Chapter 19

HEY. It's been so long, i know, and yeah. My muse has been low recently and i've had HUGE writers block, but i've managed to struggle out a chapter for you all(': I hope it's not too lame D: ANYWAYS. Enjoy, i hope? Comment, vote, fan, share. ;D I know it's short..but life's been chaotic recently...I shall try harder though! :)

After making up, Demi had run home to get changed and drag her family over to dinner at the Young's. It had been a pleasant dinner, her father and Callum's had chatted away like they were old school friends, whilst she made sure Poppy and Rory had eaten all their food. Callum had helped Demi occasionally but was mainly joining in with their father's conversation. When it was time to leave, Demi was knelt by the front door, zipping up Poppy's little jacket.

"There you are Pops" she said with a smile and kissed her head softly. Poppy giggled in response and ran out of Callum's house and over to theirs, to find Rory and their father. Demi stood up and slipped on her dolly shoes. Feeling Callum's arms wrap around her waist Demi smiled and spun around.

"Hello" she whispered softly with a shy smile. Callum grinned in response and proceeded to kiss Demi softly. After a few perfect seconds he pulled away and rested his forehead against hers.

"Want to stay for a bit?" he asked softly.

Demi was about to respond before she frowned. "I can't, i have group therapy tonight...I missed the last one, so i have to go...You can drive me there if you'd like to though?" she said, ending with a soft smile.

"I would love to drive you Dee.." he said and let go of her to grab his keys.

Demi sat in her normal space in the circle at group therapy. She always sat in this particular chair, as there was a girl with obsessive compulsive disorder in their group, who insisted everyone stay in the exact same place.

Cissy was chewing her juicy fruit chewing gum as usual and Antony still had a twitchy eye. James was sat beside Demi quietly fiddling with his house keys. Demi looked over to him and caught his eye and smiled. James had become a comfort of hers here. She felt a little less on edge when he was sat beside her. Demi guessed it was due to the fact he had bonded with her a few weeks back. He had pretty much told her, she had someone to help her, when she was ready to share her feelings and thoughts.

Today, Cissy was speaking. Again. Something about boys. Cissy liked the boys, or, well men. She was obsessed with them. Not your average, Taylor Lautner is so hot! obsessiveness. But a, the man at the bakery looked at me, he must love me, i'm going to stalk him and rip apart his family until he is mine..obsession. Truth be told, she scared Demi. The stories Demi had been told about Cissy by Jenna, the girl to her right, were frankly horrifying. According to Jenna, a pyromaniac, Cissy once pushed a pregnant woman down three flights of stairs to get her out of the way, so Cissy could 'have her husband'.

Demi raised her eyebrows to James as Cissy went into detail on her 'proudest' moment.

She'd made advances on an IT technician, who had refused, stupidly mentioning his girlfriend in the mix. Cissy had clocked on to the 'girlfriend' comment and concocted a plan. She found out where the girlfriend worked and then bombarded her at work. She played the perfect little victim. Crying and claiming the IT man had assaulted her. The girlfriend was naturally shocked but didn't question Cissy, only seeing her tears and not the flaws in her story. Cissy refused to tell anyone or press charges, but made sure her stunt had ripped apart the couple. After this she went to see the IT technician about a faulty printer in the science lab but came across him crying. She comforted him and in the end got what she wanted. The perfect crime. Until she was caught of course.
