You're My Lover

Chapter 27

Chapter 27

-Justin-

This class sucked. It was one of the only ones I had without Hailee. And better yet, that bitch Karla wouldn't leave me alone.

"Justin!" She would whisper from the seat behind me. I ignored her. "Justin!" After her saying it at least twenty times I turned around.

"What do you want?!" I hissed. She flinched at my tone of voice.

"Well, someone's mad." She said acting like she never did anything.

"I wonder why." I muttered. She rolled her eyes.

"I just wanted to ask you if you were busy later?" She asked. My eyes widened.

"Look, Karla I really don't like you. Even if I was single, I still would like you. Actually, I never have liked you. So no, I'm not busy later, but do I want to spend my free time with you? No." I said, receiving a frown from her. I turned around and continued to write the new song I was working on. I looked over the first lyric.

"Say you love me. As much as I love you. Yeah. Would you hurt baby? Would you do that to me yeah?"

I started getting good ideas and lyrics to put in. You might ask why I am writing music? Well, I thinks it's fun. And when you get to find a beat to sing it with, it's entertaining. I want to have a special gift for Hailee's birthday in a few months and since I had nothing better to do in the hell hole people call school, I guess I could. And so far, it's going good. I was so concerted on the song that when the bell rang, I jumped. I quickly grabbed my stuff and shoved it in my bag, walking to the front of the building and out the front doors. I saw Hailee standing by her car waiting for me, so I happily walked over to her.

-Hailee-

I saw Justin heading his way towards me. I smiled big and stared walking at him but was stopped. I looked at whoever was standing in front of me, and wasn't pleased at who it was.

"Where do you think you're going princess." He said. I mentally puked.

"Who are you calling princess Derek?" I spat. Talking a few steps back. "And as a matter of fact, I'm going to see my boyfriend."

"Oh that little wimp back there." He said. I narrowed my eyes, bursting with anger.

"Who the hell do you think you are?! Get away from her." I hear Justin say when he reached us. He stood in front of me, pushing me behind him.

"And who you think you are? You don't own her. She can talk to whoever the fuck she wants. Right princess?" Derek said. I rolled my eyes.

"I have a name. And last time I checked, it's not princess." I hissed at him.

"And who's gonna stop me from calling you princess? Princess." He continued. At this point, I was furious.

"I will. Now you better get you ass away." Justin said.

"And what are you gonna do about it? You can't do shit." Derek acted all cool.

"Oh we will about that." Justin said lunging at him. Derek stumbled backwards on the ground of the parking lot, Justin on top of him, hitting him repeatedly.

"Justin stop!" I shouted but he didn't listen. I tried to pull him off but he would move. He kept hitting and punching Derek. Then, Derek threw a punch at Justin, hitting him right in the face. Justin fell over shouting in pain.

"Justin!!" I said running to him and kneeling next to him. By now, there was a huge crowd forming around us. I looked at Justin who had a split lip and a big red mark on his upper cheek from where the punch hit him. He had his eyes shut tightly, and was still holding his cheek. I felt my body being lifted off the ground and then I was pushed off of Justin, falling in the hard concrete ground. My head was the first to make contact. I instantly felt dizzy and pain. I reached my hand up to my head and felt warm blood. Then blackness and I became unconscious.

-Justin-

When I felt Hailee being lifted away from me, my eyes shot open and I saw Derek throw her to the ground. She made one move and then she was still. Then I felt a punch to the stomach. I was so pissed that I was able to push him off of me and I continued to throw powerful punches at Derek's stomach. The crowd was probably filming everything. This will teach Derek to mess with me again.

"Boys!! Boys!! Break it up!!" We heard the principal shouting trying to get his was through the crowd. But i didn't stop.Once he made it through he pulled me off of Derek and I stood up.

"Now who's the loser bitch." I spat. Derek stood up and unexpectedly threw another punch at my face hitting my right in the cheek by my jaw. I groaned in pain.

"Boys! Derek, with me now!" The principal shouted. Derek gave me a look which I returned before walking away with the principal. Once they were gone, I rushed over to Hailee and sat down besides her. She was out cold. She had blood on her forehead next to the cut she received this morning from her tripping over her backpack. And thwn she had another cut on the back of her head. The crowd was now all gone and then I heard Stephanie and Ryan running to me.

"Oh my god! What the hell happened!?" Stephanie asked as she got to us.

"Doesn't matter. We have to get her to the hospital." I said picking her up. Ryan was at my car and opened the back seat door open for me. Stephanie got in the other side as I laid her next to Steph. I went around the car and jumped in the drivers seat and Ryan in the passengers seat. As fast as I could I pulled out of the parking lot and headed to the hospital.

"Am I going the right way?" I asked quickly to Ryan because I've never had two go to the hospital before. He nodded.

