CHAPTER 5
It's almost the end of March now and graduation is coming. I am so scared to see the school year come to an end especially if I wont see Justin anymore. I love his friendship with all my heart and I dont know how I could have gotten through anything without his help.
Joey came over to my house later in the day and I decided to ask for Joeys advice. He had no clue that Michelle was dating Justin and when i told him he looked a little mad as if he was dating her and she was two timing him. I asked him why he gave me that look. And he said it was nothing and that those two were definetly not compatible. I asked why he would care, he is with me. but he just changed the subject and I got a little suspicious but i let it go. I continued asking him what i should do to get my relationship back with Justin. I told him how he was acting around me and he blurted out, "Oh he probably has feelings for you." I said NO WAY Justin and I are friends, he doesnt see me that way. Once Joey left I couldnt stop thinking about what he said. I mean Justin in love with me that is impossible and if he did why wouldnt he tell me. This was getting all too complicated and so i decided to go right to Justin myself. I could not take his cold shoulder attitude anymore. i needed to talk to my best friend and strarighten this all out right here and right now. I told myself to be polite and knock but i couldnt. I took out my key, opened the door, and marched right up to his room. he was there and he was looking through our pictures, thats when i knew he wanted the same thing i did. He couldnt stand us not speaking and when he saw me he came right up to me, without any words and hugged me. that was all he had to do for me to know that he still wanted me as a friend.
Later that night we went out to dinner. I payed of course because it was a really really belated birthday dinner. I took him out to his favorite restaurant and conincidentally JC and Kari were there. Kari excused herslef to go powder her nose and she took me along with her too. that gave justin and jc time to talk too. JC said it was about time we were together and justin said he was happy about it too.
In the bathroom Kari told me that she was ecstatic to see Justin and I together, and that Justin has wanted this for so long. I figured kari was talking about Justin wanting our friendship back for so long but just then kari asked if this was our first official date as a couple. I couldnt beleive my ears, what was kari talking about? I asked her what was that comment for and she looked at me blankly as if i didnt have a clue to what was going on and i didnt. But Kari kept babbling on and asked me "How did Justin confess his love for you? and why didnt u tell me you felt the same way for him too?" I was in complete shock, and I hadnt a clue as to what kari was going on about. Just then kari realized what she had done. but it was too late. I knew what was going on and everything was changed now. I left the bathroom and went back to dinner, not knowing what I was about to do , say , or even how to act around Justin. I knew something had changed between us but i never expected him to fall in love with me.
