CHAPTER 15- Pecans

Demi's POV

"Who the fuck does she think she is?!" I hissed throwing my hands into the hair as I walked into the room. "I mean seriously did you see the way she just grabbed Mac from me? I almost punched her in the face!"

Nick sighed, "I'm sure she didn't mean it Dems."

I turned around, my eyes blazing as he defended her.

"I don't give a shit how meant it. The way she was looking at you was unacceptable."

He smirked as I admitted my annoyance at that and my frustration grew. I stalked up to him, grabbing his shirt collar.

"Don't do that. She can't have you. I don't like to share."

Nick bit his lip and groaned as I crashed our mouths together. To my surprise, he pulled away, walking over to sit on the bed.

"Demi I'm not doing this here because of her."

I shook my head, "We're not 'doing' anything."

Nick raised an eyebrow, "Somehow I don't believe that."

I moved between his legs and wrapped my arms around him.

"I don't like the way girls look at you- including Amber. It's not jealousy, I would be jealous if you were her boyfriend. I'm territorial over what's mine." I bit my lip and pressed our bodies closer together. "And you are no exception.

This time it was Nick who closed the gap between our mouths. I sighed he pulled away again, leaning our foreheads together.

"You don't need to worry about anything Demi. I'm yours for as long as you'll have me."

I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face at his words.

"I love you."

He kissed my nose and pulled me into a hug, "I love you too baby.

We walked out of the room silently holding hands and no one gave us a second look. Mac ran over with a huge smile on her face and I dropped Nick's hand to scoop her into my arms.

"Hey baby."

She giggled excitedly, "I'm hungry momma!"

"Well just in time you two! Dinner is served!" My mom said behind me with a smile.

The room cheered as we all hurried to fill our plates. To my annoyance, and nick's amusement, Amber sat on my left while I placed Mac on my left. After saying grace, we dug in. It was silent for a few minutes, apart from the scraping of forks, until Amber leaned over to me.

"Hey no trips to the bathroom after dinner, okay?"

The room went silent as my fork clattered against the plate. Time slowed down as everyone waited for my reaction. Forcing a smiled, I picked up ym fork and nodded.

"Got it."

Dinner passed with no more conversation between Amber and I.

Curing the break between dinner and dessert I excused myself, walking to the bathroom and shutting the door behind me. I looked into my eyes in the mirror, taking deep breaths so I dind't go out there and punch Amber.

"Demi?" I cracked open the door to see Nick standing there. "Yes?"

He smiled, "Just making sure you were okay."

"In translation, you're making sure I'm not doing anything stupid."n

His eyes grew soft, "That's not what I was thinking Dems. Amber made a bad comment, I wanted to make sure you were okay."
