Savanna POV

"Next...." I hear.

I look and see we're the last people in line for Demi Lovato's meet and greet. I had my friend Sarah's brother Jake to drop Aaron and I off. I don't even know why I wanna meet her. I just wanna see what she looks like in person... Her features... Mostly her face when and if she recognizes us.

Due to the closed adoption I never knew she was my mother... Until I found my birth certificate sitting around in my dad's office at home.

My house is nice for our family. Three bedrooms, two showers, a garage, kitchen, living room, laundry room, dining from, and an office for my dad. He's an agent. My mom works as a school teacher. Thankfully for second grade. Aaron and I are freshmans in high school. We just turned fourteen. Our freshman year hasn't started yet but is soon approaching which I why I wanna get this done and over with.

Throughout the past years I've had my struggles... Why? Cause my bitch of a mother passed down her struggles to me... Eating disorder... Bulimia... But most of all Bi-polar. I was never diagnosed professionally but it makes sense that I would be it.

I looked up to Demi as role model, until I found out she was the one who didn't want me or my brother... The one who gave us up the week after we were born. The one who went to Rehab and then never came back for us. She's touring for her seventh album...

She's never quit on what she loves... Something I used to admire her for. Now I see her as nothing more than a whore getting knocked up by some random guy and leaving her kids to complete strangers... Not anymore though. I have the most amazing family who loves me dearly... Which is why they'd kill me if they found out I was here.

I took my birthday money to buy these tickets for us to go to her show and meet her. Ever since Aaron found our he begged me so I made it his birthday present. While I'm here I mine as well meet her too.

Jake's in the car. He has no interest in seeing her so he said he's gonna take a nap and to bang on the windows when the concerts over...

Anyway... We walk in and she's standing there in black overalls with a white crop top underneath and a jacket hanging from her waist, her short hair just right below her ears hanging about her earrings.

"Hi." She says flashing a smile. I must admit, she's gorgeous... But I can never look at her the same way.

"What's your name?" She asks me. I can't even answer. I just stare at her.

"This is Savanna... And I'm... Aaron." Aaron says slowing trying to see if she knows who we are. Damn if she doesn't.

She stares back and forth at us and I look over at her mom... My grandmother with her hand over her mouth. I can't stand here and have them look at me like I have ten heads. I shake my head and walk out. "Savanna!" I hear Aaron call after me.

Demi POV

"What's your name?" I ask.

The girl just stares at me awkwardly. She's beautiful but I can tell she's hurting... Mostly by her wrist but her eyes too.

"This is Savanna." I cringe at the name.

My baby girl... Just a coincidence.

"And I'm... Aaron..."

Coincidence? No.

I don't know what to do... I'm in shock. I just stare back and forth at them.

I can tell the clocks are turning. Savanna turns around and leaves.

"Savanna!" Aaron says. I look at him and a tear escapes my eye. Last time I saw him he was attached to a bunch of tubes... Three pounds... I didn't even know he was Alive and now he's standing in front of me... Fourteen years later?

He looks at me and doesn't say anything before following her.

"Demi..." My mom says pulling on my overall strap.

I look at her and start crying...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"How do they even know about me?" I ask my mom wiping my eye with a tissue.

"Hell if I know..."

"She cuts herself mom. Did you see her wrists? Aaron's so tall. So handsome and Savannas beautiful..." I say crying some more.

My mom comes over and hugs me. At one point I'm mad at her... She's the one who made me give up my kids... But at the same time... I put it on myself from taking my addictions too far.

"Savanna hates me." I say. She shakes her head.

"No baby girl..." That's all she says.

Why can't she say anything else? Cause it's true.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The concert ends and I cancel my after show meet and greets. I get onto my bus and sit until I realize I forgot my phone backstage. I get out of my bus only to be greeted by my mom with Savanna and Aaron.
