Chapter 35
2 months later...
Amelia was sitting on her couch reading the latest magazine on her realationship with Justin. She couldn't believe that people would purposely say so many lies about her. I guess you could say she was very naive when it came to trusting and wanting that trust back. Here she was, sitting all alone in her apartment reading something so pathethic and useless and Justin was miles away in California, recording the last bits of the 'Celebrity' album. Thing had all gone downhill for her from the time the press got a hold of their realtionship. People at school would ignore or insult her and she quit her job at the resturaunt because people would come in to harass her. These were the many things she knew Justin could not protect her from, no matter how much he wanted too.

Everywhere she turned, there was a magazine about her or on the television. It made her sick to know that Mya had done this and all the money she must be recieving from these popular shows and mags. Just thinking of Mya in general made her mad, sick, sad, and betrayed. She couldn't get the words " Pain. I want you to feel the pain of being hurt by a white man and the difference between black and white." out of her head. Those words and the sound of Mya's voiced had scared her when she listened to her voicemail. She had not told Justin about it because he was already under enough stress as it was and this would be too much. The shrills of the phone broke her out of her thoughts as she reached to grab it.

"Hello, this is Amelia. May I please know whos speaking?," she asked.

"Hello to you too Sweets," laughed Justin into the reciever.

"Justin! I'm so glad you called. I miss you so much," shrieked Amelia.

"I miss you too. I called to make sure my babygirl was doing alright without me," said Justin.

"No, I'm not. Since no one is in Orlando, I'm here all by myself and I've been locked up in my apartment for the last 2 days. The press wont leave me alone," said Amelia, twirling the end of the telefone cord. Justin sighed as he heard Amelia speak those words. Only he wished, he could make these people stop bothering her, but he couldn't.

"I know how that is. Don't make the press run
your life. I hear its bright and sunny out so, please enjoy it. You know what? Why don't you go an spend some time with momma. She'll be so glad to have you and the two of you can do some girly stuff," said Justin.

"Ha ha ha, girl stuff? Nice way to put it J. I think I'll take that offer. I feel bored and lonely so why not," smiled Amelia, into the phone.

"That my girl. I also called to tell you about a big suprise I have planned for us before I get busier. Just the two of us. Alone. No press and cameras. Well besides Lonnie," said Justin.

"Oooooh, now I'm really excited. Lonnie? Not to sound selfish or anythingbecause I love the guy to piece, but it won't be special with a big bodyguard looking over you the whole trip, complained Amelia.

"Don't worry about Lonnie, ok. Lonnie knows when to back off and let us have space. it really doesn't matter to me as long as you're with me," said Justin.

"Awww, you are so sweet! Ok, I agree, but where are we going to be going?," asked Amelia.

"Nope. No can do. The only thing you will know is that it has beautiful beaches. That means, pack all summer like clothing and a bathing suit," said Justin, being very tight lipped about their vaction.

"Justin, you are so mean, but I'll let this one slide because I'm very excited," whinned Amelia.

"Ok, I'm glad that we have everything settled. I'm sorry to cut this short, but I have to go," said Justin.

"I know. Get back to work so you can finish early and come home to mama," laughed Amelia.

"Ha ha ha, I love you," laughed Justin.

"I love you too, Ju Ju bee," said Amelia, pressing the end button.
