I spent the rest of the night with Natalie. Just talking and laughing, and kissing and hugging. I was really in love with Natalie. Everything about her; the way she laughed, the way she told me what was on her mind and that wasn't all superficial like the girls I've dated before. She was a keeper, I could feel it.

*Natalie.

Yesterday was awesome. I loved all the things Justin said to me. He really did like me, wait, he loved me.

I meant something to him as he did to me. This was the best feeling ever.

Justin went back to his hotel yesterday. But I knew I would see him soon.

I searched for something to eat in the fridge. I was wearing my pajamas and my hair in a messy ponytail.

I heard the doorbell ring.

"Ugh".

I walked to the door, when I opened it I was surprised to see Justin standing there with three paper bags from McDonald's.

"Breakfast?" He said.

"Please"

I pigged out in front of Justin. What? I was hungry. I was very comfortable with him. I felt more myself and now I didn't feel like I had to hide anything from him.

"You know what?" I said

"What?"

"I don't know when your birthday is". I told him and took a sip of my milkshake.

"March first. I don't know when your birthday is either" He said.

"August 20th." I said quietly

"Little baby's finally turning sixteen?" He teased

"Shut up! In maturity years I'm older than you."

"Oh, is that so?" He said getting closer.

"Yes. Today is July one more month". I went back to my milkshake.

"Ha-ha. So are you throwing a super sweet sixteen party bash?"

"No. I don't want to have a party."

"What, no party? You'll only turn sixteen once".

"Yeah, I'm more of a party go-er than a party planner."

"Mhmm…"

"What?"

"I'm sure you'll have a good time". I wondered what he was talking about, then he changed subject. "So, what do you want to do today?"

"I know you want to do stuff with me but I can't". I said making a fake sad face.

"Right, like you don't want to do stuff with me." He said with a sarcastic tone

"Why are you so sure?" I dared.

We both laughed and I kissed him softly.

"It's my little cousin's birthday party. Wanna come?"

"Um, I'll have to miss it. I was thinking of visiting Victoria to see how she's doing. Is that okay?"

"Oh, that's sweet of you".

"I'd better get going. How 'bout, see you tomorrow?" Justin stood up and kissed my forehead.

"Yeah, sounds great. Thanks for breakfast."

"Make sure Maddie gets hers."

"Don't worry I'm packed, but if I wasn't I would've eaten it".

He smiled. Oh that smile.

"See you soon then, baby." He said. Then he left.

*JUSTIN

I called Tory's number.

"Justin?" She answered.

"Hey Tory, how are you?"

"I'm good, how about you?" She said in a friendly tone.

"Very well, hey how about we go for coffee or something? Could you tell Blair? I want to talk to you guys."

"Yeah of course, we'll meet you there".

"Okay, see you, bye".

"Bye!"

I opened the door of the little coffee shop in downtown Los Angeles. I saw Blair trying to help Victoria get up from her chair. I ran to them feeling a twinge of guilt I got her into these crutches.

"No, don't get up it's alright." I told them.

"No big deal!" Victoria said.

I greeted them and sat down on one of the chairs.

"Hey, I'm still so sorry about what happened, I feel like I owe you"

"Don't even bother! Look on the bright side; you wouldn't have met any of us if it hadn't happened". Victoria said almost yelling as she pushed her hair down with her sunglasses.

"Yeah, you've made Natalie very happy". Blair said in a very sweet voice. As I got to know these girls I realized they were all so different but still they were best friends

I've made Natalie happy?

"Has she mentioned me?" I said smiling.

"Well…" Blair started.

"Like EVERY SECOND! She won't stop, like the other day, remember Blair? When she…" Victoria said easily.

Blair made a face to her that said, Shut the fuck up. Then Victoria said:

"Well, yeah she's very happy."

We all laughed together.

"Yes, she's the best. I uh, I love her." I told her friends.

"Aw, we're very happy for both of you." Blair said.

"So guys, Natalie told me she's turning sixteen next week." I changed subject.

"Yes, finally! She's the baby of the group". Victoria said.

"I want to throw her a surprise party." I said.

"Yeah that would be awesome". Victoria said.

"I know right, you could invite all of your friends and I'll tell mine". I said

"Yeah, OMG you could perform!" Victoria said.

"That'd be cool, it's gonna be awesome and then we could…" Blair interrupted me.

"Wait guys, don't you think Natalie would like a smaller thing. Like a get together or something. She's not the party type."

"Well, she told me she was more the party go-er than party planner. So, she'll just have to go, no planning." I said with a daring smile. "I want the best for ma' lady".

They both smiled in agreement.

"I want it to be on the beach" I continued

"Wow that would be amazing". Blair said.

We continued talking for about an hour. We had everything planned and the girls were going to help me make some phone calls.

When I got to my hotel, I texted Natalie. We texted for about 3 hours until she went to sleep. I loved to talk to her, everything she said and how she said it was very her, in a way. She was awesome. I wanted nobody but her.

*Natalie

Today the girls were sleeping over at my house.

My mom would be home in about an hour. I haven't told her that I and Justin are official. But as soon as I see her I'll tell her.

I made breakfast for Maddie. Then the doorbell rang.

When I opened the door…

"Sweetie! Hello, how's it been?" She hugged me.

"Awesome".

"Mommy!" Maddie yelled and ran to hug her.

"Hey, mom?"

"What's up baby?" She said.

"Can I talk to you?" I sad, tugging my hands in my pockets.

"Sure thing."

We walked to the living room couch.

"Well, you know I told you about the date with Justin?"

"Aha…"

"We've been seeing each other a lot, and we're now sort of official."

"Aw, baby girl! Your first boyfriend, that's so sweet".

I smiled.

"But what about him being all famous, doesn't that change things?" She asked me.

"Well yea but I think we can make it work".

"I'm glad." She said and gave me a hug.

Later today Blair and Tory arrived. I told them things about me and Justin but not all the details or the very personal stuff. They all awed to everything. We talked and saw movies. Some chick flicks they were crying over about while I texted with Justin.

It was about 10 pm when Justin came by. Just to say hi. He didn't come in or anything I snuck out and we made out for about half an hour in his car. It was so romantic, sort of. We talked a little than he said I'd better go back to my friends. I went inside after a goodbye kiss on the sidewalk under the moon.

*Justin

Yesterday I went with Natalie to a fair by the beach. Although some paparazzi did get some shots of us it was still fun. I didn't care what was going on if I was with her. Although Kenny pushed almost all of them away.

We went on the rides, ate a lot of junk food. I won her a stuffed animal and she laughed and said that I was so corny for taking her there. We even rode the Ferris wheel and we kissed while we were on the top.

"Justin! Justin, wake up!" I heard a voice say.

"What's going on?"

"I just got a call from New York. They want to have you on the today show".

"Ugh, today?" I said.

"Tomorrow, but there is a meeting today at 5:00, we have to go right now".

"Come on, get up".

I stood up still asleep and got into the shower. That woke me up. My mom hurried me into the jet

I didn't get a chance to talk to Natalie. We were supposed to go to dinner tonight. I was taking her to a fancy restaurant. I hope she's not mad that I'll have to postpone it.

The flight was felt long. I just wanted to call her.

As soon as I got to New York we went into a meeting with a publicist that lasted about two hours. Natalie is gonna be so freaking mad at me. It was 7 already. And I finally got to call her.
