A/N: here's my justin foley fanfiction, i hope you'll like it!
CHAPTER ONE: "When dark meets the light"
It was a sunny day in Evergreen. Liberty High students started a new school year. Among them is Justin Foley, whose life has slowly taken to be colorful since Clay's parents adopted him. You might think that everything will be fine now. You are wrong. Justin Foley is still surrounded by darkness. The darkness was so great that it slowly covered his heart, and Justin every day stopped knowing what love is and how to love another person.ย
What is love? Something that should makes our heart happy, and Justin had a different opinion. He thought that no one would be able to love him, that no one would be able to accept that he is a fucking junkie. His life revolved only around heroin. He promised to Jensen's family that he would change. He didn't want to let them down. He talked to Clay and Zach in the school corridor, leaning against his locker. He looked happy, but it was just a mask he put on, so that nobody would see his suffering. Justin was absorbed in listening to what Zach did during the summer. He paid no attention to anything except Zach's story.
And then she appeared. She crossed the threshold of the building, and a delicate draft caused by the open door blew her hair. Dressed in a simple floral dress, she walked down the school corridor. A thought in head prompted Justin to look that way. He saw her. He saw her graceful movements, and his heart began to beat as if it was about to jump out of his chest. Zach laughed at his friend's reaction to the mysterious girl. Clay sighed, instructing him not to get into relationships so easily this time because he had to focus on himself.
What did Justin Foley do? He didn't care at all about his brother's words and approached the girl, picking up her things from the floor when she bumped into one of the high school students. He waited until she looked at him. He waited until she noticed that he is interested in her. It happened. She looked at him. Justin couldn't look away from her. Up close, she was even more beautiful. She looked like like a goddess. "Mysterious girl, I want to know your name. I want to know every bit of you" he thought as the girl smiled at him.
"You must be a little more prudent. Otherwise, everyone will be lying down at the corridor." He laughed a little, hoping that it will also improve her mood a little bit. "I'm Justin. Justin Foley, and you? You must be new here, right?"
The new girl seemed to be apparently interested in Justin. She stared at him for a long moment.
"I'm Stella Mitchell, nice to meet you. Yes, I moved to Evergreen a few days ago" she told her new friend.
Justin Foley smiled slightly.
"In case you need help or something..." he scratched his neck. - "I'm here."
Clay suddenly interrupted them.
"Man, are you going to pick up some defenseless girl? You barely finish last class, so you have to focus on studying." he said and slightly pushing Justin away from Stella, that they could go to class.
"SEE YOU LATER, STELLA MITCHELL" Justin screamed to Stella and waved lightly at her.
As it turned around later, Justin and Stella were in one group at all lessons, which makes our footballer happy.ย He devoted his attention only to her, only she mattered to him. He stared at her and focused on her every move. He stared as she touched her beautiful and long brown hair. He stared while she was focused on listening to the teacher and he stared as she reading a note from the book. He was fascinated in her, Clay and Zach were surprised that Justin Foley focused on one person for the first time. Why for the first time? You know Justin, and you know perfectly well that he usually preferred one-night stands.ย He did this because he never knew what love was. He didn't fell it because of his parents, who didn't show him what real love is.ย I will not call Justin emotionless, because he's not. I will simply call him a man who doesn't know how to love.ย
Now you probably think it will the same with Stella. Well now, you're wrong again. Clay perfectly noticed the light in Justin's eyes and his fascination. Clay knew that Stella could be the one who would change Justin's life.
But Justin didn't know yet what Stella is hiding, he didn't know that her heart was in disarray. And how I know it? She lived next to me with her parents and sometimes I have opportunity to hear their conversations in the garden. I also heard the painful one.ย
They talked about someone like Katie, and as it turned out later, she was Stella's little sister. She died in a car accident when she returned from a ballet school with her best friend and her parents. They also died. A terribly painful tragedy.ย
However, if we looked at it more closely, we could see that Stella and Justin have one thing in common. Ache. Terrible ache that hurts their hearts. Justin lost his biological mother, and Stella lost her sister.
Now let's get back to Justin. Let's focus on how devoted he becomes to Stella. Will he become addicted to her as much as he is addicted to heroin? He doesn't even focus on the lesson, his heart goes crazy and his body shudders. He doesn't even focus on what's going on about him.ย Can we call him romantic with a broken heart? Romantic with hidden pain? Of course we can, so from now on Justin Foley will be called a suffering romantic.ย
I think that is enough of story for now. You'll find out the rest soon.
