"That was more than amazing Steph. This song will change a lot of people's life's" I nodded hoping it would be true.
I stepped back out and heard it, I could feel a huge weight off my shoulders. I then ran back in picking up an electric guitar recording it, I did the same with piano and drums. After everything was in its place we sat back on the couch watching YouTube videos.
"Guys" we heard Mia come in, that's when we leaned back pretending to be asleep. "Guys! Wake up!! Seriously all you did was sleep!" John and I jumped up laughing.
"I seriously hate you guys" Mia handed us our food, sitting down to eat her lunch I walked back over to the control surface pulling up my new recorded single. "Stephanie, don't touch that it's expensive" I looked over my shoulder and smirked playing my song.
Mia's face was priceless, she stood up and looked from me and John. After the song was finished we were all in tears once again.
"You did this?" I nodded cleaning my face. "Wow that's amazing. Looks like we aren't going to need that producer after all." Mia and John pulled me into their famous tight hug.
"Welcome back Stephanie Bell" I smiled at the pair.
"Happy to be back"
Demi's POV
Today my first single will be released to the world, I'm excited but also anxious at the same time. This single isn't just another love song, no, this song has deeper meaning.
"Demi, I know your nervous but everything will go great. You got this" I smiled at Marissa's words nodding.
We were on our way to the radio station for the premiere of Skyscraper, my brain hasn't excepted the fact Stephanie was really gone. Yes, my heart knew she wasn't mine nor was she talking to me but my head. Oh my mind, it played these little tricks on me once in a while. It made me think Stephanie still cared. It made me believe she would be waiting for me back at home siting on the couch were we would make out for hours and hours.
Oh my delusional mind.
This morning my mind made me believe she was laying next to me in bed. And that was probably the worst feeling ever, waking up to no one but your pillow.
"Good morning! We're here with the talented Demi Lovato!" I was putted out of my thoughts. I never noticed getting out the car better yet sitting down in front of the microphone and interviewers.
"Hi, how are you" I softly answered.
"We are ecstatic for your new song!" I giggled. "This is your first song since treatment, how was it. You must be feeling better" I looked away incensed
"I don't think I'm fixed. People think you're like a car in a body shop. You go in, they fix you up and and you're out and you work like you're brand new. It doesn't work like that. It takes constant time. Addiction is addiction, and you're going to deal with it for the rest of your life. And you're going to have days where you're going to struggle. I cannot tell you that I haven't thrown up since treatment - I cannot tell you that I have not cut myself since treatment because I'm not perfect and it's a daily battle, I'm just like everyone else."
"If you could give advise to anyone out there who is struggling right now, what would it be?"
"My advice to those who are struggling with the same things I still struggle with is to speak up. Asking for help does not make you weak. Help is out there and recovery is possible. Please don't give up your fight."
"Well said Demi, with that being said here's Demi Lovato's new inspiring single Skyscraper!"

You know that feeling of needing something but not knowing what it is that you need. Well, that's what I'm feeling right now.
It's 2 am but I can't sleep, I should be resting for my album signing tomorrow, I can't. Thoughts keep coming in, out and circle in my head. My mind doesn't want rest while my body desperately needs it.
I don't know what's going on anymore, I feel lonely. This is probably the longest time I haven't been with someone.
When Stephanie was away, I had Wilmer, who I regret more then anything in the world. My point is, I'm need affection, no.
I'm craving affection...
There was only one thing left to do, maybe I'll regret it later but right now. I need to feel something...
Taking my phone in my hand, I unlocked it and searched up the number I thought I would never call again. But I did. I placed my phone up to my ear and waited, every second made me anxious. Until.
"Hello?"
