LifeSaver (A Demi Lovato Fanfiction)

Chapter 19: Wilmer

Demi's POV

When I woke up, I rolled over and looked at the clock. It was 10am. I went downstairs and made breakfast. I didn't bother waking Winter up, I think she needs some sleep. I watched tv for a few hours. It was now 1pm. Winter still hasn't gotten up. I got off the couch and walked upstairs. As I approached Winter's door I heard crying coming from the other side. I knocked. "Winter, can I come in?" I asked.

"Yeah, just give me a minute." Her voice cracked near the end of the sentence. My poor baby, why is she crying? Wait did I just call her baby? Am I getting feelings for her? No no, I can't be. I'm straight, I have a thing for Wilmer. Right? Yeah. Yeah I'm into guys not girls. My thinking was interrupted when I heard the door open. Winter was standing in front of me, still in her pajamas. Her hair was tangled and messy and her eyes were red and a little puffy from crying. I didn't say anything, I just hugged her. She started crying again. I let go and grabbed her hand. I walked her back to her bed and we both sat down. "I'm so s-sorry." She said in between sobs.

"For what?"

"For last night. I should've come to you. I'm such an idiot for doing it."

"No, no you're not. Winter you obviously have a mental illness. None of this is your fault." She just kept crying. I hugged her again and she cried into my shoulder. I rubbed her back to try to calm her down and it worked. She let go of me and wiped her tears. Seeing her like this broke my heart. Maybe I do have some feelings for her. But I like Wilmer. I think..I don't know anymore. I heard my phone ringing downstairs. "I'll be right back." I said before running down stairs. I jumped on the couch and grabbed my phone. "Hello?" I said.

"Hey babe." It's Wilmer.

"Hey what's up?"

"Wanna go get some lunch with me?" He asked. I looked at the stairs, thinking if I should leave Winter home alone or not.

"Umm can I call you back? I need to check something."

"Sure." I hung up. I ran back up stairs and walked into Winter's room.

"Who was that?" Winter asked as I sat next to her on the bed.

"Wilmer. He wants me to go to lunch with him."

"Are you going to go?"

"I don't know, I don't want to leave you alone."

"It's fine, you should go."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Go have fun. I'll be fine." She said as she flashed me a small smile.

"Alright. But text or call me if you need me or if you're going somewhere."

"Okay mom." She giggled. I got off the bed and walked towards the door.

"See you later!" I said as I smiled at her. I grabbed a sweatshirt and a purse from my room then went downstairs. I texted Wilmer, 'Meet me at Olive Garden.' I got a fast response.

'I'm on my way.' I grabbed my keys off the hook and went out to my car. I started it up and drove off.
