The Stripper; Twenty Five {Justlena}
~Selena's POV~
"Twerk it up bitch!" I heard Demi yell at her friend Miley. Obviously Demi was already drunk. I watched Miley twerk from afar and I had to say, if she had an ass, she would be killing it right now. But at the same time, it was hot watching Miley twerk.
My 21st birthday party has been going on for over an hour, and it was boring as hell. Of course other people were having fun, but I wasn't. Jc even went out of his way to make this the best birthday ever. He bought all the food, a chocolate fountain, and a ton of desserts. The food including of chicken, pasta, steak, salad, and chips. The dessert buffet included of chocolate cake, vanilla cake, different cupcakes, and different cookies. The only thing I had to do in return was sleep with Jc.
Another 10 minutes went by and something finally caught my eye. All the way across the room, I saw Justin. Last time I checked, he wasn't on the guest list. I began stomping over to Justin and to my surprise, he actually looked please to see me. But I wasn't.
"Happy birthday," Justin said softly once I reached. I think he noticed that I wasn't too happy because then he said "Jake invited me. I hope you don't mind."
I did mind, but I wouldn't actually say that. Instead I just said "Thanks for coming. Enjoy yourself." I tried to walk away, but Justin grabbed my hand.
"Jake told me it was important for me to come. Are you okay?"
At first I was confused, but then I caught on. Jake knew about Jc and he thought that Justin could stop me. I love my brother, but he drives me insane. "I'm perfectly fine. Now if you excuse me, I have to find my parents." I knew my parents were here, but I have been avoiding them. However, I would talk to the, if that meant I wouldn't have to talk to Justin.
But of course, a bright look appeared on Justin's face. "Your parents are here? I thought you guys didn't talk?"
I rolled my eyes. Obviously Justin didn't know how to take a hint. "Well Jake invited them. It's not just my birthday. Plus, maybe it's time to bury the hatchet." Right when I said that, I realized that it really was time to put everything in the past. I'm 21 years old now. Jasmine just turned 6 a few months ago. I'm a struggling parent. I needed MY parents. And it only took 6 years to finally admit it.
Justin ran his fingers through his hair awkwardly while he said "If you want, I can come with you to talk to them."
All I did was shrug. Justin obviously took that as a yes since he began following me around. I stopped in my tracks once I saw my parents walking towards me. All of a sudden, I couldn't breathe. It was like I was 15 all over again. I think Justin noticed because he wrapped his arm around me. Surprisingly, I actually calmed down a bit.
Once my parents reached me, my father, David, was the first to speak. "My god. Selena, you look beautiful."
I smiled as I wrapped my arms around my dad. He was always the sweet one. While we were hugging, my mother, Marina said: "It's wonderful to see you, Selena. You look fantastic." Of course, my mother noticed Justin and made a bitchy remark. "Oh, is this your new boyfriend? You aren't pregnant again, are you?"
There was now tension. I would be surprised if someone couldn't feel it. Before I could even reply, Justin spoke up. "Actually I'm your granddaughter's teacher. And even if Selena was pregnant again, you would be lucky to be a grandmother. Jasmine is an amazing girl."
I turned to face Justin. I was beyond shocked that he actually stuck up for me. I had to say, that was the sweetest thing he has said.
My dad cleared his throat before saying: "So Demi told us that you know the guy who owns this mansion? That's incredible. You must have an amazing job."
I faked a laugh. If only he knew... "Yeah, I guess so." There was an awkward pause. "Well, thanks for coming." I quickly grabbed Justin and pulled him to the side. "Why did you stick up for me?"
Justin shrugged and he glanced at the ground. "Now I can see why you can't stand your mother." He looked up at me. "She had no reason to treat you that way."
I swallowed hard. As much as I wanted to stay mad at Justin, I really couldn't. He just stuck up for me. That was the nicest thing anyone has done for me. Without even thinking, I took a step closer to Justin and kissed him. Right when he kissed me back, I quickly pulled away. "Oh my god," I mumbled.
Justin chuckled as he ran his fingers through my hair. "Don't worry about it. But I have an important question." I didn't even say anything, I just stared into Justin's eyes while he asked: "Be my girlfriend?"
I smiled wide. I wrapped my arms around as I whispered I'm his ear "Yes."
Justin grinned from ear to ear as he wrapped his arms around me tightly. Now that we were dating, I really had to tell Justin everything. I had to stop putting this off.
