Sex Nights

Chapter 26

- Melody, Melody wakes up. - says Maya. - Are you ok?
- Where's Dylan? - I ask her.
- You are angry with him, remember? You have been avoiding it since yesterday because of your cousin.
- So I was just dreaming? Didn't I go to Miami?
- What? What are you talking about?
- Forget it, I'm going to use the bathroom.
I go into the bathroom, lock myself in the bathroom and then look at myself in the mirror and start screaming and crying until I lean against a wall.
The words he and I used in my dream were so real and romantic.
Today I decide to put on makeup, straighten my hair and wear a more daring girl's outfit. I have to feel differently today, I have to live and show them that I was not born for sex tests or to be a boy's pawn.
I hide my dark circles from crying so quickly.
I'm going to see my mom at her house in New York.
She called me to say she had a surprise for me, if not, I wouldn't have come here.
I walk into her building and she is sitting watching "It's Ok to Not Be Ok".
- Hi mom.
- Hello baby.
- Seriously, you're still watching that series? - hi ask her, we laughed.
- I have already repeated the same season six times.
- Mom? You should see different things.
- I know but that's not why I called you here.
It takes me to a lot where I find a beautiful white car.
- I hope you know how to drive. - she says.
- Mom? Omg... tank you.
I hug her with all my affection and start to cry with emotion.
She signals me to get in the car and go home.
I touch the steering wheel and there we go, get on the road Melody.
I notice that in the glove compartment there is a photo album. When I arrive and park the car in front of the college I decide to see the album before getting out of the car.
Within this album I can find pictures of me as a child and before I came to college in high school.
I get out of the car and take my album with me. I walk and walk until I enter my room.
I lie down on my bed on my stomach and flick through the pages until I find a picture of me with Dylan.
I get a message from Jasmin saying " There will be a party on a private beach that only the people we invite can come."
I think about saying no but I need to be distracted.
I drive to the beach where Jasmin says there is going to be a party.
I take off the t-shirt right inside the car and leave only the shorts with the bikini. Jasmin continues to text me and says that they are inside the small wooden bar.
I enter the bar and Jasmine comes to me.
- Hey Melody... how are you?
- Do you work here now?
- Yes, you know? College is not really my scene.
She leads me to the table where they are all.
They all look at me and I notice that Dylan's eyes shine as brightly as in my dream.
- Hey Melody. Join us. - Rachel says.
I will go to them.
- Get ready, they sure know what you told Maya and me about. - Jasmim tells me.
- So how have you been? - Jace asks me and Dylan and John look at me.
- Honestly too well. Without you around I'm always better. - I say. I turn around and start walking.
Someone pulls me and I look back.
- Can we talk? - Dylan tells me.
- We have nothing to talk about. Anything else? I came here just because of Jasmine and now I'm leaving to take advantage of the fact that my mother gave me a car.
- Is your mother here? - he asks me and they are all looking at me.
- No, I went to New York to see her. Now let me go or I swear I'll call security.
He lets go of me and his eyes fill with tears as I leave.
