Twenty-Nine

(Justin's POV)
Of course, being me, I stupidly did what I usually did when stress took over me. I went to the bar.
I walked to the counter and sat down in a stool. "Welcome to Slutty Bears! What do you want to drink?"
I looked up at the guy, poorly shaved, his hair was a mess, nasty looking actually.
"Slutty Bears?" I asked.
"Eh, I didn't pick the name man. What do you want?" He said.
"Surprise me." I said, I couldn't think straight, all I could think about was her. My beautiful brunette girlfriend, who was probably bawling her eyes out, cursing me out, or practicing her angry speech that she wasn't ever gonna tell me.
"You look a little too dressed up to be here, ya know? " I heard the guy say. I nodded.
"Date night gone wrong." I explained in 4 simple words.
"Ahh." He said. "woman, right?" He said with a groan.
"Nope, my fault tonight."
"Oh.. You know, you sound a lil funny where you from? " He asked, trying to change my depressing subject.
"Ha, originally Canada. Surprised you noticed." I answered.
"Cool"
"Dean!" I heard a yell.
"Ahh shit, well, sorry about your night, but I gotta go." he said. i waved a bye and felt fingers on my shoulder. I jumped slightly and turned around to see a girl basically half naked. If Selena went out like that and tapped on a guy's sounder I may have died right there.
"You look too dressed up, how about I fix that ?"
"Uhm, " what was I supposed to say, I didn't wanna be rude. I mean, it's obvious, she's trying hard to get at least a maybe, I mean she's sticking her chest of like she's trying to dance or something.
"I've got a girlfriend." I answered, turning back around.
"We don't have to tell." She giggled.
"And I don't have to tell you yes." I said with a groan. I stood up and pushed my way out, not bothering to drink the beverage the man gave me, or anything. I got in my car and started it. I need to talk to Selena. I needed to just at least see her.
I walked through the door once I got there and saw my mom sitting on the couch as she faced the door.
"Uhm, hi?" I said, wondering why she was waiting.
"What happened with Selena?"
"We just argued, okay? Nothing too serious, we just need to think about some things.. that's all." I explained, hoping that was all.
"Oh, hey Justin.. can we talk?" Selena said, her voice cracked when she said my name. oh god.
I nodded and licked my lips as I walked up the stairs with her. we entered her light purple room and she told me to sit on the bed. I knew it wasn't ending well. I'll give you a hint: It was just ending in general. this was it.
"So I've been thinking," she said, biting her lip and pacing slightly back and forth.
" Well, I- " she suddenly stopped and closed her eyes. I could see this was hard so I decided I'd just do it, so she didn't have to.
"I know what you're going to say. And I know it's hard for you to say. So.." I paused and took a deep breath. It was hard eh? I stood up and rested my hands on her shoulders.
"We-" I started until she did it, she broke down.
"I'm sorry." she cried and fell on my shoulder. I sighed and rubbed her back.
"I don't think usual break ups should end like this Selena." I stated.
She got up off of my shoulder and looked in my eyes.
"We weren't usual." she said, kissing my cheek and walking out. I stood there, thoughtless of what to do.
I sat back down because I felt like I was gonna pass out.
I lost her. I lost my world.
