HOTLINE BLING {WATTYS2016}

Chapter 18

"Hey." He softly greeted and slightly smiled at you.

"Justin, what are you doing here?" You whispered.

He chuckled rubbing the back of his neck nervously. "Wasn't expecting that reaction. "

"No offense, but what reaction were you exactly expecting?!" Audrey  shouted back from the couch. "Just saying!" She turned back around flicking the channels.

Justin looked past you and saluted at Aubrey with two fingers. "Good to see you to Audrey."

Justin turned his attention back towards you. You were shifting back and forth on your toes.

"Can I talk to you for a minute?"

You looked up at him not knowing exactly what to say not realising Audrey turned off the television and walked towards the door.

"I'll give you two some privacy."

-

Silence. It has been silent for probably just ten seconds but to you it felt like ten minutes; Maybe even longer then that.

You sucked in a shaky breath, feeling your throat constrict. Panic rose like bile in your body. You suddenly didn't know how to speak. Or walk. You just stood blankly, staring up at the terror before you. Your palms were clammy, and it was all you could do not to knot your fingers together. He was taking forever to say what was on his mind. You watched Justin's denominator and realised you weren't the only nervous one in the room.

As for Justin the anxiety curled into his stomach, hands clawing up his throat and choking him letting the words he had practiced over and over again be dragged back down his throat and dissolved into the acid of his belly, but all he can worry about is keeping his knees from buckling under the weight of his wobbly body. All of his nerves on edge." I'm a lil rusty but.. I'm done playing games....I just." He paused. "I need to get this off my chest."

Your heart rate increased. You didn't know if it was something bad or good. It was killing you inside. You just wanted to yell "HURRY UP AND TALK." But you see that it's hard for him so you stood there patient.

He made eye contact with you from the other side of the glass table.

"I know we argue a lot, we've been doing it real often."

"Yeah." You said looking down. "It's pretty annoying."

"It amazes me how much shit you can take from me, I know you're still pissed about yesterday's photoshoot."

"Of course I am still pissed!" You yelled out. "You're mouth was simply out of control, so unprofessional."

"Oh but it was professional sleeping with drake in the dressing room?" He asked calmly.

He had a point and you knew he did. "I'm grown I can do what I want with who I want, I'm not tied down to no one. You also didn't have to call me out of my name like that but you did anyway."You said annoyed

"I know I say things without thinking it through. Without thinking how my words would effect you. But when I see you with Drake it just...."

You looked at him out of curiosity. Waiting for him to finish his line.

"It's just what?"

"I get jealous of him and protective over you..."

What he was saying right now was catching you off guard. Justin jealous? Protective? For what? Isn't he with Selena? Of course you didn't know exactly for that matter.

"Justin, I'm done okay with this back and forth with you, I stressed the fuck out okay? I'm tired of arguing with you every time we get into the same room together....you need to go." You said walking towards the door until he stopped you by taking your hand gently into his.
