Noon

 

I sat in the farthest back seats with Justin on my right and Ari on my left. We were ordering for all of these people and the people from the drive-thru of wherever we were, were not happy… I leaned my head on Justin’s shoulder and tried to just forget everything that happened earlier, but somehow it just kept coming back up somehow. I could tell that Justin was trying to change the subject every time to make sure I didn’t get upset. He was the best boyfriend ever hands down.

“Do you remember the first day we met?” Justin asked as he scrolled through something on his phone with his free hand, the other holding mine with our fingers intertwined.

“Yeah, why?”

“Well I don’t remember exactly what you said but you said that seeing you’re not famous and all of that, that you can't do what you want. Well you are famous now pretty much.” Justin pointed out.

He held up his phone and I looked at the video on my account that we uploaded the previous night. It had over 3 million views already! I could hardly believe it, I almost choked on a fry I stole from Aris breakfast.

“Oh my god…” I said quietly. Although I was surprised about the views, I was still thinking about what Justin had just said. I pushed his phone down away from me and looked into his eyes. “Justin, I don’t care about the fame, that’s not what I came into this relationship for, I came for you.”

He smiled and kissed my forehead. I sat back in my seat and drank my milkshake and laughed and talked with everyone else. I like when we all just chilled out and had fun, unlike… well you know what happened. We got back to Ashley’s house but soon enough, Justin and I left and headed back to our hotel. We dropped Ari off at the airport and I was sad to see her go but I knew I had to eventually. Hopefully I'd see her sooner rather than later. When we got back to the hotel, I felt a relief that I got to lay down and not think for a minute.

Peacefulness. Blissfulness. It was perfect while it lasted. I was the one who ended it though, so I could only blame myself. I shot my eyes open and turned on my side to look at Justin.

“But I do kinda want to put a video of my birthday on YouTube... And maybe a few others.” I said quietly.

He laughed and smiled at me, “Well, what are you waiting for.”

I jumped off of the bed and grabbed my laptop before sitting back down, leaning against the headboard. Justin helped me edit a short video of my birthday and we really did a good job.

“Aren’t you gonna put like a beginning where you introduce yourself and stuff? That’s what all of the other YouTubers do.” Justin asked.

“I’m not a YouTuber.” I laughed. “But I guess, Mr. Professional.”

I shrugged and recorded and small clip of me just introducing myself and telling a few things about myself before I cut it off and put the video in. The video really turned out and Justin seemed happier than me. I had a feeling that this was going to develop into something…

“You should start making videos, you’re good at it.” Justin suggested.

“I’ll consider it… but for now I just wanna focus on the good things in life.” I closed my laptop and gently placed it into the suitcase on the side of the bed. I laid back with Justin and stared into his eyes. “Like this, this is one of the good things.”

I pressed my lips against his and he smiled in between each kiss. I couldn’t help but giggle myself and mess around with him. I was genuinely happy.

11:00am

 

My eyes shot open and I felt energized as soon as I woke up. I pulled the familiar black covers back and did my usual morning routine. I brushed my teeth and left my hair down and wavy. I just threw on an outfit to wear seeing I was only going to be sitting around and watching. I put on a little make-up and rushed downstairs; I wanted to be there to be the first one to see what’s going down. I slipped on some shoes and flew out of the door with the keys in my hand.

I shut the garage behind me and pulled out of the driveway. I hadn’t driven in a while so I had to get the hang of this again. I went to shift gears and when I looked out of my window, my eyes collided with my dad’s. I pulled my sunglasses down from my head and put them on to cover my eyes. I zoomed down the street to get away from him and I was off to Caribou.

I ordered my favorite drink, and Justin’s favorite drink; well, one of his favorite drinks. He liked everything so it was easy to order for him and for him to still be pleased. I set them in the cup holders and let the GPS guide me to my destination. When I pulled up to the shoot, I parked in next to Justin’s trailer and looked around. There were people everywhere, but I only searched for Justin. When I stepped out of the car, I grabbed both of our drinks and walked towards the only person I knew; Fredo, who was sitting under a tent sipping on a coffee cup, it appeared as.

“Fredo!” I said as I approached him. I hadn’t seen him in about a week since we were in Florida.

“(YN), how are you?” he asked as he hugged me as best he could.

“Could be better, but I’m good! Do you know where Justin is?”

“He is currently over there shooting a scene.”

He turned and pointed over to Justin who was dressed in all black with gold shoes. His hair was slicked up like he had been wearing it usually. I had a feeling he was going to keep his hair like this from now on, it looked well on him anyways. Anything did, actually. He was filming the rest of his video today so I came to see the last of it as a surprise.

