Y/N'S POV
Today's the day. Today's the day Demi's gonna perform her latest song for the first time live. I feel really proud of her as this is one of the hardest decisions she's ever made. This song means so much to her and she's decided that today's the day for her to open up her struggles, live.

[time skip lmfao]
Demi's performing stone cold now. 2 songs later will be her song. HER song. The song that means A LOT to her.

[time skip, again lol]
"Good luck Dem!" I planted a kiss on her lips as she walked on stage with a smile.

She took a seat in front of the piano on stage. "So... the song I'm gonna perform now means a lot to me. This song is actually my apology to all of you... uhm... this is Sober." As she started playing the piano, I rushed to the side stage to see her. As she sensed me by the side stage, she looked me in the eyes and smiled while I returned it sweetly.

I got no excuses
For all of these goodbyes
Call me when it's over
'Cause I'm dying inside
Wake me when the shakes are gone
And the cold sweats disappear
Call me when it's over
And myself has reappeared

As she finished her first verse, she looked up at me for the second time as I nodded, encouraging her to continue.

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why
I do it every, every, every time
It's only when I'm lonely
Sometimes I just wanna cave
And I don't wanna fight
I try and I try and I try and I try and I try
Just hold me, I'm lonely
Momma, I'm so sorry, I'm not sober anymore
And daddy, please forgive me for the drinks spilled on the floor
To the ones who never left me
We've been down this road before
I'm so sorry, I'm not sober anymore

Every word was sung with emotion and coming from her heart.

I'm sorry to my future love
For the man that left my bed
For making love the way I saved for you inside my head
And I'm sorry for the fans I lost
Who watched me fall again
I wanna be a role model
But I'm only human

As she sung about her fans, her voice started cracking and was on the verge of crying, I know how much she loves her fans and didn't want to loose any of them, even though true ones will stay and support her all the way.

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know why
I do it every, every, every time
It's only when I'm lonely
Sometimes I just wanna cave
And I don't wanna fight
I try and I try and I try and I try and I try
Just hold me, I'm lonely
Momma, I'm so sorry I'm not sober anymore
And daddy, please forgive me for the drinks spilled on the floor
To the ones who never left me
We've been down this road before
I'm so sorry, I'm not sober anymore
I'm not sober anymore
I'm sorry that I'm here again
I promise I'll get help
It wasn't my intention
I'm sorry to myself

With one last note, she broke down. As the lights on the stage dimmed, I stared at Kelsey as she yelled at me to go. As Demi saw me, I immediately ran towards the center of the stage, embracing her tightly. "I'm so so so proud of you Dem, you didn't say goodbye but that OK, you did it!" tears started flowing down my face as I refused to release the hug.
