Rebel Love

Chapter 9

Melissa's POV
I didn't know where I was going to go... Just wherever my heart would make me go.. Andy had called me and texted me several times, I ignored him.
I stopped crying. I felt an empty pain in my heart... What Andy had said was replaying in my mind over and over... I told him when we first got together, to never talk about it, or bring it up... I know we were both heated but he crossed the lines.
I decided to go to CC's house.. I know I can always count on him.
As I reached his driveway I noticed he was home, thank god.
I got out and locked my car. I walked up to his front door and hesitated to knock.
I knocked and within a few short seconds he was there.

"Hey what's up?"
"I need to talk to you.."
"Come on in."
I walked in and sat on his couch, as did he.
"So what's up? Are you and Andy okay?"
"I don't even know. Ashley came over and he asked why I didn't like him, then I went off, then me and Andy started to fight, and then he uh... Said something that he knew he shouldn't have said.."
"What did he say? Did he call you something bad?"
"No... If it wasn't for Andy... I'd be homeless.. He brought up how my family disowned me..." I felt a lump in throat.. I knew I wanted to cry again.
"So you left and drove here?"
"Yeah, I was going to just drive wherever but I needed to talk to someone."
"Well I'm glad you're here." He smiled, reassuring me.
"I'm even starting to get annoyed with Ashley, he has been being a douchebag lately." He said.
"Yeah I know... Do you know why?"
"Uhh... Nope, not a clue."
"You're lying CC. Tell me."
"No, I really can't, Ashley will kill me."
"Then I'll kill Ashley."
"Ugh fine... But do not tell Andy this... Ashley told me, about two years ago, that he started to gain feelings for you, and now that you and Andy are engaged and you're possibly pregnant, he knows he will never have a chance with you."
I didn't say a word.. I was in too much shock. How could I have been so blind?
"So he likes me?"
"No.. He told me he loves you...And that was the night when we got pizza and shit."
"Oh that's wonderful..." I said.
"By the way, I'm not pregnant."
"Well that's good, I guess.."
"Yeah it is good, me and Andy aren't ready to be parents..."
"Who is?" He chuckled making me laugh a little.
"Would it be a bother if I stayed here?"
"Oh no not at all. There's a guest bedroom upstairs, food in the kitchen, help yourself." He informed me.
"Okay thank you, I'll be out of your hair tomorrow morning."
We both laughed a bit.
I started to feel a little better until I saw Andy was calling me. I decided to answer to tell him I was alright... Sort of.

A-Please come back home Melissa.
M- Why should I?
A- Because I love you and want to fix this.
M- Andy, I need time to think alright.. I'll be back tomorrow morning, I'm staying at a friends house.
A- Alright I love you..
M- Love you.
I didn't even allow him to say good bye before I hung up.
I was already crying. I really wanted to go home but I was still so angry.

"Melissa? Are you alright?" CC came into the living room and sat down on the couch right next to me.
"No CC I'm not alright... I'm petrified I might lose Andy... Or that we'll have more fights like this! I love him so much and it feels like I'm losing him... I don't want to lose him CC..." I dug my face into his shoulder leaving small dark spots from my tears.
"Melissa, you're not going to lose him. When you're not around, you're all he freaking talks about. You two just need to calm down, work this out, and really talk to Ashley about this. He is trying to manipulate Andy and you to break up Melissa."
I was in complete shock...
"What?"
"Yes. I hate that I just that it,but this is his little plan."
"Are you kidding me right now?"
"Nope. He told me himself."
"Jesus Christ! I have to go talk to Andy!" I quickly got up from the couch, said bye to CC and ran out to my car.

As I drove home, I was praying that Ashley wasn't there..

I pulled into the driveway and saw that Ashley's car was in the street...
Fuck!

"You fucking son of a bitch!!" I stormed towards Ashley with a fist waiting to meet his face.
I hit him with as much force as my body would allow, hitting him and making him almost lose his balance.

"Melissa! Calm down!" Andy tried to pull me off of him as I kept punching him.
"No! He's trying to break me and you up! He said he loves me!" I got up and kicked him before Andy picked me up and pulled me away from him.
"I hope your nose is fucking broken." I said.
"Melissa who told you this?" Andy said in a sad-ish tone.
"CC! I was there and he told me everything Andy. Ever since our first year he's had feelings for me! The night we all came over here and had pizza, he said he loved me! God damn it Andy! I don't want to lose you to some man whore!" I was crying at this point. I felt like I was having a panic attack.. My chest started to hurt and I started to shake.
"Melissa... Please calm down... Im not going to leave you alright? I love you way too much to let someone get into our relationship and break it up." He held me close trying to calm me.
"But Andy! He's trying to manipulate you! Kick him out of the band! Get rid of him!" I blurted out as my voice cracked.
"Melissa...I can't do that... All three of us will talk alright?"
"Fine.." I could feel myself start to calm down. I didn't say another word, I went upstairs and locked myself in our room.

Andy's POV
"Are you fucking kidding me Ashley!? You "love" my girlfriend? Is this some sick fucking joke?!" I whispered so Melissa would hear me.
"No it's not Andy... What CC told Melissa is all true... I love her.. I guess. I just don't get why she hates me so much. Well now she has a good reason to.." He trailed off.
"Ashley, go home and think. You are out of your mind right now. I don't even know who you are. Go get a few drinks or something. Come over tomorrow and we can talk more."
"Alright. Bye." As he said that, he left.
I locked the door and went upstairs.

"Melissa? Sweetheart, open the door please.."
I said jiggling the knob.
She opened the door and I saw she had been crying.
"Come here..." I pulled her into me for a hug.
"Andy I love you..." She whimpered.
"I love you too, please stop crying Melissa.." I hugged her tighter, as she did the same to me.
"Andy, I'm scared..."
"Of what hon?"
"Of losing you... I have no where to go if we break up... My whole family hates me."
"You don't need them... You have me, Jake, Jinxx, and CC. We're see for you." I kissed her head gently.
We didn't say anything else, she broke away from the hug and slowly made her way to the bed.
She took off her practically every article of clothing she had on and jumped into bed. I did the same, but kept my boxers on.
I pulled her close to me, and within minutes, we both fell into a sleep...
I just hope I gave her something to dream about.