The music played in the background as he leaned against a car and sang the words to a girl leaning against him. Being his girlfriend, I obviously felt jealous… very jealous… but I just kept repeating the phrase ‘it’s just a music video’ over and over in my head. Because it was and this girl meant nothing to him. She was so gorgeous though… I just sighed and sat next to Fredo, patiently waiting for him to get a break.

“Alright, take five!” the director yelled.

Everyone seemed to chill out immediately and walk away to get a drink. Justin had no idea that I was here so I was glad to surprise him. He walked over to us slowly and I stood up, causing him to smile widely.

“Babe,” he said as he grabbed my and picked me up off of my feet, “You came.”

“Of course I did, and better yet, I brought Caribou.”

The smile on his face widened just a bit more as he spotted the cup. I just laughed and he set me back down on my feet. He took my spot next to Fredo so I just sat on his lap and drank my Frappuccino.

I pulled out my phone and snapped a picture of us together including Fredo. Yup, that was going on Instagram, it was actually a really cute picture of us three.

Justin left to go get touched up before shooting the rest of the video. It surprisingly didn’t take as long as I thought it would. I just sat there waiting but I wasn’t bored because I talked to everyone and took pictures and just made myself at home on set. I posted the picture on Insta saying on the set of #boyfriend #swag and it attracted a lot of attention.

When the shoot was over, Justin insisted we stopped by the studio so that I could hear his album. I was dead tired, but I agreed because I knew that this album meant everything to him. We arrived at the studio and held hands as we walked inside.

“Come on, come on!” Justin said as he dragged me down the hall.

He was like a little kid in a store who saw something that he liked. It was adorable and it woke me up a little bit more. We walked into the studio with Fredo and a few other people.

“Hey Justin, it’s kinda late, why don’t you just listen to it at home?” Fredo suggested.

I thought Justin would be upset, but he actually embraced the idea and agreed. Whatever made him happy, made me happy. We took a personal copy home and Justin was more the excited.

He drove us home and it was actually a quiet drive. Before anything, we laid in bed and talked about the small things, I even told him that I was a bit jealous of the girl that was the lead in his music video.

“You’re the only one for me and that’s not going to change, so you don’t have to worry.” Justin reassured me.

I smiled and snuggled my head into the crook of his neck. He started tickling me and I couldn’t help but push away from him but still get pulled back in.

“Are you ready for this?” Justin asked as he rushed to put the CD in the computer.

He downloaded the music onto his, well my iTunes account and we waited while it loaded. It got done quickly and Justin sat back and pressed play. The first song was called All Around the World, featuring Ludacris. It was about his beliebers, Justin told me. Next, Boyfriend, and then As Long As You Love Me.

“I think I want a music video for this one, I have an idea in mind.” Justin said as the song played.

“What would that be? This could have multiple messages, but it’s your choice. I'm thinking... something where the girl is just trying to fit in and you're trying to help her and you fall in love.” I gave a vast idea.

Justin put his hand under me and pulled me closer to him as we listened together. He looked like he was considering my idea, but I figured he had a better one. He looked lost in his thoughts as he pictured the idea for his version of the music video.

“You’ll find out eventually.” Justin said as he smiled to himself.

“Justin! I wanna know!” I said as I sat up halfway, my hair falling onto his upper arm.

“It’s a secret, and I want it to be a surprise.” Justin made a pouty lip.

“Fine.” I laid back down. I smiled to myself, thinking about all of the things it could be about. I had no idea what it could be about, I didn’t have any clue at all.

We listened to mostly the rest of the album but we didn’t finish the last few songs. I was dozing off and so was Justin, so I knew I’d start thinking about things like I usually did at night. Suddenly, pictures started flashing in my mind, of earlier today. Should I tell Justin what happened? It’s not that big of a deal, I thought, but I bet he’d like to know. And plus, he’s sleepy, he probably won’t remember tomorrow anyways.

“I saw my dad today.” I whispered quietly.

Justin shifted under me and I could tell that he felt uneasy. I heard him take a deep breath but I didn’t bother looking up at his face, I was too scared to. He was probably upset about it. He had been blaming himself for me not being able to have a dad anymore since the whole incident, and it sucked because it really wasn’t his fault.

“He was getting the mail and- well you know. I left right away to come see you anyways.” I took a long pause but I had to continue speaking. “But can you promise me something?” I asked.

“What?” he quietly replied. Well I knew that he was listening now.

“Please don’t cross paths with him. I just don’t want either of you getting hurt.”

