Justins POV:

I woke up with Selena in my arms wrapped up in nothing but a silk sheet. It was 8 o’clock and my interview wasn’t until 1pm today. I wasn’t sure why I’d woken up so early since me and Selena hadn’t fallen asleep till 2 this morning. I admired her glowing skin and I moved a couple strands of hair from her face and kissed her cheek. She stirred a little bit and pulled the sheet up to her chin revealing the engagement ring I gave to her last night. It looked stunning when I bought it, and it looks even better on. I lay in bed for the next few minutes just admiring her. “Never forget how lucky you are to have her kid.” I heard Scooters voice say in my head. I knew when I heard him last say that, it was after Selena and I had finally gotten back together. I had a moment of weakness in front of him at the studio because everything still seemed so surreal that we were really a couple again. I smiled at how far we’ve come.

I sat up texted Kenny and told him to meet me with the driver out front in twenty minutes, he was just down the block and I knew he’d be up since he always wakes up at 630 every morning. I threw on a beanie and some shades, boots, and a hoodie then I quietly snuck out the door to meet Kenny downstairs, I wanted to go to the store get some groceries and wake Selena up with breakfast in bed.

Selenas POV:

“Justin come on I’m tired.” I whined I was ready to go home. We’ve been at this party for about 5 hours now and my feet were hurting and he was getting annoyingly drunk again.

“S-s-selena… quit being a party pooper and take another shot with me.” He slurred and stuttered over almost all of his words. I was drunk, but Justin was completely gone.

“Whatever Justin, see you tomorrow. Or not.” I said pushing him away from me.

Who did he think he was? Does he remember what happened the last time he got this drunk? I mean I know were not at a club, after what happened last month we decided not to go out to clubs anymore and try to fix what was left of our relationship. Before everything I didn’t mind getting drunk with Justin. It was actually fun, even though I was of age he wasn’t but he convinced me he was mature enough to handle it and I believed him. Anyways I felt bad, he was the youngest out of all his friends they were all of age. So we figured if he could keep it out of the public eye what harm would it do if he drank in the VIP section of clubs, or at house parties. But no one saw it coming that night at the club… I was hesitant to come out to the house party; me and Justin hadn’t drank together since we were at the club that one night.

“Are you sure Selena, we don’t have to go…” He said while buttoning up his shirt right before we were about to leave for the house party.

“Yes I’m sure Justin. We want this relationship to work right, we can’t just stop our lives because a stupid mistake you made.” As soon as the words escaped my lips I regretted it. But things like this have been happening for the past 4 weeks.

 I still loved Justin, but I had this bitery hatred towards him at times. Sometimes it’d just come out of nowhere. We could finally be having a decent day and I’d ruin it. But the first two weeks were awful, I felt like such a bully and I apologized every time I took a jab at him. But he always accepted it; he told me he deserved it.

After I pushed Justin away at the party I found myself in the bathroom rubbing water on my face and looking at myself in the mirror. Come on Sel stop it, you want to be able to move past this you’ve got to give him some le-way how will I ever be able to trust him if I don’t give him the chance to show me. I pulled down my tight silver dress a little since it was getting shorter the drunker I got. I fixed myself the best I could and walked out of the bathroom.
