Swear I Mean It This Time- Chapter Thirty-Two
You would think I would choose Justin after that, right? But I didn't, I went home with Josh that day. Justin was just too confusing, I could never let go of the thought that he would just change his mind one day. He was hurt, and I felt horrible for telling him no after that, but I just couldn't go it.
After a few days Josh forgave me for not telling him about Justin, and it definitely helped when I pubicly told Justin that it wouldn't work between the two of us. I got crap from the media, my family, Katie, and even his family- I got quite a few phone calls from Jeremy and Patti. No one understood how we could be totally into each other one moment, and completely disengaged the next. I think the problem was I was never really in love with Justin the second time, I was in love with the idea of being with him again. I believe he felt the same way...or at least that's what I told myself to not feel like a total dream killer.
Six months later Josh graduated from college, and I got a real job as a teacher. Drew was ten months old, and had started to crawl. He still refused to say 'mama' but would say other 'words'. He would call our cat 'Ba' and and when he was hungry he would go 'mmmmmmm.' It wasn't much, but it made me proud to be his mom. He was finally communicating, and it was a giant step.
That September Josh bought a house...big enough for all of us. We moved in all together, and it was nice to be a little family. Drew went to daycare when Josh and I were working, and we did fun little outings on the weekends. It wasn't much, I was only 20, he was 23, but we felt much older.
Drew had weekly visits with Justin, who had just started a new record label at the age of 22 with Scooter. The visitations were flexible based on our work schedules, but Justin always made time for Drew. Justin sold the apartment he originally bought for us, and moved into a loft in the middle of Boston. We were all making strides as young adults, transitioning into our real adult lives quite easily. I never knew if Justin had a girlfriend, I heard things here and there, but always chose to ignore them.
Kyle and Marie had broken their engagement, and Kyle and Marie moved in together a few months before I moved in with Josh. Marie was sad at first, but when she took a trip to Italy and met a hot italian guy, all her grief seemed to evaporate.
I met the rest of Josh's family a few weeks after the big move, and I finally made a good impression. I instantly bonded with his sisters, and everyone loved Drew. I was finally having a normal, drama free life. The best part of it all? Josh accepted Drew as his own. He was never my child, he was ours, and Josh treated him like his pride and joy. Drew knew that Justin was his dad, I was him mom, but I lived with Josh. He didn't call Josh 'dada' nor would I ever think Justin would allow it, but it was so cute watching them together.
Okay, I know this has been a crazy whip lash of events, but this is what I planned all along :) I wanted to skip ahead, and I'm going to pick up from this point, the story hasn't ended yet. Even if you don't like Elena with Josh, please keep reading, it makes me sad when I lose readers. You wouldn't stop reading a book just because you didn't like what happened, right? Or at least I don't do that...lol
