Dani's POV

       Yesterday something snapped within me, I didn't want to talk to anyone about anything. So after I came home, I went straight to my room and cried until I fell asleep. All I remember is thinking about before I fell asleep was wanting Demi to come back home. I was already past hoping this would just be a horrible nightmare, I knew it was real life. 

       Don't get me wrong, I am hoping...no I am praying that Demi would except the help and recover soon. I really am. But I miss my sister. 

       When I woke up this morning, I was cold and my head was killing me. Then it hit me once again that Demi and I could no longer sleep in the same bed...considering she is like 2,000 miles away from me. This thought send me over the edge once again, causing tears to flow with no stop from my eyes.I was aware to the fact that I was crying, however I was not aware the I was emitting sobs from my mouth. That was until I felt my bed dip and arms snake around my waist, turning around I was able to make out Dallas's blurry figure. I burried my face in her chest and sobbed even more. 

    Dallas just laid there rubbing my beack, trying to no avail to calm me down, letting out the occasional "shh". 

       I guess I fell asleep once more because I was being shaken by Dallas when I opened my eyes. I saw Maddie standing there with a tray contaning a plate of food, a glass of water and some painkillers. I looked at Dallas who looked down at me, her eyes filled with worry and sorrow.

      I sat up, grabbing my phone from the headboard and clicked the text message icon. Clicking Dallas's contact I sent her a text. 

       "I'm not hungry" I typed out then send it to her. Seconds later her phone dinged and she looked at it. 

       "Really Dani? No talking?" Dallas asked

        I just shrugged my shoulders

      "Dani you need to eat something to take some medicine. Your head must be killing you sicne you've been crying quite a bit"  Dallas said

        I shook my head no. Deep down I knew she was right, my head did hurt but I didn't want any medicine because while it could numb the pain in my head, it couldn't numb the pain of missing my sister. 

        "Dani you need to eat!" Dallas said 

        Once again I shook my head. 

        Dallas turned around and said something to Maddie. Maddie in turn placed the tray of food on my desk and walked into my closet and Dallas turned back towards me.

        "Don't say I didn't warn you Dan" Dallas said

        Next thing I knew Dallas was throwing me over her shoulder and Maddie was returning from my closet carrying my double extra large Dallas cowboys hoodie. Suddenly I was scared and wished I ate before when Dallas first told me to eat. Dallas set me in my desk chair and Maddie tied my hoodie around me and my chair. Shit...they tied me to my chair.

        Knowing they were about to force feed me, I shot Dallas a death glare seeigna s she was the once standing in front of me. Suddenly my head was pulled back agaisnt my chair and I felt hands on my forehead and chin...well I now know what Maddie's job is. To make me chew. I couldn't help but wounder how they were going to make me swallow. I smirked at Dallas before noticing her smirk and determind facial expression. 

        Shit. Normally I was two steps ahead of her...but today it was the otehr way around. 

      That's when Dallas started to feed me and Maddie started to move my jaw making me chew. Dallas then nodded to Maddie, who in turn tilted my head back and rubbed my neck. 

        What the fuck am I? Apperently I'm a dog!

        Well it worked because I swallowed the food in my mouth. After about forty five minutes of force feeding me, I was finally done with the food on my plate. Dallas shoved the medicine in my mouth and held the water up to my lips. I swallowed it willingly. Finally I was let go from the bonds that kept me on the chair. I got up and shot both my sisters the death galre and left my room. I walked to one of the spear rooms..the one where mine and Demi's instruments were kept to be more exact. 

        Silently I wrapped my hand around the the neck of our favorite guitar. I picked it up then I walked to the corner of the room and slide down against the wall, sitting in the corner. I started to strum random chords..I didn't even realized those random chords where "Gift of a Friend" until Dallas and Maddie came in singing it. They finished singing just as I strummed the last chord. 

        Minutes of total silence passed us. Finally someone spoke up, it was Dallas who broke the deathly silence. 

        "You miss her already don't you" Dallas asked.

        I nodded my head.

        "Wait that was a stupid question. You missed her the second you left her at TK" Dallas said.

        Once again I nodded my head.

        "We miss her to Dani" Maddie said

        With that I dropped my head and just nodded my head slightly. 

Demi's POV

        I saw it in her eyes. I saw something snap inside my little Sage Bear. I hoped she wouldn't do anything to herself. I watched her walk out of TK with her shoulders droping with each step she took. I knew she was trying not to  cry. 

        They took me away and put me in the isolation room..aka the detox room. I was there to help start the process of getting healthy or something like that. I laid in the bed and soon fell asleep. When I woke up the following morning the first thing I was able to think about was Dani. I wounder how she's holding up. There was a knock at the door, soon it was opened and there stood a nurse with a tray of food. Well..this is it..my frist step to getting better. Time to eat some food. Shit..This is going to be really hard.  But I have to do it..I need to be in my sister's lives.
