Louder Than Words

Chapter 20

Selena's POV :

I lay in bed with Justin. He had his arms wrapped protectively around my waist as his lips pressed against the back of my neck. We lay their silently as we listened to my grandma yell at my mom through the phone from downstairs.
I hated the fact that me coming here only put a whole load of stress on my grandma what with her worrying about me marrying a man I don't know the fact that her own daughter was the one who was forcing me into it.
I sighed and turned around and buried my head into Justin's chest. He rubbed my back reassuringly while placing a kiss one the top of my head. I guess Justin explaining to my grandma that he's getting me out of the marriage isn't enough for her. She had to ring my mom and give her an earful about how what she's doing is bad parenting and that she's a sick human being for putting her own daughter through this.

"It'll be ok y'know." Justin murmured.

I looked up at him, "Yeah? How do you know?"

He smiled, leaning down and resting his forehead against mine, "Because I know that you won't be walking down the aisle just yet.. Me and obviously your grandma, judging by her screams are never going to let you go."

His words 'you won't be walking down the aisle just yet' replayed in my head.

What was that supposed to me?

I mean yeah, sure, I know that I'll get married someday but was he planning to be that man? To tell you the truth the thought of walking down the aisle and seeing Justin standing there waiting made my head do a leap. The feeling was amazing but I reminded myself not to get my hopes up.

"Just yet?" I questioned, my mouth speaking on its own before I had a chance to stop it.

Justin chuckled, "Mhm."

I smirked, swiftly rolling on top of him, putting my knees and both of his sides.

"Why? Do you know somebody else that I'll be marrying?" I asked innocently.

He rubbed my sides gently, grinning to himself, "Well.. There is one person that comes to mind.."

"Oh really?" I giggled, "Care to share?"

"How about you just guess?" He suggested with a playful wink.

This was going to be fun.

After naming out a ton of names, some of celebrities and some boys that we both knew, I finally gave up, laughing that the expression on his face.

"You suck at this game."

I slapped his chest playfully, "Hey!"

He chuckled, looking me dead in the eyes.

We stayed like that for a while, just staring at each other until I broke the silence.

"So.. You going to tell me who I'll be marrying in the future?"

He smiled, caressing my cheek with his hand, "I'd marry you in a heartbeat."

I smiled, leaning down and placing a soft kiss on his lips, pulling back slightly, not leaving that much space between our lips as I could still feel his breath on my skin.

"I'd marry you too." I whispered, laying my head on his chest.

I didn't see his face but I knew he had his signature smile on his lips and he held me on his body.

We both lay their happily. All thoughts and worries about the wedding and everything else seemed to disappear.
