Sorry • Jariana Story

It's been a few hours since Josh came over. All I've been doing is watching movies all day. There isn't anything to do these past few years.

It was 5pm, meaning that Justin has to come over and bring me pizza, maybe hang. I hear a knock on the door. Speak of the devil.

I walked over to the door and opened it. There, stands the handsome Justin with boxes of pizza in his hand. He didn't wear his uniform.

"Want me to pay?" I asked.

"No, it's the end of my shift. I'll be fine." Justin smiles as he follows me into the living room.

We sat down and started eating pizza. We watched movies at the same time.

"I've noticed you eat pizza everyday." Justin chuckles.

"I do." I said, taking another bite.

"You're so adorable and so so small and skinny, how do you not gain weight?" Justin asked.

"What is this, health class?" I giggled after I finished the bite, "I don't know. I don't gain weight for some reason."

"Oh, wow. You're lucky. I try to keep my abs but I think I'm going to shape into that dad body soon." Justin laughs.

"I don't believe you!" I giggled again.

"Hmm, want me to show you my abs?" Justin smirked.

"What?" I said.

He lifts up his shirt. I swear my jaw dropped. Justin lifted his shirt back down.

"Shook?" Justin says.

"I'm shook." I said.

"Yeah, like I said I probably will get that dad body soon."

"It looks like you won't get that dad body for 7 more years." I said. "Are you 23 or something?"

"Mhm. How about you?" Justin asked, taking a bite.

"I'm going to be 25 in a few months." I smiled.

I swear the god he almost choked on his pizza. "Almost 25?! I swear you look like you're fucking 17 or 18 or something."

I blushed a little. "Is that a compliment?"

"Yeah, of course. I'm saying you look YEARS younger."

"Thanks." I blushed again. "You're way more attractive than all my exes. Trust me."

"I doubt it." He says, his face going red.

"What? It's true!" I said, slapping his arm.

"You're way hotter than my ex, Ariana." Justin says.

"You're just saying that to be nice. How many exes have you had?" I asked.

"If you didn't notice, I said 'ex' not 'exes' pay attention, you cutie." Justin says.

"Oh. I bet your ex is way prettier than me." I said.

"Oh hell no. She looks like Fiona from Shrek." Justin choked on his water.

I burst out laughing.

"I have an uncomfortable question." I said.

"Hm?" He says, taking another bite of pizza.

"You a virgin?"

"As much as I hate to say this, yes." Justin says.

My jaw dropped, "I'm shocked."

"What, are you?" Justin blinked.

"No." I say awkwardly. "I did it with all of my past boyfriends. But let's say my relationships never ended well."

"Oh. Sorry to hear that." Justin says.

"See, they are such nice guys. But I'm the trouble and mess in the relationships. I'm the screw up." I said, looking down at the carpet.

"Don't say that, Ariana!" Justin slapped my arm.

"It's true though. I'm the reason why the relationship always end. I always missed their calls for months when they're away. I always come off mean at some times. I can sometimes treat the people that I love like jewelry. I always never believed in things, and that made my ex break up with me. I also never notice how bad shit they go through and I'm too blind to realize it." I said, spilling the tea.

"Ariana. Don't cry." Justin says, wiping the tears I didn't know that were there, away.

"I- I'm a mess. I'm still upset about my exes. To think that I'm the one that ruined the relationships I've had." I said, crying a bit more.

"Don't say that you're the one that ruin your relationships, because you're not. Everything happens for a reason." Justin says.

I didn't say anything, which made Justin attack me with a hug. I cried onto his shoulder.

We both pulled away. We stared into each other's eyes, for what seemed like hours. But I couldn't help but want him to kiss me... or to kiss him.

I noticed that he glanced down to my lips. I looked down at his lips. I can imagine how soft they are. Justin licked his lips.

We both leaned in and connected our lips. We closed our eyes and enjoyed the moment. Justin's lips were so soft. The softest I've ever felt on my lips.
