"I didn't forget, I thought you forgot tho. You are about 14 and half hours late," he pointed out.
Dinah looked down at her hands as she played with them, "Yeah, sorry about that. Gina was sick and she wanted me to take care of her. I tried to explain to her that I had to go somewhere, and then she started crying saying I would've stayed if it was Seth. She said Seth was my favorite, and of course that's not true, I love all my siblings equally it's just that Seth is youngest so he needs to be taken care of. So I tried telling her that, but she insisted that Seth was my favorite. She said if I left than I didn't love her, and it all got really dramatic. So I had to stay with her, you see, because-" Dinah ranted, but was interrupted when Justin pulled her in for a hug.
"It's cool Dinah. I understand. If Jazzy were sick I'd do the same thing. Is Gina alright?" he asked as he lead her inside to the kitchen.
Dinah sighed, "Yeah she's fine, just a cold. It took a lot of convincing to let me leave this morning tho, plus I had to sing her to back to sleep."
Justin sat down in a chair motioning Dinah to do the same.
"Sounds like a pretty good deal on Gina's end of things."
Dinah smirked, "You'd love to convince me to do something wouldn't you?"
Justin smirked back, "I would, but only if I'm allowed to."
"I'll allow it," she said as she stood up and walked over to Justin.
She stood behind him as he sat. She placed her hands on his shoulders and leaned close to his ear, "Try and convince me," she whispered as she then left a lingering kiss on his cheek.
She could feel him tense up, and that made her smirk even more. She walked away letting her hands slowly slide off his shoulders. As she walked towards his living room he got up and followed her perplexed but intrigued as ever. As she was about to sit down he gently grabbed her wrist and pulled her in close to him. She gasped at their proximity, they were so close. Her arm rested on his chest between them as her other hand was in his. She looked up at him, and he looked down at her with love and lust in his eyes.
"Why would you do that, knowing how I feel?" he asked as he looked at her in all her beauty and brushed her hair away from her face.
She shrugged as she tried to avoid his gaze. He placed his finger underneath her chin as he lifted her head so she was looking at him. Her eyes darted between his, she was feeling flirty earlier, but now she was just sheepish. They looked at eachother for a little bit before Justin took her remaining hand, that was on his chest, in his other hand. He held it and gazed at every inch of her longingly.
"You're beautiful Dinah," he said as he caressed her face with his right hand. She leaned into his touch.
"You said you wanted to be convinced," he started.
"And I have," she said as she reached up and gave him a slow gentle kiss on his lips. Justin immediately kissed back making their lips mold together as they moved in sync. When they separated, each drew in a breath, and rested their foreheads against each other. Dinah looked down at the ground as she bit her quivering bottom lip and tears formed.

"Hey, hey, hey. What's wrong? I'm sorry for whatever I did wrong," Justin said worriedly as he held her closer to him. She took in a shakey breath and shook her head.
"Justin, I'm- I shouldn't have done that. I- I have to go," she said as she separated herself from Justin and gathered her things.
She started rushing to the door but Justin hurried to block the exit, "Wait Dinah, what's wrong? What'd I do?" he asked worriedly.
She only managed to shake her head.
"Look, Dinah, whatever I did I'm sorry," he said with a pleading look on his face.
She shook her head again, "Stop apologizing! You didn't do anything!" she exclaimed.
"Than what's wrong?" he asked searching her eyes. She looked into his eyes before immediately shutting hers and facing towards the ground. His finger brought her head back up, but her eyes stayed shut.
"Dinah, open your eyes," said Justin in a soothing tone. But she didn't.
"Please," he pleaded. She quietly sighed and slowly opened her eyes. He was staring straight at her, a slight smile appeared on his lips. "Now, will you please tell me what's wrong."
"...my son worked hard to become what he is, and if he dates a fat nobody like you his name will be dragged even farther in the dirt than it already has been. I will not allow that to happen, and if you really love him you won't want that to happen."
Dinah remembered those words distinctly, and believed them to be true, but she now knew she loved Justin and didn't want his name dragged through the dirt.
"Dinah," Justin said waving his hand in front of her face, "Hello..."
She snapped out of it and looked at him again. He let out a cute chuckle, "There you are," he said with his infamous smile.
But it wasn't there long because he saw something in Dinah's eyes that made him worry. He held both of her hands securely in his.
"What's wrong baby?" he asked tenderly.
He wasn't making this any easier.
Dinah didn't know how to answer at that moment. So many emotions were flying around in her head, before she knew it she grabbed his face and planted a deep yet rushed kiss to his lips. "I love you..." she said in answer to his previous question.
He didn't have time to respond because Dinah slipped by him and ran out the door, into her car, and left the property.
"What the fuck man?" Justin sighed out as he ran his hand through his hair.
