I sighed sitting down at lunch with Luke, Calum, and Trinity.

"I'm tired." I mutter taking a bite out of the sandwich on my plate.

"We all are stop whining." Trinity teases sticking out her tongue. I reply by sticking my tongue at her. The conversations kept going probably about the football game coming up. I had my head turned to look at Ashton as he walked by he did it every day. I watched him walk by, I did it every single day. It was almost like a stalker obsession. I was totally and completely hooked on Ashton. And you couldn't pay me to confess my feelings. I think whatever I wanted about him and it didn't matter he didn't feel the same way. To him I was a game. A new girl he could mess with and leave behind. A girl who if you whispered in her ear you would make her knees weak and her face blush up. Just because she really was attracted to you. I mean I didn't like Ashton I was just attracted to him. His personality was crap and I hated his music taste. I was just drawn to him. I continued to watch him walk and my gaze followed his movements. Them he head turned towards me and he wink. HE WINKED! At me oh my gosh...Troy winked at Gabriella was this a sign? This meant his feelings towards me were the same ones I felt towards him. WAIT!!! What the heck Melody what are you thinking. He winked that's all, oh my gosh you're an idiot. Of course he doesn't feel the same way are you forgetting you literally were just thinking about how much of a game all of this was to him? I am just an idiot. I don't even know where all these feelings came from. I mean he is a jerk like a real full blown dirtbag if you asked me but I like him. I liked his hair. That it was starting to get long. I liked his eyes that were this Hazel brown shade that just ugh. I should stop right here right now stop. I took a deep breath.

"Hey I'll be right back I gotta take care of something." I announced walking off to the bathroom. Luckily it was pretty empty so I slipped into a stall. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

"I do not like Ashton." I whispered.

"I do not like Ashton." I whispered again my voice very slowly gaining volume. I kept repeating myself till finally it was the truth. I didn't like Ashton I was just attracted to him. There was a difference. It was obvious that keeping with the world's standard of beauty, Ashton was attractive. But, when you like someone unless you're a very shallow person. You like their personality and Ashton's personality was nothing to fall for. So obviously I did not like Ashton. I smiled to myself because I felt in control. I was in control of my emotions. I understood them and felt totally in control. I waltzed out of the bathroom feeling like the queen. And continued out of the doorway and straight into someone's chest. That was my literal skill, just run straight into trouble the moment I had fixed everything. I started to tip backwards from the impact and then felt an arm snake around my waist. I knew the arm was wrapped in leather because I could feel it against my skin. In the want Australian weather I had worn my favorite crop top. So I could feel the cool leather in my back and I opened my eyes to see Michael, Ashton's colorful friend.

"I'm so sorry." I whisper my shy side coming out. Normally I was pretty confident but Ashton and Michael scared me.

"It's fine." Michael replied helping me back on balance.

"I'm so awkward and clumsy." I sigh realizing I had spilt the entire contents of my bag on the floor.

"Let me help." Michael winked and we both started to pick up all of the my pencils and papers and books that had fallen out of the bag.

"Thank you so much. Seriously it would have been even more awkward had I just tripped and fallen straight onto my butt." I laughed picking my now full bag off the floor.

"Anytime, you know you blush really cute, and you have a really pretty smile that goes with it." He smirked and I could tell it was a fake compliment.

"Thanks?" I questioned and he shook his head.

"I'm being real with you." He smiled more genuinely this time.

"Okay." I reply trying to keep the the awkward down.

"You really are beautiful." Michael whispered coming close to me. I yanked my head back and backed away. He reeked of cigarette smoke and I couldn't handle that smell, not anymore.

"Hey Mi-" Ashton yells walking up to us. I feel my smile fall into a harsh glare. I was still mad at him from yesterday.

"Melody, uh hey." He smiles and I continue my glare.

"Anyway thanks, bye Michael, Ash." I nod and walk away trying to get out of there fast.

"Yeah anytime Melody." Michael smirks and I walk out of the way and back to my lunch table with Trinity and the boys.

"So Calum why didn't you tell me you weren't single?" I interrogated. As soon as I sat back down.

"Oh I don't know it wasn't important."

"What if I had developed a monster crush on you." I fake pouted and Calum laughed.

"I'm sorry Mel."

"It's okay I met her though she's super sweet." I smile and Calum nods.

"She really is. And she's really pretty." He blushes and Trinity and I both awwwwww.

"Oh well if Calum's happy I'll just cry in a corner in my darkened sadness."

"You can be my side hoe?" Calum offered and I shook my head.

"Knowing you will never love me tears my small heart to pieces." I giggle trying to continue but giving up.

"I love how cute Calum is but it makes me wish I wasn't so single." Trinity confesses and I laugh and Luke gets this look about him like, yeah me either wanna go out. Of course that's just how I'm reading the situation.

"So Luke are you single?" I ask preparing myself for any form of an answer.

"No but I have my eye on someone she's really gorgeous." Luke blushes as he makes eye contact with Trinity than flicks his eyes away. I shipped it so hard you don't even know.

"Oh well just remember the sooner you pour out your feelings the sooner she'll be yours." I tell him trying to push him into asking Trinity out.

"Yeah but she's way out of my league." He sighs and I shake my head.

"Luke your gorgeous, okay no one is out of your league except Beyoncé and that's only because she's married okay? Go for it." I tell him trying to boost his confidence and everyone just laughs.

"Yeah okay." He smiles and we continue eating our lunches in silence. Today had been an interesting lunch.

So yeah I hope you liked this chapter and I want to hear your feedback so if you have any let me know. Love, Melody.
