Hey, guys sorry I have had stuff going on as Melody has been really sad. She messaged me at 3:00 am her time Sunday that her aunt passed away. I know the feeling as my uncle passed on a month ago. So this chapter is dedicated to Melody, her family, and everyone out there who has lost a loved one. Stay strong Melody. -Cameron
(Rob's PoV)
"I,uh, actually have rooms for all of you. I was hoping we could get back together so I prepared for that chance. So um follow me to you rooms. Oh, and I have an extra one, so Jack you have one."
This is crazy. She built all of this! I mean we all knew she had the skills to do this kind of stuff, but damn. Mel could be the real version of Tony Stark.
Melody turns and leads us up a set of spiral stairs and through a door into a hallway. The hallway had three black doors, with a dark green wall paper "All of the bedroom doors are black with one or two streaks of color in them. Each person has different colors. The door knobs are all white. So, Sam you're on the left with the dark orange, Ethan on the right with lime green, and Mat at the end of the hall with the yellow. You can get settled and meet us on the top floor when you're ready." They walked to their designated door as we walked up the stairs to the next floor with more black doors, but dark, ocean blue wallpaper this time and four doors two at the end of the hall. "Rob left the dark blue and gold door, James right the silver door, and Jack the room on left at the end. I'll finish your room later. For now, what's your favorite color?"
Jack rubbed the back of his head, "This may sound creepy, but blood red or crimson." Mel laughed and Jack jumped a little, "What's so funny?" She quickly pulled herself together, "That's what I call crimson, too. I love that color." Jack smiled slightly, "I can pick another color if you would like." Melody shook her head, "No It's fine. We can both have the same color. You guys go ahead and look around your rooms. Meet me upstairs in a bit." With that she turned and walked up the spiral stair case.
I walked over to my room and opened my door. My jaw dropped. The walls were different shades of blue, all either lighter or darker than my hoodie. The ceiling was black with gold streaks crisscrossing it. The bed, made of a polished walnut, had blue sheets, black and gold pillows and the blanket had a large, blue furred dog on it. The desk in the corner had a computer on it, way more advanced than anything I've ever seen, so I assume Mel built it.
I hit the on button and jumped back as a hologram of the desk to projected out. There is no way she built a interactive holographic computers yet. I reached out and pocked the Minecraft icon. The Minecraft launcher opened. I quickly closed the computer afraid to go farther and quickly walked out of the room and up the stairs. The next floor was a large, white, circular room, with several golden doors leading off from the main room. There was an island counter on one side and couches in the middle in front of a large TV.
I shook my head this is WAY to crazy to take in all at once. I noticed the four black doors on this floor. The first door on the left had crimson streaks on it. One of those must be Mel's room. She loves dark red. I shudder as I recall her always referring to this same color as blood red as I sit down on one of the couches to wait for the others.
(Few minutes later)
I was still trying to wrap my head around everything when the others came up the stairs. Sam looked saw me and walked over, "Where's Mel?" I shrugged. At that moment, Melody came out of know where and tackled him onto the couch. "Hey! Get off!" She rolled off him and he started laughing with the rest of us. "You guys never change." She said shaking her head. "Oh, yeah?" Ethan said crossing his arms. "Bad move, dude. Even if she is a lot smaller than you she can still beat the crap out of you. Remember." I warned. He shrugged with a smirk on his face, "I just want a rematch." Jack stepped forward, "Okay, maybe later. How about we start with this?" He motioned around the room. "Jack's right." Mat said, "When the hell did you do all this and what's with the fancy computers in all our rooms?"
