~ Chapter 17: You Kinda Ruined Me  ~

[ Justin’s POV: ]

I sleepily opened my eyes, my vision recovering from the blurry objects. After blinking a couple of times, I caught Alicia looking up at me, her head rested against my bare chest as she slowly yet gently caressed the side of my neck.

“Good morning,” she smiled, leaning down to kiss my abs. I inhaled a deep breath, not accustomed to having her so close to me since the breakup.

“Morning,” I whispered, my cheeks blushing when I realized we were both still naked, the morning sunlight brightening the room through the curtains.

A silence soon fell upon us—one that I, personally, found uncomfortable though I knew Alicia wasn’t disturbed by it at all. Maybe it’s because she confused the shit out of me. What we did last night… Does this mean we’re a thing now? Did we just get back together? Or am I getting mixed signals here? Is she using me for her own pleasure?

“Stop,” Alicia sighed. “I know what you’re thinking about.”

I looked at her, raising an eyebrow. “And what would that be?”

As I awaited for her to reply, I couldn’t help but stare at her beautiful lips. I remember thinking I wouldn’t mind kissing them all day and that’s exactly what’s running through my mind again right at this second.

“I confused you, didn’t I?” she half-smiled, holding me even tighter. “You don’t know where our relationship stands as of right now, do you?”

“How did you k—?”

“—We had been together long enough for me to know these things,” she interrupted my question. “But, Justin… I told you I still love you. Why are you doubting me?”

“Because it’s too good to be true,” I confessed. “I was madly in love with you and you let me go. You broke my heart. I had spent every single second of my life since that day to mend the broken pieces, all meanwhile poorly keeping up a good image. You kinda ruined me and you didn’t even know it. My biggest mistake? I never stopped loving you. I eventually wrote a song to help me deal with the pain and get it out to the world and you… You suddenly want me back… So… Why?”

“Why do I want you back?” she asked.

“Yeah. After all this mess, why now?” I swallowed hard, seeing her hesitate.

“The feelings you poured out through the song was exactly how I felt. I still love you, I still believe in us and I was heartbroken too, you know. Need I remind you why I broke up with you in the first place?” She looked up at me through her long lashes, blinking innocently at me.

“My management made me isn’t an excuse to break up with me, Ali. If Scooter told me to leave the person I love, I’d fight back. I wouldn’t just give up that easily,” I scoffed. “And need I remind you the many arguments we would have per day? You couldn’t deal with it. I, on the other hand… I was still here, ready to fight for you.”

Alicia bit her lip. “I admit, we did argue quite often before I called it off. But… That wasn’t because we had problems with each other, it was because we had problems with the media. They were the ones that caused us to fight so much—to argue about everything. Now? Now we know better. I love you, Justin. And I promise… I promise I’ll fight as long as you need me to.”

I stared long and hard into her blueish orbs. As my heart warmed at her words, I reached my hand out to tuck a strand of her hair behind her ear.

“I love you too,” I whispered, kissing her softly and as light as a feather. With her naked breasts against my chest, I wrapped my arms around her waist and molded our bodies as one. It was when Alicia had let out a delicate moan into my mouth that I remembered something I knew I was forgetting. “Shit,” I pulled away, my head falling back against the pillows.

“What’s wrong?” Ali asked, her voice dainty and innocent.

I pecked her lips and rolled us over so that I was on top, taking it as my chance to slip out of bed and put my clothes on. “Remember how I said to make last night’s chat as quick as possible?”

“Yeah?” she raised an eyebrow, gripping the blankets to cover her naked body.

“Remember why I strictly made sure you were quick?” I asked. Her face continued to look at me in confusion before her eyes suddenly widened.

“Didn’t you say something about planning a guy’s night with Fredo?” her tone was edgy.

“Exactly, and I completely forgot,” I let out a frustrated growl. Upon seeing me irritated, and knowing I had to face an angry Alfredo when I got back, Alicia got up from the bed and walked over to me, her hands holding my arms firmly.

“It’s okay, I’m sure he’d understand,” she whispered comfortingly, leaning on her tippy toes to plant a kiss on my cheek. My cheeks flushed a vivid red, considering she was standing completely naked and didn’t seem bothered by the fact that she had no clothes on at all.

And me? I’m a teenage boy. Yes, with hormones and all. I can’t just look at a naked girl this close to me, her figure standing tall and revealing every single aspect of her body, without doing something about it.

