SIMON P.O.V.: we stayed in an uncomfortable silence for some minutes.

Simon: hey umm, what do you want to do?

Demi: well, we could watch a movie?

Simon: you like that, huh? I remember we were always watching movies in my dressing room just because you liked it

Demi: yes and it was an amazing time for both of us so shut up (we laughed and I nodded) wich movie?

Simon: what about Casablanca?

Demi: you have to be kidding me

Simon: I'm not, I like that movie

Demi: oh please (she laughed and then stopped)

Simon: what?

Demi: there's one movie I've been wanting like to watch but I'm just scared of what would that do to me

Simon: we can watch it

Demi: I don't know, I'm afraid

Simon: come on, we're together, nothing will happen to you (she nodded and searched for the movie) which is it?

Demi: To The Bone (she pressed "play" and the movie started)

Simon: what is it about?

Demi: she's anorexic (I understood why was she afraid. She went through all that one day)

The movie started and everything was fine, I mean, for me it was. Sometimes I turned ny head to check if she was okay and she was. At least she was until some girl had a miscarriage because of her issues. I looked at Demi during that scene and saw a tear rolled down her cheek.

Simon: is everything okay?

Demi: yeah, yeah...don't worry

I nodded and we continue watching the movie. Everything was fine until almost the end when the girl dies for some minutes and see a lot of hard things and before that part, the part when her mom talks with her. It was a very hard to watch movie, I admit it...a lot harder for someone like Demi. I looked at her and she looked at me with teary eyes.

Simon: is everything okay? (She tried to smile but failed and started crying out loud. I paused the movie and got closer to her to hold her tightly) it's okay darling, I know it's hard but you're okay now

Demi: I'm sorry (she whispered hugging me even tighter)

Simon: don't be, I'm here for you...it's okay, you are safe (I caressed her head slowly as she cried)

Demi is this kind of person that you feel comfortable hugging and being around, I could talk to her for a full day and I don't think I'll ever get bored or annoyed. And plus, her hair smells like strawberry.

Demi: I'm sorry (she let go of me and looked in my eyes) this is just so hard for me cause I've been there and I know how horrible it feels to have everyone worried about you and not knowing what else to do...her mom reminds me a lot of mine and her sister too...sorry I just feel a horrible person, I made everyone unhappy
