Love Isn't Always Fair (A Ashley Purdy Love Story) *On Hold*

Chapter 9: Closure

Izzy's POV

I feel horrible right now for all the guys. I keep waking up with nightmares about Justin. I love Ashley, I really do. But I feel I should still be with Justin. I got a letter from his case worker saying that he has been getting better with taking his medication and his therapy. I feel bad for him. I know I shouldn't but I do. I decided to go visit him. But I can't let the guys know that I'm going. If they find out they will be very angry with me. Ashley would be crushed if he found out. Somehow I persuaded myself that I have to tell Jinxx. "Jinxx can I talk to you for a second?" I asked him. "Sure just give me a minute" he says as he finishes cleaning up breakfast. We sit down on the couch together. "You know how Justin is in prison, Jinxx" I say. And he nods "Well I want to go see him. I know I shouldn't but I need closure. I'm sick of my nightmares and waking you guys up." I tell him. "That is fine Izzy. Me and Andy were actually thinking about that. We didn't want to force you to go." He tells me. "Can Ashley come with me?" I ask. "I don't think he should. He is still really pissed about what Justin did to you. But I can go with you if you want." he says. "Please Jinxx." I ask. He said he would go. Ashley came in with Carolyn playing and laughing at her. "Carolyn just fell in the pool the poor thing"  Ash says. "Sure she fell in. Time for a bath Carolyn." I say. And she ran to the bathroom and waited for me patiently."We need to talk later." I tell Ash as I kiss him before I leave the room.

Carolyn's POV

I love bath time with mommy. When she rubs the shampoo through-out my hair, it feels like she is giving me a massage. I splashed mommy with my tail. I jump out of the tub and shake off. "Stop Carolyn your getting water everywhere" she says. She wraps a towel around me and rubs me dry. I run into the living room and grab my brush and meet her in our bedroom. I jump up on the bed and sit in her lap. She brushes my hair so gently. She starts to blow dry it and I start biting at the air blowing on me because it feels weird. She laughs at me and she finishes brushing out my hair. Daddy dyed my fur black without mommy knowing but she liked it anyway. I thought I looked tough so no big dogs would try to hurt me. Mommy picked up her book and started to read and I started to drift off to sleep.

Andy's POV

"Izzy time to go to the venue for practice" I tell her but I see she fell asleep in her bed with Carolyn. I shake her gently awake. "Don't make me have to lick your face Isabella" I say as I lean down to her face. Her eyes flick open and she throw on her flip flops and gets ready to go. "Andy can Carolyn come this time please?" She asks. "Ya as long as she doesn't the microphone from me again" I tell her. "She was telling you that your voice was off" She says laughing. "Honey my voice is never off" I tell her as I put Carolyn in her carrier. CC honks the horn of the car and I yell out that were coming. I sit down in between Jake and Izzy. "Why can't I sit next to Izzy?" Jake whines. "Fine you big baby." I say and I move over. "Yay Izzy" Jake says and hugs her. We get to the venue and I see two girls standing out front who look like their looking for someone. Izzy gets out of the car and squeals and runs towards the girls. "Guys Geena and Angie are here to visit" She says all excited. "Ya we came to see you guys perform tomorrow night and spend sometime with Izzy and see if Mr.Purdy over there is good enough for our Izzy." Geena says. I see Izzy blush. "Well you guys are than welcome to stay with us" I say as we walk into the building. "And since your here with us now you can watch Carolyn." they agreed because since it's a fluffy cute puppy and not a huge dog.

Geena's POV

I love seeing Izzy happy again. Ashley really makes her happy and that makes me happy. "So what songs you gonna sing Izzy tomorrow night" I asked her. " I think I might sing Cancer, Your Love Is A Lie, Reprobate Romance and The End of Prom Night."  she tells me. "I love Your Love Is A Lie." I say. "Ya well I'm going to rehearse a couple songs while the guys do an interview. Tell me which ones you like" she tells us. We agree and she sings like 10 songs. And we decided on Something, Sweet Dreams(Are Made Of This), Blow Me(One Last Kiss), I Will Follow You Into The Dark, Reprobate Romance, Wide Awake and Cancer. I know she picked Cancer because her dad died from brain cancer. I turn around to find CC looking at me with a smile on his face and I can't help but smile back. CC is really cute and he always makes me laugh when I'm with him, Izzy and the guys. The guys practice and us three girls pretend to be crazed fan girls and scream really loud. "Wow you guys know how to pretend to be fan girls really well" Jeremy the lead singer from ADTR says. "Jeremy I've missed you since we recorded a song together ." Izzy says giving him a hug. "I came to see you perform tomorrow night with the guys. Andy said you could use the support since it's your first live performance since Warped." he says. "Yay. And thank you but I think I will be fine. Andy how many other people did you tell?"she asks. He said he told the guys from Asking Alexandria, Falling in Reverse, All Time Low, BODTF, and Jeffree Star. By the time practice was over it was 2 o'clock and the guys took us back to the house.

