"But if you love me, don't let go.
If you love me, don't let go.
Hold, hold on, hold onto me
'Cause I'm a little unsteady, a little unsteady."
X Ambassadors

Things were great. Justin wasn't as distance anymore. In fact, we spent more time together if that was even possible. I stayed up under him and he deliberately teased me because of it. I didn't mind though, the nickname Chubstin occasionally made him knock it off. Seeing his face drop and him roll his eyes playfully whenever the nickname rolled off of my tongue made me cry every time.


"A man contacted me via the YouTube page you set up for me. Nothing serious, but it made me want to keep pushing forward." He stated as he transitioned from his sit ups to the starting position for pushups.

    It was rather early, but here I was in a custom tracksuit, sitting crisscrossed adjacent to Justin on the floor.

"These last few weeks have be rather different." He added on after a small groan escaped his lips. I nodded in agreement although his eyes were burning into the carpet beneath him. Ever since Justin met my father, things did appear to be unusual for the both of us. I still didn't know how things were going to pan out for us.


 I stared at him as he began to do push ups along his carpet, his the veins in his arms screamed at me every time his chest brushed up against the material beneath him

I stared at him as he began to do push ups along his carpet, his the veins in his arms screamed at me every time his chest brushed up against the material beneath him. Christmas was only a few days ago and he had already received more recognition? I was trying not to tackle him with excitement.

"What did he say?" I questioned, as I fluffed my messy bun.

"He stated he sees potential in me. Just like you. He said,if I keep posting, well if we keep posting I may have a bright future ahead of me. The man didn't offer me anything, but it made me think. What if I actually continue to upload? Would I do it for recognition or because this is something I love doing?" He addressed. I could see his brows furrow, his face become tense and then relax all at once.

"I think you'll continue to do this because it's something you love doing. Receiving recognition will just be a benefit. I assume as time passes you'll appreciate it unknowingly."

Justin looked up and over at me. A toothy grin was on his face. He didn't say a word, but I knew in his own way he agreed. He was secretly thanking me as well, since I was here to reassure him, that in actuality, everything would work out; not only in our favor as a couple, but his as well. As an individual, everything would work out for him. It had too and it would. I could feel it.
