That can't be true. But, there is no reason not to believe him. "Justin, quit fooling around." I say. He looks at me and says, "I'm not joking. Do you really think I am playing a JOKE!" he says, kind of annoyed. I think he is telling the truth. "How did you get lost? I mean, how could you get lost?" I ask. He sits himself down on the sidewalk and I sit beside him. I can tell he is really tired.
"There were a group of girls, like 40 of them or something", he continues, "They obviously started chasing me and Kenny wasn't around. No one was..."he says
"And then you ran into a random street and got lost." I finish for him. He looks at me and says, "yes". We sit there silent for a few moments.
"Come to my place", I say suddenly. "What?" Justin looks at me. "Come to my place. Maybe you can message someone on twitter or something." He looks confused but finally agrees to go with you. "Fine." He stands up and pulls me to my feet. He keeps a hold on my hands and says, "thanks alot. Really. I appreciate it." I smile at him and start walking towards your house.
Walking home gives us the chance to know each other. We talk about a lot of thing and end up holding hands. I walk in the front door and hear my mum cooking. "Honey, you home? Can you help me out in here." she says from the kitchen. I smile at Justin and motion him to follow me. I walk into the kitchen and see my mother is busy. My dad walks in the kitchen the same time my mum turns around. They get shocked to see Justin with me.
I explain everything to them. They deny at first, but finally agree to let him sleep on the couch outside. I take him to my room to relax and fresh up before dinner. I hear him wash is face in my bathroom as I sit on my bed. "Hey, I'm sorry about the couch thing. I could have let you sleep on my bed for a night..." I say, hoping he could hear. He wipes his face to the towel and says, "no, its totally fine. I like it" he continues, "the way your parents treat me. I like it." He smiles at me and my heart melts.
This guy is so down to earth, I think. Never expected him to be so... so normal
