A/N – Ok so this is just a little filler chapter before I do the heart–to-heart scene between brother and sister which depending on how I'm feeling depends on how soppy I make it. Anyway I hope you have enjoyed the story so far and the heart-to-heart chapter will probably be the last one.
So I'm sitting in my bedroom waiting for Alex to finish her shift feeling strangely excited yet nervous at the same time. I was shortly going to be getting the answers to my questions which was why I was feeling excited yet the nerves were also present in case I didn't like what I heard. I mean I knew that since I had lost Juliet I had changed and I had started enjoying life by not taking it so seriously. I hadn't let anyone get too close to me including my family and I hadn't shown any real emotion about anything I had done. I had been having a great time with my friends, and yet still managing to focus on school and my magic. The scary thought in all this though was since losing Juliet me and Alex had not had a proper conversation, just the occasional snide remark or insult as we passed by each other. This was going to be strange, after all Alex is not the most sympathetic person around and if anything this was definitely going to end up in some sort of argument. Especially since I had changed so much and no longer let Alex wrap me round her little finger. In fact I can't actually remember the last time she came to me to get her out of trouble, in fact now you come to mention it I can't actually remember the last time me and my family spent any quality family time altogether. I seemed to spend most of my time either out with my friends, at school or in the substation working. Seems to me that since I lost Juliet I also lost a lot of other good things as well. Maybe this is not a good time for me to be letting my guard down like this. Alex will be here any minute and will just take advantage of me, unless she has been feeling the same thing. Could she have possibly been missing the old me and the time we all spent together as a family. Nah not Alex surely. Well looks like I'm about to find out, as Alex is knocking on my door, so here it goes be strong Justin don't let her get to you, don't loose that who gives a damn attitude just yet. Let me at least get some kind of indication about how she has truly felt these last few months. Stay calm Justin, just stay calm.
"Justin, can I come in."
Please read and review as I really appreciate any one taking the time to tell me what they thought of my story. If it's rubbish tell me as I also appreciate honest reviews.
