Chapter 11 - Mrs Haynes

---Melody's pov (october 14th)---

"Good morning Melody" Ethans dad shouted at me as I walked into the kitchen. I then muttered a good morning back as he handed me a cup of coffee. I learnt a long time ago that Mr Haynes or Bryce as he wanted me to call him, was a morning person. I then took my seat at a big table next to Zak, who was revising Geography I think.

I had gotten around to asking Michael, Calum, Luke and Ashton for help with Zaks revision. Michael took care of the science revision, Luke helped with Maths, Calum helped with English and Ashton got Geography. They even took it upon themselves to choose which day as well.

"You two can dig in if you want. My wife sleeps in on a Friday and Ethan is never awake before ten on a friday but you should already know that Mels" Mr Haynes explained as I nodded. When me and Ethan started dating I learnt first hand about how late he sle-

"Shit" I muttered as the coffee mug slipped out my hand and clattered on the floor. Mr Haynes and Zak both gave me a worried look like I had killed someone.

"Melody are you ok" Mr Haynes asked walking over. I quickly nodded before using my pyjama top to at least attempt cleaning up some of the mess.

"Melody it's ok. I've been meaning to get that carpet cleaned for years" Mr Haynes explained crouching down next to me. But something was telling me otherwise.

Mels it's your mess you should clean it up.

"No its not Mr Hay-I mean Bryce. Its my mess I should clean up" I muttered scrubbing the carpet harder. My white shirt was starting to get a brown stain but at least the mark was disappearing.

"Melody are you ok" Zak asked once I stopped. I just nodded before smiling that the mark was almost gone.

"I'm fine Zak. We are guests and we should be cleaning our own messes" I answered before sitting back in the chair. I then grabbed a piece of toast and a piece of bacon. I know he wouldn't like that... he never did.

"Good morning Dad" Ethan grumbled walking into the kitchen like he was a zombie. Mr Haynes quickly nodded before pouring me another mug of coffee.

"eat quickly before these two start eating it all" He explained before looking at one of us... i want to say it was Zak. Ethan just nodded before sitting next to me. Out of everywhere he could sit it had to be next to me.

Its cause he loves you.

"Mels you ok" Ethan whispered as I just nodded. Why would I tell him about imaginary Ethan? He would probably use it against me like 'oh your cheating on me with my imaginary self'.

"Hi Darling" A voice cried as I shove the piece of toast into my mouth. Ethans mum or Mrs Haynes as she wants me to call her, walked into the kitchen.

She absolutely hated me and I always thought it had something to do with my Mum. It probably does have something to do with her cause when isn't she ruining my life.

If you were to compare Mr Haynes to his wife Mrs Haynes you wouldn't have a lot of comparisons. Mr Haynes was nicer, more caring and more forgiving.

Mrs Haynes would have probably planned my murder if she saw me spill that coffee earlier.

"Good morning Addi are you needed for work today" Mr Haynes asked walking over with Mrs Haynes. She shook her head before staring at me with a smile. Was it a 'happy' smile or satan smile?

"My boss says I have been working so hard that I have the day off" She answered still smiling at me. I feel like I should regret what ever she says next.
