Disclaimer: I don't own Ninjago or "Rewrite the Stars" from "The Greatest Showman", just the story and my OC's.

This song fits really well with the chapter and "The Greatest Showman" was a fantastic movie!

Justin was in his room, debating on what to do.  He had figured out that he did indeed have feelings for Rosie and was now realizing how Max felt when it came to Alex.  He realized that the real reason Max didn't want to tell Alex was because of fear of rejection which is what he is fearing, but Alex and Max were together now so it would be ok for him, right?

Justin decided to just get it over with and tell Rosie how he felt.  He went down to the Samurai X Cave.  "Hey Rosie," he said when he saw her with a smile on his face.

"Hi Justin," Rosie said.

"How are you doing?"

"I'm fine.  We just saw each other when we got back from school."

"I know.  That was a stupid question to ask."

"It shows you care."

"Trust me, I care more than you think."

"What do you mean?"

Justin gulped and walked closer to her.  "I didn't realize this until I talked to Alex, but I'm really glad Alex told me because she knew how I was feeling before I did and I'm rambling, aren't I?"  Rosie giggled and it made Justin smile.  "What I'm trying to say is...I like you."

"I like you too as a friend."

"Rosie, I mean I like you like you."

Rosie sighed.  "It won't work."

"What do you mean it won't work?"

"You're a human.  I'm a nindroid.  A relationship between us wouldn't work."

"But it can work."  Justin was starting to lose the smile he walked in with.

"I want you to be happy, so any feelings I have for you, I need to bury."

"So, you admit you have feelings for me?"  Justin smirked.

"We could never be a couple."

Justin frowned.  "I don't believe that.  You can't deny that we almost kissed."

Rosie sighed again.  "We weren't made to be with each other."

"It doesn't matter!  We could rewrite the stars!  (Sorry I had to.) Please!  Anything!  I just want to be with you!"

"We're too different.  You need a real girl, not me."

Justin lowered his voice.  "Rosie, please.  Don't do this."

"I'm sorry."  Rosie walked away.

Justin angrily stormed away.  He went back into the monastery and slammed the door behind him which startled everyone who was just sitting in the living room.  Justin went up to Alex.  "Thanks for your stupid advice Alex!" Justin yelled and went to his room.

"What wrong with him?" Nya asked.

"What advice did you give him Alex?" Jay asked.

"Uh...I don't really know if he would want me to tell you guys," Alex said.

"Alex, what is your brother upset about?" Nya asked firmly.

"Well, Justin developed a crush on Rosie and I figured it out and I may have told him that he should pursue it," Alex said quickly.
