Demi's pov

Kissing Harry was like kissing sunshine. Fire works and fire works exploded the moment our lips touched. I wonder if he felt it too. I have never felt any thing like this before especially like when I kiss Joe. His kisses are lustful, Harry's are gentle, and over all amazing and that, the world around us just stopped. When we broke the kiss, I could not help but feel disappointed. When I heard someone clear his or her throat, I realized that

My fantasy of the world stopping the moment our lips touched did not happen. I looked to see Joe standing in the door jam looking angry. He simply said, " what the heck Demi?" I said, " Ummm. This isn't what it looks like." He rolled his eyes and said, " it is exactly what it looks like. You were kissing that man whore. I knew I couldn't trust you around them." oh my gosh. He said he could not trust me. I shook my head and said, " Couldn't trust me? You are the one who never answers his phone, acts like an ass to any of my other friends, and does not trust me. I put my faith and trust in you. I get that your working on MY album and that it takes time but you couldn't be bothered from what ever you were doing to answer a call from your girlfriend who was really sick and was asking you to call her in an hour to make sure that she hasn't got any sicker and was okay but I guess you could not do that now could you?" I heard Louis mumble under his breath, " burn." I winked and Louis and looked back and Joe who was only getting angrier. He shouted, " MAYBE I DIDN'T WANT TO TALK TO YOU. I CANT GET ANY WORK DONE WITH YOU CONSTANTLY CALLING ME. I HAVE NO FREEDOM. YOUR ALWAYS LIKE JOE GET ME THIS JOE GET ME THAT JOE. I AM SICK AND TIRED OF YOU TELLING ME TO DO STUFF FOR YOU. IF YOU GOT OFF YOUR FAT LAZY ASS AND STARTED TO SO SOMETHING THEN MAYBE YOU WOULD NOT BE SUCH A FAT ASS THEN. I CANT BELIEVE I EVER WANTED TO DATE SUCH A FAT, UGLY, WHINY, BITCH LIKE YOU. WE ARE DONE. DELETE MY NUMBER AND GET A DAM LIFE." I heard the boys all stand up and say, " that is no way to treat a lady. I do not know why she would ever date an arrogant arse like you. No freedom? She let you do what ever the heck you wanted and did not even bother you. She called you maybe three times asking you for one favor and you freak out. Demi is one of the most beautiful girls we have ever met, how dare you call her ugly! What the hell is your problem?" I decided that it was my time to say something, " me fat and lazy? Bitch please, who sits on his stupid phone all dam day doing who knows what? I do not make you do anything you want and I give you lots of freedom. Some nights you do not come home until three am only to leave at five again. I barely see you and or text/call you. I call you three times and you freak out? What is wrong with you? What happened to the guy I fell in love with? The guy who helped me save camp rock? The guy who looked for the mystery girl? You are acting like the jerk I met the first day of camp. What happened to my boy friend? The guy who would drop what he was doing and go out of his way to make sure that I was okay. What happened to the guy who waited for me when I was in the program? I lived for the day we would meet again and I could be in your arms and by your side. Turns out maybe I should have realized sooner that it was too good to be true. My only question is why? Why do everything for me without me even asking you too only to have you bitch about me not doing anything."

Joe rolled his eyes and said, " we are done. That's all I have to say. Good-bye. I never want to talk to you again." my heart shattered. I will not give him the satisfaction of seeing me cry; instead I smile and said, " Thank you. Have a nice life. I hope life does you good and you realize that you are making one of the biggest mistakes ever and that you can never turn back. Once you walk out that door, you burn the bridge and it will NEVER be able to be fixed. Walk out that door and you leave me for forever. Chose carefully." He walked out the door without a single pause. Then it hit me minutes later. He was really gone. I stared at the ground, not having the courage to look up. the room was silent. Niall held me in his arms as I cried into his shoulder. Harry hugged me from the other side as all the boys came together and engulfed me in a massive hug. I stopped crying not long later and said, " thank you. Thank you for standing up for me and not leaving." Louis said, " no offense but why would an amazing girl like you ever date a jerk like him?" I laughed and said, " believe it or not he wasn't always like that. He was a jerk when I met him but I apparently changed him into a nice guy. Apparently everyone was wrong. I knew he has been acting strange lately but I didn't know it would lead to this. I am so sorry you guys had to see that." all off the boys backed off except Harry. He held me and said, " I am glad we were here though. If we weren't then he probably would have been a lot meaner." I nodded and hugged him tighter. Liam said, " we are all here and we wont leave your side. It takes a lot to get rid of us." I laughed and hugged him. The doctor came in and said, " Your are free to go all you need to do is sign the release forms and have someone co-sign." I nodded as he handed me the forms. I just had finished signing my part of the forms when Harry took the clipboard out of my hands and start to fill it out. He finished a few minutes later and took the forms to the doctor. I took the opportunity to ask, " What is going to happen with Zayn?" Liam sighed and said, " he will most likely be put in rehab or something to get him the help he needs. I don't know what will happen to the tour or what but we will cross that bridge when we get there. right now we are going to help you." I smiled and said thanks. Harry returned not long after and handed me a bag of clothes and said, " I hope you don't mind wearing our clothes. We couldn't get you any of your clothes so we brought you some of ours." I nodded and opened the bag. There was a pair of sweats and a t-shirt and jacket. I excused my self and went to change. I put on the sweats and tightened them at my waist. They were really fuzzy and warm. The shirt was a white and a little bit baggy but it fit me well. The jacket was leather and really nice. It smelt like Harry. Hehe

