Justin's POV
I'm woken up by my mum
"Wake up Honey, come on. Someone's at the door for you" She whispers and moves stray hair off my forehead. "Please Honey" I grumble in reply. They just laugh. Wait? They? My eyes snap open to be met by a fresher looking Mae.
"Go away" I moan and pull the covers over my head
"No." She says stubbornly, I can just see her cross her arms across her chest and put on a pout. I may not have seen her in a year, but I know the unchangeable things about her.
"I'll leave you two at it. Good Luck Mae" My mum says and shuts the door, I hear muffled voices from behind the door. How could mum do this to me? She knows about the state I was in last night. I don't want to break down in front of her! I'm a man for goodness sake, that's the girls job.
OK that was really sexist. Sorry.
"Please say something" Mae pleads and sits on the bed. "Please Justin" She begs. I huff and act like I'm just tired. I rub my eyes and yawn and stretch
"Mornin'" I say simply
"Not what I meant, but Ok. Hey" She replies gleefully "Why did your mum wish me luck?" She asks genuinely confused
"Not a morning person anymore…" I trail off not wanting to sound like a spoilt little kid.
"Oh…" She looks away awkwardly "What happened last night. What happened to you? You just walked away" She looks at me with tears forming in her eyes "Did I do something wrong?"
Yes. I think. You didn't kiss me, then said it was a spur of the moment and broke my heart
"No" I say simply, with no feeling.
"I did, didn't I? Oh my gosh." She puts her head in her hands and sobs violently "I've lost my best friend. I've only just got you back." She looks at me, tears falling down her cheeks and her make up a little smudged.
I shuffle closer to her and put a hand to her cheek and wipe away the tears falling uncontrollably. "Please forgive m-" I cut her off by pressing my tired lips to her trembling ones. Something clicks inside of me, and it feels like a load of fireworks a set off in the pit of my stomach. My lips works against hers slowly and steadily, she responds by flinging her arms around my neck and tangles her fingers in my hair, my other arms hooks around her waist and I pull her onto my lap.
She pulls away too fast for my liking, she rests her forehead on mine. "Wow" She says simply and smiles a breath taking smile.
"Yeah" I agree and kiss her cheek.
"Hey Man!" I say and hug Ryan. Trying to remove the goofy smile that is plastered to my face
"What's up with you? All smiley" He imitates my goofy smile.
"Shut it" I say and punch his arm, he punches me back and we end up fighting, just throwing punches back and forth really.
After about 5 minutes fighting me and Ryan are rammed to the ground.
"Hey Chaz" I laugh and try to shove him off me.
"How'dya know it was me?" He moans and me and Ryan laugh.
"Ya heavy now get off me" I chuckle and this time successfully sending him into the mud. His body is sent plummeting into the big mud patch and his face lands with a loud SPLAT and mud is thrown everywhere. Chaz looks up at me and me and Ryan start cracking up. His face is as brown as well… mud and his hair is all in strands stuck to his forhead.
"Har Har very funny" He says sarcastically
"It actually is" Ryan says and we laugh harder. Chaz smiles sarcastically and comes running towards us. Me and Ryan scramble up off the ground and leg it.
"GUYS!" We hear Chaz scream over our chuckles.
"EW" I stopped in my tracks. "CHAZ!" A girly scream fills my ears, I turn around slowly and I instantly fling a hand to my mouth. "If you laugh Bieber, I swear I will be your living night mare" Mae says scarily. I put on a poker face and thawk Chaz. "Aw! Your so weak!" Mae squeals
"What!" I say surprised, I'm not that weak. My arms are strong, and my legs… Nahhh I'm strong, not to toot my horn, but I am.
"Chaz" She says simply and I turn my head to see Chaz rubbing his arm in pain
"It doesn't hurt!" He tries to protest, whilst pulling his hand away.
"Sure it doesn't" Mae replies, sarcasm dripping from every word she says. I cant help but smile at her confidence, her appearance, her personality, everything. Her brown hair loosely curled and falls perfectly around her shoulders, the way her jumper hangs loosely however it still shows her curves. Her joggers resting on her hips and finishing just below her knees.
"Fit" I mutter
"Excuse me?" Mae exclaims
"What?" I ask innocently
"What did you say?" She asks suspiciously.
"Nothing" I turn away quickly and bite my lip
"Ok" She happily replies. PICK UP THE PHONEEEEEEEEE I hear mine and Mae's voice shout loudly, "Hello?- Oh hey dad!- Yeah I miss you loads- Yeah seeing mum is great,- grandma too- dad….. Grandad died like 3 months ago- yeah you know-o-ok-yep-uh-huh- ok see you next year! Love you! Bye" Mae says down the iPhone attached to her ear, she blinks away the tears forming in her eyes. I look at her in wonder, she avoids my gaze and glances over my shoulder. Her eyes widen and a giggle passes through her lips. I look behind me and all the guys are having a mud fight "Come on Justin! Lets play!" She goes to pick up some mud to fling at the guys behind me.
"No- hang on" I grab her wrist and she looks at me. "What's going on? Please tell me." I beg her. We tell each other everything, well obviously not everything, because I don't know this. And its obviously been going on a while
"I-I- I don't really wanna talk about it" She says and tears form in her eyes again. Normally I'd let it slide, but she's crying for God's sake!
"Please tell me Mae, you can trust me. You know that!" I say and pull her over to a bench. I wrap my arm around her skinny waist and she instantly starts crying into my shoulder. "Sshhh, it's OK. Tell me whats the matter and I'll help"
"M-my d-dads in a hospital in Florida" She says and sobs escape her lips again.
One Chapter to go!
