I Will Catch You If You Fall (ON HOLD)

IWCYIYF Part 6;

IWCYIYF Part 6;

The music played loudly as I steadied myself walking along the grass in these heels.

As I met up with old friends, and recconected with some new ones from LA, I strode confidently. It was already a half hour into the party and I hadn't seen Justin or the tagalong puppy yet.

I walked across the rock pathway to the hot tub area to search for him when I found my best friend from Atlanta, Rachel, cutting herself a slice of red velvet "LA Baby!" cake that was on the table.

"Hey girl!" She wrapped me in a hug and ditched the cake. "How's LA been?"

I smiled back at her. "You know, usual. I haven't had much time to really go out, just to IHOP."

She nodded. "I heard. I mean I saw pictures."

"What? Pictures of what?" I was alarmed.

"You mean you didn't see any? The picture of you and Justin walking into IHOP this morning are plastered all over the internet."

I groaned. A taste of Hollywood and I've been here for two days. "That's lovely."

She patted my arm reassuringly. "It'll be fine."

I nodded, wanting to dismiss the topic. "So, wanna see my room?"

"Absolutely! If it's even HALF as breathtaking as the rest of the house I might die!"

"Oh, it's better."

I led her up the stairs when the front door swung open. I looked behind me to see who it was and the one and only Jelena emerged.

Selena was decked out in a white, flowy dress with black accents and white strappy heels. Justin was in jeans, a white plain tee and a red vest with all this gold jewelry. I immediately turned pale when I saw him.

"Keep walking, up up up," I motioned for Rachel to walk faster.

She turned back to look at me with a questioning look and her eyes sped to Justin and Selena's and she started gushing, being she'd never met either.

"Ohmygod Caitlin please please PLEASE introduce me to them. I will die!" She screeched.

"Rachel..." I sighed.

"Pwease?" She pleaded.

I rolled my eyes. "Fine," as I turned down the stairs to greet them.

"Hey Justin," I gave him a smile, as his eyes questioned mine. I remembered how I ditched him at IHOP this morning and looked innocently at Rachel. "This is Rachel, she wanted to meet you."

"Hi Rachel," He smiled and hugged her as Selena watched. Looking closely I saw her lightly kick Justin after he hugged her. "Can I sign something?"

She nodded vigorously. "Please," as he signed her phone case.

"I just love your outfit!" Selena smiled at me when Rachel and Justin took pictures. "Who's it by?"

I studdered. "Umm, Forever 21?" I cocked an eyebrow. The world wasn't rich, sweetie. This house was enough for me.

I saw her flinch. "Oh," She gave me a slightly disgusted look. "I stopped shopping there when I turned 14."

I snarled. "Right before you turned into a slut, right?" I spat, disgust dripping with every syllable I pronounced.

She smiled sarcastically. "Says the one that broke Justin's heart."

At this point, Justin and Rachel were both watching as I took a step closer. "Listen, hoe," I growled under my breath. "You say you make him happy, but atleast I did the same without undressing."
