Chapter 30-He Was A Boy?

Chapter 30-He Was A Boy?

I parked the car in the driveway and then got out and headed towards the front door. What's more quieter and private than our house? I mean there's going to be no one in there but us. I opened the door, walked in with the sound of his footsteps right behind me. I turned around when I heard the sound of the door close. I folded my arms and made sure to keep my face blank and to hide my emotions, we fell in silence for a long time, I refused making eye contact and kept glancing around while I felt his gaze on me the whole time.

I sighed when I got tired of waiting and then finally looked at him with an arched eyebrow, I guess it's the right time to start talking about whatever shit he wanted to talk about.

"Well..." I trailed off indicating that he should start talking.

"The others are back in LA too..." was the first thing he decided to say.

I huffed a sigh before turning on my heels and stomping up the stairs to my room. The last thing I want to hear, is my so called best friends, who lied straight to my face. Yeah, I hate liars. I walked in my room and locked my door behind me. I could hear his footsteps getting closer to the door. He knocked on the door, but I just ignored him and slid down against the door. I pulled my knees close to my chest as I heard Justin knock again.

"Maddie" he sighed "I'm really sorry for the things I've said, I was just angry and I meant nothing from what I've said. The guys told me all about Mia and I feel like a complete douche for how I've been treating you lately-"
"Yes, you are" I mumbled.

"But I'm in love, Maddie, and I will never forgive myself for how I treated you. But if you give me another chance, I promise I'll treat you like the princess you are...I love you " he said making it hard for me to ignore him or try to block his voice out.

"I know I've made alot of mistakes and I know that it's not that easy for you to give me another chance, especially after I betrayed your trust...but that doesn't mean that I'm gonna give up, I'll do anything, whatever it takes for you to forgive me...I'll do it"

I don't know why, but I couldn't say anything, as if something was holding me back. I heard him sigh when I didn't say anything, I know he left because it was silent after that. I really don't know what I should be doing, I groaned in frustration and hid my head between my knees. I couldn't help but feel completely and utterly confused.

My heart skipped million beats when he said that he loves me, I had this urge to tell him that I love him back and just forgive him. But at the same time, I don't wanna get hurt and especially by him, I'm not really sure if I'm ready to take the risk and give him another chance.

I don't know how long I have been just sitting on the ground, but my head snapped up when I heard the sound of what sounded like a guitar. I pushed myself off the ground and slowly made my way towards the balcony as the sound of the guitar strumming only got louder with every step I took. I opened the glass door of the balcony, slid inside and then closed the door behind me. I placed my hands on the railing of the balcony looking down at our garden in slight shock.

There stood Justin with a guitar in his hands while strumming the chords effortlessly. Please don't tell me that he's gonna sing me another song, I mean it's romantic and all, but I just don't want it to be the reason for my heart's wrong judgement.

' love you, need you
I need you here to stay'

My heart did that crazy flip back again, when he said 'love you, need you'. Yeah, I'm not sure if I could get used to him telling me that. No matter how many times he says it, I don't think that my heart would freaking calm down and not do some crazy flip backs.
