Do I Worry To Much?

Demi's P.O.V.

5 Weeks Later.

I walked into the arena, with Candice Tegan and Dakota. I've been sharing a room with all of them, since Chris isnt here with me. They are great and all but, I've been missing Chris a little bit more. We've been texting when I'm not busy but we haven't called much, maybe around 3 times. I haven't had much time anyways but I still worry about him a lot.

All four of us were in our hotel, drinking and eating snacks. It's been awhile since we all hung out.

"Demi what's wrong? You've been off all day and I'm a little worried." Candice asked

"What do you mean guys? I'm fine..." I reply

"Girl, I know your not ok. Is it about Chris?" Dakota asked

"I honestly dont know. Theres been a lot going on for me lately. Actually, a lot has been going on for all of us."

"Seriously though, we are killing it." Tegan replied

I smiled, enjoying this time with my girls. I've know them for awhile but it's a little weird being away from Chris. I've been by his side for the last 3 months, it's different not being by him.

*Phone ringing*

"Shit, I'm gonna take this real quick." I say walking outside "Hello."

"I'm so happy to hear your voice."

Chris

"Oh my....I haven't heard your voice for 2 weeks..." I say

"What's up babe? How've you been?" Chris asked

"I've been good. Theres a lot going on right now."

"Oh yeah? That's great that you have things to do."

"I know it's just really stressful at the moment."

"I have good news for you."

"What is it?"

"I'm cleared..."

"Wait really...Chris this is great."

"Yeah I know. I'm happy to come back, well and to see you."

"I wanna see you.."

"Well your in luck."

"What do you mean by that?"

"I'll be in town tomorrow after my plane lands. Maybe we could meet up at a coffee shop or something?"

"Yeah we should, I haven't seen you in a month. The girls will understand."

"They should, there good people. Well I'll let you go for tonight. Dont get too hammered tonight babe. I love you."

"I love you too."

"Alright goodnight Demi."

I placed my phone in my pocket, walking back into the hotel room. The girls, completely hammered, lay together on the bed, laughing. They were wasted but they had there fun for tonight. I went over to the left side of the bed and climbed in. 5 minutes in and I drifted off to sleep.

The Next Morning
Demi's Off Day

I awoke in the bed, the girls still passed out next to me. The clock read 7:30 am, fuck my life. I lay my head back in the pillow, trying to go back to sleep. When that didnt work, I just got up and went outside.

I took my phone out, dialing my best friend Becky's number.

"Hello?" She asked

"Hi..." I said

"Ah Demi it's been forever. How are you?"

"I'm kinda...well I dont know how I feel love."

"Oh Demi what's going on? Do you have a man that I dont know about?"

"Well...yeah I do Becks."

"Whoo? Tell me.."

"Ok ok...its Chris Denton."

"Really? I haven't met him yet. So what's wrong?"

"I'm worried about him. It's been rough without him, he got hurt but I couldn't take a break to help him recover."

"I'm sure he has no hard feelings towards you. You worry too much lass."

Do I worry too much? It's a question that I sime how cant figure out myself. Honestly everyone that I know has told me this. I guess there right, I do worry too much.

"Thanks Becks, I know I shouldn't worry but it's very difficult sometimes. I just feel bad that I can wrestle and have fun while hes home alone."

"Its like that with Colby. I worry but deep down, I know he can handle himself. Well I'll let you go, call me later."

"Ok.."