Justin swallowed but this time I was looking into his eyes. I felt like justin would hurt my dad, but I honestly had no idea what kind of power my dad held. He stared blankly away and I waited for a sweet reply like ‘I won’t babe, I know that you’re hurt so don’t worry’. I figured he would say that he wouldn’t cross paths with him, because that’s what I wanted especially in this situation, but he didn’t. The words that came out of his mouth scared and infuriated me. I wasn’t too happy with him after he said it and I wasn’t sure what to think anymore. I scooted back to my side of the bed and turned away so that he couldn’t see that I was mad. Justin reached and turned off the lamp, signaling that it was definitely time to end this conversation and go to bed.I let him cuddle up behind me but it just wasn’t right; I was pissed and he didn’t know, so I fell asleep that way. They say not to do that, go to sleep mad, but when your life is this fucked up it’s hard not to. Those three words that echoed my mind aimlessly, they damaged me, somehow, in an unexplainable way.

“I can’t promise.”

Chapter 9:

Friday, April 13th, 2012

11:00am

 

I opened my eyes and squinted to the light shining through the curtains. I glanced around to see that everyone was passed out in the living room. I was on the floor along with six other people including Ari and Fredo. Justin, as I saw, was peacefully passed out on the couch with his beanie pulled down in front of his face. Wow, last night was pretty crazy, but it was the best birthday I’d ever had.

I looked around for Ashley to see if she was awake, but she wasn’t in the room. I scratched my head, my hair sticking in every direction possible. I stood up, stretched, and just as I was going to get a glass of water, Ashley walked in the room with a gloomy look upon her. She took a deep breath and rubbed her arm with the opposite hand innocently.

“Hey, what are you-“

My voice faded out when I saw two police waiting patiently in the doorway. She stared at me and I could tell that she was more confused than I was. I walked towards her and grabbed both of her arms, stabling her so that I could speak clearly to her.

“Why are the police here?” I whispered making sure not to wake anyone else and startle them.

“They’re here f-for you.” She barely made out her words.

My heart dropped and so did my jaw, my lips now quivering. I brushed passed her and walked over to the police with a sad smile placed upon my face. I rubbed my arms from being a bit cold as I stood in front of them, their faces stern and determined.

“Can I help you?” I asked quietly.

“(YN) (YLN)? We’re glad to see you. Your dad put you as a missing child and we were obligated to come find you and bring you home. We have a flight in line for you but we need to leave soon because your dad-“

“What?!” I practically yelled. “I’m 18, he can’t do this, I’m of legal age.” I defended myself.

“Listen, we aren’t trying to be the bad guys here but you ran away when you were 17 and by law, we have to bring you home to your parents. After that, you can leave wherever you want without these troubles.” The cop explained to me.

I swallowed hard and tried to think of a way out of this. “Why doesn’t my dad just come here? He can just see me here if that’s what he wants because I’m not leaving and you can’t make me.”

They both glared at each other before doing the same to me. I folded my arms across my chest to make a point. Legally, they couldn’t take me because I was of legal age to care for myself, to be independent. Hey, studying in high school for those tests paid off in the long run.

“Well, you’re dad is here right now, waiting at the airport for you.”

I threw my head back and mouthed ‘oh my god’. I couldn’t believe my dad would go this far to keep me away from Justin. He needed to understand that I really liked Justin and that we weren’t being separated again.

“He can come here if he wants to see me that bad.” I said with an attitude.

One of the police grabbed his walkie-talkie type thingy and spoke into it saying numbers and letters and mumbling. I just rolled my eyes. Great, now what was going to happen to me?

“Alright miss, your dad is on his way here. We will leave you to these personal matters.”

I smiled in a bitchy way and practically shoved them out of the door and shut it behind me quickly. I was breathing fast and Ashley was staring at me and shaking her head.

“What did you do?” she said quietly.

“Let me explain things.”

We sat in the kitchen together and I finally got that glass of water. Long story short, I told her that my dad hated Justin and I wanted to be with Justin so I left with him. The details weren’t needed right now.

“You’re so fucking crazy.” She said as she laughed quietly. She leaned over and hugged me and I was really surprised. “This is why we’re friends.”

I laughed quietly and we stood in the kitchen laughing together until we heard a loud knock on the front door. My eyes shot to hers and hers shot to mine. She could probably see the fear in my eyes, I was so scared of what my dad would say to me. I slowly made my way to the door, hearing even more knocks. They didn’t sound angry, but you never know with my deceiving dad. I opened the door and stood before him, trying to act as unintimidated as possible.

“Dad.” My voice cracked.

He stared me in the eyes and when I looked in his, I felt as if I could see disappointment in his eyes. I already felt tears coming and he hadn’t even spoken yet.

“You… I can’t believe that you’d do such a thing. Run away!? Are you fucking crazy!?” He raised his voice with every sentence following. I blinked away my tears and tried to appear as strong as I could in front of him. “You could’ve gotten yourself killed!”
“But I didn’t I-”

“But you could’ve! All because of a boy! I’m so disappointed in you! I really thought that you’d make something of yourself, (YN). Us (YLN)’s don’t do this kind of shit. You must take after your mom’s side of the family, you’re a fuckup like the rest of them.”

