I decided to go back home since I have nothing better to do.

Charlie looks happy with that new dog of his, must be his new dog or something. Well, it's obviously his dog.

Right when I entered the house, I saw someone on the floor crying on their knees, tears on the floor, sobs filling up the silence.

No one else could've entered this house except Melanie, so I assume the person crying is Melanie, but why?

I bend my knees to be on the same level as her, "What are you doing here crying?" I asked calmly, she lifts her head and grabbed my arm while sobbing harder.

"I don't know what to do with life anymore..." She shouted, sobbing between each word, "What happened?" I worriedly asked, instead of replying, she released my arm and wipe away her tears without saying anything.

I think it's better to let her calm down first, I entered her room to get something since I sleep here after Melanie left the house.

¡WARNING: IF YOU ARE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH OBSESSION, I don't recommend reading the following scenes!

My eyes widened and my jaw dropped right when I opened the door, I saw Charlie stolen shots all over the room, these photos weren't here when I left, how did Melanie get this many photos of him?

I went back outside to check on Melanie, it's freaking me out, she's not there. I just went in her room for a second and now she's gone?! That quick?

I looked around the area yet no signs of Melanie, I went back into her room to check the photos again.

I notice how the photos of Charlie with other people are scribbled on, Charlie isn't scribbled but the other people are. It's like Charlie is the only person she wants to be seen in the pictures.

I asked myself "What's wrong with her?", these photos aren't making me comfortable, is this what you call an obsession? I didn't expect Melanie to be obsessed.

Is this something I should normalize? Should I talk about this to someone? I have no idea what to do, like always. I look at the pictures closely and some of the pictures taken by Melanie are pictures of Charlie sleeping and other personal events, this is absolutely wrong.

How do I deal with this? Call the police? Tell to Charlie? Talk about it with Melanie to clear things out? I can't think of anything. But I have to do something about this.

I took out my phone and was about to text Charlie. Someone that is behind me took my phone away, I faced them and saw Melanie. She had a wicked and threatening smirk on her face, what is happening to her?!

"Texting your love huh? HAHAHAHAHAHA" Melanie psychotically laughs, I give her a confused look and she scoffed as she reads the messages.

I tried grabbing my phone back but instead, it fell out of her hand and it fell on the floor, it left a huge crack on my phone but gladly it's still able to work.

My phone starts to ring, which startled me and Melanie. We both look at the caller ID in unison, we looked at each other then faced the phone. The person who was calling is Charlie, it made Melanie cheekily smirk and she rushed to get my phone.

I fasten my pace to grab my phone before she does, I was able to get it but Melanie immediately grabbed it as well, she had more force than I do, which made me drop my phone again.

We both started to fight over my phone, the ringing of my phone kept on going and we try getting my phone away from each other.

All of a sudden, one of us may have clicked the accept button...

"Yo Danielly! What happened? It took you a while to answer..." Said Charlie, both of our eyes shot wide open. We looked at each other without giving Charlie a response, "Hello? Danielly?" Said Charlie.

Melanie decided to speak and said "Charlie! Danielly isn't here" I say something that cut Melanie's sentence off, "That isn't true, I'm right here-", "NO, SHE ISN'T. SHE WENT SOMEWHERE-" Melanie said louder than me, "You both are going nuts..." Charlie said before canceling the call.

I sighed in relief but Melanie screamed in anger, "YOU IDIOT! I COULD'VE TALKED TO HIM!" Melanie furiously yelled at me, "Me? Excuse me?! You literally have his number in your phone!" I replied, Melanie screamed in anger and stomped her way out.

Something is really wrong with her...

I looked around for my phone yet but isn't there, SHE HAS IT?! I hurriedly run outside to find her but she is nowhere to be found.

How am I supposed to...

I sighed and went back inside the house, what is happening?! Everything is just going non-sense. How am I going to contact Charlie? Wait, why would I contact him? We're supposed to keep our distance cause of that dumb rumor.

I ruffled my hair in frustration, I went to Melanie's room and check the photos once more. Should I remove these?

_-_-_-_-Melanie's POV-_-_-_-_

UGH! Freaking Danielly always ruins everything! I looked at the phone in my hand and noticed that it is open, I didn't hesitate to look through her phone.

The first thing I did was check her messages with Charlie, should I text him as if I'm Danielly? A smile appeared on my face and I started to text him.

_-_-_-_-♡-_-_-_-_

Danielly
Hey Charles, sorry about Mel...

Charlie
I thought she left the house?

Danielly
She did but she came back

Charlie
Well, that sucks...

_-_-_-_-♡-_-_-_-_

SUCKS?! He hates me? Seriously?! Whatever, I'll just keep the conversation going...

A few hours later...

I'm here laying on my bed as I'm still texting Charlie, my feelings for him has grown too much. And I can't seem to hide it nor leave it, it never bothered me.

Butterflies in my stomach fly around every time I get a reply from Charlie, I'm glad I'm having a conversation with him, it's like we've known each other like we're more than friends, were we ever friends in the first place though?

My heart would skip a beat every time I think of him, I would do anything for that man.

I'm annoyed by the fact Danielly still didn't accept the fact she likes Charles, but more for me, right? I will make him like and love me no matter what, he may like Danielly but I'll take this opportunity to make them avoid being together.

That fake news everyone's talking about seems so believable, everyone believes it. It worked, all that fakery work! My plan always works...
