"I'm so sorry! Let me get your books for you," Justin said. His voice was perfect. Every word just melted together into one smooth rhythm. He sounded sincere when he said this. Like he actually cared. That's nice.
I just stood there motionless like an idiot. He bent down and picked up my books and handed them to me.
"Oh is that yours too?" He picked up my copy of Romeo and Juliet. "Romeo and Juliet?" I blushed a deep red. He looked at me with those welcoming hazel eyes and smiled.
"I don't mind this story too much. I guess I'm kinda a romantic." He said and shrugged.
"I, I like it too," I stuttered. Is that really all I could say? Geeze he's romantic too? Is there any possible way he could get better? I don't think so. He held out my book. I grabbed it and his hand by accident. I blushed an even deeper red.
"Justin!" Tailor literally shrieked.
"Oh, um, gotta go, but I'll see ya around." He smiled, winked at me, and went to his girlfriend.
I was practically hyperventilating when I got to Kristin's car. I put my stuff in the trunk and got in. Kristin glanced at me.
"You alright Miss Smiles-a-lot?" Kristin asked.
I quickly told her everything that had happened with Justin.
"Well good for you hon!" She responded.
"I loved every minute of it until Tailor cut in. She is getting on my nerves. It's not like we were about to make out or anything. We ran into each other and I dropped my books. He was being polite and picked them up. That's it. Nothing more," I said.
"You wish it was more though…"
"Be quiet and drive." I smiled. Yes I wish it was more.
"Emma? Hello? Emma?" My mom said.
I was daydreaming about Justin…again. I didn't realize it was so obvious I was gone.
"You seem a million miles away. "Everything fine at school?" My mom asked.
"Yeah everything is fine Mom," I responded.
"Friends?"
"Good."
"Boys?"
"MOM!"
"Sorry honey, I just get concerned sometimes that's all. You know I love you very much and if you need to talk, I'm always here."
"Yeah thanks Mom." I love my mom, but I just don't tell her stuff like this. Dinner continued and ended in silence.
I went up to my room to be on the computer. I loved my room. It was huge first of all, and I have my own bathroom. I have a walk-in closet, but it's not very full. I have a TV and computer in it as well. Okay, I admit I'm extremely spoiled. My mom is the president of some large corporation. I don't know much about it. Since my mom makes a lot of money from her job and I'm an only child, I get a lot of stuff.
I turned on my computer went onto Facebook. I don't understand why I even have a Facebook since I'm not that social. I check it like every two weeks. Might as well keep it though. I had one new friend request. Oh great, probably another fifty year old creeper I don't know. I clicked on it and it said Justin Bieber. My mouth dropped open. This has got to be a trick. There's no way the most popular guy in school sent me a friend request. Sure, I'm friends with Wil who's friends with him but I'm still not that popular. Well, ACCEPT! Wow, I can't believe that just happened.
I looked at the chat. OMG HE SAID HI! What should I say? What should I say? How about hi back dumdum? Wow, I am a genius. Ha.
"Hey." -E
"Sorry I had to run off so quickly earlier today. Tailor gets a little frantic when I talk to other girls. And I think she saw our…er…hands." -JB
"It's ok. Can I ask you something?" -E
I hope he doesn't think I'm too pushy or nosy or something.
"Sure." -JB
"Do you ever get annoyed by Tailor? I mean like her constant clinging and jealously? It seems like something that wouldn't be the best for a relationship." -E
It's gonna say he's offline. I offended him and now he's gone. Why am I so stupid?
"Well…yeah. Sometimes." No way he actually responded. "For some crazy reason she thinks every girl wants to snatch me away from her. She trusts me deep down. It's just hard for her." -JB
"Oh." -E
"She's really cool though. I'm thinking about telling her I love her. I wrote her a song and everything." -JB
"Oh…that's great. Who's gonna sing it to her?" -E
That's great as in this sucks. My chances were just taken way out of the picture.
"I am." -JB
He can sing too? I was wrong earlier, he could get better.
"Can I hear it sometime or is it just for her?" -E
"Yeah it would actually be nice to run it by another girl before I play it for her."-JB
"Play it? On what?" -E
"Guitar. I play the guitar as well. So can I play it for you sometime?" -JB
Guitar too? Okay he seriously can't get any better!
"Yeah sounds awesome." -E
I wonder if he knows how sarcastic this was supposed to be…
"K, cool. See ya tomorrow." -JB
"Bye." -E
Justin Bieber is offline.
