This is a Nick Jonas and Demi Lovato (Nemi) story. It's mostly a survival story dealing with Demi. I started this before she went into the treatment center. I don't own any characters, just the story line.


Have you ever walked down a hallway and felt as if all eyes were on you? Did you ever think that whenever someone laughed, they were laughing at you? Yeah, well I feel this way all the time. No one has ever thought I was good enough. I have two people in my life that actually care about me. My boyfriend Joe and my best friend Nicole.

People seem to treat me different for one major reason, my weight. I'm not exactly skinny or whatever. It all started when I was younger, I just started gaining weight, and before I knew it I had reached the 200 pound mark. Wow, I know right? But even though I am this size, I decided that I didn't want it to slow me down from having the time of my life.

But of course, it has to be those people in the world who are always bringing you down. I cry almost every night because of what some people say to me. I never show myself being weak in front of them but it's hard to hide the pain that they give me.

Even though the name calling happens almost every day, I still manage to have a smile on my face. This is my last year of high school before I go off to college, I'll never have to see any of these people again. I'm thankful that Joe, Nicole, and I are all going to the same college. I don't know what I'd do without them. I don't even know how I was lucky enough to get Joe, I sigh thinking about him, the guy I'm in love with.

The dance is in 6 months, I want everything to be perfect. Walking down the hall to Joe and Nicole, I think of something. What if I changed something about myself? A trainer? That way everyone that has ever talked about me will feel stupid. They have no idea of what I've done to myself. Putting myself down, starving myself at times, mood swings, my hair falling out from stress and depression.

They ruined me. I am what I am because of how they all made me. I'll ask Nicole and Joe about the idea.

"Hey baby" I say kissing Joe, but he quickly stops me "Whoa Dems not in public"

I see Nicole roll her eyes as I feel that lump in my throat. I smile and laugh it off hugging him by his waist. He loves to joke around. "So Demi! What are you up to? Nicole asks grabbing me away from Joe.

"Oh nothing much, but I need to ask you and Joe about something"

Joe isn't really paying attention, instead he's biting his lip looking off in another direction, and yeah girls, but he loves me. I know he does, and I love him just as much.

"Yeah so I was thinking, since the dance is in a few months, maybe I could get a trainer who'd help me get into shape?"

Nicole laughed a bit "Demi are you crazy? You're beautiful the way you are!"

This is why I loved her, no matter what she would accept me for me; I think everyone needs a friend like that. Joe looked at me

"Well I wasn't going to say anything but you have put on a bit of weight"

So honest "Yeah, thanks Joe"

"No problem, baby, I have to go, bye" he said kissing me on the cheek; he smirked at Nicole which gave me a bad feeling.

"Demi, if you think this is best then I support you 100%, I'll love you no matter what size you are"

"Thank you, you have no idea as to how much I love you"

"Same goes for you Demi!"

She hugged me as the last bell of the day went off through the halls. I walked home alone, grabbing some items from the store on my way. If it's one thing I love it's the fact that I moved into my own home a few months ago. More freedom. I smiled jumping onto my bed with my cell and a phonebook in hand. I flipped through the pages, searching.
I let my fingers scan the pages landing on the name that caught my eye. Nick Jonas, I've seen his ads on TV. Maybe he can help me? He seems really into his job. Yeah, I think I'll call him. I punched in the numbers and waited for someone to pick up the phone. To my surprise I wasn't put on hold or anything.

"Nick J's LA Fitness, how may I help you?"

I have no idea why but I giggled at the sound of his voice and the way he said that.

"Hello?"

I quickly cleared my throat "Um yeah, I'm looking into a personal trainer, I was wondering if you were interested in taking the job?"

His voice was smooth and calm "Well for me to be your personal trainer would cost extra"

"No matter the price, will you do it?"

"Alright, what's your name?"

"Demetria"

"Pretty name, now let's say we meet tomorrow?"

"My house?"

"Well yes, for this to be personal, we must do it at your house"

I sighed and smiled "Fine"

Nick and I exchanged information for a few moments before hanging up the phone. I looked around my house; it was a bit of a mess. I quickly got up and started to clean everything up right away. Clothes and wrappers were everywhere. Going down to my kitchens, I took some of the snacks such as cookies and threw them out.

All of a sudden a feeling of embarrassment came over me, this man will be in my house, helping me get into shape. I don't know this feeling but like I'm scared to be around him, what if he laughs at me or something? Banging my head against my hands, I let a few tears fall.
