Chapter 6: Confession pt 1
Though Selena knew that she finally wanted to tell Demi how she felt she knew she had to do it at just the right time. Demi still didn't know Selena had overheard her and Dallas' conversation so Selena planned to act like she didn't hear the conversation and continue on as normal while trying to figure out exactly how to tell Demi how she felt. It was just after they had reached their 5th day in Puerto Rico Selena had decided that she would tell her that day, because lord help her if she had to go through one more day with seeing Demi in a bikini while they were at the beach and not being able to do a single thing about it. They were heading to a club just a few blocks away and she had hoped that she would have an opportunity to say something while they were there or if she was lucky enough she'd get a chance before they left.
"Okay, so what time are we heading out tonight?" Selena asked as they walked around one of the malls in San Juan. Later that night the girls were going to head out to the Cantina Night club just a few blocks away from their hotel. Selena had been the one to suggest the outing and Demi was quick to agree once she found out dancing and music was involved.
"Probably 8:30,9ish, I don't want to go too early." Demi replied looking through the racks of dresses. Finally after searching the rack Demi found something that she really seemed to like.
"Hey, what do you think of this one?" Demi asked grabbing a little black dress that instantly showed that it would show off the wearer's curves perfectly.
"I like it." Selena replied with a smile.
"You should try it on."
"Okay, I'll be right back." Demi said handing Selena her purse to hold onto while she went into the change room. A few minutes later Demi emerged from the change room, and as Selena predicted the dress hugged her curves perfectly.
"What you think?" Demi asked.
I think that dress would be better on the floor of our hotel room.
"It looks amazing." Selena replied.
"You should totally get it."
With Selena's approval Demi decided to get the dress and after helping Selena find a new outfit (simple skinny jeans, white tee and black vest) for their outing that night the girls made their way back to the hotel to make sure they had enough time to eat and get ready to go. Making their way through the lobby Selena caught a glimpse of the music room off to the side of the lobby, and as it always did when she passed that room since they got there one particular memory played back in her mind, one from when she and Demi were there filming Princess Protection Program and Demi had called her into the room saying she had something to tell her.
Flashback-March 2008
"Hey, you wanted me to meet you here?" Selena asked opening the door to the hotel's music room .Demi, who had been preoccupied by the piano in the corner of the room, didn't hear Selena come in, jumped at the sound of the older girl's voice.
"Umm..yeah. I wrote a new song earlier and I wanted to know what you thought of it." Demi replied, now full of nerves just thinking about how Selena was going to react to the song she had just finished writing.
"I kinda wrote it for me and you." Demi admitted, making Selena smile.
She was giving the world
So much that she couldn't see
And she needed someone
To show her who she could be
And she tried
To survive
Wearing her heart on her sleeve
And I needed you to believe
You had your dreams I had mine
You had your fears I was fine
You showed me what I couldn't find
When two different worlds collide
La da da da da
By this point Selena was smiling ear to ear, which made most of Demi's nerves go away, and all she focused on was the song.
she was scared of it all
Watching from far away
She was given a role
Never knew just when to play
And she tried
To survive
Living her life on her own
Always afraid of the thrown
But you've given me strength to find hope
You had your dreams I had mine
You had your fears I was fine
You showed me what I couldn't find
When two different worlds collide
She was scared
Unprepared
Lost in the dark
Falling apart
I can survive
With you by my side
Were gunna be alright
This is what happens when two worlds collide.
You had your dreams I had mine
You had your fears I was fine
You showed me what I couldn't find
When two different worlds collide
La da da da da
You had your dreams I had mine
You had your fears I was fine
You showed me what I couldn't find
When two different worlds collide
When two different worlds, collide
There was a brief moment of silence as Demi stopped playing, both girls not really sure what to say.
"What you think?" Demi asked
"I loved it!" Selena replied giving Demi a hug. Seeing this as her best opportunity, Demi took a quick breath and released Selena from their hug.
"Sel...I need to tell you something.
*End flashback*
After playing Two Worlds Collide for her for the first time Demi asked Selena out, which Selena happily said yes to. Of course the relationship started out as a secret between the two since they weren't completely sure how their parents and friends would react but when the time came that they did tell them they were fully supportive and happy for them. But the happiness only lasted so long before work got in the way, forcing the girls apart more than they wanted to, and that put a huge strain on the girl's relationship which eventually led to their nasty breakup. The girls went to the hotel restaurant for dinner and after quickly finishing they raced back up to their room to get ready.
