hand I don't because I don't want to lose this feeling" I had to try and ignore the tingles as Demi lowered her hand on top of mine.
"You can have more kids, Dems."
"Can I get this one out of me first before we start talking about a second?" I chuckled but couldn't help the slight thump to my heart.
Did I read the totally wrong way into that sentence?
