Chapter 8Hi, this is Justin, sorry I missed your call, but leave me a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks!“Justin, please call me back. I-I-I have to go to the E.R., my arm is broken I think….Emily, oh my God, Justin, she’s dead.” Danika said, not even realizing that Justin would have no clue who Emily is. “I have to talk to you, please call me back.” She said, before hanging up. Justin felt the buzz of a voicemail and looked over at Sarah, who was looking at him. “Justin, you can get it if you need to. Who is it? Danika?”Justin pulled his phone out yet again and saw he did infact have a new voicemail from her.Without ever answering Sarah, he put his phone up to his ear and listened to her message. She sounded frantic. “Oh no,” Justin said, his heart sinking. He continued to listen, “Oh my God…who’s Emily? What the-“Sarah looked worried and although she was talking to Justin, he wasn’t even hearing her.“Dani…oh no…”“Justin, what?” Sarah kept asking.Justin frantically went back and fourth between dialing Danika and watching the road. Danika was walking into the ER but turned back out when she heard her phone ringing. Please be Justin, she thought.She walked towards a bench just outside the sliding automatic doors of the ER and looked at her phone.“Justin,” She answered it after seeing it was him. “Thank God you called me back.”“Where are you?”“I’m at the ER…my arm…it’s broken I think.” She said.“I’m gonna be there…” Justin said, then looking at Sarah with a look of dismay. He put his hand over the speaker of his phone and pulled his cellphone away from his mouth. “Shut up ok? I’m trying to figure out what the FUCK is going on.”Danika could hear Justin’s voice, but it was muffled and she couldn’t make out what exactly he was saying but she did hear the word ‘fuck’.“Justin, who is that?”“Sorry, Dani, you there?”“Yeah, who is with you?”“Sarah.”“Oh.”“I’m gonna drop her off at her place then I’ll be there. Ok?”“Yeah.” Danika replied. In her head all she could think about was what that bitch had been doing with her man for all this time.“Danika, who’s Emily? You said some Emily girl is dead?”Danika choked back her tears.“She’s was my daughter, J.”Justin got chills at her words. Now the car seemed to be spinning and he got a little queezy.“What?”“She was my daughter, Justin…” Danika said, no longer able to fight back her sobs.“Your daughter? Woah, woah, WOAH! Hold the fucking PHONE! You have a daughter? Err, had? Someone killed her?”“Josh, he killed her.”“Josh?! Who the fuck is Josh?”Sarah sat listening to all this and was just as shocked as Justin was, and she couldn’t even hear the entire conversation.“Justin, I’m so sorry baby. I wanted to tell you, really.”“Tell me? You wanted to tell me huh? Wow.” He was stunned and silent. “I’ll be there in a minute. I’m almost at Sarah’s.”With that he hung up and after a moment of staring blankly ahead in complete silence, Justin looked over at Sarah.“Wow.”“Are you ok?” Sarah asked, her voice sounding mouse-like.“I’m alright, yeah. Danika…” He didn't even know where to begin because he didn't fully understand anything himself. “I don't know, something about someone is dead and she…” He hesitated for a moment. “She’s fucked up. I gotta drop you off, I’m sorry sweetheart. I’ll come back tonight though.”“Whatever.” Sarah pouted, even crossing her arms like a 2 year old.“Sarah,” Justin sighed. “Don’t do this now. I don't-I can’t handle any more drama right now. Can you just…listen-“ Justin gently pulled at her chin, forcing her to look at him. “I love you.”He pulled up at Sarah’s place just as he had said that. “Can I get a kiss?” Justin sweetly asked. “No.” Sarah denied him. “I’ll see you, Justin.”She pushed her door open and was about to get out when Justin tugged on her arm, again making her look at him. The dome light glowed on their faces and Justin’s eyes twinkled.“It’s over with me and Danika, Sarah. Why don't you believe me?”“Justin, c’mon. She’s pregnant with your child. It’s never gonna be over. Ever. Don’t you get it?”Justin looked angry and interrupted her with a finger in the air, as if to ask a question.“How did you know Dani is pregnant?”Sarah rolled her eyes.“Oh God, Justin-““Who told you?”“Johnny told me.”She could tell Johnny was about to get a phone call, and she tried to downplay it.“Justin, he was worried about you, you were in JAIL for God’s Sake…what did you want him to do? We all care and were worried.”“My own Mom didn’t believe that I didn’t do it maliciously…you know, pushing her.”Sarah hadn’t heard this and looked surprised.“When did you talk to Lynn? In jail?” She asked as Justin nodded.“Oh my God. Have you talked to her since?”“No. I don't know what to say. She’s my best friend and she didn't stand by me.” Justin bit his lip and stared at the steering wheel.“I’m sorry, J.” Sarah said softly, reaching over and gently rubbing the back of his neck. Justin closed his eyes as she did this.“Ugh, that feels good, hon.” Justin said, a small smile curving the side of his lips.They were quiet for a moment and then Justin looked at her and she knew he had to go.“I’m sorry for snapping on you, baby.” Sarah apologized.“Don’t worry your little pretty face over it. I forgive you,” He said, pulling her face to his and sweetly kissing her lips. They kissed for a few more moments. “Ok hon, I’ll be home later.”Sarah got out of the car and before she closed the door she smiled and said she couldn’t wait to see him.