Chapter 12: First dates, new drama and trapped in the middle of nowhere part two

Oh my fairy queens I've had to write this chapter like five f****** times. Oh my goodness like what is up with wattpad?! Anyway with my ranting session aside I'm so sorry that I've updated so late. I feel very bad and I promise that there are going to be quite a few surprises as a sorry... Beware of POV changes.

Melanie's POV

"So what did you wanna talk about? " I asked Noah.
"I um... What happened today I don't really know why I kissed you. It just felt like old times and I just... I don't know. Look when I left for school I thought that I was over you, but i guess I kind of wasn't." he replied almost stumbling over his words.

I was shocked at what he said. I surely wasn't expecting this... But why do I feel like this isn't such a happy moment as what I've imagined it so many times during my childhood?
"Noah it was just a kiss it's not like you asked me to marry you. And the crush it's probably Just old feelings that came back for now. " I tried to convince him... Of I don't even know.

"Mel I've always liked, even when I was that little kid that everyone picked on me you stuck beside me and I started falling for you." he said rubbing the back of his neck in a awkward gesture.
"I guess what I'm trying to say is... Would you go out with me? " he asked.

My eyes widened and my mouth stood agape. Oh my god what do I do now? Say yes? Say no? Say French fries? I don't have a clue.
"Noah the thing is that I don't think I'm ready for this... You know for us. I mean with me in high school in South Africa and you at your dad's business in Ireland... I don't think I'm ready for something like that. "

What are you doing? You've wanted to be with him ever since you were nine, scolded the voice in my head.
After a long pause Noah nodded his head and gave me a sad smile. He pulled me up and gave me a hug.
"I'm sorry. " I whispered into his shoulder.

"Just promise me you'll think about it. " he asked before letting go to look me in the eyes.
"I promise. " I said as he walked out the door.
When he was gone I threw myself onto my bed and pressed my face into a pillow. I screamed my lungs out. Why why why do this have to happen now?

I'm such a idiot for making up excuses. I don't even know why I did that.
You do know you're Just in denial
Oh shut it conscience I am not in denial I just... Don't want to believe what the real reason is. That's called denial dimwit

Okay it's official I'm going crazy. First I fight with the voice in my head and then I willingly admit to myself that I am love with someone who's named after a Disney movie about a fish.

Orah's POV

"I can't believe that was you?! Do you know how long it took me to get all that flour out of my hair?! " I shrieked.
He smiled sheepishly and said with a chuckle, "I wasn't aiming for you I was aiming for Astrid and you were unfortunately in my line of fire. " I huffed and crossed my arms over my chest.
Well as good as you can while lying on your side.

After a while of no one coming to rescue us we decided to make ourselves comfortable. We reclined our seats as far as it can go and ate Esmerelda's secret pack of slightly crushed Jelly Beans. Everybody knows that Essie is addicted to Jelly Beans and has secret stashes everywhere.

"Come on you can't tell me that you haven't done something like that. " said Carter propping his head up on his hand.
"Well there was that one time that I filled the boys locker room with vinegar bombs. " I said with a evil smile.
Carter steed at me with a look of shock.