I glanced over to Ashley who I could tell was longing to say something but she was scared. The tears filled my eyes more quickly now and I felt my heart cracking more and more into little unfixable pieces. I breathed out slowly and parted my lips, ready to yell back, right before I was interrupted again.

“What the fuck is he doing here?”

My dad’s jaw tightened along with the rest of his features. I turned to look behind me to see Justin standing there glaring towards my dad. I knew this wasn’t going to end well.

“Please, Justin don’t-“

“At least I’ve been there for her, unlike her shitty ass dad who missed out on her whole life.” Justin said as he took a step forward.

“Oh and what? You’ve known her for a full week? You’re pathetic.” My dad quickly replied.

Both of their voices started getting louder and louder with each word. I was starting to feel scared for both of their safety and I wish those officers hadn’t left no matter how much I hated them.

“You know nothing about her or us.” Justin’s grinded his teeth together.

“Us? There is no us, and when I’m done, there’ll be no you.”

My automatic reaction took over and I lunged at Justin, pushing him back and trying my best to hold him. He was much stronger than me so I can’t say I really helped, but I held him back long enough for more people to help. He struggled in Fredo’s grip and I already started crying; like I said before, this was not going to end well.

“Let the little pussy fight.” My dad urged.

I walked over to my dad and stood just feet apart. “You need to stop!” I yelled in his face.

He barely seemed to notice me, his eyes were locked with Justin’s. I looked from Justin to my dad and it was so hard to see this happening with me in the middle of it. I just wanted this all to end, and I knew that it was going to soon.

“Fine, I’ll stop.” My dad said, letting a very tiny wave of relief overcome my body. He looked down and unclenched his fists. I was glad to see this dying down somewhat. Justin was let go of his hold but he still looked like he was going to pounce on my dad any second. I stared into Justin’s eyes and mouthed one word which made Justin stop. He immediately stopped and calmed himself down. I knew that he had a bad anger problem, so this wasn’t going to go well.

“Well, now you’re left with one choice.” My dad said, “Him, or me?”

My hands were shaking and my heart was beating. I couldn’t just chose my boyfriend over my dad, but I couldn’t live a life with my dad without Justin by my side. I closed my eyes tightly and sucked in my tears, leaving suspense in my answer that everyone was waiting for.

I turned to my dad and dropped my hands to my sides, “Do you really love me? As a daughter?”

He let out a little laugh before shaking his head, “I love you more than anything in the world (YN), why would you ask me-“

“Because, dad, you called me a fuckup, a disappointment, a disgrace to our name. Now why was that? Did you do that out of love to?”

My dad was left without words. I knew that he had no way to answer, because all of those things he said about me were true. He really thought that I was the worst thing that had ever happened in his life, and I couldn’t change that.

“I-I hate you!” I yelled towards him.

It seemed to be a reality check by the way he stumbled back like he’d been hit. I ran out of the room, brushing past Justin and the whole group of people. I need to leave, I couldn’t stand to see him anymore. I sat on the couch curled up into a ball, listening to their conversation.

“I think it’s time you leave, Mr. (YLN).” Ari said.

There were a few moments of silence before I heard my dad yell to me. I couldn’t quite understand, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to either. The door slammed and I felt like I heard everyone let out their first breath. I was so focused on what happened, I didn’t even realize what was happening at the moment. Justin held me in his arms tightly and tried to calm me down. I wasn’t sure why I was so upset, I’d never cared for my dad anyways. I guess it was just the fact that I wanted a dad for a while.

I calmed down after soaking all of my sorrowful tears into Justin’s shirt. He didn’t seem to care at all, or even notice. I sat up on my own and everyone shot their eyes over to me. I smiled as best I could and tried to act like things were going to be okay.

“Guys,” my voice cracked one last time, “I’ll be fine. I have all of you, some family, my friends back in my hometown-“

“You still have your mom to.” Fredo added.

That’s right, nobody knew. I looked down and then over to Ari. Ari was the only other person in this room that knew exactly what had happened and what I was thinking.

“Let’s go out to eat guys, get settled and get our minds off of things.” Ari interrupted with a smile on her face.

Justin turned to me and I looked him in the eyes for the first time since the fight earlier. He was trying to unfold the secret that he knew me and Ari were keeping, but he couldn’t put the pieces together. I quickly looked away to avoid him asking any further questions and stood up and smiled again.

“I agree, let’s eat, I’m starving!”

Everyone started smiling again and agreed with going out to eat. At least it would prevent further conversation of this whole mess until later in my life when I’d have to deal with it. I had an odd feeling that it was going to come soon, too soon.

Chapter 8:

Thursday, April 12th, 2012

7:00pm

 

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!”

