An eighteen year old brunette pulled her hood up to shield her face as she arrived in Los Angeles Airport. She looked cautiously around, for any paparazzi and after realising the coast was clear pulled out her cell phone to call the girl that had always been there for her, despite their recent differences. There was no one that she was excited to see more and surprise with her secret return back home than her best friend of more than ten years. Without Further ado, Demi Lovato dialled the number of Selena Gomez, a large smile spreading across her face.
She took a deep breath as the voice of the girl she had been in love with for all these years came across the phone, sounding confused.
"Demi? How did you get a hold of your cell phone? I thought you weren't allowed it in treatment. That's why I had to keep the phoning the centres reception." Demi let out a relieved laugh.
"Selena, come to Los Angeles airport please." She requested.
"What? Demi? Are You...?" Demi could hear the hope creeping into Selena's voice.
"I'm back home Lena. I'm back home." Demi's voice quivered as she held the tears of relief back at the sound of Selena's delighted shriek coming across the phone's speaker.
"I'm on my way right now Demi! Oh My Gosh! I can't believe you are home!" After bidding farewell to Selena, Demi settled onto one of the airport couches, anxious to see her best friend again.
Selena turned up half an hour later, launching herself on Demi and hugging her tightly. The two friends headed towards Selena's car with their arms wrapped tightly around each other. They stayed in silence for the first part of the car journey before Selena asked in a quiet voice.
"So, do you want me to drop you home or shall we head to mine?"
"Yours Lena. I need to talk to you in private. Those phone calls in treatment just weren't enough. I just want to spend time with my best friend." Selena smiled softly and leaned across to kiss her cheek at the stop light. "My place it is then."
The car pulled into the driveway of Selena's house not long later. Clearly Selena's house was empty as her parents cars were no where to be seen. They ran into the house and collapsed on the couch in a fit of giggles. For both girls a lot of memories resided in this house. The first time Demi visited Selena in Los Angeles. The time Demi found out she had booked Camp Rock. All those hours practising for The Princess Protection Programme roles. That very first kiss between the two best friends...
"Demi..." Selena took a deep breath. "Before we talk, you need to know I broke up with Justin. I couldn't live a lie anymore. I don't know if its too soon to be telling you this after your treatment but... you're the one for me Demi. " Demi snuggled further into her best friends side and took a deep breath.
"It is not too soon Lena. You are it for me as well. No matter what anyone says. Disney, our friends, our family. I love you Selena." A bright smile worked its way across Demi and Selena's faces. Slowly Demi leaned towards her friend and kissed her lightly. The two girls sighed peacefully and leant further back into the couch. No matter what they would face. No matter what they would battle. They were together again. Demi and Selena. Best friends since childhood. In love for the rest of their lives.
