He's Just... Dangerous

Chapter 10

Nicolette's POV

"Hey Nicolette." Someone said. I stopped kissing Justin and turned around. It was Chris.

"Uh. Hi, Chris." I said quietly. Justin scoffed.

"What are you doing here?" He asked rudely to Chris.

"Um, I came to apologise to you guys, but mostly Nicolette. Can I please talk to her alone?" He asked. I nodded, but Justin shook his head.

"Nicolette, I'm not letting you be alone with this guy. Who knows what he'll do." Justin said with panic in his voice.

"Justin, I'm not going to do anything. I just need to talk to her alone." Chris said sadly. Justin looked at him, then looked at me. I nodded. He let go of my hand he was firmly holding onto. I got up and followed Chris.

"So, um I have a question. It's a kind of question I've been thinking about for a while now. And I've been wanting to ask you first."

"Um, okay, so what is the question?" He hesitated.

"Should I go to rehab?" I was shocked by his question. He hasn't ever talked to me about anything besides sexual stuff, let alone something like rehab.

"Um, I don't really think you should." I said.

"Nicolette, I'm not going to do anything to you if you say yes. It's just a question. I don't really know if I should go, but I want to, because I wanna change. I want to get a girlfriend. A real one, and someday, settle down, get married, and have a family." He said. I was really surprised to hear that from him. He's never been so sincere. I like this side of him. The good side of him.

"Um well, honestly, I think you should. You do need some help." I said, trying not to sound mean. He nodded.

"Yeah, I better go, I'm gonna go fill an application it for the rehab center downtown."

"Um, that's all you came here for?" I asked him. He nodded.

"And can you not tell Justin about this conversation? I don't really want him to know I'm going to rehab." He said. I nodded

"No problem."

"Yeah, bye Nicolette." He came towards me with arms open. I almost rejected his hug, but decided to be nice. I walked into his arms and embraced him back. He pulled back and kissed my forehead. I smiled and he made his way downstairs. I heard the door close and I walked back into my room only to be tackled to the floor by justin kissing me all over.

"Oh my gosh, you're alive, I thought he took you, and ran away."

"Haha, Justin you're over exaggerating about this. He just wanted to ask me something." I smiled. He looked suspicious.

"What did he ask you?" He asked me.

"Something he doesn't want you to know about." I said back. He sighed.

"Fine can we at least finish the movies?" He asked. I nodded and soon we were cuddling in my bed watching the movies he set out.
