Hey guys I'm back. Sorry it's been awhile I was in Oklahoma City all last week. Oh and Justin is famous in this story. Of those of you who were wondering. :)

Valerie's POV

I leap out of bed and run out into the hall. I follow the sound until I reach Brandon's room or should I say Justin's room. Anyway I ran in there to see Justin sitting there crying.

Justin's POV

I'm running from something, no not something, someone. They have a gun in their hand and they are shooting. They killed my family and now are out to kill me. I hear a shot and there is a horrible pain in my leg then the same pain in my chest. I'm screaming now. Then I see my killer, it's Natalie, the girl I thought I loved. The girl who ripped my heart out and broke it. The girl who picked him over me.

I jolt awake ,my throat feels raw like I was screaming and my face is wet with tears. Then I hear someone run into the room. I look over thinking it's Natalie come back to kill me, but it's not it's just Valerie. Then just like that I'm sobbing like a baby, she comes running next to the bed, climbs onto of the covers and hugs me. That just makes sob harder. We just sit there for while, me sobbing in her arms and her sitting there cradling me telling me it going to be alright. Then she asks me if I want her to stay with me tonight. I nod and she crawls into the covers, cuddles into my chest and wraps her arms around me and we fell asleep right away.

The next day.

I wake up and stretch and find Valerie still curled into my chest. I shake her lightly to wake her.

"Morning Sleeping Beauty," I say smiling down on her, realizing just how beautiful she really is.

"Morning,"she replies yawning. Then she sniffs the air and bolts downstairs. I follow quickly to find her mom making waffles.

"You guys go upstairs shower and change and then come back down and eat. Then Val drive you guys to school. Justin you go to Franklin High right?"

"Yeah I do,"

"Ok good you can borrow some of Brandon's old clothes again and Val will show you were the bathroom is so you can shower."

"Ok thanks."

"No problem Justin," she replies smiling "Now get upstairs! You only have an hour to get ready."

"Yes Ma'am!" Valerie and I said in unison then we race upstairs.

"Ok, clothes are in the dresser, and the bathroom is in that door over there," Valerie says pointing at everything "First one downstairs gets a cupcake!" she yells running out the door. I really wanted a cupcake so a went to the dresser grabbed a pair of grey skinny jeans, a white v-neck shirt and a black hoodie. I looked in the closet and find some black Supras that are my size. Then I jumped in the shower and well did what you usually do in a shower, got out changed, fixed my hair, and ran downstairs to find Valerie wearing this: .com/school/set?id=34060116 sitting on the counter with a cupcake stuffed in her mouth.

"I wum!" she said trying to smile.

"Valerie Nicole Hart! Do not talk with your mouth full it's rude!" Her mom scolded. Valerie swallowed what was in her mouth and said,

"Sorry Mother."

"It's ok just don't do it again. What do you like on your waffles Justin?" she asked me.

"Um, butter, syrup, and strawberries if you have any please," I answered.

"Ok, Val what do you want? Chocolate syrup and strawberries?"

"Yuppers, Mommy!" she said then she got off the counter skipped over to me grabbed my hand and pulled me over to the table and sits, patting the seat next to her. I seat and her mom sets our breakfast in front of us.

"So you don't like syrup?" I asked looking at her plate.

"No, I love syrup! I'm just allergic to it, my throat closes up and I can't breath."

"Oh I see," We ate or breakfast in silence then Val grabbed her bookbag and we headed out the door to her white Bug (the car). We hop in and drive to school.

"Hey Justin, can I ask you a question?" she asked suddenly.

"Sure, what is it?"

"Um, why were you screaming last night?"

"Uh, I was having a nightmare. My ex, Natalie, killed my family and then killed me."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

"Why are you sorry? It's not like it was you trying to kill me. Plus it was just a dream."

"I don't know. I just kinda feel like it's my fault for some reason. But I'm always like that."

"I see, hey I just realized we have every class together."

"Sweet." Once we got there I saw Natalie: .com/cgi/set?id=34087143 wearing this: .com/cgi/set?id=34495422 making out with Jake her new, or should I say old boyfriend. I almost walked over there to say or do something but before I could Valerie took my hand and started walking inside the school, pulling me along with her. Once we got inside she let go, but I took it again.

"Justin what are you doing?" she asked looking confused.

"If you don't hold on to me I might go back out there and do something I will regret," I repiled.

"Oh, ok. Well let's go to math then." With that said we walked hand in hand to math.
