Mellissa's Diary

Final Part

Final Part

I slowly opened the door and tiptoed towards the stairs. That’s when I saw it. Derek and Beth making out on the stairs. More like Beth backed up against the wall by Derek. Since when did they make out? Did they finally tell each other that they liked each other … or more.

I deliberately coughed to get their attention. They pulled back a little and looked into each other’s eyes. If it weren’t my brother and a girl who was like my sister making out I would have been really excited but this was just too gross for me.

“I don’t wanna get nightmares!” I half-yelled. The look they gave me after that was hard to comprehend. It was sort of like confusion-anger-embarrassment.

“You’re late,” Derek said.

“And you’re making out with Beth,” I said.

“That’s not the most important thing right now,” Derek said.

“It isn’t?” Beth asked hurt.

“It is important,” Derek said giving her a loving look, “I’ll just deal with her first and then we can talk. Alright?”

“Fine,” Beth said, “I’ll be in your room.”

“Ok,” Derek said as Beth walked upstairs.

“Why are you late? Did he do something to you?” he asked concerned.

“Why were you kissing Beth?” I asked, “And you answer first.”

He sighed at first and then told me excitedly, “She likes me back. I just acted on instinct and kissed her.”

“She kissed back?” I asked.

“Yeah, she did,” he grinned.

“That’s great!” I said and headed upstairs.

“Not that fast,” he stopped me.

“What?” I asked.

“How was your date?” he asked me as he was concerned.

“Good,” I smiled, “He thought me how to bowl.”

“Really?” he asked amused, “was he successful?”

“I can bowl now!” I said excited.

“Seriously?” he asked shocked.

I nodded and said, “he’s pretty good at bowling.”

“And he didn’t hurt you in anyway?” he asked.

“I’m fine,” I said giving him a reassuring smile. “You better go to Beth.”

“You’re right,” he said, he kissed my forehead and ran upstairs.

I wiped my forehead immediately. He kissed Beth with those lips. Eww. I ran up to my room and fell on my bed. My phone rang.

“Hey Cameron,” I answered.

“Hey Mel,” he said, “I just reached home. Am I screwed?”

“No, you’re not,” I said, “You’re fine.”

“I sound like a girl when I say this but, I miss you,” he said slowly.

“I miss you too,” I blushed.

“When do you think our next date should be?” he asked.

“Can I ask you for something first?” I asked.

“Go ahead,” he said unsure.

“Promise me you won’t hurt me in anyway,” I asked him, almost pleaded.

“You don’t trust me?” he asked hurt.

“I just don’t want to be used,” I said.

He sighed and said “I promise I will never hurt you.”

“Thank you,” I smiled, “That meant so much to me.”

“I understand,” he said.

“I’ll be the best girlfriend that you have ever had,” I said proudly.

“I know you will,” he said.

We continued talking until I was sleepy.

The End

Ps. After 40 years, we’re still together.