"Common Justin! She's losing a lot of blood." Stephanie said from the back seat. I looked back through my rearview mirror, seeing Stephanie's hands covered in blood. I stepped on the gas pedal and soon got to the hospital. I parked quickly and joked out running around the car. I swung open the door and grabbed Hailee's lifeless body. I ran into the entrance finding the nearest doctor. I told him what happened and the pulled out a wheelchair for Hailee, and took her away, out of my sight. Stephanie and Ryan ran in behind me.

"You can wait in the waiting room and we will call you in when you can." The lady said. I nodded and we headed to the waiting room. I sat down and felt my lip. It was split and my cheeks probably had bruises on them. After a while, the nurse came and cleaned me up.

"Do you want a clean shirt?" She asked me but I shook my head.

"I'm good thanks." I said trying to be polite. She nodded and walked away. The only thing I could think of was Hailee. I hope she's okay.

-Hailee-

I woke to a dark room. Confused in how I got here, i sat up and noticed I was in a hospital room. The only thing I remember was being thrown to the ground by that bastard Derek and then everything went black. I sat up and my head started throbbing. I groaned because of the pain. I reached up and felt my forehead, it consisting of now two cuts. I looked around the dark room seeing nothing then I came across Justin. He was sitting in a chair, curled up and sleeping. I smiled and giggled a little at how cute he was. I looked around for something small I could throw at him to wake him up, without having to get up. I found a vase filled with small pebbles. I smiled and grabbed some. I threw the first one but missed. I threw the next one and it hit him right on the head. I laughed and he stumbled off the chair onto the floor. He got up fast and looked around rubbing his eyes. His eyes met mine, but barley visible in the dark.

"You're up." He said walking over to me.

"Yeah what happened?" I asked not remembering much. "I mean, after I passed out."

"Well the principal came and Derek got into trouble. Then I took you here and been here ever since. You got a pretty bad concution." He explained everything that happened.

"You've been here the whole time?" I asked and he nodded. I smiled and held my arms out for a hug. He didn't hesitate to return it. He sat down on the bed next to me, and embraced me. It felt so good to be in his arms. To be safe.

"Steph and Ryan are here too. They went down to the food court to get dinner. And..." He dragged on.

"And what?" I asked for him to continue.

"You're parents are on the way." He mumbled but I heard him. I groaned and pulled out of the hug. "But only because you're grounded and of I didn't call them they would have thought you went out." He made a point.

"Well in that case, thank you for saving my ass." I joked and he laughed, giving me a quick kiss.

"Anything for you babe." He said and I smiled.

"And this is why you're the best." I told him. "So how's your face?" I asked towards his bruises and cuts.

"It hurts but I'm fine." He replied. "And you?"

"Same." I said. We heard the door swing open and I was scared for it to be my parents. I sighed in relief when it was just Stephanie and Ryan.

"Hey! You're awake!" Stephanie said running over to me, pushing Justin out of the way so she could give me a hug. I laughed when I heard Justin hit the floor for the second time in five minutes. Stephanie pulled out of the hug and helped Justin up.

"What is this? Make Justin fall on the floor hour?" He joked sitting back next to me on the bed.

"Oh sorry Justin." Stephanie joked back sitting in one of the chairs next to Ryan. "Anyway, how are you feeling?"

"Fine. Just hurting a little." I told her. She frowned.

"Well at least you're okay." She said and I smiled. I am thankful to have such amazing friends already.
-------------------------------------

After about an hour, it was now ten o'clock at night and my parents came bursting through the door.

"Oh my gosh Hails! Are you okay baby?!" Mom shouted coming over to me, interrupting mine and Justin's conversation since Steph and Ryan let a little bit earlier. She hugged and kissed my face as dad stood there asking if I was okay too.

"Guys I'm fine!" I finally managed to say after receiving thousands of hugs from both of them. I looked over at Justin who sat on the other end of the bed laughing. "Shut up!" I joked throwing a pillow at him. He blocked it and it fell to the floor.

"Aw young love." Mom said being over dramatic putting her hand over her heart like in movies. I rolled my eyes.

"Can we get out of here now?" I asked to them. "The doctors came in a little bit ago and I feel fine."

"Well Hails, that's not up to us." Dad said. I groaned and threw my head back.

"Do you want me to go ask if you can leave?" Justin questioned. I nodded. He got up and left the room.

"He's such a sweet young man." Mom said when the door shut. I smiled.

"I guess." Dad agreed. I smiled even bigger hearing that come from my dad. The one who bashed him badly the other morning.

"So what is this supposed to mean?" I asked.

"We're just saying we approve. And we like him. And if he makes you happy then he's just what you need." Mom said. I smiled again.

"Thank you. He's just what I need right now." I said.

"Whatever floats your boat sweetheart." Dad said hugging me and kissing my good side of my forehead.

"What made you finally understand that he's good for me?" I asked. "Because the other day you hated his guts."

"Well, you're mother finally pointed some things out. Knocked some sense into me." I explained. I laughed. I finally feel like I have me real dad back.