My face lit up as I walked through the doors of the venue. A single spotlight fell upon me and Justin and everyone in front of us yelled those two single words. I threw my head back and laughed. Everyone was here; the whole Bieber crew, a bunch of celebrities, and… all of my friends. There were well over 200 people here all together. If people from my hometown came, that meant-

“(YN)!”

I turned to see my best friend Ari with her arms open wide. I made my way towards her and hugged her tight, telling her how much I’d missed her and catching up and every little detail of our lives along the way. I greeted many other people and we literally barely got to talk. Eventually, she pulled me to the side and made me stop rushing for once.

“Okay, now tell me… how in the hell did you happen to run into Justin Bieber?!” she yelled over the music.

“It’s complicated…”

I finished the whole story within 5 minutes, shortening the whole thing so that I had time for other things other than conversing with her about Justin.

“OMG, so you ran away!?” she yelled.

“Shh, be quiet about it okay? I’m 18 now though so it really doesn’t matter. I think…”

She rolled her eyes and took my hand, leading me to the dance floor. I ran into a few people who looked fairly familiar, probably because they were celebrities! There were a lot of different famous people here and I was really surprised. It was like a mixture of fame and people from my school, which was pretty crazy to me. I had to take off my heels and go barefoot because they were killing my feet, but that was fine because even in the crowded room, my feet happened to not get stepped on.

“Alright, alright! Everyone quiet down and welcome to the stage, Usher and Justin!”

The crowd all turned their heads to the stage on the opposite side of the large room to see Justin and Usher walking up on the stage. I smiled and Ari turned to me and fangirled a bit herself. I laughed and listened along with everyone else.

“Now, I don’t usually host parties, but tonight was very special. (YN),” as Usher spoke, a spotlight found its way to me and stopped, “You are a beautiful little lady and I’m glad to have you as part of the team. Happy Birthday baby girl!”

The crowd went wild and I blushed. God, Usher just called me baby girl and beautiful! I was fangirling just a bit too hard…

“And, I’d like to add, (YN), it feels like I’ve known you for years and I’d like to, so can I have this dance?”

I stared at Justin in awe as the lights dimmed and the crowd in front of me parted. Ari looked at me with a smirk on her face as she disappeared into the crowd behind me. Justin walked down from the stage and slowly made his way towards me. I smiled and blushed at the same time, wondering what exactly he was doing. He took my hands and pulled my close to him so that our bodies were touching. I put my arms around his neck and he placed his around my waist. The music was slow and peaceful and we swayed back and forth together. It felt so magical, and I knew that this was real. It was all so… real. The crowd never took their eyes off of us and I never took my eyes off of Justin.

“Justin, what are you doing? I thought that you didn’t want anybody to know?” I whispered as I stared up into his eyes.

“I don’t care if anybody knows, but do you?” he asked slowly.

“No but-“

“Then it doesn’t matter.”

I took a deep breath just before Justin leaned down and pressed his lips against mine. It all happened so quickly that it was hard to comprehend. But this kiss felt different than the rest, and it felt like that because everyone was watching and there were even cameras. I pulled away and I could tell that everyone was in shock without even looking at the crowd. Nobody knew, not even the crew or Ari, so this was news.

I heard an eruption of clapping and I dropped my head and laughed. Justin laughed too just before he took my hand in his and spun me around, catching me in his arms immediately after. Soon, the music was back to being upbeat and Justin and I were dancing together still. I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned to see Ari smirking at me.

“You forgot a part of your story.” She laughed.

“Whoops.”

I turned back to Justin and we continued to dance together. It seemed as if we literally danced the night away because it went by so quickly. Most of the people started clearing the building and there were only some left.

“Some friends were wondering if you wanted to go to Ashley’s house tonight.” Justin said as I rested my head on his chest.

“Ashley?”

“Tisdale, you know her right?”

“Of course I know her!” I said excitedly. “And of course I want to go!”

Justin laughed at me and took my hand in his. As we headed out of the building, Justin talked to a few people and told them to meet us at Ashley’s house. I didn’t need to bother with Ari because she already was with Fredo and a few other people so I knew she’d get there somehow.I’m a great friend, right?

We sat in the car in silence and I rested my head on Justin’s shoulder with our fingers intertwined in my lap. Although we were alone, it didn’t matter anymore because we practically just went public, I guess you could say. The only thing people didn’t know was that… we weren’t dating. He’d never asked me and that was that. I was just playing the waiting game now…

“Justin, everyone is going to think we are dating… and you can’t exactly say we aren’t because- well you know!” I giggled slightly.

Justin turned to me and kissed my forehead. I was shorter then him now, only by a few inches, because my heels were currently on the floor.

“Well if I asked you now then it wouldn’t be romantic, now would it?” Justin replied.