"Lena, can I use your straightener?" Demi asked from the bathroom.
"Sure. Wait..where's yours?" Selena asked.
"In my suitcase..." Demi replied.
"Why don't you just get it?" Selena asked playfully rolling her eyes.
"Cause yours is already in here." Demi replied, sticking her head out the bathroom door and offering Selena a huge smile. Selena just let out a laugh and continued getting herself ready to head out. Once Demi was done straightening her hair it was around 8:45, perfect timing for the girls to head out. Heading out into the streets of San Juan the girls talked amongst themselves as they made their way over to the Cantina, mostly talking about their memories of Puerto Rico or mentioning inside jokes to get the other laughing. The girls arrived at the Cantina just a little bit after nine and by then there were already quite a few people already crowding the dance floor.
"Come on Sel, let's go dance!" Demi said as a new song began to play.
"You go ahead; I'm just gunna grab an iced tea from the concession." Selena replied. Demi quickly nodded showing Selena that she heard her over the music and headed off to the dance floor.
You're so hypnotizing
Could you be the devil?
Could you be an angel?
Your touch
Magnetizing
Physical imploding
Leaves my body glowing
As Demi danced around happily a tall blonde girl came to join her on the dance floor. With a smile Demi joined the girl and the two began dancing through fits of giggles. Selena waited for her drink and saw the girl who had joined Demi since she had left.
You idiot, that girls trying to hit on your woman!
"Miss, your drink." The concession manager said, breaking Selena's concentration on Demi and the blonde long enough to grab her drink. Downing her iced tea as quickly as she could Selena finished her drink and made her way back to Demi and the un-known blonde, more than ready to fight for her woman.
They say be afraid
You're not like the others
Futuristic lover
Different DNA
They don't understand you
You're from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go, lead me into the light
"What's your name?" Demi asked the blonde over the loud music.
"Emily. Yours?" the girl asked.
"Uh..." Demi stammered. She wanted to tell the girl her real name but at the same time she knew that that could have a dangerous result, and she promised Selena a paparazzi free vacation which was a promise she intended to keep.
"Hey, who's this?" Selena asked, giving the girl across from her an ice cold glare.
"I'm Emily." Emily just barely managed to get out. Emily could feel the jealously radiating from Selena and decided that it would be best for her to leave.
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your posion
Take me, t-t-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
You're-you're an alien
Your touch so far out
It's supernatural
Extra-terrestrial
"I'm gunna go now..." Emily mumbled before quickly making her exit. Demi knew that there was something up with Selena, she could feel the vibes from her the second she came back from the concession. Not really thinking of a rational way to ask Demi just spit out her words before she even really thought of them.
"Lena, what the hell was that for?" Demi asked, noticing Selena's change in attitude once Emily came into the picture.
Your so supersonic
Wanna feel your power
Stun me with your laser
Your kiss is cosmic
Every move is magic
You're from a whole nother world
A different dimension
You opened my eyes
Now I'm ready to go lead me into the light
As the girls eyes connected they became entranced in their own mind conversation, wondering who was going to make the first move. Finally Selena realized that this might be her only opportunity to show her feelings so without much thinking (if any at all) she was the first to step forward, connecting her lips with Demi's without any warning.
Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your posion
Their lips melded together almost instantly, fitting together as if they were two perfectly matching puzzle pieces the second they connected. Soon their lips were fighting in a battle of dominance, neither girl even aware that anyone else was there.
Take me, t-t-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction
You're-you're an alien
Your touch so far out
As Selena broke the kiss her feeling of relief from finally expressing her feelings quickly turned to one of panic as she noticed the shocked look on Demi's face. What was she even thinking? She obviously heard Demi wrong while she was talking to Dallas, there was no way Demi could ever like like her, and it didn't even feel like she had tried to kiss back. Once her rational thinking had returned Selena knew what she had to do now, before things got worse.
It's supernatural
Extra-terrestrial
So she ran, barely acknowledging Demi calling out to her as she ran as fast as her feet could carry her out of the building.
Hey y'all, sorry again, I just started a new job last week and that took command for a little bit and it probably will for the next month or so, but worry not, I get three days straight where I don't work at all so hopefully on one of those day's I'll be able to update :)
R&R!
