Well I'm back for the 4th chapter, and thanks for the reviews, as of this writing, there's now 5 reviews, and one comment brought a chuckle to my heart:

this is an amazing story so far! daniel's so cute! update sooooon(: -xlyssx23

Thanks xlyssx23 for that comment! I had him inspired by Davis Cleaveland, who plays CeCe's little brother in Shake It Up. So now rumors start flying against Demi, and Daniel is still doing the best he can to make things better. How far would he go? Read on…

Demi

I was getting worried that Daniel, at a fragile age, could get to the bad side of things. I have to do something so that he won't get in trouble or do much damage.

He was sweet, innocent, and what if those who hate me get a hold of him? They could turn the tide and make him a bad person! If I can get out right now and tell him everything, I could, but no. I'm still stuck here.

"Hun, well I brought you a few things because I don't want you to miss us so much. Here, even Madison brought you a come home card."

"Maddie made me this? I don't know if I can accept it…"

"Why?"

"Because I don't Maddie to see me like this, I don't want her to cry and be sad or anything, I just can't do it."

But I then remembered one of Daniel's letters, as if they came to life and tell me to take it. After all, Madison is my little sister, and she has to grow up strong like I'm now in. I can't let her down…

As I opened the card, a drawn picture of me was there, and a note.

Demi,

I miss you. I wish you're now ok so we can spend time together.

Please come home,

Maddie

I cried again and my mom said, "Ok Hun I have to go now, I don't want your sister to be worried. I'll come back in another day, ok?"

I can't say anything. I was still sobbing from the card Madison gave me.

As I went back to my room, I started to write a new letter for Daniel, because I got worried for him. I just don't want him to lose hope and stuff…

Daniel

For the entire weekend I spent playing with my friends and Abby actually invited me to come over their place. Her dad recently bought the Blu-Ray of Ramona and Beezus, and that's what we watched for Saturday.

Abby asked me, "Hey I heard that Demi Lovato wrote to you. Was it great?"

"Well I can say it's a blessing, and not something to be happy. If it was someone else, they'd boast it all together, and showcase it to the others. Not me."

"I wish that she'll be alright. After all, she'll make it through right Daniel?"

"I believe with God, Demi will make it. I just know she'll make it!"

Or so I thought, because later on I might get a bigger serving of hate from the haters. After all, as a certain Comic book quote said so, "With great Power comes great Responsibility." The Great Power being Me writing letters to Demi to make her feel well, the Great Responsibility being that when I'm doing this, I have to be strong at all times.

That evening both my family and Abby's spent a dinner at my home. We had a great dinner which consisted of white cream pasta, roasted Chicken (the way my mom does) and more. Mr. Curran told my parents of what I've done for Demi and my parents understood that I had to do it for her welfare.

That evening after the dinner was over Mr. Curran gave me something and told me, "Daniel, I want you to have this little thing because I know it'll help her be happy." He just handed me a Macross Frontier Fighter Display Vol 1 VF-25F. I knew what I was going to do: send her this item with the letter. But how?

"Just consider it a little something that Abby sent for her. You know how excited my daughter is when you send this little thing that you can bring her."

I thanked Mr. Curran and after they left later on, I decided to go to the supermarket on my own. As I went to the Magazine to read some teen celeb mags, I noticed one magazine that caught my eye, because it was just lying in the floor with some pages open. But that wasn't any page. It was something that dreaded me…

DEMI'S DOWNFALL: IT WAS DRUGS

As I read the entire article, I felt like I was going to rip the mag to pieces but I controlled myself. Then I wondered, who would write a liar's article like this? As I looked at the title of the mag, it was Life and Style.

As I silently put the mag back, and went home, I immediately went inside my room and cried because I knew people went too far to do an article of a lie. How could they do something as horrible as this?

That Monday I felt like I didn't want to talk to anyone that day, except for Abby, because she was my best friend. After school, as we're about to go home, a group of kids then stopped us. It was Walther, one of the kids who don't care so much to goody-two-shoes kids like me and Abby.

"Hey Gerson, you still thinking about being 'Prince Charming' for a Teen celeb whom you can never save?"

"Cut it out! I don't know what you're talking about!"

Walther, like I said, didn't care; he just want to boss around some kids. Abby however, stood up for me.

"Walther, can you knock it off? He's having a difficult time, and you'll just pick on him?"

"Oh now you're being serious Abby? Why don't you tell your 'celeb's imaginary pet' that he princess he's trying to defend is taking so much drugs that he can't even do something!"

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY WALTHER?"

"Let me repeat it for your little prince: Demi. Takes. Drugs!"

I was so fuming mad and I shouted at him, "SHUT UP WALTHER! SHE CAN NEVER DO THAT! SHE'S JUST HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME THAT'S ALL!"

"So you read it didn't you? It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out after all. Yet you just ignore the harsh truth that is in you- she lost control of herself. You can't do anything anymore!"

As he laughed, I finally lost my temper and shouted, "SHUT UP!" And I punched him and he was scared of what I did. So scared he ran away. Abby asked, "Daniel… what was that?"

"Abby, I don't know ok?"

"I'll take you home."

As I got home I noticed a new letter from Demi. Don't tell me she knew it too…

Dear Daniel,

Thanks for the letter you sent me; I didn't know you have a teacher who also cares for me. Well I have some bad news- while I'm stuck in Rehab, bad rumors started coming out one of the other when my real dad spoke in defense of me. These ranged from me making illegal drugs to being pregnant to someone else; thus why I have to warn you in advance, that you don't end up with those who are out to ruin me. Daniel, promise me you won't be like them. Because I trust you like a little brother I don't have. I know you'll not go to the dark side. I hope you'll be ok right now… I don't want you to get hurt and stuff. You're the only one along with my little sister Madison that still believes in me. I can't afford to lose you…

Still believing,

Demi

I cried as I read her letter because I knew how cruel the world was to her more than ever. As I write my reply letter I started off little. Because it went like:

Dear Demi,

I'll always be by your side, but I have bad news too. Looks like a classmate of mine knew it too. But worst, I found out-

I felt like I didn't want to continue the letter because I don't want to hurt her more just because I read that lie of an article that even Walther knew.

With no one to turn to, I prayed to the Lord for help.

Daniel knew this day was coming, but how they cope up now that bad rumors started flying around? Will Demi and Daniel trust in each other more than ever?

For those wondering what the article was, I found the post in Tumblr, and it was a clipping from the magazine Life and Style. Keep bringing up the comments!