I sat up and smiled at him while I shook my head. Sometimes, he tried too hard to make me happy, when all I wanted was to be with him, which did make me happy.

“Justin, honestly, I could give a shit less if you asked me while we were standing in a hot air balloon floating through the clouds or if you asked me while I was in the damn shower. It really doesn’t matter to me as long as you mean it.”

He looked up towards the ceiling of the car like he was thinking. I waited patiently for his answer, which I figured would be dumb like usual. He was just so adorable when he did things like this.

“So I should rent a hot air balloon then?” Justin joked.

I laughed myself and laid my head back on his shoulder. I honestly didn’t care how he asked me, as long as it happened eventually, that was normal right? For me to think that way> Oh well, it was kept to myself anyways.

“I’m kidding,” Justin smiled as he ran his fingers through my hair gently. “Hey (YN), we’re going out, okay?”

I pushed away from him and looked into his eyes. I couldn’t help but giggling to myself a little bit. “What?”

“Is that okay? Did you think I was joking?” Justin said with a serious but jokingly facial expression.

“Yes, and I was hoping not.”

He laughed and puckered his lips. I shook my head and pressed mine against his in an attempt to make him happy. Wow, the way he just asked me was… well definitely unique, and adorable! I couldn’t stop smiling at how he asked- well told me.

We arrived at Ashley’s house and got out of the car for the first time together without flashing lights. It was pretty amazing I gotta admit, to not be in the spotlight like I usually wasn’t. I was expecting Justin to knock on the door or something but nope, he just walked inside, took off his shoes, and made himself at home. I just stood at the door with my arms folded across my chest.

“Justin,” I laughed, “You just-“

“There’s the birthday girl!”
I turned to see Ashley approaching me kindly with open arms. I smiled and hugged her before setting my heels by the door and making myself comfortable, like Justin had. She gave us a mini tour before we made our way to the living room where everyone was just chilling. There were plenty of people; Carlos Pena from BTR, Ari, Fredo, and quite a few other people I didn’t quite recognize.

I fell onto the couch next to Ashley and sighed. It’d been a long night, but I wasn’t tired, I was bored now. And all I wanted to do was get out of this dress and put some comfy clothes on.

“Ashley, can I borrow-“

“Babe, I have stuff for us upstairs already.” Justin smiled as he pointed up.

I loved when he called me ‘babe’ or ‘baby’, it just made me feel so wanted by someone in this lonely world. His smile was just an extra cherry on top that added to my gratefulness to have him.

“Yes? No? Hello?”

I snapped out of my thoughts and looked up at Justin, standing up and smoothing my dress down behind me. Everyone was just rambling on about the party or things relating while Justin and I found our room upstairs. We were currently the only people who hadn’t changed… we took the long way here so we arrived late as usual.

I grabbed my small suitcase and brought it to the bed, setting it down with a thump. Most of my stuff was packed in the other one, but I had suitable stuff in this smaller one too. I picked out a random outfit for pajamas and headed to the bathroom to change. When I walked out, Justin had his arm resting on the doorway beside me and his face was leaning down into mine.

“You know, you can change in front of me.”

“I could… but I don’t.” I said matter-of-factly.

Justin shook his head and we left the room and headed downstairs. Everyone was dancing and messing around, I swore some of them had at least a buzz going tonight, they were obviously having a good time. I sat down next to Justin and looked at the outfit he’d changed into. He was wearing a t-shirt with sweats and a beanie. I smiled and kept my thoughts to myself.

“Guys!” Carlos yelled over everyone. We all got silent and looked at him like he was crazy, probably because he was acting that way. “I have an idea to have some fun.”

The next thing I knew, I had sunglasses on and the song Call Me Maybe was playing. We started off with just nodding our heads and keeping it simple before it turned into a complete dance party. At one point, we were dancing to the chorus and just rocking out, and then the beat of the music slowed down and we all crowded around the camera as Ashley mouthed the words.

“It’s hard to look right, at you baby!” she said slowly.

I looked to Justin on the other side and before I knew it, we were both leaning in. Justin before the kiss, Ashley broke between us and we all laughed. We continued to film the rest even though we had no idea why we were doing this.

At the end of the video, I literally fell onto the floor and just laid down to catch my breath from laughing and dancing so much. Everyone crowded back into the living room and Carlos had his laptop to edit the video. We all agreed on it being edited and uploaded to YouTube.

“Well that’s it! Now who has a YouTube account to upload this to?” Carlos asked as he looked around tiredly.

“I do.” I said raising my hand as if I were in class.

“Type it in.”

He handed over his laptop and I put in all of my info and did everything to upload the video. “And… it’s uploaded!” I yelled when the video finished.

We all turned off the lights and sat around a laptop and watched our finished masterpiece. Laughs, kisses, and memories were shared. We all tweeted about it, so I figured it’d get quite a few views by morning. I was too lazy to check, so I just tweeted a few times and left it at that.

