Nothing happened as I thought it would. Justin didn't even kiss me on the lips, or anywhere else going down. He just kissed my cheeks, forehead, and bit my earlobes. Justin kept telling me that no one needed to know about us. So, that happened. The only man I ever loved, is now secretly mine. I'm not going to listen to Justin. I'm going to confront Andrew about him abusing Justin. He doesn't deserve any of that, he's pure and innocent. I'm not going to let any of that slide pass me as if it was nothing. Justin thinks it's nothing, but it's everything.

Now, it's the morning after the night of clubbing. I slept, not for long though. I'm both a night and morning person. I'm always tired during the afternoon, it isn't bad. That's just me, and I'm happy with myself now. I don't feel bad. I feel confident. I have the man of my dreams, though it's in secret.. I'm going to tear Andrew down for whatever he's doing to Justin.

There's a knock on my door. It's not even 7 A.M. yet. But I do the usual, "Come in" as I turn toward the door. There, a Justin walks in with a small smile on his face. He sits next to me, and he hugs me. He kisses my forehead and holds my hands. I can't help but to smile and feel satisfied. Justin sets his free hand on my cheek and smiles. "Good morning Jason. How are you doing? Do you think it was a drunken mistake I did?" He asks, biting his lip.

I shake my head and chuckle. "No. Was it?" My smile fades, and my eyes start to look away from him.

Justin grabs my face, and makes me look at him. "No, it wasn't. I wasn't lying, or drunk. So..Here we are. We're doing it."

I nod and smile. "We can step out sooner than expected." I start to explain my plan to take down Andrew. I didn't even get to start before Justin interrupts me.

"What do you mean? Are you making me break up with Andrew? You know I can't do that, we have a baby on the way." Justin looks worried.

I sigh, nodding. "You don't need to be abused. Especially when you're both waiting for your baby to arrive. You don't want to bring a baby into a negative environment. I'm going to tell him I know what he's doing to you. It's not right Justin."

Justin shakes his head, as if he was paranoid. "Jason, I told you. It is fine. You don't need to do anything about it. I'm handling it just fine. You'll get on his bad side. Don't you care about that?" He asks, looking at me directly in my eyes. He's obviously worried for the both of us. Now I'm in a dilemma. If I defend Justin, Andrew might go after me too. But, it'll be worth it. 

I shake my head, standing up from the bed. "No, Justin. You need to get out of this whole thing. I don't care if Andrew murders me in front of you. I'll get you out of that relationship." I say, sternly. I even set my hands on my hips. 

Justin stands up next to me. "Jason. I said no. I'm handling it myself. How many times do I have to say it? I'm going to marry him, and that's final. I know you love me, but I love Andrew too." He explains, and I can see tears starting to form. One slips out of his eye, and my heart sinks.

I reach out for him, but he removes my hand. "I love you." I blurt out, "I don't want you marrying him. Though we just started this whole mess not even 24 hours ago.. I've always wanted you for myself. I'm so jealous, and I just want you, and only you. What more can I say about that? You're the one I've really ever..loved, you can see that. I care for you, and I want you happy." I swallow the lump in my throat.

Justin smiles and looks away. "It's too early in the morning for this. I know you love me Jason. I love your brother. I am happy. I like you. I'm working through the unimaginable, but I'm managing it. I think we should take it slower. Look at us, Jason. We act so awkward in front of your family, and now here we are. We're talking and you're wanting me to leave your brother for you. I can handle it. Don't you love me? You said you love me."
