Fallen Between Book Two - Melodie's Whispers

Dance For Me

Melodie lays back in the bath, her eyes closed. The room silent for a short while before she hears shouting, her head shaking as she climbs out of the bath. Wrapping the towel around herself, she walks downstairs. Melodie's head shakes, seeing Jax and Roland arguing.

"Really? You're going to wake up, Lucas. Then I will beat both your arses. What is the issue now?" She looks between them, confused. Oscar just sat back, shaking his head.

"I made a joke. He took it as truth and hit me. Relax, Jax, maybe you need to get someone else in here to watch her?" Roland looks at Jax, waiting.

"Why did you hit him? What joke?" Melodie glances between them, her head shaking as she looks at Jax, shocked. "Did he honestly make out something happened between us? You believed him?" She stands staring at him, waiting.

"No, I didn't believe you would. He made a snide comment about that wasn't the only time he saw you with your top open." Jax shakes his head.

"He deserved it. It was a joke, he says, yet he made out you were giving him a striptease. So yes, he deserved it purely for making out you had. Jax go get some sleep as you clearly need it. Roland go out, just make sure your back by 5." Oscar glances between them, Melodie watches as they walk off, she looks at Oscar confused.

"If I said it Melodie he would have laughed it off. It's Roland, everyone knows he does not care if the woman is married. Everyone knows he will keep trying because a woman who says no to him is a challenge. He means no harm, he wouldn't do anything without anyone agreeing. Jax just doesn't like him using you as the joke." Melodie nods getting ready to walk to bed she stops, smiling she turns to Oscar.

"You know my ladies night?" 

He glances at her nodding. 

"Well, my dancers cancelled, so I asked Jax and he agreed that the team would stand-in for me." She smiles at him waiting.

Oscar looking at her like she is crazy. "Erm, you want me to dance?" He laughs slightly looking at her.

"Yes, while stripping. Totally naked. Jax said yes, Diogo will, you know Roland will as well, please?" She smiles at him waiting.

Oscar rolling his eyes. "Fine, if Jax agreed then fine. You owe me though Melodie, big time." He laughs shaking her head.

"You got last night, see that as payment." She smiles at him, his eyes widening. "Night." Laughing she walks off, Oscar stood watching her walk away, his head shaking in disbelief at her. Melodie climbs in bed, Jax glancing down at her as she smiles.

"What did you do now?" Laughing she shakes her head slightly.

"Nothing, just making sure Oscar can dance. Which reminds me, did you ask Diogo and Roland?" She smiles at him waiting, watching as he nods.

"Sure did, messaged them both and they agreed. So we shall be dancing for you. Now sleep, lazy day tomorrow, I am not leaving as no plans, you don't have work, so lazy day." Melodie nods smiling. Not a lazy day, they need to learn to dance, even just slightly and she will help them. She finds herself falling asleep quickly.

Jax wakes up, Melodie still asleep next to him, climbing out of bed he gets Lucas up and takes him downstairs. Putting him in his chair he begins making food. Oscar walking down not long after with Roland, sitting no one talks as Jax cooks. 

Glancing at Oscar he hands him the phone. "You know them, should you ring or her?" Someone needs to call and tell them where their guy can be found and make it known she won't be taken down so easily.

"Her, if they know she took him down, that will piss them off." Jax nods slightly but confused.

"Why wouldn't he just shoot her? Why wouldn't they just get someone to shoot her? Surely that is easier?" He would just walk in, shoot the person and end it.
