I stared at my overnight bag, anxiously awaiting Justin. This is crazy but I was excited. I had told Sam and she was practically bubbling over with giddiness.

A gentle double knock came from the suite's front door.

Oh damn.

One foot in front of the other, I carefully made my way to the door. I twisted the doorknob and creaked the door open slowly.

There he stood.

He had his hands stuffed in his acid-washed jeans pockets with his thumbs peeping out. His body was embraced loosely with a deep blue hoodie with a patched denim jacket over it. His lips curved upward into a crooked smile. His hands slipped out from his pockets and extended towards me. He snaked his arms around my waist and stepped closer to me.

"Hi," I whispered.

"Hey," he whispered back and rested his forehead against mine. His eyes drooped shut, "it's so good to hold you again."

He took the words right out my mouth.

"I missed you," I kept my head forward so I could avoid his gaze. It still flustered me to admit that out loud to him.

"I missed you too, Char," he slipped his hands down from my waist to my lower back. It made me shiver. It's one move away from my ass. His hands on me was something to get used to. But definitely something that wouldn't take long to get used to.

"Oh my god."

That wasn't me.

That wasn't Justin.

"Oh my god," Sam repeated as she stood frozen staring at Justin and I.

Justin slowly detached from me and stuffed his hands back into his pockets.

"Sam... this is--"

"Justin. Hi," Sam nodded in Justin's direction.

"Hi Sam, nice to meet you," Justin removed one hand from his pockets and extended it to her. She hesitantly gripped his hand and vigorously shook it.

"Sam, chill," I mumbled to her.

She instantly let go of his hand.

"I'm sorry. I'm not usually like this and I knew about you and Char but seeing you in person... wow," Sam exhaled heavily. Her cheeks were progressively turning red. She hardly ever gets flushed but when she does, it usually embarrasses the hell out of her.

"It's cool. Don't worry," Justin smiled sweetly at her.

"Char, You do realize Jess and Teal are gonna freak the fuck out, right?" Sam switched her focus solely on me.

"Yeah, I'm holding out for the best," I scratched my arm as I imagined the range of fangirling that might occur when Jess and Teal lay their eyes on Justin for the first time.

"Should I brace myself?" Justin joked. But in reality, that's exactly what he should probably do.

"Uh, come on in," I stepped aside for Justin to enter properly. He stepped in before I shut the door again.
