Chapter song: Because Of You by Neyo
(Justin's pov)
I didn't care if people knew me. I bursted into the school and rushed to the nurse's office. People stopped and stared at me, like I was an angel.
"Becca, are you ok? Is she ok?"
I rushed to Becca, who was lying on the couch.
"She's ok. Just too much stress"
The nurse spoke. Becca had tears in her eyes and seemed scared.
"Are you ok, baby?"
I held her close enough to feel her shaking. She nodded and hugged me tightly.
"Let's get out of here"
I helped her up. Ryan and Chaz were waiting for me outside.
"We're going home"
I muttered as I held Becca with me. People were crowding us and screaming. Finally, we made it out alive and dodged toward the car. I drove off fast until we arrived back at Ryan's. I led Becca out and into the house.
"Becca, you've been through this for all you're life. That's enough. No more school. It's too stressful for you. I don't want to worry about you"
I sat her on the couch.
"But what if I disappoint my parents?"
Becca sniffled.
"They'll understand. C'mon Becca, you only have 6 months left. Stay here, away from all the stress. Ryan and Chaz aren't going either"
I tried to convince her.
"...Ok"
She mumbled and sniffled.
"Are you hungry?"
I tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.
"A little"
She mumbled.
"I know what to get you"
I signaled her to stay on the couch before I went into the kitchen. I gathered some strawberries on a plate, cut them, then smothered them in chocolate before placing them in the freezer.
"It'll be ready in a minute, babe"
I sat beside her and pulled her close. I studied her bruises to see them starting to heal. Her eyes narrowed and she hugged herself insecurely.
"You look gorgeous, babygirl"
I kissed her temple. Her cheeks turned pink as her lips tugged a smile.
"Guess what I'm thinking of"
I smiled at her cute blush.
"Give me clues"
She smiled back.
"Uhm, I really don't like this, but you seem to love it"
I gave her a hint.
"...Chocolate?"
Becca guessed.
"Nope. I'll give you another hint. It's a time of day"
I stared into her deep blue eyes.
"Oh, is it morning?"
Her eyes lit up, making my heart skip a beat. I nodded. I was too lost in her eyes to answer by word.
"I don't get up that early"
She broke me out of my daydream.
"6-8am is pretty early"
I disagreed.
"You get up at 7-8am"
She pointed out. I think the strawberries are ready.
"Yea. That doesn't mean I like it"
I grinned at her as I entered the kitchen to get her treat.
"But-"
"Enough, baby. Here"
I handed her the plate of now-frozen chocolate strawberries.
"Oh, Justin. These look good"
She gazed at the plate.
"They probably taste good too if you try them"
I smiled.
"Oh, right"
She giggled then tried one.
"Yep, they're amazing"
She complimented them.
"Told you"
I sat beside her. She just smiled and ate the snack I made for her. I felt her back to feel how tense and stressed she was.
"Damn, baby. Why are you so stressed?"
I was seriously concerned about her. I don't even get this stressed, and I'm busier than she is. Becca shrugged and set the empty plate aside.
"Let me help you"
I tugged at her shirt. Becca hesitated for a moment.
"Ugh, ok...fine"
She took off her shirt then laid on her stomach, wincing at once.
"You ok?"
I had to make sure she wasn't uncomfortable.
"Yea"
She mumbled. I hovered over her shirtless body and snatched a bottle of lemon-scented cream. I unsnapped her bra before I started to carefully rub her bare back. Becca tensed up even more.
"You've gotta relax, bae. I'm not gonna hurt you"
But I do have to say that she did turn me on. Becca nodded and tried to calm down, but I could tell she was causing even more trouble for herself. I know part of this is because of her jack-ass boyfriend, EX boyfriend. I searched her back with my hands and tried to find the spot where she was most tense. She winced but moaned at the same.
"Shh, relax, baby"
I circled and pressed my thumbs into the knots on her back until they loosened.
"You feel a little better?"
I snapped her bra back on.
"I'm tired, Justin"
She mumbled.
"Aww, take a nap, baby"
I sat her up only to discover more bruises on her stomach. Becca saw me, then put her shirt back on. I sighed, angry yet sad at the same time.
"It's fine, Justin"
Becca curled up beside me and nuzzled herself into my chest. I smiled at the feeling of her finally being mine.
-7pm-
"Hey, bro, you want us to pick up some Taco Bell?"
Ryan nudged me awake.
"Sure. You know what we want"
I know they do. We used to go there all the time too.
"Ok, see you later"
They walked out of the house. I noticed Becca was awake and smiled.
"You're so perfect, baby"
I caressed her cheek with my thumb. Her cheeks grew warm, then I kissed them.
"You're so cute"
I pinched her cheeks.
"Ugh, Justin. You know I hate that"
Becca pushed my hands away.
"That's why I did it"
I grinned playfully at her.
"Justin"
She covered her cheeks with her hands.
"I love you, baby"
I wrapped her up and pulled her on top of me as I laid down.
"I love you too"
She giggled and smiled, then I kissed her. Becca kissed back and held me tight. I'm so happy to have her in my life again. I'm happy I never gave up on trying to get her back.
"We're back"
Ryan and Chaz opened the front door.
"That was quick"
I helped Becca sit up.
"Yep, there was no line"
Chaz placed the food on the coffee table. I took Becca's and my food out.
"This is yours, bae"
I gave Becca her food.
"Thanks"
She took it, then we all started eating. Chaz and Ryan had turned on the tv, but it's just gonna get turned off when we finish. After we ate, I offered to throw Becca's trash away.
"Thanks for asking us, Justin"
Ryan spoke sarcastically.
"Sorry, I only do favors for my bae"
I winked at Becca, making her blush.
"Fine, I don't care. I've got Chaz"
Ryan threw Chaz's trash away.
"Alright, have fun"
I sat back next to Becca.
"Are you guys getting ready for bed?"
Ryan asked.
"Yea"
I remembered that Becca was tired.
"Well, I guess we should say goodnight"
Chaz and Ryan hugged Becca before giving me a friendly pat on the back. Once they left, I regathered the pillows and blankets and laid them out.
"You need anything, babe?"
I asked while taking my shirt off.
"No, thank you"
She snuggled up in the blankets. I soon joined her and held her close.
"I love you, beautiful"
I kissed her cheek.
"I love you too...Justy"
My heart skipped another beat when she said that. I haven't heard her say that in years. It made me smile bigger than I have in a while.

ATTENTION: I'm fast-forwarding 6 months, because that's when Justin goes on the Believe tour (June 2012) It's only around January in their time. It'll get boring if I had to write 6 months of the story, so I'm getting to more drama)
