“Yeah, we’re okay.. Er, or as okay as we can be right now.”
“What are you talking about? Justin, what’s going on?” She demanded, I sighed but told her what happened after I hung up with her before; I left out the part where I called my mom and asked her for advice on making Bella feel better, since I was gonna ask her that. “Oh my god, that fucking bastard!”
“Yeah, tell me about it.”
“Justin, you don’t know the half of it.”
“Actually, I know all of it.”
There was a pause before she spoke, or whisper would be more accurate.
“Did… Did Bella tell you? About him?”
“Yeah, I knew you weren’t ever going to so I asked her. But before you get mad she didn’t just up and tell me, I had to convince her it was better if I knew. She’ll have to tell Tay too, we made a deal that she would tell both of us.” There was silence on the other end, did she hang up? “Lex? You still there?”
“Sorry, yeah I’m here. And I’m sorry I didn’t tell you Justin, I was only trying to protect you.”
“Lex?”
“Yeah?”
“Next time, protect me by telling me the truth.”
“Okay Jay.”
“On another matter, I need your help.” I said, I heard her yawn on the other end or was that me? Either way I felt bad for waking her up but I wanted Bella in somewhat normal state before I pass out.
“What is it?” Lex asked, I sighed before looking at Bella once again; the only thing moving was her shoulders as she breathed.
“It’s Bella, she’s scaring me.” I told her, that must’ve woke her up because she was suddenly alert.
“What’s she doing?”
“Nothing.”
“Nothing?”
“Nope, the only thing she’s doing is breathing.” I said, I walked in front of her to see her face emotionless as she stared at the floor; she must’ve done this before because Alexis started to ask questions.
“Is she hugging her knees to her chest?” I furrowed my eyebrows.
“Uh, yeah.”
“Her face expressionless?”
“Uh-huh.”
“She’s only breathing and looking at the floor?”
