"She's been in there for hours. She won't let me in and she won't come out," Tracy said, pointing at the door.
"Who?" Joey asked, confused.
"Alaina!" Tracy yelled as if he should have known. "She's been crying for hours and I don't know why exactly," she said. "I feel so helpless. I wish I could help her," Tracy said, sobbing into Joey's chest. Joey brushed her hair lightly.

"If I had castles built on high
I'd find a million ways
to write your name
Against the sky
Just to let you know,
you've caught my eye
And if I had more than
wealth could buy
I'd sell it all and start again
just for a chance with you
Girl, I'd give my all to win your love
And I would be rich
And I would build all
my world around you
Just to show you
How to take my breath away
And you would find love, sweet lady
Nobody else this side of heaven knows
How you take my breath away
If I could turn the day to night
If I had faith to walk on water
Maybe you would see,
the reason I thank God for miracles
Cause baby when you walk into sight
You turned an ordinary man like me into a king
I would do anything to win your love
I think there's something
here worth sayin'
I don't want to scare you
So let me make my wish
and hope that you believe
In simple love, like I do
Say that it's true, baby
Cause you've got me shakin'
My breath has no been taken
I've got to overcome this achin
To win your love."
Justin stared aimlessly at his hotel room wall, his eyes were red from the straining he had put them through. He thought about what happened between him and Alaina and if there was something more he could have said. 'I should'nt have let her go.' he told himself over and over. Everytime he would look away from the wall he would see her. His eyes played tricks on him that tore his heart up. 'Why couldn't she see just how much I love her? Does she not believe me?' he asked himself. 'If she needs proof, I'll give her proof.' he thought to himself, getting up and walking out of the room.
*****************
Justin walked towards Alaina's room and found Joey and Tracy sitting outside. "Where is she?" he asked. Tracy pointed to the door and Justin knocked. No one answered. "Laine, please open this door," Justin pleaded. No one answered. When all seemed hopeless, Alaina opened the door a crack and let Jusitn in.
Justin walked over to her visibly shaken body. "Justin please, I thought we went through this," she pleaded with him.
"Please, just let me talk," Justin said. "I don't know what to say anymore. I don't care that you're just a high school student. That doesn't change anything. Everyone else doesn't seem to mind. The truth is," Justin trailed off before speaking again. "I think I love you. There, I said it. I love you," Justin said, looking at her.
Alaina broke down into tears at hearing his words. She didn't care if he saw her crying. "Justin, please leave," she said in between sobs.
"I'm not leaving. Tell me you don't love me and I'll go," he said, placing his hands on her face.
Alaina stared into his eyes. Her heart ached at the thought of what she was about to do. "I don't love you," she whispered. Justin dropped his hands from her face. "It's for the best," Alaina whispered.
Justin leaned in and kissed her passionately. They broke apart slowly and stared at each other for a few moments. "Then why does it hurt so bad?" Justin said while leaning down and placing his lips against her forehead.
