2 months later:
Sharon went back after a 15 day stay and she also won the best female singer of The Battle though her band didn’t win the competition. Sharon decided to let Jake go off her mind, she is strong girl and I’m glad she decided to leave; he doesn’t deserve her at all. Justin was back to normal, writing, recording songs, working in the studio all time. Trust me, he is very hard working. Well, about me and Justin are having a perfect life. Our plan is working very well, after attending the university; he picks me up then we both hangout for one hour everyday then he drops me to the hostel and go back to our boring lives.
Justin called me and asked me to meet him at the bakery shop near my hostel. I was on time and as usual he was late. I was sitting at the corner table having my brownie when somebody grabbed me from behind and kissed me on the check, Justin. He wore a cap and glasses to hide his identity in the public place.
“Sorry. I’m late” Justin said and sat down next to me.
“I’m used to it” I said and rolled my eyes.
“I said, I’m sorry”
“You always say that”
“Can we talk about this later? I have some serious stuff to talk about.”
“What?”
“My Believe Tour” these three words was the last thing I would want to hear. I have been ignoring this topic for a long time.
“I know you don’t want to talk about it but we have to face it.
“Face what Justin? I won’t be able to see you for one year!”
“I told you we can always meet each other, you can visit me, we can skype or call all the time”.
“Justin you know that this year I’ll be getting busy with my archeologist course and I can’t call you all the time because you’ll be visiting different cities and you wont change your numbers every time and skype, Justin there ...
... middle of paper ...
...n the car. I tried to ignore him and forced myself to concentrate on the words. For a minute or so, I was able to block out everything around me when I hear Justin’s voice again.
“Alex, are you okay?”
“Yes. Why?”
“You don’t read books. That’s why” he had a point, reading books wasn’t my cup of tea.
“Justin?” I said.
“Yes?”
“Do you love me?
“What type of question is that? Ofcourse I do!” he exclaimed
“You won’t leave me no matter what happens?”
“Alex, are you…” before he could complete, he saw my crying and brought the car to a halt.
He stared at me for a while. Then, wiped my tears off and made his lips meet mine. His lips were soft and he was gentle. I found myself kissing him back. The kiss didn’t last long and it wasn’t the kind of worldshaking, deep-thrilling kiss we see in movies these days; but even so, I was glad he kissed me. I needed that one.
It had been nearly nine years since we had any communication, so I thought we should get back into the habit of updating one another. How have you been Jonas? How’s Gabriel? I hope the both of you are both doing well. I missed the two of you dearly.
He turned his head toward me and peered at me through swollen eyes. “I begged her not to go with him,” he said quietly. “Do you hear me, I begged her!”
...rned my head toward his,tucked my long brown hair behind my ear, took my face with both of his hands and told me that everything would be okay. Ben pulled my face to his a gently kissed my forehead and then pulled my head to his chest, which was warm, and strong.
It was a warm morning, Leah was getting ready to see her new high school with her mom. She looked through the window and saw a young boy around her age wearing a red cap, cutting off weed and fixing up a place across from where she lives. The guy knew she was looking at him from across the window, so he looked up and gave a smile at her. Leah moved away from the window and got embarrassed. She then took another peek and saw that the guy left with his bicycle, she was wondering who he was. A few minutes later, Leah’s mother took her to the high school she will be attending to, she saw the high school and it was much different where she attended to in New York, it was like a type long house with only 3 big room, they only had 1st year, 2nd year, and 3rd year of high school. They put her 1st year of high school which is like freshman year again. Leah will be starting high school within 2 weeks. She was kind of excited but yet nervous about how people will act with her since she can’t speak much Spanish. The next day she saw the guy she looked at through the window again cleaning up the property from across her house, he saw her looking at him again and he waved hi to her, Leah hid quickly and turned red, she told herself “ he probably thinks I’m a weirdo or he probably thinks I’m stalking him”. She then wanted to say hi back
She looked at him with surprise, she knew she had to get away. "Well, I'm sorry, but I don't really know anything about cars. I don't think that I would be able to help you."
“This was the address that my aunt gave me when she called last night” I said with an expression of exasperation. “I’ll message my cousin Roxanne and check with her” I said as we got back into the car and I texted my

"Why were you such a bully in Junior high?" I say nervously. Damn that was a stupid question, I am about to get beat up. Oh no, let me close my eyes and clinch my face. After nothing really happened, or it did happen and my face is just really numb that I can't feel it anymore. The room was awkwardly silent for good two to three minutes, I slowly opened my eyes and then Dale finally started talking.
But his expression stopped me cold. His eyelids scrunched tightly and his head turned 30 degrees, like he was bracing for a punch. “I know I messed up,” he mumbled, “You don’t have to yell at me.”
“Please, feel free to speak. If something is bothering you, rest assured that you can count on me for help…”
After school on the day before spring break, a boy confronted me and told me how he felt. I was shocked. I had nothing to lose, so I eagerly accepted his feelings. He held my hand as he walked me to my bus, and hugged me before I departed. "Have a nice break," he said, smiling.
“I don’t need money. I need to talk. Let’s catch up?” his text read. It was from a familiar number, but I could’ve sworn that the person who met with me was a stranger.
Instantly I tripped over the edge of the table and collapsed to the ground. With my face down on the floor I was embarrassed, thinking to myself I just missed my chance with this girl. The crowd of people laughing like they were at a comedic show, a baby soft tap embraced my shoulder. I looked up and it was not the person I was expecting. There she was with her hand held out I was startled as she whispered h...

I slept a couple of more minutes.After while, the shine of the sun coming from the window woke me up.I slowly stretched my arms and slid out of bed. I brushed my teeth and took the shower. Downstair,my mother was calling me for breakfast.I was still undecided what should wear for school. After browsing for while I found something to wear,and finished getting myself ready for school. When I checked the clock, I was running late as usual, which was not a surprised. I quickly ate my half sandwich and left the rest of the sandwich on the table.I took my car key, jump in my black Lexus and made my way to school.During my way to school, I got a call from my friend John. John is my best friend since when we were in middle school. He told me that his car was broke down and he needed to ride to school. Fortunately, my friend house on my school way. I told my friend. I am on my way to pick you up from your house. As I got there, john come out from his house and jumped in my car. With sound of Drake singing and music blasting, it was a
“That doesn’t matter right now.” The stone faced man continued looking forward as I broke down into a sobbing panic.
