Justin's pov:
I was driving and Baylee was just playing on her phone. She's being to quite, her stomach must be hurting again. I reach over laying my hand on her thigh making her look at me. I glance to her then back at the road. "You okay?" I ask and she stays silent for a minute. "I'm cramping again, and I'm hungry" she says and I lightly smile, gently caressing her leg with my thumb. "Can I ask you something?" "Mhm" "do you think we'll every be a thing again?" I ask and she shrugs. "I don't know Justin, I like being your friend" she says and I pull my hand back. I didn't even reply to that. It hurt my feelings to be honest with you. "What's wrong?" "Nothing" I lie focusing on the road. "Justin, you know I love you b-" "like a brother or best friend. Not like a lover. You don't feel how I feel for you" I say pulling into the restraint. I unbuckle looking at her. "I- I do care for you the same I just..." "Exactly" I say turning the car off and getting out. She walks beside me and gently grabs my arm holding it as we walk. I love the feeling of her touch. "I like you more than a friend Justin, but I like being your friend. God. I can't even explain it" she says shaking her head. I just nod. I didn't want to say to much because she's to emotional right now. I wouldn't wanna say the wrong thing and her cry. "I just don't understand" I say opening the door for her. Now that I think about it, it's probably what happened on tour. What I got myself into. She still doesn't trust me I bet. "How many?" "Two" I say and the tiny women greets is to our seats. "What to drink?" "Tea" Baylee days and I get the same. "I'll be right back with your drinks" the waitress says walking off. "You don't trust me do you?" "No, I don't" she says quietly, I could barley hear her. I just nod not know what to say. "Maybe eventually I will" "I will earn back your trust Baylee, I know I will" I say and she just nods lightly smiling. "You try so hard for me, I don't see why you would even want to? Your fans don't like me, I don't think" "I will never stop trying for you. And it doesn't matter if my fans like you because I do. They will eventually like you. I know they will. Some of them like you.." "Yeah" she just says looking away from something. I look over and seen Ben and Khalil. Shit. "Yo! Bizzle!" Khalil shouts and I shake my head looking his way. "What's up man?" "Having breakfast" I say keeping it short. He smirks "can we join Yall?" He ask just sitting down without me answering. "Scoot over" Ben says rudely to Baylee. She picks her chair up scooting beside me. "Don't talk to her that way" I say slightly getting pissed. "Bro chill, I didn't mean anything of it?" "I don't care. I said don't talk to her that way" I say shaking my head. I was trying to have a conversation with her and they rudely interrupted. I look to Baylee and see her holding her head down. I gently put my hand on her leg making her look at me and I was about to say anything to her until I heard what Ben attempted to whisper to Khalil. "You best fucking leave now. Before I drag you out of here" I say calmly leaving my hand on Baylee. "You leave" he says laughing. I stand grabbing him by his shirt. I literately drag him out of the restaurant. "Say one more thing like that's about her and so help me to god I'll beat your fucking ass" I say pushing as hard as I can making him fall to the ground. "JUSTIN!" Baylee yells gently grabbing my arm. I take a deep breathe hugging her up in my arms. She stares at me in confusion and I just kiss her head. "What the fuck Justin!" Khalil say and I just walk back into the restaurant like nothing happened. I was actually so beyond pissed. I wasn't going to tell Baylee what he said because it would upset her. That's why I acted as calm as I could. Once we were seated our food come and the Waitress places it in our table. Baylee stands up, about to move her chair but I stop her. "Stay with me" I whisper and she nods sitting back down. I leave over grabbing her head with my hand and kissing her cheek. She smiles lightly grabbing her fork. "Although I don't know exactly what was said about me, thank you" "you're welcome baby" I mumble taking a bite of food. I was also still kinda upset how she didn't want to be with me. I know I screwed up but I have to have her in my life. She brings me up when I'm down. "You okay?" She ask noticing, she always notice. No one ever does but her. "Yes baby, I'm just thinking" I smile and so does she. She giggles looking down blushing. "What?" I chuckle and she shakes her head. "Nothing" she giggles again. God she's beautiful, I love that laugh, so much.
