Melany

"You look absolutely stunning," Xavier complimented me as we entered the restaurant.

"Thank you," I smiled at him.

Xavier got us booked a table at one of the most prestigious restaurants in New York City. A few paparazzi caught us outside but I wasn't shy of Xavier.

Xavier pulled back my chair & we both sat down at our table.

"Wow you really went all out for this huh," I looked around & the big chandelier in the center of the room caught my eye.

"All for you babe," he held my hands. I looked at his face & it made me smile. Our food arrived & I dug into my meal whilst Xavier watched me eat. I looked up & thought maybe I was eating like a slob.

"I'm sorry. I eat like a two year old sometimes," I chuckled & wiped my mouth with a napkin.

"No, no it's okay," he smirked, "I was actually staring at your beauty," he complimented. I was drinking a beverage so I started choking again.

"Just like the first time we talked," he chuckled. I finally got my breath back & smiled.

"I'm sorry," I apologised & looked down.

"There's something about you Melany Kesting," he said & shook his head in amazement. I blushed & tucked a strand of hair behind my ear.

"Melany you're actually so amazing. I know I've only known you for three weeks but it seems like I could spend forever with you. You have no idea how you make me feel. The way you smile, the way you kiss, the way you laugh, the way you act. It's just so genuine. I've actually never felt like this for a girl before. I feel like you made me leave my player ways. You changed me & I want you to change me more. Damn Mel, this is hard for me to say. I've never said this type of stuff to anybody & I'm sorry if I'm getting really sappy but I want you to be mine Melany," he spoke.

My heart was jumping out of my chest. That was the most heartwarming thing that anybody has ever said to me. Xavier did make me feel a way I've never felt & maybe he did want me for the fame at first but now, he wants me for me & I want him for him.

"Xavier," I put my hand on my chest & exhaled in shock. Before I could continue, an image shifted into my mind.

It was Aidan, him looking into my eyes. He was looking at me in a different light. Someone has never looked at me like that before. Xavier didn't even look at me like that now. Aidan was stroking my cheek & putting the hair behind my ears. He was holding both my hands & massaging my knuckles. He was whispering sweet nothings to me & then one rung in my head the longest.

"I love you Melany," he spoke & my mind began to fade.

I was zoning out when I heard Xavier's voice in the background.

"Babe? You alright?" I heard. I zoned back into reality & smiled at him. One thing was racing through my mind

I have to tell him about me & Aidan.

"Xavier babe. Before I say yes to your offer I need to come clean about something," I held his hand & stroked it with the other.

"Yeah?" his eyes filled with worry. I held my breath & my eyes began to tear up.

"Aidan & I," I started & closed my eyes bitterly, "slept together," I whispered the last part & broke down. He was getting infuriated.

"When?" he gritted through his teeth angrily.

"Wednesday when I saw you kissing Robyn at Jada way. But you betrayed me Xavier!" I started yelling through my tears.

We were causing a scene which was bad because people outside were taking photos & videos.

"Melany. Kissing someone & having sex with someone are two different things!" he yelled back at me. I was balling my eyes out & begging for forgiveness.

He stood up from his chair & I kept yelling baby but he left the restaurant. I saw him go into his car & leave. I didn't know where he was going but I had to follow him.

I ran over to a neighbouring table & asked them to borrow their car. Since they were my fans, they automatically said yes & I was already out the door & on the road. I was crying but trying to wipe my tears so I wouldn't get into an accident. I followed his car, trying not to lose him & my heart dropped when I saw him park his car at a place I thought he would never go.
