ALEX'S POV

We drove to Marissa's house to go and pick her up. That meant I had to get in the back seat of the car when we got there. We knocked on her door and she answered.

"MARISSA!" I screamed and jumped in her arms.

"Woah! I missed you too sex joke buddy." She laughed. She calls me that because we always make sexual jokes. Last week Marissa and I found a chocolate dick online and gave it to mom as a present. We called it the BCC (Big Chocolate Cock).

We got in the car and headed to the mall. Marissa and I gave each other a certain look, knowing which store we wanted to go.

"So, what store were you guys thinking?" Mom asks as she puts her phone in her purse.

"SPENCER'S!" Marissa and I shouted at the same time. Mom facepalmed as we ran into the store. We instantly went to the back where all the sex toys are.

"Marissa! Look! It's a cock sucker!" I exclaimed as I held up a sucker that looked like a dick. "Mom! Can I get it? Please!" I give her a begging look and laugh.

"Well.. I don't know." Mom says while thinking.

"If you don't buy it for her, I will. Someone has to teach her how to suck a dick." Marissa said and we all laughed. She went up and paid for it. I handed it to mom so she could put it in her purse.

'You idiot. That has a lot of sugar and calories. You're just gonna get fatter.'

'I'm not that fat.'

'Then why does everyone say you are? You should start losing some weight.'

'I mean.. I'm pretty skinny.. but I could always be skinnier. You're right'

'I'm always right'

'Shut up!'

"Shut up!" I screamed and fell to the floor.

"Alex!" Mom panics and grabs me before I hit the floor completely. We both fall to the floor together.

"Make them shut up!" I screamed as I was uncontrollably sobbing and shaking. Mom gently picked me up as we made our way back to the car. She got into the back seat with me. "Please.. make them shut up." I say quietly as she holds me close.

"Make who shut up, baby girl?" She asks, sounding worried.

"M-Mommy.. they won't shut up." I whimpered and she held me tighter.

DEMI'S POV

"M-Mommy.. they won't shut up." Alex whimpered and I held her tighter as she hid her face. It broke my heart seeing her break down out of nowhere like this. Marissa offered to drive back to the house so I gave her the keys.

"Alex, calm down. Just breathe, baby. You're going to get sick if you don't calm down." I whispered in her ear. "I want to help you. But you have to tell me who you want to shut up, baby girl." Alex calms down a bit. I gently picked her up and carried her inside when we got back. I brought her to the couch and we sat down. She situated herself onto my lap.

"I.. I'm sorry.." Alex whispered as she hid her face against my chest.

"You don't have to apologize, baby." I whispered in her ear. She was still slightly shaking and crying so I decided to sing.

There's a boy, lost his way, looking for someone to play

There's a girl in the window tears rolling down her face

We're only lost children, trying to find a friend

Trying to find our way back home

We don't know where to go, so I'll just get lost with you

We'll never fall apart, 'cause we fit together right, we fit together right

These dark clouds over me, rain down and roll away

We'll never fall apart, 'cause we fit together like

Two pieces of a broken heart

I know where we could go and never feel let down again

We could build sandcastles, I'll be the queen, you'll be my king

We're only lost children, trying to find a friend

Trying to find our way back home

We don't know where to go, so I'll just get lost with you

We'll never fall apart, 'cause we fit together right, we fit together right

These dark clouds over me, rain down and roll away

We'll never fall apart, 'cause we fit together like

Two pieces of a broken heart

Now I can lay my head down and fall asleep

Oh, but I don't have to fall asleep to see my dreams

'Cause right there in front of me (right there in front of me)

There's a boy, lost his way, looking for someone to play

We don't know where to go, so I'll just get lost with you

We'll never fall apart, 'cause we fit together right, we fit together right

These dark clouds over me, rain down and roll away

We'll never fall apart, 'cause we fit together like

We fit together like

Two pieces of a broken heart

There's a boy, lost his way, looking for someone to play

When I was done singing I noticed she fell asleep. I sighed and looked at Marissa, who also looked worried.

"I'll ask her about it when she wakes up." I quietly told Marissa. She nods and sits down next to me and turns on the ID channel.
