Love Will Remember (A Justin Bieber Story)

Chapter 32

December 17

Olivia sits on James' kitchen counter. 

"Justin got into a fight with Jinsu at school the other day," she tells him.

 "Again?" he says.

 "This time was different though," she says. 

"How?" he asks. 

"Justin nearly took that kid to the hospital. I've never seen him like that. He had this wild look in his eyes. If Caitlin hadn't pulled him away, I don't think he would of stopped." James puts a cherry in her mouth and she pulls the stem out. 

"You should talk to him, make sure he's okay," she says. 

"I will," he says. He places his hands on her legs and kisses her lips. She giggles and they continue to kiss.

"Anyone home?" Caitlin calls as she enters Justin's house. She finds Justin on the couch still undressed. It is after school. 

"How long have you been here?" she asks him. He lifts his head a little then drops it back down. 

"Since monday," he says. She walks over to him and sits at the edge of the couch. He tries to sit up but just falls back down.

 "Have you eaten anything today?" she asks him. He shakes his head. 

"Do you want me to make you a sandwich?" she asks.

 "Sure," he says. She goes over to the kitchen and puts together a sandwich for him.

She comes back over to him with it on a plate. 

"You know you don't have to keep doing this," he says. 

"Doing what?" she asks. She hands him the sandwich and he sits up. She takes a seat next to him. 

"Being so nice to me, helping me out, coming over," he says.

 "What kind of friend would I be if I wasn't here for you," she says. He takes a bite and manages a forced smile. He wears only his boxers. 

"What have people at school been saying?" he asks. She looks down at the ground. 

"Tell me, I can take it," he says. 

"They think you're possessed or something," she says. A laugh erupts from both of their mouths. It seems wrong yet right at the same time.

"You been writing a lot?" she asks him. He nods. 

"Can you play one for me?" she asks. He nods. After he eats they go to his room where he grabs his guitar. He sits on his bed with his guitar on his lap and Caitlin sitting next to him. He strums to guitar and sings. 

"Give me love like her,

'Cause lately I've been waking up alone, paint splattered teardrops on my shirt, Told you I'd let them go,
And that I'll fight my corner, Maybe tonight I'll call ya, After my blood turns into alcohol, No, I just wanna hold ya. Give a little time to me or burn this out, We'll play hide and seek to turn this around, All I want is the taste that your lips allow, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My, my, my, my, oh give me love. Give me love like never before, 'Cause lately I've been craving more, And it's been a while but I still feel the same, Maybe I should let you go, You know I'll fight my corner, And that tonight I'll call ya, After my blood is drowning in alcohol, No I just wanna hold ya. Give a little time to me or burn this out, We'll play hide and seek to turn this around, All I want is the taste that your lips allow, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, Give a little time to me, or burn this out, We'll play hide and seek to turn this around, All I want is the taste that your lips allow, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My, my, my, my, oh give me love, My my, my, my, oh give me love."

His face is only inches away from Caitlin. She looks at his hazel eyes. They both lean in, knowing its wrong. Their lips meet and he puts his hand on her neck. It's been months since he kissed a girl. He puts his guitar to the side without breaking the kiss. They aren't thinking, just doing. He lays down on top of her still kissing her. In that moment, they are teenagers again. Justin pulls away.

 "This is wrong," he says. She looks down.

 "I should get going," she says as she gets up. She feels ashamed at her feelings for him. To her this was more than just a kiss to forget the pain. She still feels the sparks. She still loves him but she can't let him know.
