"Hi baby." Justin says holding a daisy in his hand with a smile on his face I have grown so fond of.
"Hi." I say hugging him. "Come inside." I motion him to come in which he does. I grab a small vase to put the single daisy into and he stands in the kitchen doorway watching me.
"So I was thinking... maybe instead of going out tonight we could go back to my place and hang out since my parents won't be home." He asks me and I get a bad feeling in my stomach. I want to make him happy but I don't feel comfortable enough being with him alone... like really alone. "What are you thinking about?" He asks walking up to me and looking into my eyes.
"I just um... really wanted to go watch that movie."
"If that's what you want to do, then we can grow watch it. Anything for you." He grabs my hands and I smile. "Lets go. We can grab some dinner before." We walk to his car hand in hand.

I wake up blinking my eyes from the brightness. The was our last good date. After that was when I actually agreed to go to his house and he tried to have sex with me and slapped me when I didn't. Of course I forgave him right away because he told me countless of times that he loved me and I believed him. I believed him because I was naive. I forgave him because forgiveness is my greatest flaw. I forgive people even when they don't deserve it. Anyways, I miss what we had. I miss all the laughs and hugs and kisses. The first four months were great. He was sweet and caring. He'd express his affection all the time. He was such a good person... then his true colors began to show.
*bzzzzz* My thoughts are interrupted when my phone vibrates... speaking of the devil. I press ignore on my phone and notice that there are almost thirty calls from him and I have texts from Katie and Kelly asking if everything was ok since I hadn't called them. I dial Katies number and wait for to pick up but she doesn't so I call Kelly who doesn't pick up either. I get up and make my bed. I walk to the bathroom thats in my room and wash my face and brush my teeth. I go to my drawer and put on a bra and some yoga pants in case Robert or Victoria are downstairs and put on my glasses before making my way down the stairs into the kitchen. I smell coffee and bacon and see Robert cooking. "Morning." I say to Robert and he turns with a bowl and whisk in his hand.
"Good morning. Did you sleep well?"
"Yeah. Pretty good. Did you?"
"Yeah."
"I um... didn't know you cooked."
"Not really. Just breakfast foods really. Victoria I the real chef."
"Yeah. Um... where's Victoria?"
"She went shopping. Her friend is coming over with her daughter for dinner."
"The one from yesterday?"
"Yeah."
"Okay." After he was finished cooking he sat down with me and we ate breakfast in silence. We did the dishes and he helped me to set up my laptop and got Word Documents for school and he helped me to set up my accounts on my new phone. I decided to put up the pictures of me, Kelly, and Katie and the pictures of me and my mom. I hear a lot of noise downstairs and check to see Victoria and Robert walking in with groceries and decide to help them out.
"Do you need help cooking?" I ask Victoria.
"If you don't mind. I can do it by myself though." She starts to unpack.
"I'd like to help." She nods and I help her unpack. "So um... how many months are you?"
"Seven months today actually. I'm due in February."
"Oh that's coming up."
"Yeah it is." She says while cutting peppers and I help her cut onions.
"So you said had another child coming?"
"Children actually. I have twins. One boy and one girl."
"How old?"
"Five but they'll be six in May."
"That's good... They'll be here tomorrow?"
"Yes. They're coming with your grandparents."
"My grandparents?"
"You're fath... I mean Roberts parents?"
"Oh..."
"They really are lovely."
"Yeah..."
"Okay well I am done for now if you want to relax. I'll cook before they get here."
"Okay."
I go upstairs to my room and turn on the TV passing the channels until I land on The Lion King and fall asleep while watching it.
