Hidden

Part 8

Demi POV
I grabbed the package and opened it. I know I really shouldn't open other people's mail but I'm nosy so....like whatever. I was shocked by what I saw inside, a binder. I knew Sierra had ordered it but honestly I was shocked. I saw a text on my phone right as I heard her car pull up then pull away. "I'm gonna spend the night somewhere else tonight Dems I have money so don't worry about me but I will have my phone off" I sighed this was definitely all because I opened the package. I was upset at myself. I laid the binder in her room and walked slowly to my bedroom and slid into the large bed not even bothering to change. I binged watched movies until eventually at 3:00 AM I fell asleep after the 5th movie. Sleeping was horrible because all I did was worry about Sierra all night so I decided to text Dallas about it.

Demi: Dal? Sierra ordered a binder.

Dallas: And you opened their mail how nice of you

Dallas Lovato muted your chat

I sighed clearly she knew something I didn't about my little sister and she was also mad for some reason? I can't understand this woman half the time. She doesn't make sense to me. Then again neither has Sierra ever really so it makes sense they get along so well. I need a smoke honestly. I grabbed a joint and walked outside and began to smoke. I felt all the worry melt away instantly. It felt amazing honestly. I did this until it was burnt out. Good. I walked back inside and sat down after throwing away the outside. I simply just sat. I felt the effects of the joint where off after a while. Still I sat and waited for Sierra. Sitting and waiting for what seemed like multiple more hours finally I heard Batman bark signaling that there was a car coming. I assumed it was Sierra. When I heard the door open I looked up from my phone. Sierra stood there and I could see faint tears on her face. She set her stuff down and then came to sit with me. "Did you piece it together or do I have to explain" "Explain please Sierra" I said quickly she started to get panicky "No puedo esplicarlo, preguntale a Dallas" I shook my head and tried to make the situation more light  hearted "I didn't understand any of that" she shook her head and I saw a small smile sneak out of her mouth. "I can't explain it ask Dallas" I nodded at that and messaged Dallas after seeing that she had unmuted the chat. I messaged her

Demi: Hey Dall? Sierra won't expain why she bought a binder and just said to ask you.

Dallas: Alright then, so the day Si and you left for LA they were going to tell me something but stopped mid sentence. I texted them later about it and they ended up coming out. Their non-binary but said agender is also a fine label. They use Silas now with whoever knows fyi. That's it pretty much.

Demi:  Oh ok I'm happy for them. Thanks :) love you

Dallas: Love you too :)

I looked at Silas "Dallas told me. Hey Silas." they smiled so brightly at me and I realized it was the first time I had ever seen Silas smile that real in a very long time. The rest of the day went reaslly well honestly although I didn't see to much of Silas. I knew they were okay though because well really even though we weren't very far into this staying with me thing they had seemed so so much better. I'm starting to think maybe being at home in Texas was just to overwhelming for them and they just felt like they were being forgotten about all the time. I understood how that felt even if I hadn't been through it all. I immediately regretted jinxing it when I looked up. There was Silas, razor blade in hand blood dripping down their arm.
