Skyscraper.Part 3

"...would it make you...feel better...to watch me while I bleed..."
-Demi-
It's been about a month since Joe got back from the hospital.I was on my way to his dressing room to see him when I notice a black jetta in the parking lot.I know that car,I
know that license plate...That's Ashley's car.I looked at my feet,feeling the tears welling up.I turned to walk away,but I bumped into Nick.He caught me by the waist before I fell
back,"Woah,hey.Sorry,Dems,I didn't mean to run into you." I nodded and sniffled still looking down.He lifted up my chin and wiped away a tear that escaped,"What's wrong?"
"She's here,Nick.Ashley's here."
"Oh,Demi..." he sighed and pulled me close,"It's gonna be okay,I promise."
I dug my head into his chest and bunched up his shirt in both of my hands.He rubbed my back,"Do you wanna go back to your bus?"
I nodded and he walked me over to my tour bus.We layed on my bed that was in the back.Nick's not stupid,I know he knows how much damage Ashley can cause by being here.I layed my head on his chest and giggled at how it rose and fell along with his breathing.He looked down at me and smiled,"There's that laugh I was looking for." I smiled and blushed,"Thank you for making me feel better,Nick."
"Dems,all I did was stick by your side."
"That's all I can ever ask for." I could feel his heart beat speed up and he pulled me just a little closer to his body.Eventually we fell asleep.

It was dark when we woke up.Nick left about 10 minutes after we finally got out of the bed;we were really comfortable.I grabbed a pen and paper and sat down on my bed to write a new song that was coming to me.I was barely getting done with the chorus when I heard Ashley giggle.I looked out my window and saw her and Joe.I felt it again,that pang in my heart I felt earlier.I know Ashley saw me,'cause right after she looked up at me,she pulled Joe
into what looked like a semi-awkward kiss.Awkward or not,it still hurt.I looked away and put the pen and paper in my hand down.I pulled my knees close to my chest and started
crying.

15 minutes later,Joe knocked on my door.I answered it,reluctantly.He was smiling,I narrowed my eyes,"What are you so damn happy about?" He frowned,"Hello to you,too,Grumpy."
"Save the jokes for someone who actually wants to hear them,Joseph.What do you want?"
He looked confused,"What's wrong? Why are you acting like this?"
"Is that all you're here for? To ask me stupid questions?"
"Demi..."
"Go away,Joe.I have more important things to do." I closed the door before he could object.I walked into my bathroom,opened up the kitchen cabinet and pulled out a razor.I held it close to my wrist for what seemed forever,I shouldn't do this.I wasn't going to do this,cutting wasn't who I was.I could face my problem,I could confront it.It may take some time,but I know I can do it.A knock on the door made me jump and cut deep into my wrist.I cursed and wrapped a towel around it,"Who is it?" I asked.
"It's Joe.I want to talk to you,Demi."
Crap.I opened the door and tried to hide my left arm as best I could,"About what?" Joe opened his mouth to speak,then closed it.That's when I figured it out,he was looking behind me.He saw the razor on the sink,he saw the blood dripping off of it,and he...flipped...out.
"What are you doing,Demi?! How could you cut yourself?! That's so stupid! It just screams attention!"
I picked up my hair dryer and threw it at him,but he ducked and it hit one of the windows.
"Screw you,Joe! I didn't intentionally cut myself,you idiot! I was thinking about it,yeah,but I wasn't really gonna do it! You knocked on my door and it scared me,so I accidentally cut myself! So if anyone's to blame here,it's you,you jackass!" I pushed him out the door and slammed it in his face.I slid down it and started crying again;Did he really think I would do that? Does he really think I'd only do it for attention? I pulled my knees close and started to bawl,not just because of Joe's ludicrous accusation,but also because the cut on my wrist was so deep it stung.
