Shattered Promises

twenty three.

**Trigger Warning in this chapter**

        Just as I predicted, I was being sent home under Demi's orders. No matter how many times Mom tried to ask Demi why she was so mad at me, she wouldn't answer. Instead she'd shake her head at her and tell that she'd tell her later. Mom and Eddie had told Demi a million times that I wasn't going to leave and that I was going to stay and then Demi would just freak out to the point where someone would have to actually tell her to calm down. She hates me. She probably hates me more than I hated her, but that's totally fine, I guess, I mean I hated her and blocked her out of my life for years. 

        I didn't want to have to deal with her anymore, so I said I wanted to leave. I told Mom that I'm going home. Why was I going to stay here when it's clear that I'm not wanted around?

        "Are you sure you don't want to stay?" Mom asked as we arrived at the airport. "Demi will get over whatever she's upset about, I'm sure."

        "I'm sure, Mom." She won't get over it. I fucked up big time. "Yeah, maybe she will."

        "You can stay, Dani. You and Madison can share a room instead of the three of you sharing one." 

        I'd love to stay, but Demi doesn't want me to. "It's fine, Mom, really. I have to get back to school anyway."

        She sighed and got out of the drivers side, along with the rest of the family exiting the car. We all slowly made our way into the airport where we were met with men with large black cameras and bright flashes. 

        "Jesus Christ," Demi mumbled to herself, hiding behind Sugar. "How do they always find me?"

        Mom had made Demi come to the airport with us, no matter how many times she refused, she ended up coming anyways. 

        We tried to ignore the screaming and flashing lights coming from the paparazzi, but they kept yelling louder and getting closer. Sugar had to ask them to back up and he politely asked them if we could be left alone. 

        I looked up at the screen that showed all the plane times and landing times for each plane and which plane is going to which city. My plane left in forty five minutes and it'd be a five hour long flight.

        "Have a safe flight, you two." Eddie said to Dallas and I, earning a smile from me. 

        Dallas was coming home with me because Mom didn't want me home alone, even though I'm sixteen and I'm completely capable of taking care of myself, she came anyways. She said she also had stuff to do but she'd make sure to come back. 

        "Thanks, Dad." Dallas smiled, pulling her our step dad into a tight hug, which lasted a couple seconds before he grabbed me into a tight embrace. 

        "Love you." I said looking up at him and shooting him a large smile. 

        As soon as I pulled away from Dad, I felt arms wrap tightly around me and gently lift me off the ground. 

        "You're leaving and I hate you for that." Maddie said, practically suffocating me by how hard she was hugging me. 

        "You could always come with me." I giggled, dropping my bags and wrapping my arms around my little sister. 

        "I would, but I love travelling." 

        "Well you need to come home eventually."

        "Yeah, I know, I will because I'll probably end up missing you."

        I giggled and pulled out of Maddie's grip.
