"It's in March and practice is starting soon. You can right?" I nodded smiling.

"I told you guys I'm not backing out"

"Your still with Demi, you do know that right?" Shit I kinda forgot about that but I only nodded.

"Yeah. That's cool" Maya raised her eyebrow while Isabel nodded.

"So how's the baby process going?" I smirked. Maya was still shaky about the whole Isabel wanting a baby thing but it was a good way of changing the subject.

"It's very stressful! Maya complains so much about it when she's not the one who's going to have it! She's this and that, it's very annoying." I laughed and turned to Maya.

"Don't you want a baby Maya?"

"Of course I do, but with the wedding and everything I just don't think right now it the right time" she started the longest conversation I ever heard.

"Hey sorry to interrupt ladies, Stephanie there's someone I want you to meet." Alex my mothers boyfriend said.

"Sorry guys I'll be back okay" Isabel and Maya nodded and went back to their conversation.

"Wow those two seriously love each other" Alex commented as we walked away. I nodded giggling. "You have no idea" We walked up to this beautiful girl who had half her hair black and other half I believe some kind of faded blonde with an septum piercing.

"Stephanie this my daughter Melanie Martinez, Melanie this is Stephanie Bell" daughter? Wow she's looks very different from him.

"Hey, I heard a lot about you" I beamed.

"Hi" either she's shy or she must not be a talker.

"Alright I'll let you two to talk. See you in a bit" we both nodded and watched him walk away.

"Hey you don't have to be shy or anything I'm a easy person to get along with." She nodded but still didn't open up. "I mean it, don't think of me as Stephanie Bell, just think of me as a long old friend" she seemed to get the idea and loosen up a little or a lot because the next question she asked nearly knocked me over.

"Um, please don't take this the wrong way or anything but uh, is, was. Umm, you know. It's just there's a lot of moments that don't add up and I just can't help and assume. Was semi real?" She said everything so fast I almost didn't catch it but I did hear her ask about semi.

"Your one of the semi fans huh?" She slowly nodded scared. Well I mean it's looks like my mother and this guy are probably getting married and honestly I don't even cared. She's only one girl. "Honestly yeah it was" I amid it.

"I'm so sorry for assuming things I- wait what!?" She freaked out. Pretty bad I might add. "Are you serious!" I nodded laughing. "No your just joking with me" I shook my and putted out my phone. I decided to show her some old pictures of Demi and I kissing and you know doing couple stuff. "Oh my god! Semi was real!!! I can't believe I was right! I'm shaking! I love you guys so much it hurts!"

"Yeah you and a lot of other people" I whispered.

"I don't mean to be rude but what happened?" This is where I decided to lie. You want to why? Because even though Demi did hurt me she didn't deserve that bad image or hate from anyone else.

"Well like I said, people grow apart" Melanie nodded understanding completely and even offered me a hug which I took. She's about Demi's height which honestly hurt a little.

"Do you think semi will ever come back?" Man she sure is a fan. I giggled at her question then thought.

"Honestly?" She nodded with a big smile. "No, never, not again" she looked heartbroken but hey that's life right.
