In The Dark (A Justin Bieber Love Story)

Chapter 5

Here is chapter 5 my lovely people!! I hope you enjoy it!

------

        The car ride back to my shared house with Selena was a long, very silent one. Justin starred straight ahead, hands wrapped securely around the steering wheel. Neither of us spoke a single word to each other, not even when we rolled up the long driveway.

If he wasn't going to apologize than you could bet your butt cheeks I wasn't going to either.

        My frustration grew with every passing mile. He wouldn't even look at me.

Maybe I'm not really that special to him. Maybe I'm just going to be like some one night stand.

        I turned my head to watch the street lights flick by and wiped the water that still dripped from my chin. Wet clothes were not fun. Not even a little. Justin let out a agitated sigh and reached over to turn on the radio. A few minutes later the car stopped in front of the walkway to the front door and I looked over at Justin, waiting for some type of explanation. He dropped his hands into his lap but kept his straight face, not returning my gaze. No goodbye. No apology. No explanation. Not even a smile.

        Feeling my heart crack again, I let out a silent sob before pushing my way out of the Range Rover in a fury. I was drenched in rain from head to toe for the second time that night, it was a good thing too. This way no one could tell I was in tears.

        My feet slammed onto the wet ground and hastened when I heard a voice from far behind me.

        "Charlie! Wait!"

I shook my head in denial. I was NOT going to be another play thing.

        "Charlotte!" his voice was closer this time.

        "No!" I shouted, making it up the last few steps and slamming into the front door. I shoved my hands into my pockets in an attempt to find my keys, scrambling even faster because I could hear his footsteps quicken over the sound of the rain. I gave up, realizing I had no way in and pounded my fists against the door, screaming out in rage and heartbreak. The tears poured out now, even faster than the rain did.

I cant believe I had been so stupid as to forget my keys.

I cant believe I had been so stupid as to believe any of this would work.

        I had already developed serious feelings for a man that, in every way possible, cannot be mine. Here I was, already expecting him to treat me like his one and only. I didn't even consider what the press or fans would do if they found out. I would be labeled as the one that ruined it all. Everyone would hate me. And all that for someone who most likely only be looking for a fling.

        I turned my head to see him running up the stairs now and in one more attempt to flee, I let out a strangled cry and pushed myself past him out from under the overhang and into the rain again. I could see the freedom of my open yard, the possibility to run from it all.

        However all of my hopes of escaping came to a halt with my body as I was caught by the wrist by the warm hand of my very demise. Realizing that I had nowhere to go and that he was probably going to hold on to me until I answered his questions, I turned to face him.

        "Charlotte Marie Royal, whatever it is that I did...I'm sorry."

        My heart sunk and I looked at the ground. I couldn't tell him everything I had just told myself. But I would have to say a few things I guess.
