Pattering down the stairs when she was called for later that evening, Demi came face to face with a slightly younger looking: curlier haired, neater eye browed version of Joe.
"Hello, you must be Demetria, nice to meet you I'm Nick" Nick stuck his hand out to shake Demi's.
"It's Demi, if you don't mind, unless you would prefer me to call you Nicholas?" she joked.
"Nope, nope, Demi will be fine" he joked back, "looks like we will get on pretty well, I have to go and set out dinner now, see you at the table Demi" Nick winked and walked off to finish preparing dinner.
A blush crept up the sides of Demi's face as the boy walked of, why was he causing this sort of effect on her just by a simple wink? That didn't usually happen did it? Memories from the past in LA rushed through her head and she couldn't remember a single event; not that shed gad much luck with boys back there mind you - she had her dad to blame for that.
A small giggle left her plump lips as she trailed along behind him to see if there was anything she could help with.

"So, Demi, what do you think of the place so far?" Denise attempted to start a conversation at the dining table.
"Well..it's different to LA that's for sure" Demi mumbled, "I love your home though" She finished with a bright smile.
A smile lit up Denise's face, "thank-you darling, I know it's not much but we call it home"
"No, no, it's perfect" Demi smiled back, before picking up her cutlery and finishing her meal.

"You certainly know how to make my mother happy" Joe commented, while in her bedroom later that evening.
Collapsing down on to the bed Demi turned to face Joe, "well there's a first tine for everything I suppose" she sighed.
"What's wrong" Joe worried, "missing your mum?" he guessed.
"Surprisingly, yes, I miss her yelling and complying, and it's only been a day"
"Don't worry, I know how you feel, A few years ago, me and my mum had this huge argument and I left home, I only managed two days before I came crawling back" Joe confessed.
Maybe they had more in common than Demi had first thought, "well, do you do appear to be a mummy's boy, it doesn't surprise me"
"If it wasn't true, I would so slap you right now" Joe joked, as he gazed in to her shining orbs, "You're so beautiful" he whispered, changing the atmosphere of the mood in a few seconds.
Looking back deep in to his chocolate pools, Demi felt herself involuntary leaning in to Joe, and just as there lips were about to meet, the bedroom door creaked open.