Ashley's POV

"So what did you wanna talk about babe?" I asked. "Me and Jinxx are going to see Justin so I can get closure with Justin before we got on tour next month in the UK. And I just wanted you to know" she told me. I was scared that she might leave me for Justin but I know she wouldn't do that. She told me she was over him and didn't want to be with him every again. "Okay but be careful and show him what he lost since the first time he hit you." I told her as I kissed her. "Don't worry he will see what he is missing out on" she says as she pulls me into a very passionate kiss. I walk her out to the car and give her one last kiss and watch her and Jinxx drive away. "Come on man we convinced the girls to play beer bong with us lets go" yells CC. "Do you think about anything else besides beer" I ask. "Yes I think about how adorable Izzy's friend Geena is." he responds. I head in and join Andy's team. Angie is with Geena and of course Jake and CC are together. They are unstoppable at beer bong.

Justin's POV

The guard comes in and says I have visitors which surprises me. I mean after all who would want to visit me since all my friends dumped me since they found out I abused Izzy. I walk out into the rec area and see it's Izzy and Jinxx who came to visit me. I understand why Izzy didn't come alone but I wish she did. I wouldn't hurt her. I now understand what I did was seriously wrong and screwed up. "Izzy you came to visit" I said with fear in my voice. "Yes I came because I needed some closure Justin. I can't get through one night sleeping because I have nightmares of you coming to rape me and kill my friends and family." she said scared. I touch her hand gently but she moves it away. "Izzy that night when you came home and I tried to rape you. The reason I stopped was because I realised what I was doing was wrong and horrible. I should never of tried to rape you or hurt you. I hurt you too far that time and I should've never hurt you at all." I say trying to explain myself even though there is no way to explain myself. "Justin you really hurt me. I really did love and care about you. I tried to help you but I couldn't." she says almost crying. Jinxx puts his arm around her trying to comfort her. "Izzy I have been taking my medication and now I am in the daily routine of if and I never forget. I wish I gave counseling a chance because now it has helped me so much. I realise how much you made me happy and keep my life going. Before you I wanted to die but you gave my life meaning. So I thank you for that." I tell her. "Your welcome Justin." she grabs my hand and looks into my eyes. "You still need help Justin. I don't want you to hurt another girl. I understand that your saying you won't but you need to be here." she explains. I could tell that she was right and she always has been right. I'm glad I met her at Warped Tour. She helped me grow as a person. The guard comes and tells us to wrap it up. She talks about how she is opening for Black Veil Brides on their UK tour next month. How she is dating Ashley now and that my mom keeps calling her thanking her for getting rid of me. That hurt me when she told me that. Even though my mom beat me I at least hoped she loved me a little bit but I guess not. Izzy gives me a kiss on the cheek and a hug good bye. I'm glad that she is with Ashley now because he can give her everything and more.

Jinxx's POV

When we get home, me and Izzy find everyone passed out drunk. Geena is passed out on top of CC and it looks like they've been making out. I pick up Angie and put her in our guest bedroom in the bed and do the same with Geena. Andy wakes up and me and Izzy help him walk to his room. We put CC and Jake together in CC's bed because we know it was their idea to get everybody drunk. So they can wake up next to each other in their boxers thinking they fucked. We help Ashley up and put him in his bed. Me and Izzy go to bed and I lay in my bed for two hours and realise I can't sleep. I go out into the kitchen and she Izzy sitting in the hot tub out on the patio with Carolyn. I go outside and sit next to her on the tile. "What's wrong Isabella" I ask. "I just really wanted to talk to Ashley when we got home but he was passed out drunk." she says. "Well I think you did a great job tonight talking to Justin. I'm really proud of you." I tell her. "Thank you but I just feel like weird now like my life is just too perfect. Do you understand what I'm saying?" she asked. "I kinda get what your saying and I understand. You just closed the chapter to a very scary point in your life. But now life is only going to get harder." I tell her. "Now let's get some sleep okay." I help her out of the hot tub and braid her hair. We get Carolyn in her crate. She thanks me and I close the door and let her put on her PJs. She comes out and gives me a hug. "Thank you Jeremy for everything. You've been like a father to me since I've moved in with you guys and it's meant a lot to me. I miss my dad so much." She says crying into me. I pick her up and carry her to my room and lay down with her. "I love you Izzy and I'm sure your father would want to be here for you right now" I tell her as I stroke her hair. She fell asleep a couple minutes later. I miss when people call me by my real name. I hope Izzy calls me Jeremy more often. I wish her father was here for her right now. It makes me wonder about who he was and I don't think Izzy will talk about him so I will have to talk to her mom sometime about him.
