Demi's Bad Day

DEMI POV

I woke up this morning feeling off, it's been an hour and nothing has changed. My mood is dropping quickly and I'm getting worried. I don't want today to be a rough day but I can tell that it is.

"Mom what are you still doing in bed?" Amanda asks

"Being lazy" I tell her

"Well breakfast is ready so come eat" Amanda says

"I'm not hungry" I say

"Mom" Amanda says while raising an eyebrow

"I'm not hungry" I say again

"You have to eat something you know if you don't it'll mess up your routine" Amanda says

"I'll eat later I promise" I say

"Alright fine" Amanda sighs

She goes back downstairs but comes back up a few minutes later.

"It's later, now eat" she says as she hands me a plate

I slowly start to eat and Amanda looks at me worriedly.

"What's on you're mind?" She asks

"Don't worry about me" I say

"Don't make me go all worried Lovatic on you" Amanda says

"I'm fine really" I say

"I know you're not" Amanda says

"How would you know whether I'm having a bad day or not?" I ask

"You're refusing to eat and being defensive, you're always like this when you have a bad day" Amanda says

"Alright fine" I sigh "I woke up feeling off and I'm just not feeling strong but I don't want you to worry about me"

"You're my mom, my best friend, my idol and inspiration I'm going to worry about you" Amanda says "and I'm not letting you relapse"

"Thanks baby" I say

"Of course" Amanda says

"I have to pee" I announce

"No you don't I know your demons are screaming at you to purge" Amanda says

I groan and lay back on my pillows. Amanda moves my plate and pulls me up.

"Come with me" she says as she drags me out of my room.

I'm led to the music room and forced to sit on the piano bench. Amanda starts playing skyscraper then has me sing along with her. She goes through a series of songs she says help her stay strong. Some of them are great songs to listen to.

"thanks for that" I say

"No need to thank me" she says

"My daughter really shouldn't have to look over me" I sigh

"She's worried about your health and recovery she doesn't mind" Amanda says

"I love you" I say

"I love you more" Amanda says

"I really do have to pee though" I say

"Alright go" Amanda says

I get up and run to the bathroom. My demons are screaming at me but I'm doing my best to block them out. Once I'm done in the bathroom I grab my phone. There's a text from one of my exes.

Wilmer: I want you back and nothing will get in my way

I put my phone on my bed and burst into tears. Wilmer has left me alone for so long now I don't get why he's coming after me now. All of the memories are coming back now, The good and the bad.
