One Time, One Love, One Life

Chapter 2 - The Bonfire

Belle's Point Of View

It's been 2 days since that thing happened at the party and I haven't spoken to Justin. Things were just kinda awkward so if I see him it's going to be really weird. Well at least that's what I think. Plus, I'm not really interested about having a boyfriend right now. I just got out of a bad relationship 3 months ago. I don't think i'm ready. I just need some time.

"Belle! Hello! Belle?!" Jaelynn shouted. Which made me snap out of my thoughts.

"Yeah. Huh? What?" I said. She had a confused look.

"Are you okay? You were all the sudden quiet." She said. While she had a pencil in her hand.

"Yeah. I'm fine. I was just thinking about something" I said. Shit. Now she's going to ask what I was thinking about. Great.

"Oh. What were you thinking about? You were really in a deep thought there" She said, motioning her hands at me with the pencil in her hand.

"Uh- Nothing "I said trying to convince her I wasn't thinking of something really important.

"Oh come on, Belle. I know you too well. Now spill" She said while she crawled up next to my bed, waiting for me to answer.

"Fine." I said. It came more like a whisper. Not sure if she heard it but oh well.

"Okay. So remember Justin's party, two days ago?" I said. looking at the wall behind her.

"Yeah" She replied

"Well, when I went outside to get some air. I was sitting on the grass in the front yard then Justin came and sat right next to me and we talked. And he.. called me beautiful. But I didn't believe it at first but then he said it again and this time he was serious.." I said taking a deep breath. Why is this making me nervous. It feels really weird.

"Oh my god." Was all I heard from Jaelynn. She was just as shocked as me.

"Okay so, he touched my cheek and caressed it. That's when Chaz came and scared the shit out of us. I hugged Justin really tight and he did the same. I didn't really know or care what I was doing I was just really scared. And after the Usher called us and we went inside. Justin and I didn't really talk after that, nor make an eye contact. Since then we haven't talked or seen each other." I finished. I just looked at her. She was going to say something but nothing came out of her mouth for like 10 seconds.

"Oh my god! He- " Jaelynn finally managed to say.

"He what?" I said interrupting her.

"He likes you! Belle!" She yelled. She started running and jumping around my room. She's weird and crazy but I love her as my sister and bestfriend.

"What?! No! He would never like me!" I said while I walked towards my closet.

"Yes. He does! He called you beautiful. Who would call you beautiful randomly and not like you? She said walking towards me.

"Justin. Justin Bieber." I said looking for an outfit.

"Whatever. He likes you. Where are you going anyway?" She asked leaning againt the closet door.

"Ryan is gonna have a bonfire at his house and i'm going." 

"Am I invited?" She asked walking towards my bed.

"Yeah. And I'll be right back I gotta get dressed" I replied and she just nodded.

I wore a white sequined tank top paired with a blue cardigan, black skinny jeans, and white vans. It was more like a casual and simple outfit. I put some light makeup on and side braided my hair.

"Ready Jaelynn?"

"Leggo!" She responded.

------------

"Hey guys!" Ryan greeted us. And pulled us in for a quick hug then released us.

"Heyy! How's it going" I asked while we went to his living and just stood there.

"It's been good. You?" He replied

"Great" I gave him a small smile.

"Let's go outside. The fire should be big now." Ryan said. He motioned us towards the door.

"Wait here okay. I'll go get the bros upstairs" He said and we both nodded in agreement.

Ryan walked upstairs and Jaelynn and I just stood there. Until she decided to speak.

"Justin is here, You know that right?" She asked while she had both hand in her pockets.

"Yeah and..?" I whispered. Not too loud that someone can hear it nearby.

"I thought you didn't want to see him?" She said in a quietly.

"Not really. And I don't like him like that so it's cool." I said. Then all of them walked in. I didn't look at Justin. I just looked at Ryan and Chaz.

"Like who?" Chaz said walking towards me

"Oh it's nothing" I said. Trying to act like it was nothing.

"Alright guys let's go." Ryan walked out first then me, Jaelynn, followed by Chaz and Justin. We all sat around the fire and just chilled. I sat next to Jaelynn and to my right was Ryan.

"Guys! I've got an idea! let's play truth or dare!" Chaz yelled causing us to jump a little out off our chairs.

"Good idea !" Jaelynn replied. Is she kidding? I don't like playing truth or dare.

"Ok let's play" Ryan said. Justin looked at me then nodded at Ryan.

"I don't want to play. I'll just watch you guys" I said and everyone looked at me.

"You have to play or else we won't play at all" Ryan said.

"Yeah, we're not playing without you" Justin said. I just looked at him and he gave me a small smile.

"They're right. Pleasee play truth or dare with us!" Jaelynn said looking at me with her puppy eyes. She never fails to do that to me.

"Okay, fine I'll play just for you guys" I said while looking around then I sawn Justin's eyes on me. I kinda blushed. No. I can't like him. Don't do this to me now.

"Ok. Who's going to start?" Ryan asked everyone.

"I will." Justin said

"Alright" Ryan responded.

"Hmm, Chaz. Truth or Dare?" Justin asked.

"Dare. Yo! Truths are lame -o " Chaz said. He was like pumped up and ready for his dare. Oh Chaz.

"Okay, I dare you to lick someones thumb in our group for 5 seconds" Justin said. I can't believe he dared him to do that. Guys these days, I don't understand.

"Okay that's kinda gross" Chaz said while he as a disgusted look in his face which made me giggle a little.

"You have to do it. Now go!" Justin said giving a small push on Chaz's back.

"Ugh fine bro" Chaz said. Then I noticed he was walking slow towards me. Oh no. Oh god.
