The Arranged Marriage (A One Direction Fan Fiction)

Chapter 20

Melissa's POV

"I'm not jumping out of an f-ing plane. No way in hell." I say, not moving from my seat in the car. Niall and Liam are currently trying to get me out of the car and into the small shack in front of us.

"C'mon, Melissa. We'll be with you the entire time!" Liam tries to convince me to get out.

"Is all of us dying together supposed to make me feel better?" I ask, being slightly over-dramatic. Okay, I'm being very over-dramatic about the whole dying thing.

"Being with us is supposed to make you feel safe." Niall tells me.

"Not to be mean, but that doesn't make me feel any better." I inform them.

"Just get out of the car already! The sooner you get out the sooner we can be done with this and go get lunch." Liam says, using my weakness: food.

"But it's way to cold too go jumping out of planes!" I whine.

Next thing I know, Liam is pulling me out of the car and carrying me to the little shack.

"Put me down!" I scream.

"No can do, Melly." Liam smirks.

"Liam James Payne, you will put me down this minute!" I yell.

"Alright." Liam says, then puts me down. "We're inside anyways."

"Culo." I mutter.

"What?" Niall asks with a confused look on his face.

"I said culo. It's Italian for ass." I explain.

"That's not a nice word." Liam huffs.

"I know." I laugh. Liam then goes to talk to the person who runs this skydiving place.

After a few minutes of silence Niall pipes up saying, "How do you know Italian?"

"I've been spending my summers in Italy since I moved to Ireland, so I've picked up a lot of the language." I answer.

"That's cool! You'll have to show me all of the good places in Italy one summer." Niall smiles.

"It might take a couple of summers to do that. There's so many places to go to." I inform him.

"Well, we can start with the food and work our way up." Niall says, making me laugh.

Then Liam comes back with a worker and says, "We've got to do a short safety class and then we can go sky-diving."

"Yay." I say sarcastically.

****

Thirty minutes later we're all suited up and in the plane that we have to jump out of.

"Are you guys ready?" The guys, who's name is Dave, asks while opening the door we'll use to get out.

"No!" I yell, trying to make sure he can hear me.

Dave just laughs and continues to speak. "So one of you can go with me and two of you can go together. Who's going with who?"

Niall looks at Liam and says, "Since it's technically your time with Melissa, you can go with her."

"Are you sure, Niall?" I ask. "I can just go with Dave."

"I'm sure, Mel." Niall assures me.

"Alrighty then." Dave says, then starts strapping us together, Liam and I first.

"Are you scared?" Liam asks me once we're strapped up.

"I would give you a stupid answer because that's a stupid question, but I'm too scared to think of a witty comeback." I ramble.

"If it makes you feel any better, I'm scared too." He admits.

"Really? Mister 'it isn't that bad' is scared?" I laugh at him.

"Are you guys ready?" Dave interrupts us.

"Yeah." Liam and I answer at the same time.

"You ready, Niall?" I ask Niall, adrenaline pumping through my veins, making me excited. That's not exactly a good thing, cause it's making me jump up and down. Which is kinda hard to do while strapped to Liam.

"Not at all." Niall answers, looking scared out of his mind.

"Okay, Niall and I will go first." Dave says, then him and Niall walk to the door and jump.

Liam and I walk to the door, but we stop. "Are you ready?" Liam asks, looking right into my eyes.

"As ready as I'll ever be."

And with that, we jump out of the plane.
