I was happy to see that Selena listened to me and made up with Justin. I saw the old happy Selena slowly coming back. I couldn't help but smile at the sight. "Isn't watching them a bit stalkerish?" I heard Joe say coming up behind me and wrapping his arms around my waist.

"I don't know what you're talking about." I said turning away from them and facing Joe, wrapping my arms around his neck and hugging him.

He pressed our foreheads together. "Remember when we were as in love as they were?" Joe whispered to me.

"Back in the day when I wasn't so screwed up in the head." I chuckled sarcastically.

"You are not screwed up in the head or anywhere else. You're perfect." I closed my eyes and smiled. "We can be that happy again." Joe suddenly said making my eyes fly back open.

"Joe-"

He interrupted me. "Can you look me in the eyes and tell me you don't have any feelings for me anymore?" I shook my head. "I don't just want to be with you because I think that's the only way you'll be happy again. I meant it when I told you I loved you."

A single tear rolled down my cheek. I smiled. "I love you too, Joe."

Joe crashed our lips together and everything felt right in the world. In this moment I wasn't depressed anymore. I was Joe's and that was all that mattered.

"Are you two back together?" We heard Justin shout, causing us to break away from our kiss and laugh.

"Yeah man!" Joe shouted back.

"It's about time!"

I moved my arms from around Joe's neck to around his waist and squeezed him tightly.

It's now been four months since I've cut myself. I feel much happier than I have in a long while. I knew Selena was doing better as well and it was as if she had never tried to kill herself. Slowly Selena and I were around each other more and more due to the fact that Joe and Justin have now become best friends. We even joked about how they were going to leave us to be with each other.

It was Saturday and I was still sleeping soundly, warm and cozy in my bed until I suddenly felt a body bouncing on my bed. I groaned and tried to push whoever it was off. "Hey!" Joe said. "Don't push me!"

I reluctantly opened my eyes and glared at Joe. "You shouldn't have woken me up!" I complained. "I'm tired!"

He rolled his eyes. "You're always tired! Besides, it's almost noon and I'm bored."

"Did my mom let you in?"

"Nope. Madison did." Joe grinned.

Note to self, kill Madison. "I don't want to get up yet, Joe. It's Saturday for God sake!" I rolled over and closed my eyes again, determined to go back to sleep. Joe crawled under the covers with me and pulled me to his body so we were spooning.

"I'm sorry I woke you up. Forgive me?" Joe mumbled into my neck.

I turned so I was now facing him. I smiled. "Of course I forgive you. I can't stay mad at you."

He kissed the top of my head. "Good."

"So, where are you dragging me off to today?"

"Well…" He looked guilty. "Justin wanted to go on a double date."

"Ugh." I groaned. "You already said yes didn't you?"

"I love you." He smiled nervously. I groaned again. "Oh come on. You and Selena have been getting along just fine lately."

"I don't want to push my luck." I complained. "Can't you just tell them I'm sick or something? Why can't you and Justin just do something without us?"

"We're just going to see a movie. You don't even have to talk to her and you can sit next to me and away from them." Joe begged. I stayed silent and just stared at him. "Please?"

"Fine!" I caved in.

"You're the best!" He cheered.

"I know." I joked. "Now get out so I can get ready."

"Aw, but I just got comfortable." Joe said snuggling closer to me.

I pushed him off of me. "I don't care. I was comfortable until you woke me up so now we'll be even."

"You're mean when you first wake up." Joe pouted.

"You already knew this." I giggled.

He pecked my cheek. "I know and I love you anyways."

Joe finally left and I started to get ready for what could be a disastrous night.

We walked through the front doors of the theater and were instantly met with Justin and Selena. "Hey bro!" Justin said before hugging Joe and I.

"Hey Justin." Joe smiled.

I stayed silent, avoiding Selena's eyes on me.

"Hi Demi." Justin said poking my stomach, causing me to let out a small giggle.

"Stop it, Justin!" I laughed, trying to push him off of me.

"Just say hi back and I will!"

He was evil. "Okay, okay! Hi!"

He grinned, satisfied. "Was that so hard?" He wrapped his arm around Selena.

I rolled my eyes dramatically. "Yes! It was!" I joked. I felt Joe wrap his arms around my waist and pulled my back to his chest, resting his chin in the crook of my neck. "Well hello there." I laughed looking at him.

"I was getting jealous of all the attention you were giving Justin." Joe muttered into my neck, ticking me causing me to giggle again.

"Now you know how I feel when you and Justin are all over each other!" I said wiggling out of his grip but intertwining our fingers.

"Let's just go see this movie." Joe sighed dramatically, dragging me over to where the movie was playing.

Watching the movie wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Selena and I didn't speak, but I occasionally felt her eyes on me, which I always shook off. Justin tired to convince us to get something to eat after the movie but I refused.

"Oh come on, Dems! It won't be as much fun without you there." Justin pouted.

"You'll still have Joe!" I protested.

"What? I thought I was your ride home?" Joe asked confused.

"I'll just have my mom pick me up or something."

"No, I want to stay with you." Joe insisted.

"You two are so cute!" Justin squealed. "How about we just take a rain check on dinner for another time? Sel and I can always use some alone time." He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

She smacked his arm playfully. "You two can go off and be adorable while I'm killing Justin." She giggled.

Joe hugged Selena and then Justin."Alright. See you guys later." He grabbed my hand and we left. "Was that so bad?" He asked when we got into the car.

I sighed. "No, I guess not. I was worried over nothing."

"I love you, Demi."

I looked up and smiled at him. "I love you, Joe."

He kissed my head and started the car.

Selena and I never "officially" made up but we managed to become something like friends again. Selena and Justin did in fact end up getting married. They were a very cute couple. Joe and I ended up breaking up later but I was forever grateful for him pulling me out of the darkness I was once trapped in. Seeing that happiness is always possible has kept me out. I'm stronger than I ever have been before.
