Melina POV

Once the guys left I was dreadfully bored. I couldn't sleep I was too freaked out and was shaking too much to. I sent a few messages to Jack later on at 4:00am praying he'd be up. I spent half of my time staring at the stupid wall I felt like I was going to die of boredom. I would have texted or called them earlier but I didn't want to seem annoying. I laid back down and groaned. My head was swarming with thoughts and being alone didn't help at all. All of a sudden the table besides me buzzed and the light flashed on. I grinned in delight. It was Jack.
Jack💬-Hey what are you doing up so early
Melina💬-Can't sleep blea heh
Jack💬- Me either... Can you Uhm talk on the phone maybe Facetime
Melina💬- Yea hold on
I fixed my hair up a bit before calling him. "Hey" he smiled his face coming onto the screen. "Hey. You can drop the fake smile. What's wrong" I sighed. "Just a bit on my mind. Overthinking I guess" he frowned. I nodded sadly understanding what he meant. "So how are you" he asked. "I'm fine" I lied. I honestly had no clue why I was sad I just was, my head was swarming with answers I just had to chose one. "Fine never means fine. That's my rule. So what's wrong" he replied sternly. "I don't know" I shrugged. He let out a sigh. "Im sorry" I frowned. I zoned out and answered questions after that until I feel asleep. Part of me had wanted to talk to him and ask what was making him overthink but I didn't have the words at the time. When I woke up I started to realize these nurses were horrible. My body was covered with cuts, I still had a slight bruise on my eye, and had an Ed. And I'm only staying one day. Anne Arundel county had horrible hospitals when it came to teens I'm actually surprised that I was here considering that I lived in Annapolis. But whatever. I sighed and checked my phone not even knowing why. I decided to go onto social media. "Hate comments as usual" I mumbled under my breath. "What? Why would anyone hate on you" someone asked. I screamed not knowing anyone else was in the room with me. "Dude chill out" Wren laughed. "Dick eye" I mumbled. "How long have you guys been here" I asked biting the dry skin off of my finger. It had become a nervous habit for me. "About an hour" Sean replied looking up from his book. My face paled a bit. "T-that's a j-joke righ-right" I stumbled. "Sean you douche bag it's only been 20 minutes" Jack groaned. "Oh it seemed longer" he replied returning to his book once more. "I'm surrounded by assholes" i grumbled sarcastically. "Diva queen" Wren stated. "More like a princess" Sean replied. "A what" I asked. I'd never been called a princess before. "You know a princess. You're beautiful and strong but also prissy" Sean replied. I stuck out my tounge in reply. Jack seemed awfully quiet today he barely said anything so far. I was worried, he's usually never quiet and he was looking at me in a strange way. He'd look at me smile, look back down and ran his hands in his hair and repeat like every five minutes. While Wren was talking I shot him my famous are-you-okay-or-do-you-need-help look. "I'm alright" he mouthed back. "Hey are you even listening" Wren groaned crossing his arms. "Huh oh I'm sorry. Just zoned out haha I'm really tired" I lied. I don't know why I did. There was no reason to lie. I shook my head clearing my thoughts and looked over at Sean. "What book is he reading anyways" I asked. Jack tilted his upper body downwards so he could see the cover. "It's treasure island" he grinned leaning back up. "Huh" Sean said looking up confused. I laughed knowing he was into the book. "Treasure Planet is the best movie ever, can't quiet get into the book no matter how hard I try though" I grinned. It was Jacks turn for his eyes to light up. "You like Treasure Planet" he grinned like a mad man. "Only my favorite movie. I can quote the whole thing word for word" I laughed. "Gah I'm not a fan. It's way diffrent from treasure island the movie. The original" Sean stated closing the book. Me, Wren, and Jack looked at him in horror. "You're in trouble" Wren sang. "How can you not love treasure planet. It's so emotional. Plus hot cartoon characters" I practically shouted. "Have you not been connected to the character or the sadness of the deaths" Jack backed me up. "Jim had his father walk out on him. How could you not like the sad hot character" I gasped. "Would you stop calling him hot" Jack laughed. "Hell no. He's a sexy beast" I grinned sticking out my tongue. "Okay then" Sean gagged. "Admit it he's hot" I said leaning over and thwacking Jack on the head. "Hey ow" he laughed. I thwacked him again until he finally admit it. "Ha told you" I grinned proudly. "I love how quiet Wren is during this" Sean smiled. "I once told her I'd never seen the movie and she wouldn't talk to me until I did. Evil" Wren said looking over at me. I giggled. Which made Sean blush and Jack grin in a weird way. Weirdos. Me and Jack started talking about the movie for hours while Sean and Wren groaned and complained about us the whole time. Eventually the got way to sick of it and left to go get food. "We've scared them off" I giggled. "Uhm hm" he nodded. "I need to go to your house sometime" I said way too randomly. "What" he replied. I felt my face heat up. I swear it had to have been as red as a tomato. "No no not for that" I stuttered. "Wasn't thinking that you dirty mind" he grinned slyly. Forget a tomato my face was redder that that I could feel it. He came over to the bed and got real close to my face just to freak me out even more. "Unless you want to" he smiled deviously. My hands got sweaty and my heart was beating so loud I thought he could hear it. "No no no no" I repeated over and over. He got even closer to me. His lips were practically on mine and our noses were together. He poked me in the stomach and I gasped. I was super ticklish in my stomach. I hated it. He moved super fast and kissed me on the cheek. My face somehow got even warmer I swear to god if I wasn't entirely reder than red then monsters still existed. The guys chose this moment to walk in with Jack laughing like crazy and me blushing like a mad man. "What happened in here" Sean asked seeming almost angry. "Nothing" I replied quickly. "I can tell" Wren scoffed sarcastically. "What'd he do to you" Wren teased poking my face. "Yea" Sean asked shooting Jack a glare. What the fuck was going on with them. "I really didn't do anything I just made a sex joke" he laughed. I scowled at him. I was asexual at least I think I was and wasn't afraid to admit it, I wasn't interested in sex and was actually scared of it. "Dude those are the best to make with her. She squirms so much" Wren smiled happily. I punched him in the arm, hard. "So when do you want to come over" Jack asked. "Oh I don't care" I replied. "We could all come to my house tomorrow" Sean said quickly. Weird but it did sound like a good idea. "Sounds good to me" I sighed in relief. Jack clenched his fists. "Peachy" he smiled. Okay seriously what the fuck was going on with them. "I can't tomorrow but you guys can have fun" Wren stated. Tomorrow when I was out of the hospital, back at school, and back to reality. I could do this.
