6 Months Later

Jalissa's POV:

I'm scared of trusting myself right now to do everything the right way. I take out my journal and start writing. I'm alone in the bathroom, in my new house. It is so clean with no stains from my blood. I want to keep it that way. My parents are out right now going grocery shopping, they trust me to be home alone so this is a big step. Just two months ago I was getting released from Timberline and they barely trusted me in my own room never mind being home alone. It feels weird being in LA. But these past few months with Demi has really opened my mind.

I get a text and stop writing to look at my phone and see a text from Demi saying: How are you doing?She has had my back since that first time she walked into the theater room. It's been six long months of recovery but I'm finally getting better. Right now she is doing judge's house for X Factor. To think I almost went on that show. I text back: Good home alone for the first time. I'm trusting myself to make the right decisions. Hbu?

I then start writing again. I am so greatful for everything she has done for me. She opened her home to me, showing me around town and teaching me how the "business" works. Especially since my parents had to finish and find new jobs. They don't even need to work but they would apparently feel guilty living off my fortune, which really doesn't make sence since they made me. Without the years of danceing, acting, singing, and piano lessons, I would definately not be where I am today.

Demi texts back: I'm so proud of you! You are so strong 3 a few moments later I'm doing pretty good, the last person is about to perform, call you when I get out, we'll get lunch! Haha gotta love that girl. I then get another text from my manager, Lisa. It says: I have two huge surprises to tell you. Call me ASAP! Lisa is cool I guess. She can be intense at times but it's whatever. She knows exactly what I want is more than happy and capable of helping me reach it. Right now I am working on my first album. Mostly recording since it was the songs I wrote while I was in rehab. It should be out in the next month. I also put out my first single a few weeks ago, apparently it went over REALLY WELL as in so well that IT WAS THE MOST REQUESTED SONG ON RYAN SECREST'S RADIO STATION! No big deal or anything.

I immediatly call Lisa. After a few rings, she picks up and says, "Hello this is Lisa Smith, how may I help you?"

I laugh saying, "I know you have caller ID. Now what is the surprise?"

"Well you should probably sit down first." I already was. "Are you sitting?"

I respond, "Yes! TELL ME!"

"Alright well... Who's your favorite Daytime talk show?"

I respond, "Well I don't really have one, but I do like Tyra."

"Well guess it's your lucky day because tomorrow your on it!"

I almost drop the phone, I let out a scream. I take a few breathes and say, "Thank you!"

"No problem sweetie, do you want to know the other news?"

"Well seeing that this day couldn't get any better but go ahead."

"Based on what you've told me already I don't know if you want your career going in this direction but Ryan Murphy called me this morning."

'Ryan Murphy is a major producer/writer/creator of television sitcoms, what would he want?' I think to myself. I respond, "And...?"

She pauses and says, "He wants you on Glee."

My heart drops a little. Glee has been my favorite show since its first season. This is a dream come true. I say, "Oh my god, are you serious!"

She says, "Dead. Now I need to know quickly before this window of oppurtunity closes. This could really help your acting career and get your voice out there, but you wouldn't be able to do the tour."

I respond, "Oh wow..." The tour was meaning everything to me right now. I was going to OPEN for Demi. That was such an oppurtunity but then again this was to.

Lisa goes on for a few minutes on how I need to think hard about this and that I need to talk to both my parents and Demi. She finishes with, "Alright well let me know by the morning."

I quickly respond, "Who's definition?" Both Lisa and I have totally different definitions of time. She think morning is 6am while I think morning is noon.

She laughs and says, "Just tell me by 10. I wish the best, if your parents have any questions tell them to call me. Love you, bye" I say love you back and hang up the phone.

This is going to be such a hard decision. I have wanted to be on Glee since I was just ten years old but then again my music career is a little more important right now. Oppurtunities like this only comes once in a life time while music will always be there. I then get a text from Demi saying: Done! And a few seconds later I get a phone call.
