Chapter 4

The next morning I woke up in my soft bed. I didn't want to wake up but I knew I had to. I needed to talk to Justin. It was important and I knew if I didn't talk to him soon, our relationship could go downhill. Someone was holding me and Justin apart. A certain someone who I have learned to despise over the past week. Just about a week ago, I loved that person but now I h8 her.

I got up and got dressed. I wore my white Aeropostale jacket with navy blue lettering. I wore a pair of my dark washed baggy jeans. I loved these jeans because my old bestie, Ryan, got them for me. I slipped on my grey nike tennis shoes. I left the house to start my brand new day.

I arrived at Hoodland's Park to meet up with Justin. He wasn't here yet but I was surprisingly greeted by a jogging Mario Eiden.

"Hey!" Mario said as he bobbed his head slightly.

I smiled awkwardly as I rose my head up. I can tell my cheeks her turning a bright pink color as my face was getting warm. I stared at him for several seconds. I don't know why but I felt kind of nervous around him. I guess I felt nervous around anyone who wasn't Justin or Matt. They were my mains. Justin being #1.

Mario shook his head as his face showed how confused he was. I was surprised. Mario usually wasn't confused. He was always determined.

Mario jogged off and revealed the man of my dreams.

"Hey buddy," Justin said as he put his hand on my shoulder.

"Hey ba - Justin," I said, looking down at my grey nike shoes as I noticed my white shoelaces that I bleached before I came here, were untied. I guess Justin noticed too.

"What were you going to call me? But your shoelace is untied." He pointed to my shoes.

"Nothing, nothing," I shyly said. I was usually a pretty shy man. Well, boy. I wasn't a man, YET. Maybe after the plan I have with Justin, that will change.

"Were you going to call me babe?" He asked shyly. He slowly went down on his knees and I started to get nervous. What was he doing? I put my hands on my belt and heard Justin quietly chuckling. I then felt him run his hand across my swaggy shoes. He then grabbed my two shoelaces and I sighed in relief. He was just tying my shoe.

"Sorry," he said as he heard my sigh.

"Oh, no!! It's fine. Just - just tie," I nervously said.

He laughed then tied my pearly white shoelaces. He tied them perfectly.

"So... Justin...." I shyly said. Why was I so shy today?!

"So... AJ. Did you need to talk to me?" He asked.

"Oh, yeah, I did!!! So you know how I'm dating Mallory?" I roll my eyes when I say 'Mallory'.

"Yeah..." He said awkwardly.

"Well I'm going to break up with her. I thought that maybe since we both 'like' each other, we should maybe d8?!" I said. I didn't want to know his reaction but I found out anyways.

"Why break up with her? And you think we should d8?" He asked.

That's when my heart slowly broke. It broke into tiny little pieces. Why did his questions hurt so much when they were just so simple? I didn't get it. But why is he questioning me and my questions? That's when I felt myself slowly fall to the ground.
