My World Your World Our World

Ch. 8

Brendon's POV!!!

I really hope that Justin takes my advice and gets away from Rebel. 

She doesn't need him in her life and he doesn't need her. 

I plan on talking to Justin about it today. We have been traveling for a long time.. from Cali. to New york is 2,913 miles away. We have walked to a place called West Virginia, so I am guessing we will collapse somewhere near Virginia. 

We reach this small town called Chilhowie. It's run down and silent... But there are a lot of empty buildings. We walked down the supposed main street, and found a 2 story building that looked like an apartment building. We decided to stay there for the night and call it a night. I plan on calling Justin outside to talk to him. The sooner, the better. 

"Hey Justin, can I talk to you outside?" I asked him.

"Uh, yeah sure." He told me.

"So I know you and Rebel are kind of becoming a thing now, and I just want to tell you that you are making a huge mistake." 

"How so?" He asked me.

"Well, two years ago, I asked her out... Long story short, she said yes. We dated for about 5 months before things started getting bad. I would go out for a long time, just having fun and being me, and I'd come home to yelling and a fight. She's messed up in the head man. I'm telling you, what happened that night, triggered something in her, and she's never been the same since." I told him.

"Well, I didn't fall in love with who Rebel used to be. I fell in love with her, running up to Alex to tell her that this is where we would spend the rest of our lives. I fell in love with the crazy fast reflexes she's built with. I fell in love with how she was braver than the both of us and Alex, to want to go into the shack, not knowing what was in there. I fell in love with the fact that she doesn't love easily. She is a challenge, she's a lion, that I was placed here, to tame." He told me. 

I didn't know what to say about that. He loves her, and loves her hard. 

I wish I felt the same about Rebel when we were together. But I have Alex now, and She's all I could ask for.

"I am just saying. Maybe, until you know for sure, and she knows for sure that you guys want to be together forever, maybe you shouldn't date." I told him.

"Yeah? Well, maybe you and Alex should mind your own relationship, and leave ours alone! In fact, you guys have enough problems as is." He snapped at me.

I decided that walking away was the best option. It was that, or fight him, and I'm not a sissy, but he looked like fair trade if we fought. 

Rebel's POV!!

"Okay, me and Justin will take the apartment beside of y'alls, and you and Brendon sleep here." I told Alex.

"OOOOHHH OKAY!!" She replied.

I walked outside through the back door, and waited for Justin before entering into the other apartment. 

He came to me, and looked mad.

I asked him what was wrong and he simply shook his head. We would talk about it later I'm sure, but right now, I needed to find out how to get in...The door was bolted.

The stupid thing about the people that "bolted" the door, was the fact that they bolted it to wood. Not the bricks. I just stood back, took a step, and kicked the door really hard. 

It opened with ease.

"Damn" Justin said.

"Oh shut it" I told him.
