Love without colour

Runaway girl

Melody's P.O.V

Run! Why do I feel the need to run whenever I'm with him? It takes over my entire being until till I'm suffocating with it. I listened as he breathes, making sure that he was still sleeping. I slowly eased myself off of the bed and quickly got dress, I don't know how I knew, but something tells that if he wakes up he'd force me to remember and never let me leave.

I looked at him sleeping and I knew in my heart that it was goodbye. I didn't feel right for him. I ain't no how I knew, but I knew that I done messed up his life somehow. I needed to leave and let him have better, someone better than me.

As I make my way through the house the toy from earlier caught my eyes and I grabbed it. There was something about it that seems important, I just ain't know what yet.

When I woke up from my bed screaming, because of the nightmare I had of Richie dying in some strange parking lot. I felt like I had to go to him, my parents tried to stop me but I just grabbed my keys and ran out of the house. Jumping into my car, I just drove. It wasn't until I was parked outside the house did I realise that I drove there from memory. Although looking at the house I ain't remember every being there.

I wanted to turn back and drive my black ass home, but I knew that I couldn't leave until I was sure he was ok. When he opened the door and I saw him standing there, I just broke down crying, and the moment his arms went around me I felt safe. I was confused by all the weird emotions that I was feeling.

I should have left after seeing him, but I wanted to see inside of the house that I used to live in. my intentions were to have a look around then leave, I never meant to sleep with him. But when I was up in his room and image of us kissing surfaced in my mind. It was so surreal I could have taste the grapes on his lips and felt his tongue in my mouth.

When he stepped towards me and take him in her arms, my senses went wild. I'm telling y'all I ain't never felt anything like that in my life before...well, not that I could remember anyway.

I hooked the toy I took from the house on the air freshener string and replace it back on my mirror. I stared at it for a while, hoping that it would trigger a memory or something, but nothing happened. I didn't want to stay in the driveway for too long in case Richie woke up.

Putting the key in the ignition, I started the car and drove away. Just as I pulled out of the driveway, I saw Harmony pulling in. I didn't stop because I knew that she would ask questions that I ain't ready to answer. I wondered why the baby toy was in Richie's house, now I know. It must belong to Liam.

I drove home with a heavy heart and pounding headache from all the crying I did. As I pulled up to my house I quickly got out and ran in. My parents greeted me. My mother's face was a mass of concern, she pulled me into a crushing hug.

"Are you ok, baby girl? You done scared yo father and me to death, the way you run out of here last night like the devil himself was after you."

I hugged her back, fighting a fresh wave of tears.

"I'm fine mama."

My mother pulled back to look at me, she used her thumb to wipe the tears off my cheeks.

"Do you remember anything now?"

I shook my head, "No, nothing really."

"Are you still going to do what we discussed?" My father asked.

I nodded my head again, "Yes, I'm leaving, I have to. I can't...I can't say here any longer. If I don't go I know he'll force me to remember and I ain't sure I want to remember."
