| Justin's house a week later.... For the past week, Justin had been calling Amelia. The day she left his house, she promised to call him, but there wasn't a single call from her and he was worried. All he could think about was Amelia since the day their feelings for eachother were revealed. He had never felt this way towards any girl that he ever dated and was scared in some ways. Amelia was different in many ways and that was what he liked about her. Finally after that fifth call and no answer, Justin got scared and he grabbed his keys and ran out the house. Jumping into his Mercedes, he drove off without the thought of even putting on his seat belt. Everytime he had to say for a red light, if you get very antsy. 35 minutes later... Justin finally made it to Amelia's apartment building and to his suprise, Amelia's car was there. Jogging up to the oor, he pulled it open and ran up to the third floor of the apartment building. Reaching, 7C, he knocked and got no answer. Knocked again, no answer. His knocks became frantic and he was screaming out her name. Amelia's next door neighbor, who was an elderly lady, opened her door to see what was all the racket. "Young man, what is going on? Are you harrasing the young woman?," asked Ms.James. "Oh, I'm so sorry if I have disturbed you. I'm looking for Amelia Jacobs. I saw her car out there so, I was guessing that she was home," said Justin, looking ashamed. "No need looking ashamed. I wouldn't blame you for worrying. I been worried too. She haasn't come out of that house since her argument with her parents. I don't exactly know what happened but the friend.... oh whats her name?.... Mya. Yeah, Mya moved out and she looked so hurt,",confessed Ms. James. "All of that happened and she didn't call me? I've been trying to call her for the past week and she won't answer. I'm worried about her, especially since I know her family background..now," said Justin. "Yeah. I think you should try for awhile longer. Hopefully she'll answer the door," said Ms. James, closing her door. Turning back aroung to Amelia's door, Justin decided to talk to her and hope she was listening. Leaning his back against the right side of her door, Justin gave an claming sigh. Before he could even talk, the door open and there stood Amelia. She looked like she had been crying for days and possibliy was wearing the same pj's she had on for the past week Justin immediately opened his arms, knowing she needed some sort of comfort.Like an magnet, she fel into his arms and strted crying. Walking them both into her arpartment, he kicked the door closed and sat them down on the couch. Moving her head away from Justin, sitting up, she stared at him through her teary eyes. "I'm dis-owned. I have no family or friends. No one. I chose you Justin and not my family and I don't regret it, but I hate the fact that they made me choose. Am I selfish because I wanted to be happy? Do I not deserve happiness?," said Amelia. "Wow.... you chose. You're dis-owned? It must have been hard for you and I'm sorry that you had to go through this. You are not selfish, you deserve all the happiness in the world. I honestly don't know what to say to you. This has just left me speechless," said Justin, holding Amleia's hand. "I didn't expect you to have an answer to my problem. I- I just wish that they could have been there for me and not turn against because I love them so much. I would have given my life for my family if it was necessary," said Amelia, with new fresh of tears welling up in her eyes. "I possibliy would never know what you are feeling, but lets not talk about this now. You've been dealing wih it for a week now and I have an great idea on how to make you smile and laugh again," smiled Justin. "You do? What is this idea you have ?and you are right about me letting it go for a while," asked Amelia, with a little smile creeping up on her face. "Well, you remember when you asked if we would ever have a first date?," asked Justin, smirking. Amelia nodding her head while she waited for him to finish. "I had been thinking about it since the day you asked. Amelia would you do me the honor of being my date?," asked Justin, kneeling on both knees, holding both of her hands. "Yes, yes I would love to be your date," said Amelia smiling and hugging Justin. "Then its settled. Tomorrow night at 7," said Justin," I told you I would make you smile. I love your smile. You look beautiful when you smile" "Aww... you are so sweet to me. I can't believe you aksed me out. I feel like a little school girl," giggled Amelia. "A school girl? Ok, now that is funny," said Justin. "You are the only one besides my Na na who could make me happy like this. I feel so lucky to have you because of that," said Amelia. "Yeah? Melia, you've never talked about your Na na except, when you compare her to something," said Justin. "Justin, that is another story I don't feel like going through right now. I promise that I will tell you, but not now," pleaded Amelia. "I understand, but guess what?," said Justin. "What?," said Amelia, with curious eyes. "I got a date, I got a date," sang Justin, while tickling Amelia on her side as she giggled. Back Home Chapter 28 |
