Why Fall For Him

*Selena's pov*

Both George and Justin blankly starred at me. Tears formed in my eyes. This wasn't the way I was planning on telling George I was pregnant with Justin's baby. And I defiantly wasn't planning on telling Justin I was pregnant. I thought it'd be best if he didn't know. Maybe that way we could've moved on with our lives.

Justin began to say something it I pushed him out of my way and walked to the car. I got in the passengers seat. Once I got in, I turned my head to the side, looking out of the window. I wiped the tears from my eyes and thought to myself, he never cared, so why should I?

George followed behind me. He got in the drivers seat. The ride home was completely silent. But, I didn't mind it. It gave me time to think and take in everything that had just happened.

We pulled into the driveway and I instantly pulled the handle on my door. George held me back and forced me to look into his eyes. His eyes sparkled but they were nothing compared to Justin's hard but soft brown eyes.

"You deserve someone better than him." He said. I knew it was true but who could be better than Justin? And how can I deserve someone better than Justin when I deserve him?

I got out of the car. George sat in the car and watched me walk to the door.

"You can get in the house without the keys." He said and let out a soft chuckle. He tossed me the keys and of course I dropped them. I slowly bent down to pick the keys, when George picked them up. Our eyes met then locked. I quickly shoved every emotion I felt aside. I walked straight to the shower. I stripped my clothes and got in the shower.

George faintly knocked on the door.

He opened the door an starred at the ground. He scratched the back of his head before he said anything.

"Selena I-" he nearly mumbled before I cut him off.

"George please." I whispered. He turned around and walked out of the bathroom. The door was slightly cracked. I saw him turn around and examine my body. He bit his bottom lip. A smirk crossed his face.

I threw my bra and underwear on and walked out of the bathroom. As I was walking towards the closet, George grabbed my waist and pulled me into his arms. His arms were wrapped around my stomach. His warm arms gave me a sense of security. I felt safe, like nothing I the world could harm us. We had a force field around us, nothing else in the world mattered except us. He spun me around a few times before our eyes locked. He gently threw me on the bed and hovered over my body. Our eyes locked once more. Butterflies fluttered my stomach. I tried ignoring my feelings for George but after tonight I realized I really do deserve someone better than Justin. I realized I shouldn't have to hide the way I feel for someone I care about because I'm scared of what might happen if someone I used to and still care about deeply were to do something that could not only risk not only my life but my baby's life as well, because of jealously.

George flopped on the bed beside me. He turned to his side and a huge smile crossed his face. I studied his expression trying to figure out what was making him smile so much. He eyes were glued on me. My heart ached to see Justin's eyes glued on me.

George placed his right hand on my thigh.

"George?" I hesitated. George looked at me. I took a deep breath before I said, "About the baby," I paused. I studied his expression. For a few seconds, he just starred at me. Then, a smile crossed his face.

"Listen, no matter what I'll be here, forever. I'm never leaving. I'm sticking with you every step of the way. Nothing is goin' to change." George said. He cupped my face with the palm of his hands. I felt my cheeks burn up. A smile crossed my face and as hard as I tried to hide it, I couldn't.

"You don't care?" I asked. He shook his head. His smile lit up my world and I felt like all of my worries and problems vanished.

"As long as you're happy, nothing else matters." He said then planted a small kiss on my lips. His lips were so soft and comforting. Slowly he began to drift off. All I could think about was our kiss.

George's arms were wrapped around my body and his head was resting on my chest. I starred at the ceiling. I player with his hair until he woke up. His eyes fluttered open.

"Good morning beautiful." He said. I felt my heart melt. I smiled as George planted a soft kiss on my cheek. Our eyes were glued to each other. A million thoughts ran throughout my mind. If I could stare into his eyes forever I would. If I could feel his touch forever I would.

I knew he felt the same way. If anything, his feelings for me were stronger than my feelings for him. I know we're moving a little fast, but I want to call him mine. I don't want to be in the 'friend' zone anymore. Ever since he kissed me in the Starbucks parking lot, I've thought more about him than just a friend.

A smirk crossed George's face as he crawled out if bed. He grabbed my hand and dragged me out of bed. We walked downstairs, to the kitchen. He grabbed a box of pancakes.

The next hour or so, me an George were making pancakes. I dug my hand into the bowl of pancake mix. He had his back turned to me. I dumped the pancake mix in his hair. He turned around. His mouth was open and pancake mix was dripping down his face. He wiped it from his eyes and chased me around the house. Both of us were laughing and throwing pancake mix at each other.

A faint knock at the door made us stop and look at each other for a second. I took a quick look at George, hoping he wouldn't notice my eyes were strictly on him. He ha pancake mix in his hair, all over his body and his clothes were covered on pancake mix. I had to force myself not to laugh. But I knew he was trying his best not to laugh because I was just as bad.

I opened the door and I felt my heart drop to the floor. Justin was at the door. He had a single rose in his hand. He looked like he was on his way to work because he had a black suit on and his hair was slicked back. I must admit, he did look good. However, he was the last person I wanted to see. He stood in the door way, trying to find something to say. I had nothing to say to him and I knew George didn't have anything to say either.

"Give me another chance." Justin begged. Tears formed in his eyes.

"Justin," I whispered. A I felt a knot build up in the back if my throat. I starred at the floor. I couldn't look into his eyes. I'd fall for everything he said. I'd forgive for everything he's done to me.

George grabbed my hand, our fingers locked. Justin starred at our hands. His expression was blank but I knew his heart was breaking.

"I can't live my life knowing I've lost you. Selena, please." Justin begged. His voice cracked and I could hear the pain in his voice.

"You're having my child, you can't cut me off like that." He continued.

"I'm sorry." He said. I knew this time, he meant it.

"Why do you care so much all of a sudden?" I asked. Justin shrugged his shoulders. Silence filled the air for a minute.

"Last night was a wake up call. I'll take full responsibility for what I've done but I promise I'll never do it again." He said. Both of us looked at each other. Tears slowly began building up in my eyes. Tears fell down Justin's cheek. Surprisingly, seeing him hurt didn't effect me.

"I can't go on with my life knowing I could have a little me running around the house and I won't be around for that. I can't and I won't be the father my dad was to me. All I want is a second chance. I'll do anything." He said as he wiped his tears with his forearm. "I love you." He faintly said. I knew he meant it. Maybe I did too. I just couldn't risk it.

"Change." I said then slowly shut the door. "Selena!" Justin said, banging on the door with the palm of his hands. "Selena!" He said again. He banged on the door with both hands. "Bye Justin." I said.
