Justin drove me back to my house since I still had to go to school tomorrow morning, and it was two before he literally picked me up off the floor, and put me in his car. Everyone patted me on my back, and said they loved me, and to call if I needed anything, but I was numb to it all. We had been sitting in my driveway about ten minutes now. "Will you stay?" I asked turning to look at him fresh tears in my eyes he nodded.
"Of course." He answered turning the car off. We walked inside him helping me, since I was still in shock. I was relieved my mom decided to stay with Kate so she wasn't here to question Justin and I, even though we stayed together last night and nobody said anything. I honestly doubt she would say anything about it tonight either after me getting the worst news of my entire life. He led me upstairs to my bedroom, I didn't bother changing I just laid down and started crying again, Justin wrapped me up in his embrace, and like the night before I cried into his chest, except tonight it lasted a lot longer. When Justin started crying I held him like he was doing for me, then finally we both fell asleep... When my alarm started going off in the morning I was already awake, and dreading it, but I can't say the same for Justin the alarm woke him up he groaned, and I turned over to face him.
"Please tell me it was all just a dream?" I asked hoping that last night really was just a dream. He gave me a sympathetic look, and I knew it wasn't a dream.
"You know you don't have to go to school today." He stated picking his phone up and looking at the time.
"I gotta do something, I'm gonna go crazy if I don't." I replied he just nodded I got up, and decided I needed to shower I grabbed some clothes, then headed towards the bathroom Justin had already fallen back asleep. I got out of the shower, and decided to leave my hair wet, and throw it in a bun. I walked back to my room, and saw Justin still sleeping.
"Hey." I whispered lightly poking him he stirred, and opened his eyes again.
"What's up sweetheart?" He asked rubbing his eyes.
"Will you take me to school?" I asked he grinned.
"What's wrong with your car?" He questioned.
"You said you wouldn't leave." I said he lost the smirk he had and he wrapped me in a hug again. "And, also I don't trust myself." I whispered. He nodded in my neck.
"Of course, I'm sorry." He apologized, but I put my hand up to stop him.
"Don't apologize you're right I do have a car, and nothing is wrong with it, if you don't want to I."
"Shut up, are you ready?" He asked giving me one last hug before getting out of the bed.
"Yeah, whenever you are." I replied he nodded his head.
"I'm going to go to the bathroom, then we can go." He said leaving my room. I grabbed my backpack, purse, and phone then went downstairs to wait for him. He came down two minutes later with his keys in his hands....
We had arrived at the school, and I was fighting a battle with myself whether I should go in or not, Justin stayed quiet, and rubbed my shoulder waiting for me to decide what I was going to do. Finally I took a deep breathe, and grabbed my stuff Justin lightly grabbed my arm before I could fully get out of the car.
"You call me when you're ready to leave ok." He stated I nodded my head, somehow I knew I wasn't going to make it the whole day today, and I knew Justin knew it too. I gave Justin a small, and fake smile as I shut the door, and headed towards the school. As I was walking towards my first period I saw my two best friends Kasey, and Morgan they came running up to me, and hugged me.
"Your mom called us, and told us, we are so sorry. We are here for you if you need anything." They said giving me another hug. I got a notification on my phone, and as I looked at it the bell rang signaling class was starting, but I couldn't move, the notification that I had just received was the official statement the police put out about Tyler. I opened the door to the classroom, and started sobbing my teachers were both very confused, and didn't know what to do, but one of my classmates got the same notification on his phone, and he quickly ran up to Mrs. Jones, and explained everything to her, and she understood, she gave me a hug, and led me towards the guidance counselors office, I got my phone out.
"I need you." Was all I said before hanging up.