I walked out of the bathroom to have all of the boys whistle at me. I blushed and thanked them for the clothes. Harry put his arm around my shoulder and Louis took the bag. Walking out of the room with the four boys by my side we walked to Zayn's room to let him know that we were going home and we would be back in the morning. We decided that we shouldn't let him know about my break up with Joe just yet but it will probably hit the media before we tell him so we ended up telling him. I pushed all of the boys out of the room and told Zayn my self. I told him that I wasn't letting Joe bring me down and I was staying strong. I also asked him if Niall and me could tell the boys what happened or at least part of it. He thought about it and decided that we could. We made the pact to stay as strong as we could for as long as we could. The moment we left the hospital, the paparazzi went crazy. Harry handed me a pair of sunglasses and led me to the car. We climbed into the large black SUV. Liam was driving to my apartment since he drove the best on the American roads. We got back to my flat and did our best to hide from the paparazzi. Niall and me discussed how we would tell the boys. He went first.

" Boys, I need to tell you about Zayn's cutting. Demi asked him if we could tell you his story and he reluctantly agreed. Please don't think any less of him or give him special treatment. He was in a very dark place and did what any normal person would do, panic." The boys looked at Niall and nodded for him to continue. He then said, " It started in high school. He was bullied very badly. At one point…. he committed suicide. He did actually die but was brought back. Leslie, and rehab helped get his life back on track. A year later, he tried out for the X-factor. He did very well for the longest time. His break up with Perrie and all the things that happened with that and the media was a lot for him to bare. I counted his cuts the day Demi was taken to the hospital. I counted then over a hundred and fifty. He has been cutting him self again since he broke up with Perrie. The other day, he took it to far." We let that information sink in then I continued the story, " he planned on telling you that afternoon. He planned on a few final cuts before getting his life together. After cutting to deep, he started to panic. He did not want to die; he only wanted his pain to be taken away. And you guys know the rest of the story. The reason that I am telling you this part is because I have something to say also." The boys nodded and let me continue. " So I know you guys are questioning my past so here is the truth: I haven't always been Demi Lovato. I was Mitchie Torres. A insecure sophomore in high school. I met Shane at the camp his family owns. Shane and me didn't quite get along at first. I had been singing in the mess hall when he heard my voice. I left before he could find out it was me. Long story short, we went out a year later. He returned from tour and things got serious. Several people from my school decided to bully me worse and worse. A year went by and I never heard from Shane. My dad died in a car accident then my mom. That's where life got really bad. Nate, Shane's band mate visited me for a while and saw what those girls did to me. Some stuff happened and then there was the fire. I was at school when my lab partner (the girl who bullied me) set our experiment on fire and got me trapped in the room. I was put in witness protection for three years and never saw or heard from Shane in that time, he then went by Joe. I was found once and the agent protecting me was murdered. His girl friend that was my other agent committed suicide not long before I was released from the program. She died from a broken heart. I then got my freedom and I found Joe. He and Caitlin helped get me my record deal. Then the rest you guys know." they nodded and Louis asked, " why would those girls be so mean to you?" I replied, " I had a voice and they didn't. They bullied me to the point that I… I started cutting. I continued to cut over the years and not once did any one ever know. You are the first to know and the second to be told. Zayn actually confronted me on it. I am trying to over come it but it is difficult. With everything that has happened, I don't know if I can't not give in to it. I think you guys deserved to know. After what happened to day, I don't know if I can stay strong like I promised Zayn. We are planning on going to rehab together that way we can support each other." I looked at the ground and didn't make eye contact. Niall had his hand on my shoulder and Harry had his arm around my waist. Liam placed his hand on my knee and Louis kneeled in front of me. They all said, " we will stand by you and not let any thing happen to you. We will be strong when you are not. We are going to help you get through this." they then engulfed me in a group hug and we all stayed like that for several minutes.

