Holding Onto You

Ch. 41

Demi's pov

I hear my alarm go off and I quickly roll onto my side and turn off the alarm, "What's that about?" Wilmer asks groggily.

"Breakfast alarm. I need to get up and make breakfast so that I can make sure Maya eats. Her doctors talked with me about her food restricting even in the hospital. So I can't just let breakfast slide." I say.

"You didn't mention this to me." He says more alert.

"Last week, yes I did. I told you that they talked to me about how little Maya was eating was a bit worried, but Maya said it was the pain medication and they said it could effect appetite but I really needed to watch how much she eats more closely."

"I don't remember having this conversation."

I get out of the bed and shrug, "I had it with you and they said nothing more than I can't let her skip meals and to monitor how much she eats more closely." I say.

I walk to the kitchen and open the freezer and grab a couple of waffles. I drop them into the toaster and walk to the fridge and get some strawberries and put them on the plate. I then get a banana and slice it before putting it on the plate by the strawberries.

I walk to the cabinet where the cups are and grab a cup and fill it with some ice water just as the waffles pop up. I grab them and put them on the plate before walking upstairs with it, and the water, to Maya's room.

I open the door to see her wide away on her phone, "I need you to go ahead and eat Maya." I say.

"I figured." She mumbles.

I pass her the plate and set the glass of water on the nightstand. I look at Bailey beside her still sleeping, "I think your dad will make breakfast for everyone else a bit later. If bailey is hungry she can eat with everyone else. Let her know that when she wakes up." I say.

"I will, you're going to watch me eat aren't you?" She asks.

"I am."

"Well while you're in here, I guess I can ask you a few things." She says.

I walk to her desk and pull the chair out before sitting and looking at her, "You could, yes. What do you need to ask me?" I ask.

"So Bailey and I were watching glee in the hospital right?" She asks.

"I guess, I wasn't aware you were watching glee." I say.

I don't know where this conversation is about to go, but I don't think it's going where I think it is. I highly doubt they watched any scenes I was in. Maya and Ava have never been to into watching anything I was apart of because 'it's weird' for them.

"So uh we watched all of it because well, I didn't know you did glee." She says and I nod still not sure where this is going.

"So I happened to watch your scenes and that was indeed weird. But it had me thinking of a time frame here. So glee is filmed in advance, I mean like all tv shows are. However your self titled album was recorded in advance too. So you recorded that and put that out before Glee aired. Really Don't Care was done at LA pride. But I remember you saying in an interview that Cool For The Summer is how you came out which you didn't think you would, but did. So like did they not know you did glee either? Because I mean you didn't play a straight character. My brain is hurting trying to figure this out." She says.

"I don't think they knew I did glee, I don't tell your grandparents everything I did after I turned 18. Really Don't Care was filmed at LA pride, yes. However, they didn't think much of it. When I put out Cool For The Summer, they called me to ask about the song and I didn't tell them over the phone. That's not a conversation you do over the phone. So I told them in person then." I say.
