My eyes widened in shock, I immediately closed my eyes.
"You can open it now, Princess." My eyes remain close as I replayed what I saw in my head.
Holy water.
"Melanie." opened my eyes to see a smirk on his face.
"I know from the first time you set your eyes on me, you been trying to get me naked. Like what you see?" He laughed, I still mortified, ran out of the room like a f*****g i***t, which I am.
I am an i***t.
I could hear Brooklyn call my name as I raced out of the house.
I got to my front door, that's when it hit me.
Melanie why the f**k did you run?.
He's probably laughing at my stupidity, I'm laughing at my stupidity.
"Did I see you come out of Bryce's house?" I was interrupted from my by Nate's voice.
Holy s**t!.
"f*****g hoe, I asked a question." He yells, moving closer to me, I moved back word.
"I ... I ..w..Nate... I" I moved back again.
"You are trying my patience." He brings his hands on my neck as he slams me on the wall, I could feel the tears threatening to spill.
"Nate please." I chocked.
"I told you to stay away." He roughly tightens his grip on my neck.
"Nate, you need to take your pills, please... Please...le..let me go and I would go get your pills." I chocked out.
"Don't tell me what to do bitch." He releases my neck only to slap me.
I fell on the floor coughing, I spotted my mum watching with a bottle of vodka.
"Stay away from him, or I'd do something you would regret" with that he leaves.
"Can't you just listen, I don't have enough makeup to hide bruises" my mum leaves too.
I just sat there crying.
~~~
I sat in my bedroom replying events of today inspite what happened with Bryce, I found my self laughing for the first time in a long time.
I'm so stupid.
Just then my phone buzzes, I turned to see a message.
I clicked it open only to realise it's from Bryce.
How did he get my number.
You are so rude, you've seen me naked, it's only right if its vice versa.
I don't know why I found my self smiling at his joke, my fingers itching to give a sarcastic reply but Nate came to my head. If he finds out we are exchanging messages I'll be dead meat.
I just kept on staring at thescreen, my heart skipped a beat when another message popped in.
You know you hurt my ego running away like that princess, lucky for you I know I'm hot.
Another laugh erupted from my lips, wanting to reply but instead I turned off my phone with a decision to go to sleep.
~~~
I'm sorry about yesterday, I missed a few pills but I'm back, please don't be mad." We are standing next to my locker.
Here we go again.
"It's okay Nate." I gave a fake smile.
"What's up guys." The crew gathers near my locker.
As always.
I looked around for Bryce but he's no where to be found
Thank goodness.
I tuned out what ever they are saying, all was on my mind was to avoid Bryce.
"I need to use the toilet." I announced.
"Okay, see you in class babe." Nate smiles. I headed towards the bathroom.
~~~
As I was about to enter the toilet, I saw Sophia coming out, I moved back so she could go out.
"Thanks." She mutters, as I gave my very first real smile, she walks out, I spotted something drop, I picked it.
O my ticket to Jon Bellion's Concert.
I remember those days we fan girl about meeting the musical legend himself.
"Hey, you dropped this." I handed the ticket to her.
"Thanks." She smiled.
"Lucky you." I smiled, she smiles back and then she leaves. We are so awkward with each other, I remember when we were inseparable.
I sighed and walked in, I flinched at my reflection before entering the stall.
~~~
I walked outside the toilet only to see Bryce at a corner, he hasn't seen me yet, he is talking to a girl.
I Thank God I can use this opportunity to bolt.
Yes, I am avoiding him. I saw him naked and I let him have a conversation with himself all through the night.
As I was about to walk away, I felt someone's arm wrapped around my shoulders.
Its Nate.
"What are you doing here?" I asked.
"I decided to walk you to class, come on let's go." I looked Bryce's direction but he's no longer there.
"Yeah, let's go." I gave a weak smile.
••••
Today have been frustrating, I did suceed in avoiding Bryce.
Nate won't leave my side,
I can't say I don't know why.
Loren is making me change my entire cheer choreography because its too hard for her.
don't know why is she even a cheerleader?
I'm still at school and its 8 pm already, everyone has gone and I can't still think of the perfect cheer choreography.
I walked down the empty hallway with my bag on my shoulders.
I stopped when I heard noise from the gym.
Go home Melanie.
I found myself at the entrance of the gym.
You never listen.
In horrormovies, I'm that child that's always curious, then eventually end up dead, either at the beginning or middle of the movie.
My kind of person won't make it to the end.
I heard bouncing of balls, I walked closer only to see...
Bryce.
So much for avoiding him. He stops bouncing the ball and looks directly at me.
"So I finally get you alone." I gulped at his sexy voice and the mischievous smirk playing on his bad boy face.
Lord help me.
