Chapter 3

Justin's POV

"Where are you going?" I asked Selena.

She shrugged. "To have lunch away from the meanies."

I bit my bottom lip to stop from smiling.

She was too cute.

"Come have lunch with me." I told her.

"And the scary guy?" I laughed.

"Yes. He's not that scary and his girlfriend will be there too."

"Is she nice?"

"Yes. Very." I nodded.

"Okay." She grinned. I took her right hand in my left and walked to our table outside with her.

She took a seat next to me, leaving the other side for Ryan and Grace who were probably making out somewhere.

Horny bastards.

She tugged on the sleeve of my shirt and I turned to look at her.

"Can I colour?" She tilted her head to the side as she waited for my response.

"Of course you can. Do you have anything?"

She nodded. "I have a colouring book and colour pencils."

"Then go ahead. You have to eat though. Do you have lunch?"

"Mummy made me chicken strips." She informed excitedly.

"You like chicken strips?"

"They're yummy. Do you want one?" She offered pulling out her lunch bowl.

"Sure. Thank you." She handed me one and I ate it as she opened her colouring book and the packet of colouring pencils. She grabbed a strip, dipped it into the small container of ketchup and bit it then scrunched up her face.

She looked at me then back at the bench.

"What?"

"I..um...can I sit on your lap again please? It's comfy and this chair is hard. I'll give your more of my chicken strips and I'll let you colour with me!" She stared at me with wide eyes that made me chuckle.

"You don't need to do any of that. Come here."

She scooted onto my lap, leaning back against my chest. I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Thank you!"

"No problem." I kissed her shoulder then rested my chin on it.

She was focused on her colouring and I was focused on her so neither of us realized that Ryan and Grace had made an appearance until two throats were cleared loudly.

"Hi!" Selena waved again. She did that a lot. It was adorable.

"Hey." Grace greeted while Ryan smirked at me probably since Selena was on my lap.

"I'm guessing this is Selena?"

Selena gasped. "You know my name!"

Grace smiled. "I guess I do. I'm Grace."

"Hi Grace. Do you want to colour with me?"

"No thank you." Selena pouted.

"How about another time?" Grace conceded and Selena immediately perked up.

See? Even Grace couldn't resist her.