Harry was the last to let go and I must say, I don't think I wanted him to. Louis walked off into the kitchen and returned not long after with a cup of tea and placed it in front of me. Liam went through the box of movies that I have and picked out two movies, the first one being tangled and the second one being princess and the frog. He went into my kitchen and hunted down some popcorn and candy. Harry and me moved some furniture around and built a giant raft of blankets from my room. We then turned off the lights and sat down in front of the TV and waited for Liam to return with the goodies. We watched each movie and had fun. At one point Louis and Harry decided to reenact Tangled and Princess and the frog. It was actually quite funny. Harry played the princes and Louis played the princess. It was a priceless moment. I laughed a lot tonight and it felt great to do so. I felt so free and happy like the world was not watching for the brief hours we were inside. We stayed up after the movies and played several games. Niall was the first to fall asleep then Louis and Harry. Liam and me drew on their faces. Niall had I heart food written on his forehead while Harry had I love Louis on his forehead and Louis had I heart Harry on his forehead. We fell asleep after almost waking them up.

I woke up to the sound of the boys shouting at each other. Harry was laughing at them until he realized that he had writing on his face. His smile turned into a look of horror. I held in my laugh when he looked in the mirror and then squealed. I then cracked up which led them to realize that I was awake. Harry then somehow carefully jumped on me and laid on top of me. I made an oomph sound and laughed. Harry gave me one of his gorgeous cheeky smiles and said, " morning beautiful." I blushed slightly and said, " thank you kind sir. Good morning to you too." Louis then whined and said, " what about me?" we all cracked up and said, " morning Louis." Harry left and Niall sat down. Niall and me talked about what it is like in Ireland while Harry and Liam made breakfast. He described the town he grew up in and what it is like. He got a bit homesick so I gave him a hug and I snuck into my secret stash of chocolate and handed him a piece. Breakfast was eventful and very fun. Liam had Harry stay with me while they went to their hotel to get some clothes for them selves and then maybe go to the beach. I changed into a pair of shorts that went down mid thigh and a navy blue and green-checkered flannel shirt. I finished my out fit off with a pair of white low tops just like Harry's. Hehe we are sort of matching. I put on some chunky bracelets and placed my hair in a messy bun. I went light on my make up before checking my self out in the mirror. I poked at my stomach and looked at it in the mirror. Am I fat like Joe said I was? Harry walked into the room after I had been staring at the mirror for five minutes. He tapped my shoulder, which brought me out of my trance. He looked me in the eye and said, "don't let what he said make you think any less of your self. Your beautiful and everything that he wishes he will have. You are an amazing girl with an extra-amazing heart." he held my hand and kissed it. I then said to him, " thank you. When we kissed…. did you feel the… sparks or like fireworks?" I heard Harry mumble thank goodness and said, " yes. I was hoping I wasn't the only one who felt that. I have never felt anything like it ever. It was amazing. You're amazing."

I leaned in and kissed him, this time we were not interrupted. The sparks grew and grew and it got intense. It was truly awesome. We finally parted when our bodies decided we desperately needed oxygen. I smiled at him and kissed him again. We parted again and sat down on the bed. I asked him, " What are we?" He replied, " I don't know. I like you too much to lose you. If I have to wait for you I will. I would wait a thousand years just to call you mine." I smiled and said, " I at least need a month or two. I just got out of a relationship even though it wasn't really a relationship and I don't want you to be a rebound. I care to much about you and I don't wont the media bashing either of us." He nodded and I held his hand. He said, "okay. I don't want them harassing you either. I will wait however long you want me too." I smiled again and said, " Lets just keep things the way they are for now. So can we kiss and it not be awkward? Like how you just randomly kiss Louis? Haha. Please?" he smiled and said, " yeah. I like kissing you. Kissing you makes me feel more alive. I feel like I am now finally living." We kissed again and again until we heard the boy's barge in the door. I smiled and walked out of my room and into the living room. Louis saw me and said, " what did you two do?" I blushed and laughed and said, " We kissed that's it. Get your head out of the gutter!" he then turned pink and laughed. I reached for Harry's hand and held it tightly in mine and said, " we aren't dating yet since I just broke up with Joe yesterday but give it a bit of time and we will be." Louis and Niall high fived and said "finally". Liam shook his head.

Harry changed into an outfit that was similar to mine. He came out of the bathroom and smiled. The plan was to visit Zayn then go to the beach. We got to the hospital around 11 and sat with Zayn until twelve. We laughed a lot and had fun until Harry, Louis and me went to the beach. Niall and Liam wanted to stay a bit longer with Zayn. I drove them to the pier and we got out.
