Much Better | Chapter 8 | Dess?
Joe's POV;
I looked down hiding my face as Demi laughed even harder.
Nick looked confused when I looked up at him. I shook my head at him.
“Don’t ask again.” I said, a bit grumpy. I got up and went over to the living room sitting on the couch not really planning on doing anything but that. I suddenly felt weight beside me and turned to see Demi sitting there with a smirk. I groaned, “Whaat?” I whined.
She giggled, “Come on, I wanna go to the beach today!” she jumped up excited.
I sighed, “Fine.” I said. She grinned and kissed my cheek before running up the stairs to get ready. I let out a breath as Nick joined me on the couch. I felt him staring at me so I looked back.
“So…can I ask now?” I rolled my eyes.
One thing people should know about Nick is that he is very nosey.
He doesn't give up until he finds out.
“Demi heard me say her name...a few times last night in my sleep.” I groaned.
Nick started to chuckle a little, then Demi rushed down the stairs and looked at us both.
“You guys ready?”
Nick shook his head, “No, we gotta drive by our house so I can get my swim shorts.”
“I think I have atleast two here, you can borrow one, so we'll have more time at the beach.” I suggested.
Nick nodded and I went upstairs to grab the shorts.
Demi's POV;;
I sighed as I watched him run upstairs. My date with Taylor went great last night, though the only feeling I had being around him was nothing more than friendship, and I told him that.
I caught Nick looking at me, with an eyebrow raised.
“Why don't you just tell him you still love him?” he asked.
“It's not that easy, Nick. I don't want to go through anything like before again. What if we get back together and he breaks up with me again because he finds someone better?” I asked him.
He looked frustrated, “Dems...” Nick started, but was interrupted by Joe's voice.
“Alright, we're ready to go!” Joe jumped from the last 3 steps on the stairs and threw a pair of short at Nick, taking my hand then dragging me out the door.

The drive to the beach was pretty quit.
After a while we finally arrived at the beach, and Joe quickly found a parkingspot, and the three of us went to change.
Joe's POV;;
I looked down at Demi, who was laying beside me. I ran my eyes along her long already tanned legs all the way up to her neck. Damn, I missed her.
She was my first and only. Only, she doesn't know that. She thinks I'm sleeping around when really, I always stop it just before anything happens with any of the other girls.
Because every time, I get that feeling inside of me that says it's not right.
I was just about to lay back down when someone stumbled right into my lap.
At first I was about to push her off me, but I laughed when I noticed who it was.
Miley Cyrus, Nick's ex-girlfriend.
She got up quickly and apologized, and then noticed who I was. She grinned and jumped on me, hugging the life out of me.
“JOE!” her scream made Demi look up at us. She furrowed her eyebrows and sat up not recognizing the girl.
I chuckled and Miley pulled away. This time it was Demi who jumped on Miley.
“SMILEY!” Both girls laughed as they hugged each other. I rolled my eyes, “Typical girls...”
I said. Oth of them looked down at me, then the next thing I know, I was feeling a sting on each side of my arms.
“Ow!” I pouted. Demi and Miley giggled at me.
"Dess?"
Behind me was Nick.
He had dropped his ice cream and his mouth was hanging wide open, staring at Miley.
