EDITED
Nick's Pov-
"Demi turn around!" I shout as her as we get on an express back to L.A.
"I can't I'm on an expressway, and U-turns are illegal." She sneers.
"Well, you drive at an illegal speed limit, so why not take a U-turn" I chuckle. Demi keeps a stern face. I roll my eyes. "You left a 16 year old on the street in the middle of the ghetto. Turn around." I state.
"Not like she l-loves m-m-me" Demi stutters as she continues to drive further away.
"Demi she has IED" (intermittent explosive disorder) I yell at her.
Demi's facial expression turns into a caring one. "Since when?" She chokes.
"Since rehab. Haven't you seen her take her medication?" I reply very confused.
"Shit no." Demi mutters taking an exit down, and going back the way we went on side streets.
I take my phone out and text Paige.
Nick😎: hey we're coming to get you.
Paige💅: didn't you just pick me up?
Nick😎: UH..no. Where r u?
Paige💅: Ik you didn't lol someone else picked me up.
Nick😎: what who????
Paige💅: doesn't matter I'll probably have Demi mess up her days clean and sobriety again. But I'll see you on Demi's birthday!
Nick😎: Paige?!??
Paige💅: I'll be fine, I promise. See you soon!
"Why isn't she here?" Demi yells as she stops the car where we left Paige.
"Someone took her." I mutter.
"What?"
"I said someone took her!"
Demi is now sobbing into my shirt. "I'm so stupid Nick." She sobs louder and louder.
"Dems, I think Dallas picked her up.
Right away Demi pulls out her phone, and calls Dallas putting her on speaker.
"Hey!" Demi exclaims trying to sound happy.
"If you're calling for Paige she says she doesn't want to talk to you," Dallas states. I raise my eyebrow at Demi who facepalms herself.
"Is she okay?" Demi wonders. Silence. She's not okay.
"She says she's fine." Dallas answers.
"I'm coming now." Demi finally says hanging up the phone.
So we take the three hour drive to Dallas's San Diego home that she usually stays in until Demi's birthday. When we reach there, Paige is sitting on the front porch sobbing. Demi rushes out of the car but Paige looks up, and screams.
"Get away from me. I might hurt you!" Paige shouts in fear.
"Is it because you'll hurt my days clean? Or how much I drink?" Demi questions quietly yet calmly.
Paige nods her head as tears drips down her face. Demi then run towards Paige, and pull her into a hug. Paige grips onto Demi for her life, and bawls into her. I can feel my heart break as I watch this scene unfold.
Paige then rips her self from Demi. "No." She mutters. "No.no.no."
"What's wrong?" Demi wonders going to grab Paige's hand, but Paige backs up.
"I'm a burden. I'll hurt you. I already have." Paige cries. Demi shakes her head no, and walks slowly towards Paige.
Paige collapses on the ground while mumbling, "I'm not crazy. I swear. It's called IED. I'm not crazy. No. No. No. I'm a burden. Not crazy. No no I'm not."
Demi finally reaches Paige, and pulls her back into a reassuring hug causing her to yelp in heart ache. Dallas is now on the porch crying at her niece, I guess you would say mentally breaking down.
"Mom." Paige whimpers into Demi's shoulder.
"Yea babygirl." Demi murmurs rubbing Paige's back.
"I'm not crazy right? She wonders.
"No. Not at all honey." Demi reassures her.
"I..uh...relapsed"
