Forever And Always (jb/jm fanfic)

Chapter 11 - Awkward encounter

Justin's pov:

Danielle cuddled into me and soon I could hear her snoring lightly. I smiled slightly, finding it extremely cute. Heck, everything about her is cute. I don’t know, but I think I might be maybe, kind of falling for Danielle. And that’s not a good thing, because I already have a girlfriend; Selena. 

In fact she’s the one that offered to let us stay at her place in Texas. So once we get off this plane, we’ll be heading over there, and then we will go to the place we’ll actually be staying at. We would have stayed at her place, but Jason denied. He said that he’d get his own place. Apparently, it was only a few roads away from Selena’s house, so I could go to see her whenever I wanted to. The problem with this? Well, Selena gets very jealous if a girl so much as talks to me. She wants me all to herself; she thinks someone will ‘steal’ me away from her. What bullshit. Sometimes, it gets on my nerves, but I know how to handle my anger. Right, so, Danielle and Selena wont exactly get along with each other, especially with Danielle's hot temper. Anger and jealousy are two emotions that definitely do not mix well. To be quite honest I've wanted to dump Selena for the longest time, and just go for Danielle.

There’s another reason why I cant admit my feelings to Danielle. Now correct me if I’m wrong but I think that Jason might be developing feelings for Danielle. But I cant be sure. I know you’re thinking I’m going bonkers. Like, how can Jason like her; he hits her and calls her names, but I’m his brother, I know how he is and he’s very good at hiding his feelings.

“We are about to land, please fasten your seatbelts.” The captain spoke once more through the speakers, pulling me away from the tsunami of thoughts. I tilted my head to see the air hostess' walking up and down the plane to insure that passengers were obliging to the captains orders by securing their belts.

“Danielle. Wake up ba-” Woah there. Was I going to call her babe? Thank god I didn’t. I'd kill myself if she had heard me. I coughed in attempt to cover the mistake I was about to make.

“-wake up Dan,” I shook her gently, making her scowl a little before rubbing her eyes tiredly. Call me a wimp, but I scooted a little away from her, in case she decided to blow a punch across my face. That girl has a fine pair of arm muscles on her. Rolling my eyes at myself, I fell back into my normal position. I shook my head away from the thought that this beautiful angel could ever even intentionally harm me. Her tough exterior definitely didn't stop me from seeing the little girl actually inside there, just wanting some attention and help. Wait, beautiful angel? 'You never called selena that,' the voice in my head teased. I let out another awkward cough before turning to Danielle.

“I’m awake.” She mumbled sleepily. She straightened up in her seat, while I reached over for her seatbelt, completely dismissing the fact that I was basically on top of her and that she'd be immensely embarrassed. I mentally laughed as I saw the hint of a blush on her cheeks from the side of my eyes. I clicked it into place, before moving back to secure my own one.

“We’re about to land,” I whispered in her ear, wondering where all this bravery was coming from today. Normally, I'd never even be able to look into the eyes of a girl I liked.

She shivered, and then composed herself. “Hmm,” She murmured. Then her eyes widened, and she sat up straight, clutching the arm rest next to her. I watched as her strong hold on it caused her knuckles to turn white. Her eyes held a glint of fear.

“You okay, Danielle?” I asked, worriedly.

She nodded. “Yes,” I stared at her unbelievingly. She let out a deep sigh looking at her hands that were situated on her lap, clasped together. I observed her as she contemplated whether she should admit what she was thinking.