“I’m sure he will,” I said huskily, gripping her ass in both hands and lifting one of her legs to wrap around my waist. Her breasts now against my shirt, I kissed her hungrily as she wrapped an arm around my neck and slowly guided me back to the bed. In the blink of an eye, my pants were gone again and Alicia slipped a hand inside my boxers and began to massage my dick teasingly.

“F-fuck,” I moaned, clutching on to her nude shoulders. She began to slide down my boxers with her other hand, her tongue flicking over the head as I panted helplessly. “Ali, stop. Seriously…”

“Just let me bring you pleasure, baby,” she winked. “Just before you go.”

She lowered one hand to begin to massage my balls, the other continuing to stroke my dick tenderly while she placed a few kisses on top. A wave of pleasure shot throughout my body as I let out multiple moans, my chest heaving up and down as sweat began to surface from my forehead.

“Damn, girl,” I breathed, grabbing her arm to stop her. Flipping us over so that I was on top,  I caressed her legs and held them in place around my waist, positioning myself to her entrance. Just as I was about to introduce pleasure to us both, my phone began ringing loudly, causing me to let out a long breath I didn’t know I was holding in.

“Go,” Ali nodded assuringly, eyeing my phone. I bit my lip and slowly leaned closer to her, my lips brushing against her cheek and to her neck.

“Thanks,” I whispered, kissing the skin lightly and getting off of the bed, putting my clothes back on before picking up the phone. “Hello?” I said into the receiver.

“JB,” a familiar voice greeted me. “Where the hell you been?”

“Twist,” a smile creeped upon my lips. “How are you?”

“Man, I’m great. I was wondering when we could hang out, actually.”

“Hang out?” I looked over at Alicia, only to see her staring at me, a huge smile on her face as she sat up on the bed, the blankets covering her naked body. I just couldn’t help but smile back.

“Ye… You know… Me, you and Za?” he clarified.

“Tonight?”

“Tonight.”

I paused. “Hold on, Twist.” Lowering my phone to my stomach, I slapped a hand to the mic, attempting to block any sound from entering as I gazed up at Alicia. “Ali, is it okay if I’m gone all day today?”

“Why wouldn’t it be?” she shrugged, slightly confused.

“I just thought you’d be upset because you’d want to spend more time with me.”

“Well I do but… I won’t be so obsessed you couldn’t even hang out with your friends,” she pointed out.

“Are you sure you don’t want to do something tonight instead? The two of us?

She playfully rolled her eyes, standing up from the bed and, once again, walking over to me in her birthday suit.

“Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine,” she whispered seductively in my ear, her index finger trailing up and down my abs as she kissed my neck.

“Are you positive?” I moaned softly.

“I’m positive.” She pulled away and looked at me before grabbing her undergarments from the floor and putting them on. I swallowed hard, watching the sight of her just being her beautiful self before returning my phone to my ear.

“Twist?” I called out, wanting to make sure he was still there.

“Yes?”

“If you can text me the time and place, then count me in,” I said.

“Alright cool, will do,” I heard him say before there was silence. After a couple of seconds, he spoke again. “JB?”

“Yeah?”

“Was that you moaning just a few seconds ago?” he said casually, though in a teasing tone, causing my cheeks to blush red.

“Maybe?”

“What, you’re having sex with Alfredo or something?”

The name hit me in the gut, reminding me of what I should be doing right now.

“Fucking shit,” I murmured under my breath.

“What? What’s wr—”

“—Gotta go, Twist. See you later,” I cut him off, hanging up right afterwards and turning to Alicia once again. “Baby, I have to go.”

“I understand,” she forced a smile.

“Will you be okay here all by yourself?” There was concern in my voice, my overprotective-boyfriend side kicking in.

“Just as I’ve always been,” she dramatized a shrug.

“Alright, then I’ll call you whenever I’ll be coming back. Bye, Ali.”

I turned around, ready to walk out the room and out to the world but a voice held me back.

“Wait!” Alicia called out, causing me to stop suddenly.

“What?” I asked.

She shyly switched from tippy toes to her normal standing position and repeating the process a few times. “Good luck and… I love you.”

There was something about her voice that was warm and friendly, and it was making my breathing patterns unstable.

“I love you too,” I spoke quietly, as if the words were fragile—if spoken too loudly, very likely to break.

Alicia tackled me with a hug and kissed me nice and slow for no longer than two minutes before she pulled away and letting me know it was okay if I left. But the only thing I was thinking about when I was walking out of the hotel with my hoodie over my head was…

I really did win her back, didn’t I?

What’d you guys think? Is shit real or is it real? Don’t worry, if it ain’t real enough for you yet I might just have something to make up for it up my sleeves…
