If I Was Your Boyfriend

twenty-three.

I was greeted the next morning by Rocky licking my face. 'Good morning to you too.' I laughed sitting up stroking his belly. I paused for a minute to check my phone for any messages.

I miss you already. - Justin.
And I think you fell asleep on me. - Justin.
And now I know you feel asleep on me. - Justin.
Goodnight baby. :* - Justin.

I smiled unlocking my phone to reply.

Sooo sorry! I didn't know I was so tired... :* i miss you too. - Chrissy.

I showered and got ready for the day, 'so I'm guessing this is the dog you adopted?' my mom stood in the doorway patting Rocky's head.

'That's Rocky.' I nodded, 'how cute is he?'

'He's cute now, go take him outside. I'm sure he has to go.' she replied going into her room. I attached the leash to Rocky's collar and led him down the stairs.

'C'mon boy.' I opened the door following him out. There were a group people holding cameras pointing at my house. 'I'm not Justin.' I muttered to Rocky who was prancing towards the gate. I unlocked it and began our walk. I noticed them take pictures of me as I turned the corner going around the block. Rocky trotted to the corner and lifted his leg into the air. 15 minutes later we went back to the house where my phone was just lighting up.

You can make it up to me with our very first skype date? 10 tonight? (: - Justin.
10 tonight it is (: - Chrissy.
How's Rocky? - Justin.
Great (: he woke me up with kisses this morning :p - Chrissy.
Hey you're mine - Justin.
And you're mine <3 - Chrissy.
<3 - Justin.

we talked for a while longer until he had to go to a radio appearance. I poured some dog food into Rocky's dish and found myself some breakfast. 'Hey Chrissy.' Jeff and my mom came down stairs.

'Hey.' I responded.

'Did you see those camera men outside?' my mom inquired sitting down at the table.

'Yeah, when we went for a walk. They'll go away eventually when they realize just how boring I am.' I laughed continuing to eat.

'Any plans for the day?'

'A skype date with Justin tonight.' I replied, 'why?'

'No reason. We're going out for a while.' she paused.

'Mom, just because Justin is gone doesn't mean I'll be locked in my room until he comes back. I was actually taking Rocky to the studio so he could watch me practice for the audition.'

'Oh.' she sounded more pleased, 'have fun then.'

'You too.' Jeff and my mom left and then I heard the engine start in the driveway. After I finished my breakfast, I loaded Rocky and my bag into the backseat of the car. 'Sit and stay.' I pointed at Rocky, who had already laid down in the back seat as I locked the front door. As I was backing out of the driveway I saw the paparrazzi had left, and hopefully wouldn't be back. I waited until I was at a red light to read my e-mail which had chimed a few minutes ago.

Step Up: Auditions
Time: 1:25 p.m.
Location: 326 Trinity Avenue Studio B, Los Angeles, California
Date: Three weeks from yesterday.
Looking forward to see you all!

I smiled dropping my phone back into my purse. Honk. I looked up realizing it was a green light, 'oops.' I giggled glancing back at Rocky who was alarmed by the noise. I turned into the parking lot of the dance studio and went inside. I laid a pillow on the ground so Rocky wouldn't have to settled for the hard wood flooring.

'I haven't seen you in a while!' my old friend, Camille beamed, 'how have you been stranger?'

'I've been great!'

'Who's this little fella?'

'That's Rocky.' I gestured, 'he's a little tired.'

'I can tell.' she replied, 'so what brings you by?'

'Practicing. The director of Step Up actually called me, so I need something that will knock his socks off.'

'If anyone could do that, it's you Chrissy.'

'I bet there's going to be some serious competition.' I shrugged, 'people who live, breathe, sleep, and eat dance. I haven't danced in over a month.'

'Because you've been with your boyfriend.' she teased.

'Shut up.' I laughed lacing up my shoes, 'are you going to help me?'

'Of course.' she agreed standing up.

'Awesome.' I joined her. I fell onto the floor after two hours of practicing.

'You are so out of shape.' Camille tossed a water bottle down to me.

'Ha-ha.' I took several gulps of water.

'I think you could be on to something here. Just a few more adjustments and this would kill.'

'I don't know. It may need more than just a few.'

'Just a few. Too many could mess it up.' she sat beside me, 'Chrissy, I am really proud of you. Not to sound too mushy.'

'Thanks.' I rolled over.

'I think that's enough for the day.'

'I agree. Same time tomorrow?'

'Sure.' I gathered my bag and the pillow then left with Rocky.

'Dancing sure makes me hungry.' I opened the door letting him leap inside. I went to Carl's Jr. then waited in the drive-thru line. A group of girls came out the side door walking across my car. Selena and I eyes met briefly. Why must it be such a small world. She eyed me before following her friends. I ordered my food and then drove away. I laid in the bed wearing one of Justin's t-shirts and sweats after a long shower. Occasionally, I would toss Rocky a curly fry while eating. Soon enough was 7:00 and I'm sure Justin was getting ready for his show tonight.

Good luck out there tonight (: - Chrissy.
Thanks (: - Justin.

'Chris! Taco Bell!' my mom came into the house. I went into the kitchen sitting down at the table.

'Have fun?'

'Yes.' she nodded her head setting all the contents of the bag on the table.

'You like Jeff a lot?'

'I do, actually. He makes me happy.'

'Well then I like him too.' we ate on the sofa watching a movie. 'I better take Rocky out.' I let him out into the backyard and watched as he trotted behind the tree. I hurried back into my room and sat on the bed signing onto my skype account. About ten minutes after ten I was getting a request from Justin.

'Hey.' his face flashed onto the screen.

'Hey.' I smiled happily.

'Sorry my computer was messing up for a minute there but it's good now.'

'What are you eating?' I wondered as he unwrapped a bag.

'McDonalds.' he laughed a little holding up his chicken nuggets. 'Is that my shirt?'

'Yes.' I admitted. Justin nodded through a grin.

'You look beautiful.'

'Thank you. You're missing your shirt.' I pointed. Justin looked down at his bare chest laughing.

'It was hot.' Rocky sat on my lap, 'hey boy.' Justin smiled. 'Can't wait to see you two.'

'Oh! I was practicing for audition today. I think it's coming together. My friend Camille said a few adjustments here and there and I'll be good to go.'

'I can't wait to see it babe.' we talked for an hour more. 'We'll talk tomorrow okay?'

'Okay.'

'Goodnight Chrissy.'

'Goodnight Justin.' I waved blowing him a kiss. He smiled once more pretending to catch it and place it on his lips before I closed my computer. I set the computer on my nightstand and got under the sheets with Rocky. 'Goodnight.' I stated as he curled in front of me. I laid there listening to his soft snores before going to bed myself.
