"HANNAH CHARLOTTE ALLEN!" Bree yells.

"What?" I roll my eyes.

"DON'T RUN AWAY FROM ME."

"K."

I turn away from Bree and start looking around. There were SO many people here. The lights dim and everyone is screaming.

"WOOOO!"

It has to be Demi. It has to be. We already missed the openers.

"HEY GUYS!" Demi says.

Everyone choruses back "Hi Demi!"

"I'm dedicating this song to a girl that I met at my meet and greet. She knows who she is. Hannah, this is for you."

My mouth hangs open. Holy. God.

"Before I fall, too fast, catch me quick but make it last. So I can see how badly this will hurt me, when you say goodbye." Demi sings 'Catch Me'.

I swoon. Demi Lovato is singing to me.

"Han, this is for you."

"Yeah Bree. I know."

"Why do you have to be so mean?"

"Hey Bree?"

"What?"

"I'm not. You are."

"Oh."

"Shut up, I'm trying to listen."

Finally, finally, fInally, Bree shuts up.

'Hey Hannah. It's not like Demi actually cared about you. She probably just said that so you won't go see her backstage. She won't want a fatass like you to see her.'

I squeeze my eyes shut.

Not here. Not now

.

I dig my fingernails into the palm of my hand until I feel blood. Already, I feel calm.

"Hey, Babe?" Bree says.

"Hmm?"

"It's over. Want me to take you backstage?"

"Yeah."

Bree grabs my hand and leads me away from our seats and into the backstage area.

I flash my backstage pass, but when Bree tries to trail behind me she gets stopped.

"Pass?" The guard asks.

"I don't have one."

"Well, you can't get in."

"Well. Fine. C'mon Hannah."

"What? Hell to the no!" I say.

"Fine! When you don't have a ride home don't call me!" Bree says, and spins around.

"Wow." The guard mutters.

"Tell me about it." I say.

I walk backstage and quickly, my anxiety builds. To many people. I suck in my stomach and start clawing my palm.

"Hannah!" I hear a voice say.

"Hi." I mutter

"What's wrong, baby girl?" Demi asks.

I shake my head and continue fighting the voices.

"Hey, hey now. Stop that. Don't do that." Demi says softly.

I physically can't stop and I try to tell Demi but it's like my mouth isn't working.

"Hannah, stop." Demi says more forcefully.

Demi reaches around and grabs my hands.

"Babe..." Tears glimmer in her eyes.

"I'm sorry. I should just go."

Demi grabs my wrist, "Don't leave yet, for I have just begun to kiss her."

I roll my eyes, quoting Looking For Alaska, nice one Demi.

"Come sit with me" Demi pleads.

I follow Demi and sit down next to her.

"Can I see?" Demi asks softly.

"No.." I say.

Demi takes my arm anyway and gasps again.

"You didn't."

Oh, but I did.
