Demi's POV
"Have a pleasant night Demetria"
"Thanks John," I say to the door man giggling at his posh phrasing and the calling me 'Demetria'. I pull out my phone and open messages, I select the name 'Jennyy' before checking the time; 2:17pm.
Demi: hey, I'll be there in 10, meet me in the lobby, I'll be wearing my black bowler hat and a red flannel around my waste. Look out for me I'm gonna be inconspicuous af! Hahah xx
Jennel: okay I'll be in my crazy tight skinny jeans ;) and a BLUE flannel! twins hehehe xx
I don't bother replying. I quickly tweet out #X as part of this campaign I'm apart of to stop texting while driving, and get behind the wheel of my my matt-black Merc. I turn on the radio and my ears are permeated with a familiar voice,
"If I was a man I'd make my move,
If I was a blade I'd shave you smooth
If I was a judge I'd break the law!
And if I was from Paris
If I was from Paris
I would say
Ooh la la la la la la la,
Ooh la la la la la la."
Its Jennel's voice
After the most popular acts performances are aired on TV they always release that song for that years XFactor soundtrack and iTunes, Jennel was asked to record hers almost as soon as she got off stage. Along well as Jillian Jensen and Lauren Jauregui.
I'm jamming out to the song not caring about the dirty looks from people who see me singing at the top of my lungs at every redlight, stop sign and junction. Jennel's voice is crazy good! That's when it hit me. If people found out that anything had gone down between us it could potentially ruin any chances of the music career. She deserves this and I don't want to be responsible for being the reason she doesn't get the life she deserves.
I pull of to the Maybeché and hand my keys to the guy at the valet. And walk into the hotel lobby. My wandering eyes instantly land on Jennel Garcia. She was not kidding about those skinny jeans. She spots me and come's closer to me, she says hi and I nod but I wait until we're out of the building before replying.
"Hi jenn," I kiss her on the cheek trying to contain my previous feelings of doubt between me and Jennel ever having a relationship. If you can even call this that; a relationship.
"Hey dems, where's your car?" She asks me with that voice that sounds just like heaven, her long wavy hair with a yellow underside blowing away from her face in the light wind. This girl is so beautiful!
"I thought we could go on a little walk first." I finish planting a light kiss on her cheek. She grabs my hand in hers and intertwines our fingers as a grasp hold of her tighter.
"I'd love to," she says smiling to me.
That's when I know. I'd love to too.
Because I love her.
We've been walking under the moonlight for about 10 minutes. Not to anywhere special, we just walked. We came up to a fountain, it had bright whitey-blue lights gleaming up from the under the surface of the water, some being covered my quarters and pennies from previous passers-by clutching onto their superstition and wishing for a little good look.
"Have you got any change, I wan't to make a wish," she says with a childish grin on her face.
"You know it's all crap right?" I giggle at her as she pouts and pull out two dimes and hand one to her. I watch as she closes her eyes and throws the coin into the wishing fountain. I do the same as she turns to me and asks me what I wished for. "If I tell you it wont come true."
"Excuse me, who's the one who said, and I quote, you know it's all crap right?" She has a smug look on her face.
"you believe in it," I say as she grabs my hands.
"Mine already came true," she lightly kisses my cheek before asking again, "what did you wish for?"
I pull my hands away from hers and I sit on the concrete ledge of the fountain
"I wished that I didn't have to do what I'm about to do."
"And what is it that you're about to do?" She weakly asks, giving no effort to cover her concern.
"We have to stop whatever it is that we're doing together."
"Demi what? Why would you-"
"Because I don't want to be the one who ruins your career!" Tears are streaming from her eyes and I can feel my eyes welling also. "Jennel, if anyone found out about us you would be kicked off of the show and I would never be able to live with myself!"
"Demi I don't care, I would go to the producer myself and quit if it meant I could be with you."
"Jennel don't do this,"
"Do what Demi? Love you? Because I do and I don't care who knows it!"
"Jennel," It comes out in a whisper, I can't breathe for the tears pouring down my cheeks. "I love you too. Which is why I'm doing this. I just think it should stop until the show's over, then if you still feel the same about me as I do and will about you then we can get back together. And we don't have to keep it a secret anymore.
She wiped the tears away from her own eyes and composes herself.
"Demetria Devonne Lovato. I love you and I really don't want you to do this, but I will always be here waiting for you." She grabs my shoulders and pulls me closer to her before leaving a soft kiss on my lips.
That's when everything went wrong
"Jennel!?"
"Demi!?"
"Oh my god!"
It was CeCe Frey, Lauren Jauregui and Camila Cabello.
