The Story Of Alexandria Lovato 1

The Kiss

Demi's POV:

I am out in the hallway with the family and I hear screaming. It sounds like Alex's voice, but she's in a coma so it can't be her. I go into her hospital room and she is awake and with Camilla.

"I thought I heard your beautiful voice! I missed you!" I say to Alex. Even though I don't really care about her, I just drove her to suicide. I feel guilty and I want to do start our relationship fresh, but I don't know how to. But I'll try.

"Demetria." Alex says coldly.

Camilla looks at us awkwardly. "I need to go." Camilla says.

"Don't call me Demetria." I say, my eyes glinting dangerously.

"Why not? It's pretty much your fault for making me almost be dead!" Alex yells at me. I feel bad and I want to cry. I just want a new relationship. How hard is that?

By the monster inside of me takes over. "You're just asking for it today, aren't you?" I growl at Alex.

She ignores what I said and says, "So I heard Selena is here. Can I see her?"

I sigh, but I open her door and yell out of it, "Selena, the invalid has awoken and requires your presence." I giggle, which eventually turns into my famous, loud laugh.

"Coming, milady!" Selena replies, laughing almost as loud as I am. She comes into the open door.

"Selly!" Alex squeals, jumping out of her hospital bed and running into Selena's open arms. "I haven't seen you in forever!"

I wish she would do that with me. Have a cute nickname and give me a hug whenever she saw that. I guess I have our relationship goals now. I go out and close the door behind me because I can't take their relationship anymore.

I tell everyone that she is awake and talking to Selena, and that they can talk to her afterwards. A few minutes pass and Selena comes back in the hallway.

"Demi, come in here. It's important." Selena says.

I follow her and we go back into Alex's room and shut the door.

"Demi, Alex has something to tell you." Selena says.

Alex sighs and pulls her sleeve up. My mouth drops when I see all the cuts covering her arm. Some are fresh and some are old. Those are much, much worse than what I did when I was self harming.

Alex looks down ashamedly and says, "I'm sorry."

I am so guilty. I never thought that I would ever make someone cut. "Don't be sorry, Alex. If anyone should be sorry than it's me. I probably caused this."

Selena and I hug her. "If you ever feel the urges to self harm, call Demi or I and we will help you. Don't you worry." Selena says.

I agree. I will help Alex. She will be my baby girl. No that's Maddy. Hmmm, I have to think of a cute nickname for her. "Yeah, we'll be your support system." I say.

We just sit there, enjoying the silence. After about ten minutes, Alex falls asleep.

Selena says, "Alex also told me that she gets bullied at school, so don't blame it all on yourself."

"I won't." I say.

"Ok. We need to check her room for blades and we need to do a body check every few days just to make sure she is not cutting." Selena says. I'm not focusing on a word she's saying. I just watch her lips form the words and imagine how good kissing them would feel.

I lean forward and so does Selena. We kiss and it's soft, loving, and intoxicating. We pull away and Selena is smiling at me.

"I have had feelings for you since we were 14. I wanted to tell you but I was too scared you would think I was disgusting and I would ruin our friendship." Selena says.

"That is exactly how I felt!" I say. I get down on one knee. "Would you, Selena Gomez, do me the honor of becoming my girlfriend and accompanying me on a date?" I ask her, hopefully.

"Yes, my esteemed. I love you, Demi!" Selena says.

She grabs my hand and pulls me to my feet and we kiss passionately. "I love you too Selena." I whisper against her ear, making her shiver.

"Together forever?" Selena asks.

"Together forever." I confirm.
