Selena: Demi, I like you more than I should...
Demi: You... what?
Selena: Ever since 5th grade I've had this crush on you that I thought would go away, but it never went away and... I just...
Demi: *looks away* I like you too Selena, but this... can't happen.
Selena: Why not?
Demi: *looks back at Selena* Don't you see? We're in high school, people here care less about you until you have a major secret that they figure out. If the people here knew about our secret, we'd be severely bullied.
Selena: Let's hide it then. When we're alone we can act like a couple and when we're around people, we can pretend that we're just friends.
Demi: Okay, but what if people find out?
Selena: I'm not quite sure, but let's just deal with that when it happens.
Demi: *smiles* I'm glad you're mine.
Selena: *smiles back* And I'm glad that you're mine.
A WEEK LATER
Nick: Sel, you haven't been around a lot lately, you've missed soccer matches, and that's just not like you.
Selena: I know Nick, I'm really sorry, I've just been... busy.
Nick: There's something you're not telling me Selena and I plan to find out what it is.
Selena: Good luck with that.
Nick: Anyways, we're playing soccer at the park later today, do you want to come or are you too "busy"?
Selena: I have plans already, I'm sorry.
Nick: With who?! Who are you spending all your time with? For the past week you've been occupied by this person and we would love too know who it is.
Selena: Listen, I can't tell you yet, but when the time comes, I promise you will know.
LATER THAT EVENING
Demi: Hey Sel.
Selena: Demi, my friends are getting suspicious. I don't think I can keep lying to them.
Demi: Do you think they'll be able to accept the truth?
Selena: I'm pretty sure. I don't see why they wouldn't.
Demi: You know... I'm talking about Joe.
Selena: He might have a problem... but you never know Demi, we're pretty close.
Demi: I'm just worried, I don't want it getting around the school.
Selena: I get you, but these are my friends we're talking about.
Demi: I guess you're right.
Selena: So I can tell them tomorrow?
Demi: I guess so.
THE NEXT MORNING
Nick: Selena, this is getting ridiculous. Where are you always going?
Selena: It's a secret. Do you really wanna know?
Nick: YES!
Selena: SHH. *whispers in his ear* I'm dating Demi Lovato.
Nick: YOU'RE WHAT?!
Selena: Nick shut up, you heard me. You knew this was going to happen one day.
Nick: Yeah, but not with Demi! Most of the school hates her.
Selena: She's really sweet Nick. She's... she's the love of my life.
Nick: How do you know so soon?
Selena: I've known her since kindergarten Nick.
Nick: True.
Suddenly Selena's phone rings...
