7 Things~ *Short Story* {8/14} *His Body*

8/14

*His Body*

It's been two years and I havent left Texas. I decided it's one of the last things I should try and do because it means there's a chance I might see him around and I don't know that my heart could take another run in with him. I rolled over in my bed as I looked at the clock.

2am.

I sighed as I tried to let my subconscious take over my head.

But I had tried a million times.

Maybe a million and one times was what I needed..

-----DREAM-----

I was at a red carpet premiere with Justin and we were happy. It was before I got sick and I was able to go. It was the grammys. I smiled to myself as Justin wrapped his arm around my waist. I looked up at him as he leaned in, pressing his lips to mine for a second as cameras got pictures.

I didn't care though.

I was with Justin.

That's all that mattered to me.

“Its okay, babe,” He would whisper in my ear, making me smile, “Just wait until all the cameras go away..”

I smiled, pushing him away from me, grabbing his hand as we walked into the premiere.

About two hours later, we left the premiere, hand in hand as we got into the limo that brought us here. I sat next to Justin in the back seat of the limo, biting my lip as I looked over at Justin. Before I knew what was happening, I was climbing onto his lap, kissing him deeply, not caring what happened outside the limo. He kept his hands on my hips, holding me closer as he kissed me. I ran my hands through his hair, kissing him as I ran my hands down his chest through his shirt as I kissed him.

It was weird because I felt it actually happen outside of my dream, but he wasn't here. I stripped his shirt off his body, running my hands up and down his chest as we kissed.

“Selena?”

“Selena?”

“Selena Marie?”

---END OF DREAM---

I rolled over in bed, looking over at my bedroom door as my mom was standing there.

“Yes mother?” I asked, rubbing my eyes as she was leaning against the door frame.

“You were talking in your sleep again.” She said, leaning her head against the door frame as I sighed.

“What was I saying?” I asked. I don't know why, but ever since I left Justin, I've been sleep talking and my mom always has a blast telling me what I was saying in my sleep.

“Well, I heard something thats kind of hard to explain.” She said as I raised my eyebrow.

I faintly remember my dream as I shook my head, trying to erase it from my memory.

Mom laughed as she stood up. “Breakfast is made.” She said, walking out of my door as I groaned in protest.

“Fine.” I said, standing up, straightening out my shorts while pulling down my shirt. I sighed, walking into the bathroom. I tried to tame my hair as I looked at my deep brown eyes. My 22-year old brown eyes.

I sighed deciding my wavy hair was hopeless as I walked out of the bathroom and out of my room. I made my way into the kitchen as I smelled moms signature chocolate and peanut butter chip pancakes. I smiled, grabbing a plate with a couple of the delicious pancakes.

“Thanks mom. You know just how to make a girl happy in the mornings.” I said, realizing it sounded a little wrong as I picked up the pancake, dry, taking a bite of it. The chips in the pancakes made it absolutely savory as I enjoyed every bite I took of it.

There was a knock on the door as I looked up at mom, signalling for her to get the door. She sighed, walking away from the pancakes as she opened the door.

“Oh, hey. What are you doing here?” She asked as whoever it was seemed to be keeping quiet. “Oh, I'm sorry. Come on in.” She said, walking inside the house as I watched her walk into the kitchen.

“Mom, who was-?” I didn't even get to finish my thought as I saw a brown haired guy walk in behind my mom. He had pretty brown eyes and he had a special way of carrying himself that made him identifiable anywhere.

“Justin?” I breathed out as he gave me one of his smiles that always used to take my breath away.

“Hey Selena.”
