Forever

Chapter 7

I wake up in our bed and Justin isn't in here but I smell food so he must be in the kitchen cooking. I check my phone and there's a message from my mom.

* I'll be there at about 11:30 so I need you to pick me up at the airport.

I don't know what to tell her. I don't think that me and Justin are back together. I shake the thought from my head and get up to go to the bathroom. It's 9 right now so that gives me a little bit of time to think of what to say before I get her. I brush my teeth and quickly wash my face. I go downstairs to find 2 plates sitting on the table. "Good morning" I say to Justin who is putting the dishes in the sink. He turns around and a broad smile spreads across his face. "Good morning" he says. He walks over to me and hugs me tightly. He must've really missed me I think to myself. I hug him back and it's so comforting. We finally pull apart and sit down. "Hope your hungry" he says grinning at me. I'm not really but since he woke up to make breakfast for me I politely smile and eat. Justin chuckles and I look up at him. I raise my eyebrows "Something funny?" I ask. He shakes his head "Yeah you are". "And how is that?" I ask with a smile on my face. "Because when you eat your face is adorable" he says. "Why thank you" I say. We finish the rest of our breakfast making small talk and since Justin cooked I decide to wash the dishes. I'm drying the last dish and Justin comes and sits on the counter next to the sink. "So..." He says. "So what?" I ask. "What do you think about us?" He asks looking desperate. As soon as the words come out of his mouth it brings my mood down. "Umm I don't know" I say. I really don't want to talk about this right now because my mother is coming and i haven't seen her in forever.

"Oh I forgot to tell you earlier that I have to pick up my mom from the airport she came down to see me" I tell Justin, walking upstairs to change. "Okay, I'll go with you" I hear him say. We leave at 10:15 and head towards the airport. The whole ride there we don't say anything to each other. We finally get there and I see my mom sitting inside reading a cover girl magazine. "Mom!" I scream as we walk in. She looks up immediately and stands as I walk over to her. I hug her tightly. "OMG I've missed you so much" She says to me. "Me too" I say. We let go of each other and when she sees Justin her grin disappears. He walks over to grab her bags. "Nice to see you Mrs. Cornett" he says to my mother and gives her a quick kiss on the cheek. "Nice to see you to Justin" she says but I know she's mad at him for what he did and probably mad at me too for still staying with him. Justin starts to walk outside with the bags and me and my mom follow behind him at a slower pace. "Are you crazy why are you guys still together?" my mom ask me as soon as Justin is out of earshot range. "Calm down we're not together I'm just-", "You're just what waiting to see if he's changed!?" she says in a annoyed voice. "Maybe... and besides the fact he is still the father of our kids" I say. When I bring up the children her whole mood changes from angry to a sort of happiness. She always wanted grandchildren. "We will finish talking later" she says and I feel a weight lift off of my shoulders. We get into the car and we drive back home not saying a word to one another.

Justin gets my mom's bags out of the car and we go inside and Justin is being such a gentleman, offering my mom things and comforting her. This is the Justin that I fell in love with. "Would you like anything to drink Mrs.Cornett?" Justin asks. "Please, call me Mandy and no thank you". "Well if there's anything you need just ask" Justin says and he goes upstairs. My mom sits on the couch and I walk over to sit next to her. I flop down like I'm to heavy to hold myself up. "So back to you and Justin... are you going to stay with him?" she asks. I feel a little annoyed and I just don't want to talk about this anymore. "Yes" I finally say so she can leave me alone. "Why, are you crazy... what else does he have to do to you before you realize that he's not good for you?" She says. I sigh. "It only happened this one time... I don't think he would do that or anything to screw up our relationship again" I say. She stares at me as if she hadn't heard a single thing I've just said. "That's what you think but it's only a matter if time before he does it again... Guys will be guys and-". "No he won't do it again now shut up and leave me alone about it!!" I scream at my mother and leave the couch going upstairs to our room. I slam the door and Justin walks over to me. "Selena what's wrong?" he asks with a confused look on his face. "Nothing, I'll tell you later" I say to him because I'm fuming and I don't want to talk about it. All of a sudden Justin pins my hands and my hips to the wall. A smile spreads across his face "You're not going anywhere until you tell me what you're so mad about" he says. "I said I will tell you later, now please let go" I plead. I'm really not in the mood to play right now but then he starts to move his hips back and forth and I start laughing. "You're so immature"I say to him and he laughs and then picks me up and carries me over to the bed, laying me down and he right beside me. "So what happened?" Justin asks again. I sigh. "Okay so I told my mom everything that happened between you and me" as soon as the words leave my mouth Justin goes pale. "I also told her that I was pregnant, but I'm so mad because she expects me to leave you but I believe that everyone deserves a second chance because it will always be that one time where do something that you will regret for the rest of your life" I say to Justin. He visibly relaxes and he sits on the bed placing me into his lap. "So does that mean we're back together?" he asks raising his eyebrows desperately. "No, not yet" I say. He lets out a deep sigh and has a look of frustration.I start laughing. "What's so funny?"Justin asks a little to forcefully. "Of course we're back together dumby, but you better not do it again or I swear I'm leaving you!" I say. A slow but sexy smile spreads across his face splits his face in 2. He kisses me making me feel like I found my missing part. I haven't kissed him in days and it feels so good to be back in his arms. "Sex later!" he says and I know it's not a request. "I just don't know what to do right now" I say. It's really frustrating. "Just sit down and talk to her and tell her why you are staying with me" He says to me. I sigh this is stressing me out. I get up and walk towards the door. "Well here goes nothing" I say as I open the door. "I believe in you" Justin says playfully. We both start laughing and then I walk out and close the door. I slowly walk downstairs to see if my mom is still down there. She's sitting on the couch watching tv. "Ahem" I say to grab her attention. She turns her head at me and she looks really calm. "I'm sorry about what I said earlier it's just that there's so much going on with me right now. I have to figure out what the babies are and then buy their clothes and cribs and car seats and I just don't think that I'm ready for kids" I say walking over to the couch sitting next to my mother. "Oh it's okay I can be pushy some times" she says to me. "Trust me you can get through it, if you ever need any help then just call me and I'll be down as soon as possible" she says to me. A boost of confidence runs through me but I still don't think I can do it. Tears start to run down my face non stop and I put my head in my hands. "Oh honey it'll be okay...don't worry it will be a lot easier than you think" she says as she pulls me into a tight hug. "Mom I can't do this" I say to her. She hugs me tigther. "Sure you can, you have Justin to help you" She says to me. I don't know what to say so I just keep quiet. She gets up off of the couch. "Well I have some things to do while I'm down here so I'll be right back... can I borrow your car?" She asks me. I shake my head because I can't say anything. She kisses me on the cheek and leaves. I get up and go back upstairs. I walk in the room and Justin is on his phone god knows what he's doing. When he sees that i've been crying he walks over to me and wipes the tears from my face. "Baby what happened?" He asks. "We talked and she accepted my decision but I just don't think that we're ready to be parents" I say looking into his eyes. He doesen't say anything so he's probably thinking the same thing. "But we can get through it like we do everything else" he says trying to cheer me up. "Yeah I guess" I say and I go lay down. I'm overwhelmed and I just want to sleep right now. I lie down and Justin lays next to laying my head on his chest. I slowly drift off to sleep as I listen to his calm heart beat.
