"Oh my god," Demi said, staring at her two best friends in shock.
"Demi, this is not what it looks like," Selena said, stepping away from Joe, who somehow passed out.
"Then what is it?" she asked as jealousy and hurt spread through her veins.
"Um," Selena looked at Joe, then took Demi's arm, leading her to another room. "Okay, so Joe's really drunk right now."
"Again?" Demi sighed.
Selena nodded. "And what just happened, I had no idea it was coming."
"Selena, you didn't pull away!" Demi argued. "You can't let Joe kiss you like that!"
Selena's mouth formed into a smirk. "Oh, so no one can kiss Joe?"
"Yes-I mean no! I mean..." Demi looked frustrated.
"Is somebody...jealous?"
"I'm not jealous! I have a boyfriend!"
"Right, okay." Selena shook her head. "And you know the agreement between your boyfriend and Joe?"
"What agreement?" Demi asked, confused.
"Have you noticed that Joe hasn't been associating with you as much?"
Demi nodded, "Yeah, why?"
"When he talked with Sterling, he agreed to stop talking to you so that you and Sterling could be happy."
"Why would he do that?"
"Because he loves you." Selena answered, looking at her best friend.
"No, Selena. He doesn't." Demi looked away.
"What can I do to show you I'm sorry?" Selena quote Joe's song. "He's been so sweet to you. You two are meant to be. If Sterling made Joe agree to stay away from you, that's not a really good boyfriend." Demi couldn't face her best friend, so they stood in silence, until Selena sang, "I am a lightweight better becareful what you say. with every word I'm blown away--"
"Selena!" Demi couldn't help but crack a smile, then sighed. "What am I supposed to do?"
"What does your heart tell you to do?"
"Sterling isn't the one for me, is he."
Demi looked at her best friend, who in reply looked in her in the eye and said, "Go find someone who makes you a lightweight, Demi. Not someone who controls who hangs around."
"Can I do this tomorrow? It's my birthday for crying out loud."
"Whatever you want," she smiled.
Demi sighed. "You're not making this easy for me."
"Make a promise please, you'll always be in reach just in case I need you there when I fall!"
"OKAY WE GET IT!" Demi groaned and walked out of the room. Was she going to leave Sterling?
