Curvaceous Not Fat

Allison

The next week seem to come and go. Between homework, sleepovers and late night conversations I was exhausted. Jay, however, seemed to be loving every second of it. I look to my right to see Brad still fast asleep and smiled before snuggling closer to him and closing my eyes. Before I knew it my phone was waking me up. I answered it without looking at the called i.d.

"Whoever this is better be dying. I'm tired as hell." I grumbled into the phone sheepishly.

"Its me Al,"started Justin's voice making me sit up. Suddenly I was wide awake. "Jay said i should call you. I can't keep asking you two to lie to the guys for me. Tell one, tell all. I'll let you sleep now." Before I could utter a word the line went dead. I stared at my phone in disbelief.

"Who was that?" Ask Brad half sleep, but half awake.

"Justin." I replied without a second thought. When his name finally hit my ears, my eyes pop wide open. " don't be mad." For a moment it stayed silent. With tears pricking at my eyes I turned to face him. "Please don't be mad Brad."

"I'm not mad Ally, we've been expecting you guys to start talking to him again. I'm just a little disappointed. You could've told me. How long have you been talking to him?"

"A week, I think."

"You think?" He sighed. "Get dressed. It's time to end all of this nonsense. That includes Justin. We're going to Jay's house." He said nothing else as he stood up and pull up his shorts before leaving out of the room without looking back. I signed as I fell back on the bed, my head hitting the pillow harshly as I grabbed my phone. Quickly dialing Jay's number I explained to her that Brad knew. She sighed and to my surprise agreed with him. I guess it was time. About an hour later I was freshly showered, teeth brushed, hair comb and in a pair of basketball shorts and a black tank top.

"I'm ready!" I yelled going down the stairs. Stopping when I seen Dave sitting there also. "Oh hey Dave." I said hugging him tightly. I could feel his chest vibrating from his laugh beneath my cheek.

"Seems like you and Jay have been quite the little rebel lately." He joked laughing again. I smiled before breaking away and looking into,his eyes.

"You sure you guys aren't mad, right?"

"That you lied, a little. Why you lied, not really."

"Does this mean you'll give him another chance?" I asked a hopeful smile taking over my face.

"It means we'll hear him out. I can't promise anymore then that Ladybug."

"I'll take what I can get." I laughed as I hugged him one more time before we headed over to Jay's house. To my surprise everyone else was already there. Including Justin.

"See what happens when you make them choose?" Laughed Austin as I hugged him.

"It wasn't like that. It just kinda happened." I argued.

"Like everything else between you two." Countered Ash laughing. I rolled my eyes. I forgot how obnixous they could be together. Now, I'm just glad all the sneaky shit is over.

"Okay now that everyone is here, Justin plead your case." I rolled my at Dave as he sat down and I sat on his lap. Instantly he wrapped his arm around my waist letting his hand cradle my thigh. I stuck my tongue out at Brad as he sat on side of Jay and threw his arm around her shoulder. She laid in the nape of his neck as I did the same to Dave. I laughed to myself as Justin began talking.

It took him literally an hour to explain everything. He even went into deep detail about it. He also apologized to everyone. I could tell it was all sincere. Everything he said was heartfelt and a tear jerker. I could feel it in my heart that his words were genuine. Once he finished everything got silent. The type of silence that made your skin crawl and itch. I sighed. For once we had to show them we weren't as fragile as they thought. I knew Jay wasn't going to do it so I had to. At least I thought I had too.

"Look, we love you guys. ALL of you. Now if I have to choose, I simply won't. I'll keep hanging out with Justin, it's just you guys will know about it. I don't want to lie to you guys, but if I can forgive him and move on so can you."

"I agree. Its bad enough that I can't see my boyfriend when you guys are around, which is all the damn time. I don't like lying either, but I love him and you all know this." Said Jay smiling at Justin before turning to meet my curious gaze. "The day you caught us." She laughed. I mouthed an 'oh' before turning to the guys. To my surprise Dave stood first. I watched him carefully as he approached Justin. Without saying anything Justin stood too. Before anyone could stop him Dave had knocked him off his feet and stood over him with a smile.

"Now you're forgiven." He laughed sticking his hand out to help him up. They bro hugged before everyone laughed.

"I guess a little blood shed is palable after what I did." He laughed "anybody else want to punch me?"

"Well I do, but Ally will kill me" joked Brad.

"Damn right asshole." I laughed sitting down on his lap and kissing him lightly on the lips. I pulled back with a smile on my face as I put our foreheads together.

"I love you." I breathed with my eyes closed. I could hear as everyone went quiet in the room. I wanted to laugh, but the sound of Brad's voice stopped me.

'I love you too." My eyes shot open as I smiled and pushed my lips against his. I could feel the tears coming to my eyes. I pulled back and sniffled a little as he wiped the tears away. 'I really do love you, okay?' He mouthed as I nodded my head yes. He pulled me closer to him and I laid my head on his shoulder. For another moment it was silent. It was like within that moment all our broken parts were mended. Everything that happened never happened. At least all the bad stuff didn't.

"Brad, just because she's in love with you doesn't mean that she ain't thinking about our late night make out sessions. Yeah they still happen."

"Dave! I told you not to tell." I laughed getting up and chasing him. I could hear everyone laughing. Like genuinely laughing. For the first time in a while, it was like the old times.

"Hey guys," yelled Ashton causing us all to look at him as we calmed down a bit. " I have something to tell you."

"What is it boo?"asked Jay.

"I've been dating someone. I think its time I tell you all who." We all stopped. Like literally stopped. Not only did we not know Ashton had started dating again, we had no idea who it could possibly be. Why would he keep it a secret?

"Well who is it?!" I yelled impatiently. I needed to know.
