Chapter 6: Guilt

YN's P.O.V

It was 10 in the morning and I had just dropped Skylar at pre-school, Skylar was anticipating the day ahead of her as I invited her friends over for a sleepover. It's her first one and I promised it'll be princess themed since that's her favourite. I was in the kitchen sitting by the island table with a cup of coffee, I wore a baggy, black and white striped shirt, black leggings and fuzzy warm socks - my hair was in a high ponytail as it had natural waves. I was browsing through the recent issue of Elle Magazine - looking at all the styles and outfits my mom designed herself. Yes, my mom still works in fashion and she's even promoted to be CEO of Elle Magazine.

I heard the front door open, this was my chance to forgive him since I was the one overacting, so everything would go back to as normal. "Hey baby," I heard Justin's voice behind me, I looked over and gave him a warm smile,

"Hi. C-can we talk, please," I asked him, I knew he was tired but I needed to talk to him urgently,

"Uh sure," he said, he grabbed a chair and sat beside me,

"I-I'm so sorry for overreacting like that yesterday, I was so overwhelmed with all the rumours that were coming out, I never focused on your side. I was supposed to listen to you but I ended up assuming a lot of stuff, will you forgive me?" I asked, he gulped and looked down, "Justin?"

"O-of course I'll forgive you baby, it's not your fault, anyone could get the wrong idea," he said,

"I know you'd never cheat on me Justin, I don't know what made me doubt," I said, "were you at the studio overnight?"

"Uh, yeah. I'm just so tired, I ended up sleeping there since I had a lot of work to do," he said with a weak smile,

"Why don't you go upstairs..." I said standing up and holding him, "take a shower or bath..." I whispered in his ear and kissed his neck softly, "and have a well needed rest," I said placing my lips on his, he didn't kiss me like the way he usually does - it was as if he was hesitating, it must have been because he was exhausted.

Justin's P.O.V

I felt nothing besides guilt as I walked up the stairs. Having to lie through my teeth to YN is probably the hardest task for me. I don't understand myself, on what activities occurred last night with that girl, I vaguely remember pushing her away from me as I didn't what to go far but the next thing I saw pitch black and woke up with her next to me. I didn't add up at all but from what I see, I know I'm a heartless cheater and soon I have to face up to the consequences...but I can't lose my family just because of that stupid mistake. I hate myself.

I stripped out of my clothes and hopped into the warm bath I ran, it felt good to get rid of all the dirt from last night. I didn't even remember the girl's name which shocks me, how drunk and high I was? Obviously a lot or else I'd still have my memory, as long as the girl stays away from my family and I then YN will never find out, right?

I heard my phone ding beside the bath, I picked it up with my dry hand and read the contact - Bethany. I furrowed my eyebrows and opened the message to read:

Don't worry baby, your secret is safe with me. I enjoyed last night, maybe we'll do it again sometime ;) xxx

I realised it was the girl and replied:

J: Don't ever text me again.

B: No one will find out, it's ok! X

J: Leave me and my family, I told you to stay away. Delete my contact and forget about what happened
