Runaway Love {A Justin Bieber Love Story}

Chapter 45

The guilt was eating me alive. It kills me that I can't be as open with Katie as she is with me. I want to tell her what really happened that night with Selena, but at the same time, there's the strong possibility I could lose her because I know for a fact she would be furious with me.

I walked downstairs to see Katie perched on a chair in front of my laptop. She currently seemed to be deep in thought as she was looking down at a textbook. Looks like that video chat was happening after all. I snuck up behind her and draped my arms around her shoulders.

"Morning baby," I looked at her.

"Morning Justin," She was still focused on the book. I puckered my lips but she still didn't look up. I pressed the side of my face on hers and shook my head playfully.

She laughed and finally looked at me, putting her hands on my arms. She pecked my lips and I was satisfied.

We heard someone clear their throat.

Alexa was gushing at us, but Jeffrey looked annoyed. It's the 21st century. Why aren't we able to strangle people through a computer screen yet?

"How's the project coming along?" I asked casually.

"It's going great," He said monotonously. "But we need Katie at the moment."

"Sorry Justin," Alexa said sympathetically. "I have to agree with him on this one."

"It's cool," I shrugged, releasing her. "You guys do what you gotta do."

I messed up Katie's hair playfully before I walked off to the kitchen chuckling.

"Justin!" She scolded, but ended up laughing as she fixed her hair back.

"So where were we?" I heard Jeffrey ask.

"Actually I think we did enough for today."

"Agreed!" Alexa murmured.

"Oh okay... So when's the next time we're meeting up?"

"We finished our scripts so we're still meeting up 6th period Monday through Wednesday for Alexa's weather forecast. We can meet in the auditorium to film my current events and your sports section sometime in the week?"

"We can meet up 20 minutes before lunch up to Thursday," Jeffrey suggested.

"And during study hall Monday and Wednesday," Alexa chimed.

"Then we edit it Thursday. But where?" I asked.

"Should we go to your place again?" Jeffrey asked.

"Ummmm," Katie looked up at me and I shrugged.

"Whatever you want," I mouthed to her.

'Please say no. Please say no' I pleaded in my head.

"Sure," She replied.

Damn it.

"And don't forget the formal wear!" Alexa reminded them.

"No problem. See you guys later," She waved as they said their goodbyes.

"Ready to go?" Meredith asked Katie as she appeared on the base of the stairs.

"Yep," She closed my laptop and put on her shoes.

"Where are you guys going?" I furrowed my eyebrows.

"To the spa!" Meredith said excitedly.

"We're having a sisters day," She put on her coat and picked up her purse.

"Isn't that sweet," I smiled. "You guys have fun. And take lots of pictures."

"Will do," Her and Meredith gave me a hug and kissed me on both cheeks. I blushed vibrantly, earning chuckles from both of them.
