My Bad Boy | ✔️

Chapter 72

Previously on | My Bad Boy . . .

The pain in my heart was unbearable.

Stephen was walking around the hallway and his eyes landed on me. He noticed my face full of tears and he immediately ran over to me, "What's wrong?" He asked sounding a bit worried.

I didn't answer, I just stared blankly at the floor.

"C'mon let's go back to your room." He said and pulled my arm, leading me back to my room.

I lost her.

Selena

It has been a few days and I was completely devastated. I had to keep a fake smile plastered on my face when people came to visit me.

My mother told me Emily was coming over in a few minutes, and I was kind of happy I was going to see her. She always knew how to brighten up my mood.

I didn't tell the investigator anything about Veronica or Justin. I kept quiet and made up lies that surprisingly he believed.

The doctor was currently checking up on me and I cleared my throat quietly catching his attention, "Anything wrong?" He spoke kindly.

"No, I was just wondering how Justin is doing. You know, the guy I came here with." I explained.

His eyebrows rose, "Oh yes, Justin. He was released two days ago."

I don't know why that made me sad. I was the one who told him to leave me alone. I was the one who ended our relationship.

It was probably the hardest decision I have ever made in my entire life. I gave the doctor a nod and he quietly left the room.

I felt my heart shatter to pieces when I saw Justin cry that day. He rarely cried, and knowing I was the one causing him pain, broke me.

I didn't regret my decision though. I knew it was for the best. I had to keep myself safe. I couldn't put myself in danger being with Justin. He has a lot of enemies and he's acquainted with people who are crazy. I couldn't put my mom in danger.

My thoughts were interrupted when Emily walked inside the room and literally ran towards me.

"Em!" I said, happy that she was here.

She hugged me tightly mumbling things that I couldn't understand, "You need to tell me what happened! And why isn't Justin here? He's always with you." She said when she pulled away from the hug, placing a hand on her hip sassily.

"I got in another car accident." I chuckled, ignoring what she said about Justin.

She gasped, "Again! With who?" She asked, sitting down on the bed looking at me greedily, wanting to know more.

"Justin." I managed to choke out.

"You look pale. Is he okay?" She said, looking worried now.

I nodded and forced a smile, "Yeah he's fine. Um so how are you and Evan?" I asked, wanting to change the conversation quickly.

She narrowed her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest, "Selena Marie Gomez I want you to tell me what are you hiding from me. I know that smile is fake so don't try and fool me." She pursed her lips.
