DEMI
My legs are shaking nervously as everyone fixates on me. Kira is so evil to do something like this. I try to catch my breath and think.
I can't even glance at Ashton. I don't want to give him a look that could easily be misconstrued at the table so I let my eyes droop to my sweaty hands. When father orders me to respond, my heart gallops. How am I supposed to get out of this now?
Anna's hand reaches under the table to grab mine.
"I'm sorry Mr. and Mrs. Rollins, there seems to be a misunderstanding. Demi didn't take the number for herself; she did it for me." She dips her eyes in shame. "Like most women in Danvarr, going on a date with the Rollins' quads is a bucket list of mine that will never see the light of day. Most of us have nursed silly crushes for your sons since they became famous but it's nothing obsessive like a stalker or crazy." She clarifies. While father's frown only deepens, mother's tensed face breaks into a small smile.
