As Long As You Love Me (Justin Bieber and Ariana Grande)

Chapter 52

Friday, July 10th

Ariana Grande

"Ariana, the baby's crying." Justin says.

I sit up immediately and look at the clock.

"Another 2 am. Great. I'll be back." I stand up and walk upstairs.

I walk into Jaycee's room and feed her then rock her back to sleep and put her in the crib.

"How do you feel?" I ask, sitting back on Justin's lap.

"OK, I guess. Tired."

"Go to sleep."

"I will. When you go to sleep."

"Justin, stop worrying about me. You're sick and you need to get some rest."

"But I love you."

"Justin..." I say patiently.

"Fine! I'll go to sleep. But you're gonna lay right here and sleep with me."

"Whatever." He puts his arm around my waist and pulls me down on the couch.

"Well thanks."

"You're welcome."

10:00 am

"We're home!" Jazmyn yells.

"Oh God. She's back."

"Shut up, Justin!"

All 4 of them walk into the living room and sit down.

"How was your vacation?" Justin asks.

"It wasn't really a vacation. We were still in the same city." Pattie says.

"Just answer the question."

"It was fun. Very fun." Austin says.

"Did you... Oh my God, that's disgusting." Justin groans.

"We have a life too." Pattie says.

"No, I don't wanna hear about anything you did. At all."

"I wasn't gonna tell you, at all." She says.

He rolls his eyes and I lay my head in his lap.

"Oh, by the way, I'm sick." He says.

Jazmyn moves away from him and I giggle.

"I don't wanna be sick."

"You won't get sick. I slept with him and I'm perfectly fine." I sneeze and Jazmyn laughs.

"You sound like a kitten."

"Everybody says that!"

"I thought you were perfectly fine." Pattie says.

"I am. I have allergies."

"Mhmm. I'm sure you'll be saying that in an hour." Austin stands up and she follows him upstairs.

"Movie time!" Jaxon yells.

"You do that." I stand up and walk upstairs.

"Where do you think you're going?" Pattie asks.

"To take care of my child. Why?"

"You can't go in there. You're sick."

"I am not sick!"

"Ariana, trust me. I have experience with this. It's in your best interest to stay away from her. At least for today."

"But-"

"No buts. Just go downstairs with your sick fiancée and I'll take care of her."

"Fine."

"Thank you." She walks into Jaycee's room and go back downstairs.

"That was fast." Justin says.

"She said I'm sick."

"You are. But it's probably just a small cold. I'm sure you'll be OK by Sunday."

"Whatever." I sneeze again and Jazmyn giggles.

"Hush your face."

"It's not my fault you sneeze like a kitten."

"I don't sneeze like a kitten! Kitten's sneeze like me."

"Same thing."

"No, it's not. Justin!" I whine.

"What?" He says.

"Tell your sister to leave me alone."

"He doesn't have control over me." She says.

"Actually, I do. Being your older brother and all."

"No one asked you." She mutters.

I giggle and lay my head on Justin's chest.

"Let's be sick together!"

"We already are."

"Don't ruin the moment."

"What moment?"

"Ugh! Just hush." He shrugs and I sneeze into his chest.

"Thanks for that." He says.

"You're welcome."

"Aww, you sound cute."

"How do I sound cute?"

"Because your nose is stuffy."

"You're so stupid."

"Thank you."

He kisses my forehead and I turn my attention back to the TV.

"What is this?"

"The Secret Life of Pets!" They both yell.

"Can you ever pick something different to watch?" Justin asks.

"No!" They yell again.

"OK, you have fun with that movie." He lifts me off his lap and stands up.

"Come on, baby girl. We're going upstairs to watch a much better movie than this."

"Whatever you say." We walk upstairs and I lay in the bed.

"What movie are we watching?"

"I have no idea."

"I thought so."
