Good Girl Gone To Fall In Love (BOOK 3)

Chapter 13

It's been a few weeks since we revealed our stories about each other, let's just say we are closer than ever. And when I say closer than ever I mean the boys walk around shirtless (nothing new there) and Vivian and I walk around in bras.

It was a usual day with me waking up to Alec beside me; yes the routine is back! Me trying to get out of his grip, but him refusing to let me go. We'd stay in bed for a few minutes longer until Vivian and Nate barge in-to be completely honest, I know there is something going on between them.

After Vivian and Nate practically push us out of bed, we all scramble off to our bathrooms to get ready for the day. I get into a pair of black ripped (like really ripped) jeans, and a light blue crop top that hugged my curves perfectly. My makeup consisted of a smokey eye, wing liner, mascara, and lip gloss.

I still have clear skin.

I put on my black, platform heel, boots, and grab my black bag.

If you couldn't tell here, my theme is black.

I go into the kitchen to wait for the rest of my friends. In the mean time I cut up some strawberries, get a spoon, and get my small jar of Nutella.

I was licking off my fingers when they finally decided to show up.

"Took you long enough," I remarked.

"Babe, it takes time to look your best," Nate said.

"Hey, she isn't your babe, she's mine," Alec said and kissed my lips. "You taste like Nutella."

"Well duh! Nutella is amazing, and so am I!" I smirked.

Oh did I forget to inform you? Alec finally got the balls to ask me to be his girlfriend! It was all romantic; or as romantic as we get.

Apparently him and Nate are illegal street racers; they race cars. So of course I go to each one of their races, and at one of Alec's big wins, he asked me to be his girlfriend.

"LETS GO!!!" Vivian screamed.

"Oh you're just jealous," I stated.

"You wish," she snapped and turned around. My heart dropped a little when I saw her shoulders slump a little.

I knew she had a crush on Nate. That's why she was always sad when he and I went out. She tried covering it up, but she isn't exactly good at covering up her emotions.

"Hey, I'm sorry," I said to her.

"No, yeah, it's cool," she said over her shoulder and walked out the door.

Finally sick of their friends with benefits situation I whispered something into Alec's ear and he gave me a confused look.

"Just do it Salt!" I said.

"Whatever Pepper," he said and sighed. He left the penthouse and closed the door.

"Lets go Mel," Nate said walking towards the door.

"Uh you and I aren't going anywhere," I said.

"What are you talking about?" he asked.

"I'm talking about those kisses on the cheeks? Those sweet texts messages! You guys sleeping in the same bed together! Can't you see it?" I asked.

"What? Who are we talking about?" Nate said.

"You know exactly who I'm talking about! You're "friends with benefits" buddy! You know who were friends with benefits? Me and Alec! And guess what? The girls always want out first! And then guess what? They confront you! And because you're too wrapped up not having a commitment, you don't have an answer for them! And bam! You drift apart! She obviously likes you! And you obviously like her! So just ask her out already because it's totally bugging us BOTH out dude!" I exclaimed. Nate stood there shocked.

"I-who-likes me?" he stuttered out.

"Oh my god stop acting dumb! There's a reason why she's completly bumbed out whenever she sees me and Alec together! Because you aren't doing a damn thing! So get your act together, figure your life out real quick, and make sure you get the girl we all know you want!" I yelled.

"And who would that be?" he mumbled.

"You and I both know who I'm talking about! Say it! Admit it! Cause you're not leaving here until you do," I said.

"You can't make me," he said.

"Try me tough guy," I glared.

"No!" he exclaimed.

"TELL ME WHO IS ALL UP IN YOUR HEAD EVERY NIGHT AND DAY!" I screamed.

"VIVIAN! OKAY? VIVIAN STANLEY!" he broke. "Your roommate! The girl I've liked since she first got here! Before Alec met me! Before I became popular! When she was always badass and I was a nerd! It's Vivian; alright Melody? I like Vivian,"

I smirked with victory once I heard his confession and the door open.

"And there you have it," I said knowing Alec and Vivian were behind me. "You underestimate me babe," I said still looking at Nate.

"Never again," Alec said and kissed me on the cheek coming beside me.

"I'll let you two talk. Thank me later. You're excused from morning classes, I'll make sure of it," I said with Alec's hand in mine.

I closed the door and Alec walked me to my first class.

"How did you do it?" he asked.

"I know a thing or two on how a girl likes to hear her crush confess their undying love for them," I said with a grin.

"He didn't admit his love," Alec remarked.

"All in good time Salt," I said and gave him a quick peck on the lips. "See ya." And I walked in to my vocal class.
