Danger (Justin Bieber FanFiction)

CHAPTER 46:" I should have let you explain"

Kelsey's Point of View:

"Jeremy..." Pattie began but was soon cut off my Jeremy.

"Didn't I tell you, you were forbidden in this house?" Jeremy stared at Justin in such disgust, it made my heart shatter.

Justin seemed to be rendered speechless at this point because he didn't say a word. Instead, he stared at his father in complete shock.

"Dad..." Jaxon mumbled, feeling the tension build up amongst us all.

Jeremy, however, ignored us all. "What do you think you're doing in this household?"

Justin licked his lips. "Visiting my family. What do you think?"

"Family?" Jeremy laughed. "What family?" He gestured all around him with open arms. "I don't see your family around here." Shaking his head, Jeremy scowled. "As far as I'm concerned you're nothing to us."

"Jeremy!" Pattie yelled; her voice stern. "Don't you dare refer to us all in that manner. He is my son-our son!"

"Not to me, he isn't! After he became some thug, all respect had gone out the window." Jeremy yelled. "And the death of your sister was the final straw." He stuck a finger into Justin's chest.

"Don't bring Jazzy into this!" Justin spat.

"Why not? It's not like she's here to stop it!" Jeremy barked back. "You're the reason she's dead!"

"Jeremy, enough!" Pattie cried.

"I told you to leave and never come back, that was meant to be forever. I never once said I wanted to see your face again years from then."

Justin's chest moved up and down in anger, his face red, fists clutched at his side. "I know it was a mistake coming here." Grabbing my hand, Justin pulled me up. "Come on Kelsey, we're going." Pushing past Jeremy, Justin began making his way to the door.

"Do you see what you do?" Pattie hissed. "He's our son, Jeremy!"

Justin abruptly stopped, the cries of his mother filling his ears and I knew that he didn't want to leave her behind. "You know what?" Justin sneered, his eyes narrowed. "I'm not leaving." He shook his head. "Not until you hear me out anyways."

Dropping my hand, Justin walked over to Jeremy as I followed close behind.

"I know you hate me..." Justin shook his head. "Trust me, I hate me too... but it wasn't my fault."

"Nothing ever is." Jeremy hissed.

"Let him finish." Jaxon cut in for the first time and each of us turned to face him in shock. Jaxon ignored our gazes, keeping his attention on Justin. "Go on." He encouraged. "We're listening."

I smiled softly in thanks. That's all Justin ever needed. To be heard.

Justin licked his lips, nodding. "I fucked up. I fucked up big time and I know that night Jazzy died, it looked bad... but you have to understand, if I knew she was following me that night, I wouldn't have gone in the first place."

I bit my lip, feeling all the emotions he felt inside of me.

"When I realized she was inside the warehouse that night, my heart practically leaped out of my chest. I knew something could go wrong and I told her to leave. She didn't listen and I'm not saying it's her fault because I should have just taken her out of there myself... but," He shook his head. "I froze when I heard someone walk in." Justin gulped.

Confusion tinted Jeremy's brown eyes.

"It was Jason. Jason McCann... he had the warehouse wired down and there was no way out. If either of us moved, he would tear us apart with just one click of a button. I tried to talk him out of it but he's ruthless. There was no getting inside his head. He didn't even care that I was going to lose someone that I loved as long as he looked like some big tough guy in the end..." Tears whelmed up in his eyes. "I tried to think of so many ways I could have gotten her out so she could live and I would die." The tension slowly died down but the emotions were running high. "That's all I cared about," Justin continued, "keeping her alive. I didn't even care about myself."
