Omniscient The guys and the girls decided to wait until it was bright out again to start driving. All the girls were sleeping but one. Same with the guys.
Karter POV I know I fucked up with Justine, it's just- man I don't know.
Let's just say I gave my heart to a shorty before and she fucked it up...I'm surprised I managed to get this far with Justine.
Tbh I wasn't really looking for a relationship with her. But when we left the party the night we met, it was different...we talked, got to know each other, it wasn't about sex it was about knowing each other's minds. And for that, I fell in love with her.
I knew from the moment we started talking, but I pushed the idea to the back of my head, because I was afraid.
But me being afraid caused her pain. So I gotta fix this...
Justine POV I'd been crying since the situation had begun, and once I was able to stop the girl's came to ask me what was wrong which triggered the tears once more... now it's late and I'm all out of tears, I can't sleep tho, the shit is weighing heavy on my mind.
I heard a creek and I turned around.
"What do you want?" I asked my voice laced with attitude.
"Baby can we talk? Please?" Karter said.
Seemed as though he couldn't sleep either, his eyes were red.
"I don't want to speak to you" I said turning, my back towards him.
"You don't have to talk, please, just listen" he said pleadingly.
I didn't say anything, but he took that as a sign to start talking.
"Junior year of high school I had a crush on the popular girl at school, I decided to make the first move and ask her out because I wasn't a nerd or anything I was pretty known around the school, good looking, I figured it'd be easy to ask her out. It was, so I took her out on a date and from then on we started dating. Quincy and the other guys kept telling me that she was just playing me, she wanted me for my money...never believed them, I shut them out because I was in love with her. Than I found out she got knocked up by some 23 year old drug dealer. I was crushed, I planned to have a future with that girl and she left me high and dry" he said.
"What's that have to do with me? You think I'm some trick?" I asked getting irritated.
"Justine, no I'm just saying I'm scared...that's all I'm saying, I'm scared that I mess up...I- I do love you, I've known since I met you, when you told me your whole life story within the few minutes of us talking, when it was so easy for me to relate to you. Baby, don't leave me. I do love you, more than you'll ever know I'm just-" he started chocking up
"I'm scared." He finished.
I turned around and hugged him.
I knew that Karter had gone through some stuff though he and Keith are twins, he never felt like he was good enough for his family. He never told his brother that, I've encouraged him to but he's just not ready. I didn't know he had such a huge problem with trust, just like me.
We are more a like then I thought, but it makes me love him even more.
"I love you too much to leave you, it just hurt when you acted the way you did, y'know?" I said.
