"Justin!" I smile and run up to him, giving him the tightest hug ever. "I got your text, is everything ok?" I ask, as Justin's smile is replaced with a serious look.

"Well," he starts and we sit down on the porch steps. Justin runs a hand through his hair and I start to get worried. He doesn't normally run his hands through his hair ... Justin only does that when he's got big news to share and he's not sure how the reaction's gonna be. Justin looks over at me and into my eyes, making me melt. Then, he looks down to the ground and mutters something.

"What was that?" I ask and Justin takes a deep breath.

Justin takes both of my hands in his and intertwines our fingers together. "Payton, I broke up with Selena. I broke up with her and I've realized that I never loved her. I've always been in love with you," he whispers the words just loud enough for me to hear and my heart just starts racing. I've always been in love with you. The sentence echoes in my mind and I just can't think straight. Am I dreaming? Is this reality? "I've loved you from the moment I laid eyes on you," Justin starts up again and I just feel like I'm in a dream. "When I first met you, I couldn't believe that you would date someone like me, let alone be one of my best friends! I love how you laugh at the stupidest things I could ever say. I love how your fingers fit perfectly in between mine. I know this sounds so sappy and so girlish, but this is coming right from my heart. You could do so much better than me, and I know you can so don't deny it, but I just had to let you know that I broke up with Selena just so I could be with you and I understand if you don't want to be with me," He starts rambling and I giggle, which makes him smile ... but he keeps going on and on.

"Justin," I smile and he looks at me with a cute but goofy smile on his face, which makes me giggle. "I've had this huge crush on you ever since Taylor first started talking about you. The way she described you ... well, you sounded perfect. And then when I got to meet you, I was the happiest person alive. Your voice sounds so angellic and perfect, just this natural talent that I do not possess. The day I met you was the day I knew I was in love with you and then a couple months later, you started dating Selena and my heart shattered into pieces. I thought you were going to ask me out, just the way you were treating me convinced me that you were going to. But then you asked Selena out ... and I was heartbroken for weeks. I'd see you two cuddling, kissing, going to the beach, going on dates and I oculdn't stand it. I locked myself in my room for two weeks and would only let Taylor talk to me. When you came to Nashville for those concerts, I had high hopes that Selena wouldn't be there and when I went, there she was, looking so much better that I ever could and -" I didn't get to finish my sentence. Why? I didn't finish my sentence because Justin pressed his soft lips onto mine and kissed me, making me feel all warm and happy on the inside. After, I finished freaking out on the inside, I kissed him back and slowly, but surely, things started getting more heated. Justin placed his hands on my hips and pulled me right onto his lap, and I wrapped my legs around his waist, getting my fingers tangled in his hair as I ran my hands through his hair. I felt the sparks flying like crazy as we kept kissing, our lips in sync with each other, as if we were completely meant to be.

And, deep inside, I knew we were meant for each other. I knew we were perfect for each other. I've always known and I think Justin has always known too. But for right now, things were getting VERY heated, so as soon as I knew that Justin was ready to take it a step further - I think that's what he wanted - I pulled away. We just confessed that our feelings to each other and I don't want our relationship to burn out. When I pulled away from the kiss, I saw longing flash through Justin's beautiful brown orbs and I giggled.

"How about we slow things down a little, Justin," I smiled and Justin chuckled, quickly kissing me on the cheek.

"If you want to. Now come on, I heard you wanted to do a photo-shoot and I just happen to be a very good photographer."
