I entered his room.
A dirty and very untidy room, might I add.
Balls all over the place, basket ball nets, sports posters, dirty clothes on the ground.
"Someone is very neat." I sarcastically said.
"Ha ha ha." He gave the fake laugh as picked up a ball and sat on his bed.
"You know, Your mum was expecting a reply." Talking about what happened down stairs.
"Do you know, I can see your nipples." He smirks as he shoots the ball into the net.
I immediately wrapped my arms round my boobs.
"Douche." I whispered.
The door opens revealing Brooklyn.
"Towel for you." She hands me a towel.
I wrapped the towel over my shoulders hurriedly, mumbling a thank you.
"She isn't the only one that was under the rain." Bryce whined.
"Well, I don't care about you." She replied.
"Not true." He argued.
Wish I had a sibling, then again wouldn't want anyone to suffer with me.
But I can't help but imagine a life with one.
"And I got you his hoodie and sweatpants." She drops it on his bed.
"Wow, she even takes my clothes." He whined further.
"Thanks so much." I smiled, just then heard Bryce scoff.
"I'm gonna make you coffee, after changing maybe we can watch a movie?" She offered.
Melanie, you should go home.
It's not like my mum would care if I'm home or not, she won't even notice when she's busy with her recent catch.
"Sure." I smiled as she left .
You are gonna get in so much trouble.
If Nate finds out I stepped into Bryce's house, I'll be I'm big s**t.
I walked to the other side of the room, I flinched when I caught a glace of my reflection in the mirror.
Ugly.
Always ugly.
I turned to Bryce who's pulling off his wet shirt.
"Hey, clothes on." I panicked.
Gosh I'm so stupid.
"Why, can't take the hotness." He ignored my request and took his shirt off.
He's hot, like stupid hot.
Melanie what's wrong with you?
I mentally scolded myself.
"Oh please." That was the only reply I could think off, I know lame.
"You know you are rude?" He smirked, resting on the wall.
"Excuse me?" I muttered, straightening the clothes given to me by Brooklyn, which I picked up from the bed.
"I take off my shirt giving you a show, you might as well do the same." Did I say he was hot earlier? Well I take that back, he's a jerk.
Huge jerk.
"In your dreams."I rolled my eyes, walking towards the bathroom.
"Trust me babe, you don't want to know about my dreams." He winked, I shook my head walking into the bathroom, locking it behind me because I don't trust him for a second.

"Wow someone looks hot in my shirt and sweatpants." Bryce called out.
I don't know I felt awkward with his eyes on me, thankfully his sister came in.
"I have the perfect movie for us to watch." She walks in with a huge smile on her face.
"Ew, put on a shirt." She rolled her eyed at her brother, I smiled at how cute they are.
"Intimated by this beauty." He dramatically points to his abs.
I let out a laugh.
True laughter as eluded me this past few years, it feels good to let out one but also scary knowing it won't last long.
"More like disgusted." She retorted. Another laugh escape my lips.
"Come on Mel, let's go before we get blind."I nodded, as we both leave the arrogant one in his room.
"I know I'm hot." He called out as we walked away.
~~~~~
I woke up only to realize that I'm still at Bryce's house, must have fallen asleep when I was watching the movie with Bryce and Brooklyn.
Shit Melanie, you are in so much trouble.
I stood up hurriedly, I need to get out of here. I walked over to get my bag but I was stopped by a voice.
"Where are you going?" I heard Bryce voice.
"Home." I said as I picked up my bag, getting ready to leave but I felt someone's presence near me.
"What are you doing?" I asked him.
"Following you, Its dark out." He picked up his leather jacket.
"My house is just three blocks away, I will be fine." I replied hoping he would back down.
"I insist."
"Fine."
••••
"Look at my house now. You can go back." I rolled my eyes.
"Fine, princess." He winked before leaving.
Did he just call me a princess.
I walked into my house only to find my mum making out with a much older man.
Gross.
Didn't bother to say anything, I walked words the stairs.
"Come back here." I turned to her.
What now?
"Where have you been, Nate called and he is not so happy that you are not home."
Nate this, Nate that, why don't she date him, its not like she can't do it.
"Whatever." I walked towards my room, I opened the door of my room and I was welcomed with darkness.
Much better.
••••
"I'm sorry for getting mad yesterday, you caused it, I warned you to stay away from the new boy." Nate gives a puppy dog face as he fastens seat belt.
Wow, what an apology.
"Its okay." I can hardly find my voice.
"I tried calling you yesterday but your phone was switched off."
"My phone was dead." I looked at the window as he starts the car.
"Where were you yesterday?" He continues.
"I went to the mall." The lie coming out smoothly.
"Okay " He finally shuts up.
••••
"Well, I got to get to class." Loren announces
Who cares.
The boys joined her leaving me and Nate alone.
I opened my locker trying to avoid talking to Nate.
"Hey." I know that voice, I turned to see Bryce.
Oh oh...
"You forgot your clothes yesterday." He says as he hands me a bag before leaving. I turned to see the angry expression on Nate's face.
••••
"So what now? you are whoring around" Nate yells, we are in the janitors closet.
"I got socked my the rain and I.." I stopped explaining when I felt a stinging pain on my cheeks.
He slapped me.
"Shut up bitch." He roared. My eyes became watery as tears flowed.
"So you can't have s*x with me but you can with other boys?" Veins popping out his head.
"Its not like that, I..." With my reply I received another slap.
" I'm done waiting, I'm going to take you right here and now." He slams my body on his.
This can't be happening to me.
I closed my eyes, I opened my eyes when I heard the door open, the door revealed Bryce.
