Selena’s POV:
It has been a month since the incident with Justin being in the hospital and how he declared him and Ariana off. I am glad to say that he didn’t stay in the hospital for too long, just a day and then he was out. Ariana hasn’t called or texted him since the fight but she does occasionally text me since we are family, but she doesn’t text often. Ariana and I still haven’t really talked it out about what happened and I get the feeling she isn’t ready for it yet. She was playing Justin, who was playing her with me. Confusing, I know.
Justin and I are still very much friends, very close friends. Friends with benefits. Every time we hang out he does the occasionally wink and nod and then kisses me making our kissing turn into a make out session but that has always been it. Flirting, kissing, making out, the constant groping, and thats it. We have never really taken it to the bed unless its for cuddling or sleeping. We never really talked about it that often and I don’t think Justin wants to. It might be too awkward to talk about with him. I guess when the time comes we will hopefully get a chance to talk about it together.
School has been okay. I mean it’s school there isn’t much I can say about it. Oh, but I am glad to say that Miley is my bestest friend at the school now. She has been such a great help for the past month and so far I am starting to get her to notice that the rumors about Justin aren’t true and that he isn’t an abuser. Those rumors still aren’t clear yet, but I am just assuming he isn’t because I have known him for a while and he hasn’t shown any sign of aggression towards me. I might piss him off from time to time but he gets over it quickly.
I walked down the school hall clutching my books against my chest as I made my way towards my locker. I stopped in front and fiddled with the combination for a while before finally groaning and giving up, slamming a weak punch at my locker in frustration. Why the hell are locks so difficult?
"Need help princess?" Justin’s voice breathed in my ear from behind while I felt his arms wrap around my front. He pressed a kiss to my cheek and I smiled. He always made me feel better when he was around.
"Yeah, I do actually. Can you help me with my combination?" I whispered back looking up at him and placing a quick kiss to his lips.
Justin unwraveled his arms from me and flashed me a confident smile, “I got this.”
Bam. He was already done opening my lock and flipping my locker door open, leaning against the wall and raising one eyebrow. He put his hands in his jean pockets and gave me a cocky grin. I rolled my eyes, what a show off.
"Thank you Justin you can go now." I said as I put my books in my locker.
"No way." Justin denied.
"Why?" I asked stealing a quick glance over at him.
"The day is over, no school tomorrow, so I want to walk you home." He smiled, rolling his tongue over his lips.
"Thanks but I am perfectly fine with walking home by myself." I said with a hint of annoyance on my voice. I slammed my locker shut and pulled the strap on my purse up on my shoulders. I walked past him without making eye contact. Ever since the night where i practically left Justin lying on his bed with a boner i have learned how to stand up for myself, all thanks to Miley. It was her idea and it couldn’t have been more perfect.
As I was about to walk out of the doors, a hand grabbed my wrist and pulled me back. Justin furociously slammed my back against the wall and pinned both of my wrists above my head, pressing his body into mine so I couldn’t move.
"I said, I am walking you home. This is a genorous offer from me and I want you to take it." He spoke, his eyes lazily falling over my lips as i drew out a shaky breath.
“Fine.” I muttered, turning my head away from him.
"Good." He whispered planting a kiss to my cheek and releasing my wrists. He removed his body from mine and slide his hand in mine, lacing our fingers together. I looked over at him and he seemed perfectly fine, like he didn’t just force his friend up against the wall and pressure into agreeing into walking her home.
Justin’s POV:
I was happy, and satisfied. Selena finally said yes for me to walk her home, and that made me feel all excited. I was planning on asking her out on a date while we were walking alone together, and when she said no in the beginning it really pissed me off. So i scared her into it. I know that sounds mean but i just really needed to get her alone with me and I couldn’t really wait to do it.
We walked for a while and I couldn’t find myself to speak. It is just Selena, I spoke to her before its not like shes a complete stranger. I have asked plenty of other girls out before but Selena is different, I love her. She made me feel nervous and shy when I’m around her when I’m suppose to be cocky and confident.
I cleared my throat, “So um, Selena how was your day?” I said trying to sound casual but I could tell by the look on Selena’s face she knew something was up.
"My day was fine. Are you okay? Your hand is getting really sweaty." She asked trying to contain a smile from spreading across her lips.
I quickly pulled our hands apart and wiped the sweat off of my palm onto my shirt. Why the fuck was I so nervous? I just need to calm down. I can do this.
"So Selena-"
"Yes." She said cutting me off.
"I didn’t even ask the question!" I chuckled.
She elbowed me gently in the side, “I already know what you were going to ask. Chaz told me all about it. So pick me up tonight at 8 and I’ll be waiting for you.” Selena smiled, biting her bottom lip. She was so cute making me smile back.
"Well, I’m relieved." I huffed out.
"Why? You already knew I was going to say yes." She pondered.
I gnawed on my lip, why did i think she was going to say no? Something just in the back of my head made me think of all of the possibilities that she was going to say no for some random reason. Maybe she had plans tonight, or she didn’t want to. I dont know.
"I don’t know." I replied with a shrug.
"Well, thank you for walking me home. I’ll see you tonight." She gave me a quick kiss on the cheek and was about to walk off but I grabbed her by the waist and spun her around, smashing my lips with hers. Selena wrapped her arms around my neck and deepened the kiss making me smile. I couldn’t believe she said yes for the date tonight. This is just one step towards our new relationship and that makes me so excited.
