It's been a week since iv'e gotten released from the hospital. Most of the dizziness was gone, but it still lingered. When I was at the hospital, once a day a psychiatrist would come into my room and try to get me to talk about my life. I never said anything. She had said that I would start feeling better mentally, but that wasn't happening. Iv'e been cutting secretly everyday now. I haven't told Demi, and I don't plan to. I don't want to bother her, and cutting is my only escape.
"Hey, hey Alex! Anyone in there?" Demi poked my forehead gently and I snapped out of my trance.
"Which outfit should I wear for my interview today?"
Demi held up a pair of dark skinny jeans, a white tanktop and a black leather jacket, and a white knee length dress with a black belt and a black leather jacket.
"I personally think you should wear the tank-top outfit, but whatever you want."
"Tank-top outfit it is!" Demi said as she went to the bathroom to change. I looked around Demi's room and sat on her bed. Demi came out of the bathroom in her new outfit, and she looked stunning. Her hair was perfect too. She sat at her vanity mirror and started doing her makeup.
"What time is it Alex?" Demi asked while doing her eyeliner.
I glanced at my phone. "10 o'clock"
"Oh shit we gotta go were gonna be late!" Demi said while grabbing her makeup bag and shoes.
"Am I coming?" I asked while jumping off the bed.
"Of course you are! Come on lets go!" Demi said as she grabbed a pair of black combat boots. We ran down that stairs and out the door. I only had on a sweatshirt but it wasn't too cold. We hopped into the car and drove off. I was thrown back against the seat as Demi sped up.
"Geez Dem don't kill us!" I said as I held onto the seat.
"Sorry but we have to go!" Demi said frantically.
A few minutes later we pulled in to a tv studio. I got out of the car and stopped dead in my tracks. Above the door. it said 'ellen'.
"Oh my god you're going on Ellen?!" I said in awe.
"Ya come on lets go!" Demi said as she took my hand as we ran inside.
"Demi you're late!" Said a man with a headset as he ran toward us. I tensed up. I didn't know this guy, and he might hurt me. I scooted behind Demi a little as he got closer.
"Sorry!" Demi said as he ushered us into a room. I almost stopped as I saw Ellen herself standing still while someone did her makeup.
"Hey Demi! Glad you could make it!" She said while walking toward us.
"Thanks for having me!" Demi said as she hugged Ellen. I looked down as my anxiety rose. I always got nervous around people.
"Is this Alex?" Ellen asked as she extended her hand toward me.
"Yup!" Demi said as I hesitantly shook Ellens hand.
"Ok, we should get out there! We go on in four!" Said the guy with the headset. I followed everyone into a room right next to the room that was going to be filmed.
"You can sit right here! I know it looks like it's gonna be in the view of the camera, but it wont. Just don't go past this line." Ellen said as she pointed to a line of black tape on the floor. I sat down on the black couch that Ellen pointed too.
"Ok Dem, you know when to come out right?"
Demi nodded and Ellen went to sit in her chair, the show was about the start. The cameras started rolling, and Ellen said her intro, cueing Demi to walk out. Demi gave me a small wave before she went to go sit with Ellen. I watched as Ellen started asking Demi questions.
"How are you doing? Are you less busy now that your album has been released?"
"I'm doing good! And I am a little less busy since my album has been released, so it"s nice to have downtime. I'm looking forward to start my world tour though!" Demi said with a smile.
"And I've heard youv'e adopted a daughter?"
"Yes, I have! I get lonely a lot, and I thought I was ready! Her name is Alex."
"How did you choose her? Did you guys immeadietly click?"
"Ya, I talked to other kids at the orphanage, but none of them clicked with me like Alex did."
Ellen asked Demi more questions, and then they started to play a giant game of jenga.
I laughed as Demi tripped and stumbled into the giant structure, causing it to topple.
Soon, the show was over and Demi came back into the room where I was waiting.
"How was that?" Demi said with a giant grin on her face
"It was good! Besides the fact that you almost face planted.." I said with a smirk.
"I'm gonna get you!" Demi shouted as she lunged toward me. I yelped and ran out of the room, and into a hallway. I heard Demi running behind me. I turned the corner and ran down a flight of stairs. I had absolutely no idea where I was. I turned another corner after running down the stairs and started running down a hallway. My knees buckled and I stumbled and fell. My head clouded with dizziness and I was getting chest pains. I guess my heart is still not strong.
"Alex..you...ok?" Demi said inbetween breaths as she lifted me up.
"Yup...i'm...i'm fine." I said as i tried to catch my breath.
Demi started tickling me and I tried to squirm away, but Demi was holding onto my too tight.
"This is for your little remark about me falling!" Demi said playfully.
I screeched with laughter and begged Demi to stop, which she finally did.
"Lets go! Get on my back, I wanna give you a piggy back ride!"
"No, I'll crush you."
"No you won't your lighter than a feather!" Demi said as she slung me onto her back. She ran up the stairs.
"Faster horsey! Yeehaw!" I said as I pretending to wave a cowboy hat in the air.
"Demi giggled as we burst through the doors and into the parking lot. She ran to the car and dropped me into my seat. I buckled up as Demi pulled away from the studio.
"But seriously, did I look weird or say weird things?"
I looked at Demi. "Ya, you did fine! Just next time, try not to fall.." I said with a grin.
"You're never gonna let me live that down are you?" Demi said as she playfully punched my arm.
"Nope!"
