Torn

Chapter 51

Demi's POV

I felt Annie's hand tighten its grip around mine as I walked with her up to my moms house. She's so nervous about mending things with Madison, even if she's the one that didn't do anything wrong.

I opened the door and led her to the kitchen were I see Mom making coffee and Dallas sitting at the table.

"Good morning, guys!" Mom said, rushing over and giving Annie and I hugs.

Next, Dallas ran over and hugged Annie tight and carried her all the way back to the table and sat her down next to herself.

"How are you guys?" Mom asked.

"Good!" I said, taking a cup of coffee from my mom.

"It's just now 10:30, I'm surprised you got her out of bed!" Mom joked, referring to Annie.

I laughed, "Actually.."

"She woke me up at five this morning!" Annie said.

My moms jaw practically hit the floor. "What?! Why?! How?!"

I laughed and said, "I wanted to her to exercise with me at Runyon Cannon."

"Woah!" Dallas said before taking another bite. "I'm shocked."

"Me too." I agreed, sipping on my coffee.

"Did you guys already eat?" Mom asked.

I nodded, "Yeah."

I glanced over at Dallas who had Annie half on- half off her lap as she ate her breakfast and it kinda made me jealous. I want to cuddle with her all day.

"Where's Madison?" I asked.

"Probably in her room." She sighed. She then looked at Annie. "Thank you for coming over here to talk... She hasn't been herself lately. She know she messed up big time and her mistake is eating her alive."

If it's eating her alive, she should've been the first one to say something. She probably was just scared, but still.

Okay, I need to go talk to Wilmer. It takes about fifteen minutes to get to his house, so I should leave now.

"Oh, hey, Demi." Mom said, "Tonight- family dinner? Me, you, Annie, Wilmer, Dallas, Madison, Eddie, and Marissa."

"Yeah, that should be fine." I smiled.

I love how everyone has basically accepted Marissa into our family. In Texas, she didn't see or hear from her own family as much as she'd like. My family shown her more attention and love than them, so basically we talked her into moving to LA and ever sense she's been apart of every Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, etc.

I walked over to Annie and kissed her on the forehead, "I'll see you in an a little bit, okay? Love you, baby girl."

"Love you too." She said, smiling.

"Bye guys, love you." I told Mom and Dallas.

"Bye, love you!" They both said.

I poured the remaining coffee in a to go cup thing, then I left the house. Hopefully all goes well with Madison and Annie. As of now, I have my own problems to solve.

Dammit! I should've stopped by the house to get clothes for Annie to change into. Oh well, she can walk down and get them later. One of the perks of living down the street from my
Mom in the same subdivision.

I slipped in the drivers seat and started my car.. Here goes nothing.

I wonder if Wilmer will be upset or angry. Maybe we will get in another fight, but hopefully we'll make up on the spot.
