Summer love

Chapter 12

Selena's POV

I haven't heard from Justin for a week. I called him every day, but he never answered. I really want to go visit him over the weekend, but I have so many things to do. Ok, not so many things, but I promised I would be at Demi's on Saturday because her family will come to visit, and she wants someone to talk to. I've just finished my last cheerleader training for this week, and I'm on my way home.

"Ey! Won't you wait for me today?" Anthony came running after me.

"Oh, Anthony. Sorry, I forgot."

"No problem. Is everything alright Sel?"

"Sure," I replied.

"No, it's not. C'mon! You know you can talk to me."

"Yeah, it's just..." I trailed off not really wanting to talk about it.

"Just?.. Justin?"

"Yes."

"What's up between you two? I haven't heard you talking at night anymore," he said.

"Yeah, because we don't talk anymore."

"Did you two fight?" He asked.

"No, everything was alright," I explained.

"Oh, he probably has a reason; he'll tell you as soon as he can. Just give him some time. Guys need that," he said and winked.

When we arrived home, I opened the door, but Anthony got inside before I had the chance to. Then I closed the door, and he said, "Okay, I'll go over to Brandon, have fun, but not too much."

"What do you mean Anthony? Wait, Brandon?" I can't believe they're friends. I lost the focus on what I was thinking, in the moment I turned around to face Anthony, and I saw Justin standing in front of me.

I can't believe he's here. He's here. Thousands of miles away from his home. I was still lost in my thoughts when Anthony shut the door, and Justin said, "hey sweetie."

"Jus, I can't believe you're here!" I ran into his arms, and he whirled me around. I felt so safe in his arms.

I wish I could hold him forever without letting go. We sat down on the couch, with his arms around me, my head on his chest, and our fingers interlocked. Then we talked for some hours. This moment should last forever. He was by my side, which was the best feeling in the world.

"Wanna go out for dinner?" He asked.

"Sure, let me change first."

"Okay, I'll change too." He said.

"Where are your stuff?" I asked.

"In the guest room. Your mom told me to put them there." He explained.

"Oh okay."

"Is there a problem?"

"No, it's just Anthony's room, but he isn't here anyway."

"Okay, let's go. Hurry; I'm hungry." I laughed at that, and went upstairs, I put on some dark jeans and a white top. I was looking for my shoes when Justin stood in front of me, looking deeply into my eyes. Then he said, "I'm so happy to see you."

"Me too. Thank you for coming."

"Everything for my baby," he said leaning in, and I did too.

We were about to kiss when someone shouted, "I'M BACK." It was Anthony. Why exactly now? We never get the chance to kiss because we always get interrupted.

"Let's go?" Justin stretched out his hand, so I took it. I nodded, and we went downstairs. While I put on my shoes, Anthony started talking to Justin.

"Hey, I know I wasn't the nicest to you the last time. Sorry for that. I didn't know how happy you make Selena. But keep it like that, otherwise I won't be nice to you again." Anthony warned.

"I will."

"I'm Anthony."

"Justin." They shook hands and smiled at each other. Then I went by Justin's side, and we said goodbye to Anthony while leaving the house.

We went to the car, then we drove for like five minutes. When we arrived at the nice little restaurant, Justin didn't leave the car, so I stayed inside with him. "Sel?" He asked.

"Yes?" I said looking at his side.

"There are two things I have to do," he said.

"What's it?" He hasn't given me time to think. Suddenly, the softest lips were touching mine. I kissed back, of course. Then after a while, we pulled away. "This was the first."

I smiled at him. "And the second?"

"The second is... You know. This week I've been asked, and I'm wondering to myself if I was single or not. I answered that I had a girlfriend, of course, but it wasn't official. So I want to make this real. I want to make us real. So, Selena Gomez? Would you be my girlfriend?" He asked.

"Omg Justin, I'd love to." In this moment, he got a huge smile on his face, just like me. The then leaned in, and we kissed again passionately.

Then we got out of the car. He opened the door for me. We are a lot and talked a lot too. Then we drove back. At home, my mom was waiting for us. "Hey guys," she greeted us. "Justin, you can sleep with Anthony in the guest room. It's okay for him."

"Thank you Ms Gomez."

"Oh, call me Mandy."

Then we went upstairs. "I don't wanna let you go."

"It's only for one night," I told him.

"Too long."

"Then come with me." I smiled at him.

"I would. But I don't want your mom to hate me already," he said and we both laughed.

"Okay goodnight babe."

"Night beautiful." We kissed for the last time then went separated ways to our rooms. I thought about the day lying in my bed. But since I was quite tired from training, I quickly fell asleep.