Chapter 7:

11:00am

“WAKE UP! WAKE UP! TIME TO GET UP!”

This was such a weird dream- wait, this wasn’t a dream. I groaned and pulled the covers over my head to block out the sunlight and that annoying yelling. Less than a minute later, the covers were whipped off of my body and I turned over angrily to see Justin laughing. His hair fell in front of his face and he flipped it to the side. He was still in his pajamas from last night, so he obviously hadn’t changed just yet. He seemed to be having such a jolly time, now wasn’t he? Alfredo, well Fredo I guess, was laughing too as he held his camera, recording all of this.

“Justin.” I groaned and mumbled as I covered my face with a pillow.

“It’s your birthday! Get up!” Justin demanded.

I didn’t move a bit but I smiled under the pillow. He was so excited, even more excited for my birthday then I was. I closed my eyes but they shot open when I felt a tug on my feet. I threw the pillow at Justin and pleaded for him to not drag me off of the bed.

“Justin please no! I’m up! I’m getting up!”

He stopped and I sat up reluctantly. Justin and Fredo laughed at me and I stood up and stretched my arms above my head.
“Happy Birthday!” they yelled together.

I smiled and shook my head. Fredo dropped the camera to his side and gave me a big hug before I turned to Justin.

“Was this really necessary?” I said.

“Hm, yeah, it was.” Justin laughed.

I left the room and started a shower. I took a long shower, scrubbing my body and making sure I smelt perfect for today. I stepped out, dried off, and threw on some sweats and a tank top for now. This damn hotel was cold!

I walked out of the room and saw Justin sitting on the side of the bed watching me closely. Fredo had already left (luckily) so now we were alone. I crawled up behind Justin and dangled my arms over his shoulders. He turned his head and licked his lips before pressing them against mine. I closed my eyes in pleasure and when he pulled away, I bit my lip.

“Ready?” Justin said.

“Where are we going?”

“We aren’t going anywhere. You are going with my mom to pick out an outfit for tonight. It has to be perfect, everything does.”

Before I could reply, Justin grabbed my legs from behind my thighs and pulled them forward, around his waist. I was hoisted into the air and we walked forward toward the hotel door. I grabbed a room key and we were off down the hall.

“You don’t have to give me a piggy-back ride you know, I can walk.” I said.

“Birthday girls don’t walk.”

I smiled and held onto him tighter. He started running down the hall and I laughed a little too loudly. We came to a quick stop towards the end of the hall and I knocked on the door because Justin couldn’t. It flung open within a minute and Pattie stood before the both of us. I smiled and waved at her and she seemed cheery this morning too.

“There’s the birthday girl! Happy Birthday honey, come in.” she said.

She kissed Justin on the cheek, we walked in, and Justin let go of me and dropped me on a bed. I leaned back on my arms and looked Pattie’s way.

“You and I are going shopping!” she yelled as she threw her hands up in the air.

I smiled widely before turning to Justin, “What are you gonna do?”

“I have to run some errands of my own.” He said as he pulled up his sweats just below his waistline.

“Well, we should probably leave now if we want to catch something to eat.” Pattie said as she grabbed her purse.

I stood up and we walked to the door together. I didn’t even have a purse, I just kept my phone in my pocket and a few other necessities like lip gloss and a pocket mirror I even that. I was kinda too lazy to anyways.

“Don’t have too much fun.” I yelled behind me to Justin who took off the opposite way of us back to our room.

He winked and smiled at me before turning back around. I followed Pattie to the elevator and downstairs to the lobby of the huge hotel. It was very luxurious in here, I could have settled for something that wasn’t five star if I weren’t with Justin.

“Okay, just follow me and don’t answer questions.” Pattie said before she opened the doors.

I obeyed her words and followed close behind like I had been the whole time. Of course, paparazzis crowded outside. They yelled ‘Pattie!’ and surprisingly, they were yelling my name too… I just kept my head down and followed Pattie to her black SUV. It was very roomy and spacious on the inside, I liked it. It was definitely a change from Justin’s low-riding chrome-colored Ferrari, that’s for sure. We pulled out of the lot and slowly drove down the crowded-with-fans road. Eventually, we hit the highway and we were off to some place Pattie was taking us.

“So, how are you liking being in the spotlight?” Pattie said as we took an exit.

“It’s not much different, I guess. Just getting stalked by fans everywhere I go and plenty of more people following me and liking my pictures on social networking sites. Scratch that, it’s really different.” I laughed.

“Yeah, sometimes it’s fun but sometimes it’s not. You’ll get used to it, don’t worry honey.”

