If I Stay

Chapter 16

*** ALITTLE SEXUAL SO IF UR A FETUS BEWARE ***

I get to Froyo just as Jc does.

"So what did you need to talk abo-" He starts, but I cut him off by smashing my lips into his. I didnt really care if anyone saw. I just needed him. I needed to be in his arms. I just needed his presence.

I pull away, gasping for air. "I like you, okay? You were right! Ever since we got here I havent stopped thinking about you." I throw my hands up hopelessly. I didnt know what to think at this moment. Sam & I just broke up, & I had no idea which part of me I wanted to go with; Stay friends with Jc, or be with him. I didnt want Sam to get pissed since we just broke up, but we both did agree on us being friends rather than together. But Sam & Jc dont get along well, so maybe I shouldnt be with him.

"Is everything okay?" He asks, grabbing ahold of my wrist to stop me from pacing. I shake my head. "Do I look okay? Sam & I just broke up & I just dont know what to do!" I rest my forehead on his shoulder. He starts rubbing my back comfortingly. "Just calm down, okay? Please. Seeing you like this is sorta scary. If it helps I like you too." He pulls me up & looks at me. "I like you too, Courtney. But I think we should wait acouple of days before dating okay? You just broke up with Sam." I nod, smiling weakly. My head was pounding from thinking about all of this too much & too hard.

"Lets get you home." He wraps his arm around my waist & picks up my board before leading me into the car.

He drives me home & walks me inside, gently seating me down on the couch. He sits next to me & rubs my thigh. "You okay?" He asks, worried. I nod. "Im fine. Hey do you think you can stay a little? I hate being alone." I lay my head on his lap & he starts playing with my hair. "Okay." He smiles, then leans down & kisses me.

I tangle my fingers in his hair, then get up & push him back on the couch gently. I dont know whats making me do this. I just need him. I straddle him & continue kissing him passionately as I struggle to unzip his black jacket. I feel his lips pull into a smile as I finally manage to get his jacket off, his chest exposed.

I pull back, admiring his abs. "Lovely body." I say, giggling. I begin kissing him again, & he bites my bottom lip softly. He slowly guides his hands down my sides until he gets to the waistband of my jeans. He unbuttons & unzips them in one swift motion & tugs them off, throwing them to the side. He starts kissing down my neck & onto my collarbone, a tingly sensation running through my entire body.

"You-you should get going. My mum should be home soon." I say. I get up off his lap & grab his jacket & my jeans. I hand his jacket to him & he smiles. "Ill see you later?" He smirks, zipping up his jacket. He kisses me goodbye before walking out of the house.

*****************

Later that night after I eat dinner I decide to take a shower. I stand there, endless things running through my mind; Never in my entire life would I think Id be friends with 5 famous youtubers, let alone practically dating one. I smile, placing my fingers on my mouth.

After being in there for about 20 minutes, I get out & put on my pajamas. I walk out into the living room where mum & dad were sitting. "So how was Rickys appointment?" I ask, kissing dad on the cheek. "It went well. The doctor said that he should be starting therapy to regain some of his memory in 2 weeks." I smile at the good news. "Hey, where is Ricky anyway?" I ask, looking around. He's usually here until 7:00. "He took Nalla to the ice cream parlor."

I walk back to my room & plop down on my bed, mentally exaughsted. I thought the break-up with Sam would hit me hard, but it didnt.

I pick up my phone & scroll through twitter, remembering how Jc has or had a girlfriend. I dial his number & push my phone to my ear.

"Hey you." He says when he answers. I smile, & I can tell he is too.

"Hey Justin. Can I ask you something?" I ask, looking up at the ceiling. I didnt really know how to word what I wanted to ask; 'Whose michellexoxo on twitter, huh?' 'Are you dating a girl named Michelle?' 'Who is this girl you miss, michellexoxo?'

They all sounded harsh.

I look around the ceiling for something to ask.

"Who was that Michelle girl that you couldnt stop tweeting about last month?" I finally ask. I sigh in relief. It didnt sound mean, but it sure as hell made me sound worried.

He sighs. "She was this girl I was seeing at the time." He says. I can tell he's upset that I asked that.

"Do you mind me asking what happened?"

"She uh, she cheated on me. The only reason why I didnt tell you was because it hurt me." He says, his voice shakey.

I pout. "Aw Jc, its okay. We all experience that one horrible relationship. But its okay now. She's out of your life. Im here." I say cheerfully.

He chuckles. "& Im lucky to have you. But I got to go, okay? Goodnight Courtney."

"Night Justin." I tap end, then place my phone on my night stand.

*****************

The next day Jc took me out to a fancy Italian restraunt, saying it was the 'perfect first date.' We walked into the restraunt, out fingers intertwined. "Reservation for two." He says to the man at the podium as we walk in. The man grabs two menus, & gestures to a table out on the terrance. "Thank you." I say. He nods.

Jc pulls out my chair. "Here you go." He says. I giggle, then kiss him on the cheek. "Thank you." I take a seat & watch as he sits down in the chair infront of me. He takes out his phone. "May I take a picture of you? Twitter needs to see how beautiful you look." I blush, nodding. I smile, letting him take the picture. He taps his screen a few times before setting his phone down & picking up his menu.

"Are you Jc Caylen?" We both look up to see a teenage girl that looks like she works as a waitress here. Jc smiles, putting down the menu. "Yes." She squels, handing him a piece of paper & a sharpie. "Oh my god I love your videos so much!" She says, jumping up and down. She doesnt seem to notice me. Jc scribbles something on the paper & hands it back to her. "It was so nice meeting you! Stay beautiful." He gets up & hugs her. "Thank you so much!" She yells.

She turns to walk away, but see's me & shoots me a glare. I gasp, watching her walk away. "Did you see that?" I ask, pointing in her direction. He shakes his head. "I swear your fans hate me." I say, picking up my menu. "They dont. They just need some time adjusting to you, I promise." He places his hand on mine, looking at me with a smile on his face. "Okay okay." I look back at my menu, starving.

****************

Once Jc & I finish eating, he raises his hand up signaling the waiter. "Yes?" The waiter asks. "Id like the check please." Jc says. The waiter takes out a little leather booklet from his apron pocket & hands it to him before walking away. "Thank you for tonight." I say, fumbling with my clutch. He smiles, his eyes still on the check. He signs it & puts cash neatly in it. "Ready to go?" He asks, getting up. I grab his hand & get up. "Yes." We walk out of the restraunt when a hoard of screaming girls practically tackle Jc to the ground. "Hey leave him alone!" I shout over their screams. They ignore me & continue clawing at Jc who was struggling to get up. I push through the crowd & grab Jc by the arm, pulling him up & running to the car.

The girls pounded on the windows as we both got in & started the car. He honks the horn, causing the girls infront of us to move out of the way. We pulled out of the parking lot & drove home quickly, in hope that we lost them.

Once we get home, I get out, laughing hysterically. "That was amazing!" I say inbetween snorts. I collapse on the ground, clenching my stomach. "That was scary!" Jc says jokingly. He begins laughing, falling down next to me. We stayed like that, laughing, for a little until our stomachs were in pain. We get up, brushing ourselves off.

"So how was your 2nd fan experience?" He asks, his voice hoarse. "It was fun!" I shout, waving my arms in the air. "Well get used to it, because thats all youll be around if you date me."

Oh I can get used to it.
