I drive to the coffee shop justin asked me to come to, I've never been here it looks so nice inside I see Justin sitting down and I sit by him.
"Now what do you have to say?"
"I was angry so I lashed out and made that rumor."
"That's your excuse?" I got up and was ready to go.
Justin pulled me back. "No listen don't go I haven't told you my whole story." I sat back down and waited for him to speak up.
"Emma I can't tell you here can you go up the mountain with me?"
"Justin your having me jump from place to place."
He looked at me and said "please I don't want people to see me break down and cry." We both got up and got in my car and drove up the mountain. We parked got out and sat down looking at the town.
"I only know how to make people feel bad." Justin just blurted out. "I've never told people how I truly feel or felt. Everyone just thinks I'm a happy guy with the best girlfriend a great family and good friends."
"What do you mean?" I said with a worried look on my face.
"At home I'm never happy my mom has a boyfriend and he beats me all the time and my mom does nothing but look all she cares about is her stupid fucking boyfriend." Justin started crying.
"Justin it's gonna be okay. You can stay at my house if you ever need a place to stay." I pulled Justin close and hugged him while he was letting it all out.
"Emma why do you wanna help me if I've been nothing but a dick to you?"
"Because I believe in second chances and right now your going through a lot."
"Thank you, Emma I don't know what I would do without you."
Justin lifted his head from my shoulder and grabbed my face and just kissed me. I wanted to let go but I just couldn't. I finally got him off. "Justin I can't do this you have Jessica and she's my friend I can't do that." He looked down and said "but I've fallen out of love with her, I'm in love with you. You're different and you actually listen to my problems and never try and change the subject."
This time I kissed him and I just didn't want to let go I felt safe when I was with him and I knew what I was doing was wrong but I couldn't help it. But we stopped and I dropped him off at his house and I went home. I got in my room and my phone rung.
It was a text message from Justin.

I went downstairs and opened the door justin ran to me and hugged me while he was crying. I started tearing up because what he is going through we just stood there hugging each other for 10 minutes I took him upstairs and he just looked around the room.
"I like your room."
"Thank you."
Justin set his stuff down and took off his shoes.
"Where can I change?"
"Uhm the bathroom is right there."
"You have a bathroom in your room."
"Yea what's wrong?"
"What if you take a shit doesn't it stink up your room?"
I started laughing so hard and playfully punched him in his arm.
"Shut up Justin."
Justin got out the bathroom and set up the floor.
"Justin you don't have to sleep on the floor."
"Where do I sleep?" He said looking a little confused.
"You can sleep with me."
"Are you sure?"
"Yea I'm sure."