She smiled at me as we stopped at a stoplight. I smiled back and grabbed my phone, clicking the camera button. I turned to Pattie and we took a quick picture together before I posted it on Insta with the caption: shopping with the one and only(: @pattiemallette thanks for the birthday wishes everyone!

"So, do you wanna tell me about you and Justin? I mean obviously something's going on!" Pattie said as she took her eyes off of the road for a few seconds before turning back.

"I-Well-"

“And we are here!” Pattie said as she pulled into a parking spot.

I looked out of the window at a little outlet mall. It was small, but it sure had a lot of different stores. I was glad she interrupted me. It was like a life saver because I didn't want to lie to his mom, but I didn't want to tell her either.

We walked down the sidewalk aimlessly before stopping into an unfamiliar store that Pattie insisted on. She studied my features for only a minute before she took off to find the perfect thing for me to wear. I tried keeping up with her, but she was pretty fast. She was probably my favorite person I’d met here yet, well actually, it was hard to choose.

“This!” She said holding up a dress.

I took it out of her hands and looked at it, “Is a dress really necessary?”

“You’re kidding right? Your party is one of the most talked about parties in the US within the past two days, everyone’s going, and you need to look better than them all.”

I laughed and shook my head. Pattie was more like a best friend than my boyfr- Justin’s mom. She shoved me all the way to the fitting rooms and I went into one right away. I changed and looked at myself in the mirror. The simplicity of the dress made it beautiful. Either she had good luck, or she was just amazing with fashion because this dress looked really good on me. I stepped out of the room with a stride and Pattie covered her mouth with her hands before jumping up and hugging me.

“You look so perfect! This is the dress then?”
I nodded and smiled towards her and we jumped up and down together. I changed quickly and we bought the dress and rushed out of the store to the next one to get shoes and accessories. We finally finished around 5:00pm and we were both longing to sit downsince we hadn’t in 5 hours. We left the outlet mall and headed back to the hotel to relax. I left Pattie’s with my bags and headed to my room where I slipped my shoes off and fell onto the bed in tiredness. Just as I went to reach for my phone, the door flung open and I jumped up.

“Justin!” I said excitedly.

I got up and ran towards him. He grabbed me and picked me up off of the ground laughing. He held his arms around me as I wrapped my legs around his waist. I smiled and gave him a quick peck on the lips before he set me down.

“Someone’s happy to see me.” He laughed again.

“Well yeah, I just got done shopping with your mom.”

My voice faded out as I saw Pattie walk in a minute later. I smiled and she did the same back before brushing past us to go set things up for us to get ready.

“You two make me laugh.” Justin said. “But as soon as you’re done getting ready, I’ll be here to pick you up and bring you to your party.”

“Alright!” I said excitedly.

I wasn’t that tired anymore after seeing Justin, he just made me so happy and I was glad to get to spend even just minutes with him. I wouldn’t even be able to show any PDA with him after that, so I cherished it.

I went into the bathroom after shutting the door behind Justin and sat down so Pattie could curl my hair. I felt like such a princess, everyone was treating me like royalty. I definitely loved the feeling and the atmosphere, but it was all so new. I never usually wore dresses and I definitely never wore heels. This was going to be a new experience for me for sure. I’d never spent a birthday without my best friend from my home town, Arianna, so I kinda felt odd in general from that. Well, I guess there were a lot of firsts’ in the past week for me.

The dress flared out when I spun around in the mirror. This whole outfit was just gorgeous. A huge smile was on my face and even Pattie’s; she looked proud like an artist finishing a masterpiece. I hugged her tightly and she was much shorter than me with these heels on.

“Thank you again Pattie, for all of this.” I said.

“It’s really my pleasure, now I think someone’s waiting for you.”

Her eyes shot behind me and I turned to see Justin standing by the door. He was in a completely different outfit and he stood with a smile on his face. He licked his lips and shook his head in disbelief. It was hard not to just run up to him and kiss him, but I held back my urges. I walked slowly up to him and hugged him. I was about a fourth of an inch taller than him now, which was pretty funny.

“You look beautiful.” He whispered.

“Why thank you.” I accepted his compliment.

He laughed and held out his arm. I hooked my arm with his extended arm and we walked out of the room together. Of course, there were paparazzis outside the hotel, but we did an okay job of avoiding them. We sat in the car alone and it took me a few seconds and a kiss to realize it.

“Justin, I can’t believe only a week ago you almost ran me over with your car.” I giggled.

“I know, it’s amazing we’ve made it this far.” He joked.

We arrived at the party more quickly than I thought we would and opened the car door to flashes and flashes everywhere. But this time, Justin stepped out first and turned to help me. I bit my lip before stepping out of the car and using his hand to stable myself. We hooked arms in an orderly manner once again and walked inside slowly, embracing the yelling of questions and little snaps everywhere. Now this was different, even for Justin.
