Trust Issues [Justin Bieber Love Story]

Chapter 26

*Sasha*

I picked a petal off the white flower I held in front of me. The flower was beautiful and full of life, not knowing the pain of being pulled apart until now. Unlike this flower, this wasn’t my first time feeling pain. I had been hurt over and over again throughout my life; feeling pieces of myself missing. Was it the feeling of doing the same to this innocent flower that was soothing me?

“I love you.” 

I picked off another petal. 

“I love you not.”

Petal after petal fell until I reached the last. But after all the soothing, I broke down in tears. Surely enough, the last petal was, ‘I love you.’

It had only been two days without him. Yet, that felt like a life time already. I wasn’t talking to Ally either so right now, I felt as alone as I had on prom night.

Why couldn’t I just have stuck to that plan?

No.

I was glad I didn't, because I was never completely alone now that I was pregnant. I had another person inside me who loves me as much as I love them.

A smile played on my lips. I wasn’t as alone as I realised. Somebody still loved me...

***

I smiled, pushing the door open, the sound of bells jingling as I entered. I watched as Emily, the girl who hired me yesterday, appeared from the stock cupboard.

“Hey, you’re here!” she chirped.

I nodded, walking towards the front counter and dropping my shoulder bag behind it. She leaned on the counter and smiled, handing me a piece of paper that appeared to have a schedule on it.

“Here are the hours and what to do...” she said pointing to my name with her perfectly manicured nails.

“Thanks, I’m sure I’ll get into routine quite quickly.”

“Great, just call out if you need me. I’ll be doing stock and you’re serving this morning. Make sure you put on a smile and greet every customer.” She winked and rounded the corner, now out of sight.

I let out a deep breath and slumped over on the counter. I liked this store, it was never extremely busy either. I guess that’s how Emily had survived on her own running this boutique for the last two months.

We didn’t open for another five or so minutes so I flipped my phone out of my pocket.

No new messages.

I sighed, setting my face book status to ‘at work.’ before locking my phone and slipping it into my bag. It was a pointless status, but it’s not like I had any creativity lately. Maybe this job would give me some and get my mind off the hurt.

Remember Sasha, you are working for your baby.

*Justin*

I never cried, I was strong. I’ve broken up with girls countless times in my life and I never even flinched. Not even when I watched them walk past with puffy eyes from tears. Not even when I watched them become depressed and leave their friends. Not even when they begged me to take them back.

But there’s a difference between those girls and Sasha. Sasha was my everything and I would do anything for her. She knew that as much as I knew it myself. I had helped her get rid of her trust issues and she trusted again. She trusted me. Only me.

Not only have I let her spiral out of control back to ‘No Trustville,’ but I had lost her. Possibly forever.

No, the girl I have fallen for is also carrying my baby.

I’m sure she still has feelings for me; she would be as hurt as I am.

Ally was her best friend. Of course she was getting involved. It was her job. I would have done the same and obviously here, I was in the wrong. I was the jealous type, but it was always something I had pushed behind me. I never felt it with many of the girls I dated because I just wanted to look cool and get in as many girl's pants as possible.

I felt it with some though, if they flirted with other guys while they were with me. But I didn’t hurt like this; I just had beaten the guys up. But who could I beat up now when I’m jealous? There’s no other guy, just her best friend...that’s a girl.

I had to find a way to get her back. But first I needed to get rid of this jealousy...

I needed to confront Ally. 

*Ally*

I had never expected to see a text from Justin appear on my phone. Especially at this time after Justin and Sasha had broken up.

Sasha hasn’t talked to me since, probably too upset from it all. Maybe Justin would tell me the reason behind the split. I was curious.

I unlocked my phone to read the text but as I did so, there was a loud knock on my door. I sighed, dropping my phone on the lounge and walking to the door. I pryed it open only to reveal Justin standing there, a clear frown on his face.

“Did you get my text?” he asked me.

I had never heard such a lifeless voice, he didn’t sound himself, nor did he look himself. He was hurting and it was so noticeable.

“No, I didn’t have the chance.” I told him, “Why are you here?”

“Do you know the story?” he sighed, running a hand through his hair.

I shook my head, “Sasha won’t talk to me.”

“Sh-sh-she won’t?” he stuttered.

I shook my head, “Mind telling me the story?”

He nodded, “That’s the reason why I’m here.”

I shut the door behind him and he took a seat on the couch next to me. He looked even duller since I told him Sasha wasn’t talking to me. Was there a reason behind it, or?

“We had a fight.” he started, “Because I was jealous.”

“What of?” I asked curiously, "I didn’t know another boy was in the picture...”

“You. I’m sorry if this hurts you but I need to get if off my chest. I’m the jealous type and ever since you have known, you and her are always together. She’s my girlfriend and is carrying my baby. She cancelled on me every time for you. I missed being alone with her. So, I yelled at her about your friendship...”

I watched him burying his head in his hands, once again upset. I think I mimicked his actions because I too, was crying.

No wonder she wasn’t talking to me. I was the reason.
