Chapter 4: I'll Miss You Forever, Dad

So, remember in the last chapter when Demi's mom said that her dad's funeral was the next day? Yeah, it'll be soon in this chapter. I think this one will make you cry. Thanks for the awesome reviews, guys! You're awesome! P.S. you might expect some bad words…so yeah.

Demi's P.O.V

Now this isn't fair. My dad died. I don't know how the fuck he died. I don't know how. My mother doesn't want to tell me. Kendall is such an awesome friend. He's always there to help. Always. Now…also my sister won't tell me. Why? I'm way older than her and she knows. My mom knows. She knows. What about me? I'm invisible. I hate that. I don't deserve to live. Not in a case.

I felt Kendall rub my back softly. I continued to rest my head in his chest.

"Demi…" Kendall whispered.

"Y-Yeah?"

"Do you know how your father died?"

I looked up and a tear fell down my cheek. Why was he asking that question? Why was he asking it if he probably already knows the answer?

"N-No.." I sniffed "Do you?"

Kendall sighed. He looked around and then he starred into my eyes.

"Yes…I do Demi"

"How did he died?" I asked

"He died in a car accident"

I again buried my head in his chest and started crying. Oh dad, why didn't you stay? I don't get to see you every day. Only once a week. How I miss you…

"Wanna go outside?" Kendall offered

"Yeah…that'd be great. Maybe it'll clear my mind off things"

He stood up and helped me up. We both walked downstairs and I looked back at my sister. She was still crying. She was thrown in the couch crying her eyes out.

"Mom! Kendall and I are going for a walk!" I screamed at my mother to inform her

"Okay, sweetie! Be careful!"

Kendall opened the door for me and headed outside. I was walking looking down, so no paparazzi or fan could recognize me. Believe it or not, I wasn't in the mood for fans.

Kendall pulled me into a hug as we walked. He held me by the waist and I buried my head in his shoulder as we walked. He's so nice. No guy has ever done this before for me.

We headed to the park and we sat in the edge of the fountain, like we did the other day. He starred at me and looked into my eyes.

"So, when's the funeral?"

"Probably in the afternoon…"

"Me, James, Logan and Carlos will be there"

He smiled. His smile made me melt big time. His green eyes made me fall mad in love with him every time I saw him.

"You will? You do know you have to give a speech, right?"

"Yes, we know. James, Logan and me have it prepared. Carlos is working on it"

"Oh, that's…nice"

I looked around the clear blue sky. As I looked at the entrance of the park, I could see a guy running toward us. His hair moved back and forth because it was long. James.

"Kendall!"

Kendall looked toward James. James approached to us panting…he seemed to be tired.

"James? How did you know I was here?"

"Dude! That doesn't matter!" He stopped and looked at me. I looked down "I'm sorry Demi"

He pulled me into a hug and I hugged him tight. He pulled off and looked at me in the eyes.

"I'm really sorry about your loss"

"It's okay…"

He looked at Kendall and then at me.

My phone rang. It was my mom.

"Hello, mom?"

Tears fell down my cheek once again. The funeral was in 10 minutes. I hung up and looked at the guys.

"Guys…take me home. I need to get ready for the funeral"

"I have my car, so let's go" James said

We all got in the car and headed home. As James pulled into the driveway, I got out of the car and into the house.

I went to my bedroom to get ready. In about 10 minutes or so, I was ready.

I got out of the house and saw Kendall, James, Logan and Carlos outside. They were already ready. Kendall looked at me and his mouth opened wide. I smiled a little and walked towards them.

"Let's go guys. My mom and sister are already in the funeral"

We all got into the car and we got there in time. I went inside the room my dad was in. I saw him in his coffin and tears fell down my cheek. Kendall hugged me from the back. I turned around and hugged him tight. He rubbed my back and whispered into my ear "Don't cry, Demi. Don't cry"

In a minute or so, a guy with a tuxedo made everyone sit down and he started talking.

"Now, we're gonna take a few minutes to say some words to Eddie DeLaGarza. Stepfather of Demetria Devonne Lovato Hart, Maddie Lovato and Dallas Lovato. First, Demetria"

I stood up and headed to the podium. I looked at everyone and started talking.

"My stepfather, was the most amazing stepfather you could ever imagine of having. In fact, I don't call him my stepfather. I call him my dad. Cause he's like a dad to me. He's made us see that anything is possible. That you can't give up on anything. He's the one that made everything possible from the beginning. Without him, I wouldn't be here. He's the best father I've had. I now know that he's in a better place and that he's watching over me, but I can't get him off my mind. I once wrote this song called "For The Love Of A Daughter" for him. I wrote that song to show him that I love him. To show him my appreciation. To thank him for everything he has done for me. And now that is gone, I won't be able to sing it for him. Also, I didn't always get the chance to see him every night. Not like some of you do, only every once in a while. And now, he's gone. I'll love you forever dad. Thank you for everything"

I walked to my chair and started crying. I've said everything I wanted to say.

My sisters gave their speech and sat down next to mother.

"Alright. Kendall Schmidt. You're up"

Kendall stood up and headed to the podium. He had a paper in his hands and started reading it.

"I may not know Eddie DeLaGarza that much, but I assume that he was an amazing dad. Knowing Demi, I bet that Eddie was as talented as Demi. Always giving her and her sisters hope. Always showing love, always positive. In fact, I didn't even meet him. But I am sure that he was an amazing dad to Demi and her sisters. Eddie, may you rest in peace. God bless you"

Kendall finally said and returned to his seat.

James, Logan and Carlos said there speeches. After a few of my family members and friends said there speeches, the coffin was closed and lifted up and carried away.

I stood up and starting crying like never before. Kendall and the guys came to hug me. My sister and mom came to hug me also.

This was the end of it all. Goodbye dad, I'll miss you forever.
