The Only Exception:ETERNALLY

30. Welcome back

3rd person POV
"I'm sure every girl , and some guys have had Bieber fever at least once in their life time," Vanessa contently as the girls munched on their breakfast in the living room.

"Oh I think the fuck not," Rose shook her head,"i never had Bieber fever"
"Neither have i ," Syd agreed with Rose , making Vanessa gape in utter disbelief

"No fucking way,"she denied,"neither of you had Bieber fever?!"she exclaimed as if it was utterly unacceptable to society

"And that's a crime because?..."
"So your telling me that none of you have not once imagined walking down the isle with a thousand years playing in the background with Justin Bieber waiting for you at the alter?!" She said it so fast that rose and Syd missed a few words.

"Well i have imagined walking down the isle with a thousand years playing in the background,"Rose admitted
"Yeah me too," Syd nodded,"just not with Justin Bieber"

"Oh ma gaaad,"Vanessa fanned her face dramatically ,"y'all have got to be kidding me ,"
"He's not my type,"Syd shrugged as she chugged down the last of her fruit juice
"Neither is he mine,"rose and Syd clicked their glasses together

"Yeah because you're knee deep in Jackson's heart,"Vanessa teased
Rose felt the heat rush up her cheeks at the mention of her boyfriend.
"Aw look she's blushing and shiii," Sydney pointed at the older's cheeks,"you're in looooovvvveeee!" Vanessa sang

"Y'all are really annoying," rose tried to bite down her smile in vain
"Aww they're gonna get married and stuff," Vanessa food as she swung her fork around doing a little dance.
"We gon be the bridesmaids and stuff!!"V and Syd yelled simultaneously
"Oh my gosh can y'all stop"

"Oh Sydney sweetheart!" Vanessa called for her friend who was literally sitting besides her
"Yes Vanessa sweetheart?"
"Are you aware .. no have you heard that our dear friend Jackson is releasing an album in a couple months time?" She grinned maniacally
"Oh i wasn't aware,"Sydney pretended to be oblivious, taping her index against the frame of her spectacles,"and what's the name of this album you say?"
Rose immediately covered her ears as she knew what was about to come
"Rose!" The two screamed in unison

"That's the hundredth time you've done that this week alone guys," rose faked sternness
"Well it's hard not to be excited because he named a freaking album after you!" Sydney exclaimed cheerily as she gathered her friends'plates , placing them in the sink

"That's so sweet, isn't it?" Vanessa cooed ,"he's really down bad for you rose" she clapped excitedly
"The feeling is mutual,"Rose gushed
"Simping for eachother is really cute" Sydney grinned

"She must've really let him hit it,"Vanessa teased , wiggling her eyebrows
"Everything has to be so sexual with you v ,"rose pushed herself off the couch and walked towards the counter
"It always is ,"the younger winked

"Anyways, The bin is full . It's your turn to take out the trash Syd"
"Seriously,"Syd whined as her shoulders dropped
"Yes seriously"
"Sucks to be you,"Vanessa laughed
"Sucks to be me," syd sighed getting the large trash bag from beneath the counter top ,"I'll be back in a minute"

She pushed the door open , stumbling through it with the large garbage bag.
She placed the bag down ,letting the door close behind her. She wiped her forehead.

The last week had been calm or what she could say as the closest to calm.
Back at work she hadn't seen Hardin the entire week. Initially she felt relieved but was beginning to feel anxious by his absence. But judging by the flaccid atmosphere with Leone and Adam , it didn't seem like there was anything actually wrong with him. Plus that's how it was supposed to be , she concluded,it was it for them.
