Chapter 6

“Drew! Come on Drew, open up please!” Justin had been pounding on my bedroom door since he and my brother had gotten home from practice, so about two hours now. Apparently he thinks that if he just continues to pound on my door nonstop that at some point I will give in and talk to him. There is no way that I will give in because I know for a fact that the only reason he is actually still trying to get me to come out is because he believes that it is his fault, not that he truly cares or not if I am okay.

“Go away!” I screamed at the door, as more tears screamed their way down my face. I stood up from where I had been sitting down on my bed and walked over to my door. Weather I liked it or not, dinner would be just about ready and there is no way that I am willing to miss it. Food is always my favorite thing in the world and I wouldn’t miss it for the world, no matter how angry or upset I am at life.  I looked into the mirror hanging on my door quickly just to see how bad I looked from crying. My makeup had managed to run down my face, and my eyes were puffy red. I also took notice of the fact that I had still yet to take the time to change out of Justin’s uniform and back into some of my regular clothing.

“Drew please! Just come out so we know that you are alright. I could hear you crying for the past two hours, we need to know that you are okay. Plus dinner is almost ready and you need to eat. Please Drew, just please.” Justin pleaded. You could hear the sadness showing through as his voice cracked from being over whelmed. Not wanting to wait any longer for the food I have been dying for, I opened my door and came face to face with a crying Justin. He had tears falling as well, and bright red eyes. I barely managed time to even think before I was wrapped in one of the most warming hugs I have ever had. “I am sorry, I didn’t mean to make you cry” He called out as he tightened his arms around me.

As his arms snaked their way around my waist I got a weird feeling of comfort. Usually whenever he hugs me it’s just annoy me, but this time it was sincere and made me feel safe. I tried to push away the urge that was arriving to melt into his arms, but it was no use. I needed this hug and he was the one that was there and willing to give it. I finally gave in and just melted into them as I started to cry once again. I could feel his arm move up to the middle of my back and he began to rub smoothing circles to try and get me to calm down. The smell of his cologne was filling up my nose as I buried my head into the crook of his neck. I really hate to admit it, but the smell of his cologne was heaven.

 “What is going on here?” I let out a huge squeal as I jumped away from Justin, throwing my hands in the air as if that were to do anything. I spun around and came face to face with Logan. He had a phone in his hand and a smirk plastered on his face. “Didn’t mean to interrupt, no go ahead and continue. Don’t mind me.” He laughed as he turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

“Are you okay?” Justin asked as he pulled me back into a bone crushing hug. I pushed him away as I stared at him. His perfect brown hair shining from the light, the sparkle in his eye as he started right back. It almost seemed as if he actually cares, but I know Justin and there is no way in hell that he could actually care. I bet that as soon as we got to the kitchen table he would start picking on me and start a fight again. He is a person who doesn’t care about any one’s feelings. Once that type a person, always that type of person.

“Just stop.” I scolded as I turned around and tried to leave the conversation. He managed to grab my arm and yank it back, causing me to stumble forward a little.

“Stop what Drew?”

“This! Pretending to care and crap. Just stop. I know you really don’t care so stop pretending!” I screamed as tears threatened to fall once again.

“Drew I have always cared and I still do now. I may not have acted like it but I always have. I have never once not cared Drew. I care a lot about you, and I want to make sure that you are okay!” He yelled right back, as he tried to take a step forward closer to me.

“You are Justin Carter for god sakes; there is no way in hell that you actually care. You the guy that plays with every girl’s feelings and throw out heart breaks like you’re the quarter back of the football team. You make fun of girls because they have feelings Justin, so yes I know for a fact that you are just pretending to care.”

 I stormed out of the hallway and left a shocked to the bone Justin standing there to gather all of his thoughts. When I reached the kitchen my mom and Logan were already sitting at the table and staring at me with worried faces.

“What was that all about? Not even five minutes ago you guys were all lovey dovey in the hallway and now there is full blown yelling. I thought you guys were good?” Logan questioned as he tried to burn a whole through my head with his staring. Before I could even get a word come out of my mouth Justin came in from behind me, grabbed his coat, and left with a slam of the door.

I looked over at Logan for a split second before looking back over at the door again. Just has never one stormed out of our house, ever. When he gets mad he usually just stays in Logan’s room until he cools down and then he is good again, but never has he walked out. Logan rose up from the chair he was sitting in and charged out the door after grabbing his keys.

“Are you okay Drew? Logan had said that a lot has happened today. Why don’t you sit down and we can talk about it for a little bit?” Mom asked as she handed me my plate that now had food covering it. I nodded my head as I took a seat in my usual spot and got comfortable before starting.

“It started out weird mom, Justin didn’t like the shirt that I was wearing so he got Logan to go and make me change. That made me late to class earning a detention, that I didn’t deserve. It was all Justin’s fault that I was even late, and I get punished? Mom that is so unfair. Anyways then during lunch Justin made a huge scene in front of the whole cafeteria on saying how this morning I apparently looked like a whore. I barley had any skin showing, okay made it was a little low cut, but come on! I managed to get away from him and go hide in the bathroom, but as I was walking to my next class everyone kept staring at me. You know how self-conscious I am when people stare at me, so I got upset and ran the baseball fields. Abbey came down there and tried to make me feel better but she brought up Blake. How could my best friend bring up Blake at a time like that? She knows exactly what happened between us. On top of all that, Justin pretending to care is the worst of all.” I cried out.

“Honey, I think you got something wrong. Justin doesn’t pretend to care. He really does care about you. You know exactly how mad he was when he found out what Blake did to you, he wanted to kill him even more than Logan did. I think the reason Justin ran out just now, is because he does care. He’s a really sweet boy, and I think you should give him a chance.” Mom explained as she shrugged, and filled her mouth with even more food.

A/N: I will be updating more as of now, sorry for the long break! (Sorry for any mistakes)
