"You won't regret this..."

I put the white dress on over my bare body, before looking in the body length mirror seeing my outfit was finished. I had on a white dress that went just above the knee and black flats. Believe me when I say I never ever dressed like this on purpose because it wasn't my style. I was told to dress this way simply because everyone else was too. I guess it was tradition for the crew to get dressed up the last night of the tour. It wasn't the fancy type of dress up, but where girls would wear dresses or skirts and the guys would wear jeans and flannels. So it was basically a casual dress up.

I grabbed my iPhone and walked out of the room. I met up with the rest of the crew who all smiled as I entered. I walked right over to Justin which was unusual on my part. I had started to get use to becoming his friend again, but it was still weird to me. I smiled up at Justin as he gave me a side hug. I then linked my arm with his before we walked out of the room to his last show on the Believe Tour.

Grabbing a bottle of water from the refreshment table, I twisted the cap open only to take a big gulp. It felt amazing as it ran down my tongue and my throat considering I was really thirsty. I haven't had a drink all day. I just haven't had free time because I was caught up with Justin forcing me around the arena to show me hidden places.

There was about one gulp left for me to take and just as I tipped the bottle into my mouth I got pushed causing the water to spill all over my clothes.

"What the fuck!" I screamed wiping the water off of my clothes, but it wasn't really working.

I scowled as I looked up to see who was stupid enough to bump into me only to meet with Justin, who had his hand covering his mouth as if he was trying his best not to laugh.

"Do you think this is funny, rat?" I asked him using his old nickname.

To be honest, I haven't really forgiven him fully and he knows that. But I can't just let go what he did to me. It's imprinted in my mind and it still hurts. Even when I talk to him it kills me because all I can hear is his words.

He nodded his head then suddenly he bursted into laughter causing everyone to look over at us in amusement. I smirked knowingly to myself and reached my hand across the table grabbing another water. As Justin was still laughing, I unscrewed the cap and threw it down onto the floor. I stepped closer to Justin and tapped him on his shoulder. He looked up at me still laughing so I did what I had to do.

I spilled the water all over him starting with his precious hair. He gasped as I did so with the water falling freely down his body. I couldn't help but to get angry afterwards. I mean I know I had gotten him back for doing that to me, but I was still pissed. I had these weird mood swings ever since I used again. I seriously need to see a doctor about it because I'm constantly fighting with not only other people, but myself.

"That's what you get you dumb fuck." I scolded him before turning on my heel and stomping away.

I don't know why but I was furious and before things could get out of hand I needed to get away from him and everyone else.

"Lexi, wait!" I heard Justin scream along with feet hitting the floor.

I knew then that he was following me which made my blood boil. I stopped in my tracks and turned around just as Justin approached me.

"Don't call me Lexi." I said through gritted teeth.

I was glaring at him and by the look in his eyes I could tell he was confused and hurt with my words, but he deserved it.
