Chapter 8: The Plan
Justin had been avoiding JC for the past few days. He only spoke to him
when he had to. He didn't want to hurt JC, but he needed some time to
figure things out. He hadn't gotten much sleep since the Toy Room incident.
That was very evident. He decided to catch a few z's since they were on the
buses and on their way to the next city. He lay back in his bunk, resting his
head on the pillow. He closed his eyes, preparing for slumber. His preparations
were interrupted, however, by the melodious ring of his cell phone. He took
it out of his pocket with a groan. He pushed the "Yes" button to accept
the call and brought it to his ear. "Hello?"
"Hi, Justin,"a cheery voice said into the phone.
"What is it, Britney? I'm tired. I need to sleep,"Justin said with a yawn; his eyes remained closed.
"Are you still mad at me?"
"No, Brit, I'm not mad."
"Good."
"Is that what you called me for?" Justin asked with a sigh. He hated to admit it, but he missed her voice. It always put a smile on his face.
"No, I was kinda wondering...would you forgive me enough to take me
back. I'm really sorry, Justin. When I was with that guy, I realized that I was
in love with you."
Take her back? How could she ask him to do that so easily? Wait a
minute, this was the perfect opportunity. He could test his attraction to
women. Britney was one of the most attractive people out right now. He would
sleep with her, and if he felt something anywhere near attraction or love,
then he was straight.
"Ok...baby. I'll take you back,"Justin said finally. Baby. God, he could barely even say the word. He could just see the smile on her face.
"Oh, God, baby, thank you!"
"No problem. Actually, we'll be in Nevada tomorrow. You should stop
by the Ritz. I wanna see you. Tomorrow night, after the concert, come by."
"You won't be too tired?"
"I'm never too tired for my baby."
"Ok, I'll see you tomorrow night. Well, I gotta go book my flight, so I'll
see you tomorrow night. Bye, bye, sweetie."
"Bye, bye,"Justin said as he ended the call and pocketed his cell
again. He now had a plan. Falling asleep wasn't such a hard task now.
