After deciding to visit the festival- to which that they pretty much ignored my objections- they all waited for my shift to be over. Unlike them, who were counting the seconds to my freedom, I was counting the seconds with agony. Many things empowered my reason to think like this.

One, and the most efficient being, I did not want to embarrass myself in front of Emily. Two, Emily herself. Even though everything might have seen good at that time, I knew there was so much more that we had to discuss in terms of concluding the "problem". But truth to be told, all in all, I was happy that we were communicating in the first place.

And after what seemed like half an hour later my shift came to end to my unfortunate. I nearly begged Adam to do an extra shift that day, with the exception he didn't have to pay me anything for it. However, to my luck, Taylor blurted out my previous scary ride memory to Adam -which he laughed to mercilessly- and said that I needed to go. Assuming she all wanted for me to accompany her because she knew so well that I'd make her day. Evil little bitch. 

In the end, Adam wished me luck with a cunning smirk on his face and forced me to leave the shop. I glared at Taylor the whole ride but she just ignored me completely and made small talks with both Nicole and Emily.

Talking about Emily, who was sitting next to me, would glance at me from time to time, but wouldn't do much more than that. It was awkward. Even a person random person could feel the elephant in the car.

I think it was okay to say that it was the moment of a "hangover" morning, walk of shame... etc. etc. I knew it was nothing like before because she would give me little smiles and acknowledge my presence. Thank God! Although I couldn't say we were as comfortable around each other as we were before all these... complicating occasions occurred. She was shy, I was shy.

And a part of me was still in shock to all of this, after everything that has been felt, touched, said. A part of me still wanted the old Melanie Stone back; the heartless, nonchalant, ignorant to feelings... the player.

Don't get me wrong I was not in denial to my feelings because they were strong, stronger than anything I have experienced before and it kind of scared me.

With me busy trying to weighting the thoughts and feelings I had, we arrived at the festival to my unfortunate. 

"Here we are!" Taylor squealed. 

"That looks amazing." Nicole pointed a ride that could have been easily seen from miles away due to it's height. 

"So amazing..." I mumbled and got out of the car with the res of them. Taylor saw my pouting and she pouted too, throwing her arm around my neck.

"Aww baby, don't be so sad now." Before I could glare at her Nicole threw her arm around my waist.

"I swear you'll have so much fun." I rolled my eyes to both of them. 

"Emily help us brighten her mood." Taylor called to Emily who was looking at us with an amused look on her face. When she heard Taylor calling her her mood dropped a little and I saw her cheeks blush a little from some reason.

She cleared her throat. "Uhm- Yeah... It's going to be fun." I continued eyeing them all with a grumpy mood. 

"Come on Emily, you can do better." Nicole encouraged. I swear there is something going on here with Taylor and Nicole being so persistence to Em and I. Emily was hesitant at first but she took a few steps towards me. Even though it was not as close as to think anything sexual, it was close enough for me to hold my breath and wait for her next move.

"Would you come, please?" She asked with the softest tone I could ever imagine a person could make out. And I swear if Nicole's arm wasn't holding me or Taylor wasn't supporting me from my shoulders, I would have fall due to my knees suddenly going weak. I could never once in my life think a voice to have effects on my lust and emotions but here she was, proving me wrong once again. And I must have said something like "ehh" because both Taylor and Nicole let me go while they celebrated Emily for bringing me round. Emily just laughed nervously and blushed more.