“I hope she’s alright,” She added, referring to Danika. “Bye babe.” *~ Justin pulled up to the ER and unfortunately there were paparazzi lurking everywhere. “God damn it,” Justin said under his breath. “Fuck me.”He parked his car and walked towards the doors. The closer he got the more the flash bulbs started to pop, and he dreaded the idea of his face being all over the tabloids, walking into the ER, none the less. How did they know he was going to be there? He wondered and he found himself being swarmed by them. “Don’t you losers have anything better to do? I’m sure Brittney’s’ wondering where her film crew went. All you do is follow her around and eat off her disgusting attempts at flashing her shit all over the place.”Shouldn’t have said that, he thought after it was too late anyways.“Justin, who are you going to see?”“Fuck off asshole. Get a fucking life.” He hissed.With that he disappeared into the hospital and the paparazzi were walking off, all of them reviewing their shots and laughing with one another about Justin’s remarks.“That’s quotable, huh?” One of them said.“That’ll be on Perez in about 5 seconds,” Another one chimed in, referring to very popular celebrity blogger Perez Hilton’s web site. Inside the ER, Justin was immediately escorted off to the room where they were treating Danika. The curtain pulled back and they locked eyes with eachother. Justin smiled and went to hug her but saw that her arm was being treated for a nasty break, which was more evident by the illuminated x-rays that were hanging up on the wall to the left.“Baby, oh man. Look at that. Who did that to you? That Jake guy?”“Josh,” Danika unenthusiastically corrected. “Yes, Josh did it.”Justin pulled at chair over to her. She smelled good, like vanilla wafers.“Baby, what is going on? You’ve gotta tell me. I wanna help you. I think.”Danika took a deep breath.“I’m married, Justin.”At those words, Justin felt like he had just been punched in the stomach. It was hearing her say this that made him aware of just how much he loved her. She continued on,“His name is Josh. He set up this plan to swindle money from you,”Again he felt like he was being repeatedly sucker punched and his eyes looked around for a garbage can, because he thought he might puke.“Justin, I didn’t really want to be a part of it, but I did because I didn't even know you. I thought you were just some lame celebrity but your not, you’re a great man and I fell inlove with you,” She said softly, “I love you.”Justin stood up and put a fist to his mouth and bit down on it as if to quiet himself from saying anything.Danika covered his face in her hands and cried.“What else? Anything else? Who’s Emily?”Danika cried and cried until Justin couldn’t take it anymore.“Quit crying and tell me who the fuck Emily is?”“She’s my daughter, Justin. She was my daughter.”“Wow. Unbelievable.”“I’m SO SORRY JUSTIN!” She cried, but was interrupted by the doctor stepping into the room.“Excuse me.” He said.“No its quite alright.”Truth was, Justin needed a moment to process the very little that she had told him so far. He stood and excused himself from the room.“Justin!”He stopped and looked back at her.“I’ll be right in the hall hon.”The doctor was getting ready to put her arm in a cast, and was patiently waiting for the two of them to finish up.“Right in the hall.” He reiterated, pointing over his shoulder before stepping out of her view. He closed the heavy wooden door behind him and slid with his back against the wall till his butt hit the cool tiled floor. A nurse approached him and touched his hand. The chill from her hand touching his scared him he jerked his head up so fast he smacked it against the brick wall behind him.“Oww!”The nurse gasped and knelt to his level, putting a hand on his shoulder.“I’m so sorry. Are you ok?” She asked. Justin opened his eyes and looked at her. She was a fair skinned blonde with pale pink lips and searing green eyes. He looked at her name tag, which read “Jordyn”.“I’m alright, Jordyn.” He replied with a soft smile, his hand still rubbing the back of his head.“I didn’t mean to frighten you. I just wanted to make sure your ok.”“I’m alright, thanks.”There was a small silence.“You’re the singer, right?”Justin smiled.“I totally won’t bother you, or tell anyone. I didn’t even know it was you until just 2 seconds ago when you looked up at me.”Justin was still quiet, and still smiling.“I love your music. I mean, I’m not a stalker or anything weird like that.”“It’s alright, don’t worry. It’s cool, really.”“Are you here with family?” She asked, then wishing she hadn’t. “I’m sorry, I don't mean to pry.” She retracted before he could answer.“It’s alright. Yeah, I’m here with family.”“Oh.”She thought it best not to ask any more questions.Just then the doctor came opened Danika’s door and stepped out, looking down and seeing Jordyn. She tried to stand up and look like she hadn’t been socializing with Justin, but it was too late.“Doctor,” She said with a smile.“Jordyn, keeping Mr. Timberlake here company?”“She was.” Justin replied for her, causing her to close her mouth, which was open and ready to reply.“You shouldn’t be bothering the patients.”“She wasn’t.” Justin insisted, talking over her. “She’s fine. It was nice to meet you,” Justin said to her, standing up and dusting his hands off before shaking her hand and then the doctors.“Your girlfriend, she’s got a broken arm but she’ll be ok.” The doctor said with the handshake. Jordyn felt stupid for standing there listening, and then heard the doctor say “girlfriend”. Damn, she thought. “I hate to interrupt, but I’m gonna go. Take care, sir.” Jordyn said politely with a smile. “You too, sweetie.” Justin said warmly. Oh. My. God. He just called me sweetie. Jordan thought in her head as she smiled and walked away.
