You rolled over checking your phone on the nightstand. You had a missed call from an unknown number and a voicemail. You unlocked your phone and went straight to the phone app to check the voicemail. It was obviously a private number because you couldn't see it. You clicked the voicemail and placed the phone to your ear.
"Hey Y/n it's uhm, it's Justin. I don't know if this is you or not but it's the number I found. Anyways, I've been thinking about you and I'd like to hang out or something soon. I miss you. Anyways, if this is really you, call me back ***-266-2827." You pulled the phone away from your ear and stared at it for a second trying to figure out what happened.
Justin had been your bestfriend when you were little up until his life took a turn. You were there until he was 16. That's when he started changing. He was not Justin anymore and you had to buckle down for your senior year and get ready for college. You could not watch your bestfriend spiral into some rich brat any longer so you left. You hadn't heard from him since. It broke your heart to do it but he was NOT the Justin you had grown up with at all. You found it odd that almost 6 years later, he decided he wanted to see you. You thought about it for a minute before making the decision to call the number. You dialed it and the phone began to ring making your heart beat super fast in your chest.
"Hello? Y/n?" you heard how much different his voice sounded but it was still painfully unmistakable.
"H-hey." your voice cracked when you tried to talk. You weren't sure why but you felt tears pool in the corner of your eyes.
"U-Uhm, I'm back home and I really just wanted to see you." you heard him swallow back the evident lump in his throat.
"Uh, okay. I would like that. Uhm, you can uh, you can come to my apartment later if you want to?" you continued to stumble over your words not sure why you were so nervous.
"Okay. Where uhm, where is it?" it broke your heart when you realized he didn't even know where you lived now.
"The apartments off Cherry." You lived in the apartments that you and Justin both fantasized about living in one together one day when you were little.
"O-oh. Okay. Uhm I'll see you at 3. Is that okay?"
"That's fine yeah. Oh it's apartment B." you said quietly. It was the one you had picked out as kids. It was right in the middle and had a view of everything and fast access to the pool. You and Justin swore you'd live there one day.
"O-okay. I'll see you later. Bye y/n."
"Bye Justin." you felt so weird calling him Justin and hearing him call you Y/n. That was never the case 6 years ago. After hanging up the phone, you decided to clean your apartment up a little. You put up all of your clothes and folded the blankets on the couch. You did the dishes and wiped off the counter in the kitchen then swept and ran the vacuum throughout the whole house. After doing all of that, you decided to take a shower. It was about 11:30 now so you decided to take a fast shower.
After you took a shower, you put on a black tank top and a pair of Nike shorts and blow dried your hair. You decided against makeup and just sprayed on a little of your favorite perfume. You checked the time only to find it was only 1:30. You decided to go get some food and a coffee. You went out to your car after sliding on your rainbows and drove yourself to chick fil a. You decided to get Justin something too and ordered what you remember being his favorite. (Is chick fil a even a thing in Canada? idk oh well) You got the food and drove to Starbucks ordering you both a coffee.
By the time you made it back to your house it was already 3. You saw Justin's figure standing at your door. You got out carrying everything to the front door until you were standing behind him.
"Justin?" he whipped his head around quickly when he heard your voice.
"Oh my god. Y/n." he teared up reaching a hand to touch your cheek.
"Can you uhm, hold this for a second while I unlock the door?" you asked awkwardly handing him the bags in your hand.
"Oh! Yeah. Sure." he took them and waited for you to unlock the door. You walked inside and he followed closely behind you.
"Just set them on the bar. I got you something too." you said quietly walking into the kitchen. He sat the bags down and you gave him his coffee.
"Thanks." he gave you a soft smile. You nodded and pulled his food from the bag. He took it from your hands gently and you felt yourself tear up.
"Justin?" you said softly.
"Yeah?" He looked at you and you lost it. The tears poured out. He quickly wrapped his muscular arms around you. "It's okay. Shh." he played with your hair softly.
"Justin it's not okay. I have to tell you something." You said and he gave you a worried look.
"Justin. I was in love with you. I fell in love with you and then you changed and I didn't know what to do. I'm still in love with that 15 year old. And I can't seem to get over him. I haven't been in a relationship. All I've thought about is you." You looked up wiping your eyes.
"Y/n I was in love with you too. I don't know what to say. I've missed you so much. But I couldn't ever bring myself to finding you again. I didn't think you wanted anything to do with me. Why did you leave Y/n?" he asked the dreaded question you never wanted to answer.
"Because you changed. You weren't Justin anymore." you looked down to the ground.
"I'm sorry. Can we try this bestfriend thing again? I really miss you Y/n. So much." you looked into his brown eyes and softly nodded.
"I'd like that." you have him a small smile.
"Great. Let's not let this Chick Fil A go to waste huh?" he said making you giggle.
"Of course not." you smiled.

After finishing your food and watching a few movies, Justin didn't choose another movie to watch. Confused, you looked at him to see he was sitting completely silent.
"Justin?" you asked raising your eyebrow. "You okay?"
"Yeah. Y/n what are you doing next week?" he asked catching you off guard.
"What?" you were confused as to what he was getting at.
"What are you doing next week? I want to take you on vacation." You raised your eyebrow not sure where all of this came from.
"I'm supposed to work." You were still confused.
"Call out. Come with me. I wanna go on vacation and I want you to go with me." he said very seriously.
"uhm okay? Where? Why?"
"I don't know. Anywhere you want to go. And because we need to reconnect. I miss you." you smiled at his sweetness. This was the Justin you remembered.
"Okay." You smiled picking up your phone. "I'll call out now. I hope they let me off." you said sighing. Maybe it was dumb but you were in love and didn't care. Justin was the kind of person you'd drop everything for and run away.
Part 2? 😛😛😛
