Justin

earlier

I was laying on my bed trying to figure out a way to get my girlfriend back. Brooklyn hasn't come to school, so I haven't had the opportunity to talk to her. It was driving me crazy, I needed her, and I know she needs me. It upsets me to know that I caused her so much pain for something that wasn't even her fault.

"Justin!" My sister calls from downstairs, I groan and roll out of bed. "What?" I say as I made my way over to my sister and my mother. "Justin honey, we're worried about you." My mom coos and I roll my eyes. I was just fine, they're all treating me like I'm some mental patient you have to watch out for. "There's nothing to be worried about, I'm perfectly fine." I sigh as I grab a apple from the fruit tray and bite it.

"Justin you're not fine and you know it." Jazzy scoffs and I roll my eyes, if I wasn't then that's really none of their concern, I'm almost eighteen, I can take care of myself. "I am fine and even if I wasn't that's none of your damn concern." I know that may have been a little harsh but I'm tired of everyone treating me like I'm stupid and I need help. "Justin! That's no way to talk to us, we're only here to help!" I roll my eyes at my mom, here to help? Where was she when I needed her most? she thinks she can pull that card? Lol no.

"Yeah, Justin we're only here to help, I hate seeing you like this.." Jazzy sighs. "If you really wanted to help, then go get my girlfriend back! Can you do that? No so shut up and stop trying kiss up to everyone, no one likes that, it's annoying as hell." I scowl and Jazzy widens her eyes, I know I shouldn't have said that but when I get mad I didn't really have control over what I say, and right now I was beyond mad. "Justin I'm your sister, I only want to help you and make sure you're ok!" She yells at me and I roll my eyes.

"I don't need you're help, you couldn't even possibly even know how to help me! Everything for you has always been perfect. You're a spoiled brat whose never had to deal with any problems, So I don't expect you to even comprehend how to handle this." When I said that it instantly made me regret it once I looked at Jazzy's face, she had tears rolling down her face and I felt like the biggest asshole alive. "Jazzy wait I-"before I could finish the sentence she was gone. "God Justin why do you mess everything up!" I yell as I kick the counter, throwing the apple in the garbage I just sank to the floor against the cabinets.

"Justin, honey you're not a screw up." My mom sinks down too. "I know you're upset about Brooklyn, but mopping around here and screaming at us isn't gonna change anything, unless you do." She turns towards me with those big brown eyes, that were always full of compassion. "I just don't know what to do, everything's falling apart because of me," I let the tears that were threatening to come out, slowly fall down my face. "I miss her mom, I miss her more than I've ever missed anyone before. I love her so much more than anything." It didn't take much thinking to know I was talking about Brooklyn. "I know, but sitting here isn't gonna bring her back, I want you to first find Jazzy and apologize, then go get your girlfriend back" my mom smiles at me and I nod.

I guess I owed that to both of them. Grabbing my jacket off the hock I say goodbye to my mom before walking out to find my sister and get my girlfriend back.

"Jazzy! Jazzy!" I had spotted her by some girl who I couldn't make out just yet but that didn't made right now I need to talk to Jazzy. "Jazzy, I've been looking all over for you and I didn't mean to upset you, you know I'm just upset and I- " jazzy stops me and shakes her head. "It's ok Justin, besides I think there's something else that needs to be discussed.." She says motioning towards the girl behind her, who had decided to look up at me and I knew it was Brooklyn. "See you at home big bro." Jazzy pats me on the back before waking off.
