Two Pieces - A Jemi Fanfiction

Chapter 12

Demi's Pov

I laid in bed that night, running through my lyrics and tune in my head, just then, I hummed a new tune, and it was somewhat good. But, I needed a piano, like, now.

It was 11pm so it wasn't too bad as I had only just heard Joe walk into his room, his parents had gone out for a date night and Nick was staying another night with his mates.

I slowly opened the guest bedroom door and I walked along the corridor, the music room was above the kitchen but quite a way from Joe's room so I was hoping that Joe wouldn't hear me play if I closed the door.

When I got to the music room I opened the door, walked in and then closed it behind me. I quickly hummed my new tune again, pleased that I hadn't forgotten it. I walked over to the piano and began playing with some new chords and notes trying to put my new tune down. I had brought the paper with my lyrics on it, and I began to, as quietly as I could, bash out some notes; I wrote them down.

Then suddenly the thought of some words came to me. I sang them while playing the new tune.

"And I just ran out of band-aids,

I don't even know where to start,

'Cause you can bandage the damage,

You never really can fix a heart."

"FIX A HEART!" I shouted, probably louder than I should have

"Fix a heart..." I whispered, hoping that Joe hadn't heard me shout.

But I guess he did because no sooner had I whispered fix a heart, Joe slowly opened the door and walked in "Demi! Are you alright?" he asked

"Yes!" I smiled

"Why are you so happy?"

"Because.....well listen..." I said as I began to sing from the beginning

"It's probably what's best for you,

I only want the best for you,

And if I'm not the best then you're stuck,

I tried to sever ties and I ended up with wounds to blind,

Like you're pouring salt in my cuts.

And I just ran out of band-aids,

I don't even know where to start,

'Cause you can bandage the damage,

But you never really can fix a heart. "

I smiled as I continued.

"Even though I know what's wrong,

How could I be so sure,

If you never say what you feel, feel,

I must have held your hand so tight,

You didn't have the will to fight,

I guess you needed more time to heal.

Baby, I just ran out of band-aids,

I don't even know where to start,

'Cause you can bandage the damage,

You never really can fix a heart."

I stopped and looked at Joe, the piano echoing in the background; he was staring at me, I stared into his eyes, getting lost. He slowly leaned in and as he did I did too, not quite knowing what was going on. Our lips touched and I felt sparks fly and my heart skip a beat, an amazing feeling came over me.

Just then I reaised what was going on so I pulled away, I couldn't be in love with someone that I hardly knew, could I?
