- A week later -

Melody P.O.V Today I was finally getting back to school. I woke up by the sound of my alarm and immediately got up. I ran downstairs and made myself breakfast. I quickly ate it and ran back upstairs to change. Then I grabbed my bike and got to school. Once I was there, I felt kind of nervous. Would anyone had seen that I hadn’t been there? Would Mackenzie have noticed? Well, she’s gonna get her ass kicked. I walked into the building, and got no weird looks. So no one had noticed I was gone. I kind of expected that. I walked over to my locker and put my jacket in there.

Then Ross walked up to me. “Hey babe. I’m so glad you’re back.” He smiled and wrapped his arms around my waist. I kissed the top of his nose and smiled. He pulled me into a hug and my mood immediately changed when I saw Mackenzie walking in our direction. I pulled away and walked over to her. “Look who we got there, the little bitch.” She said with an evil grin on her face. I slapped her on the cheek. “How do you dare to treat my boyfriend like that?!” I screamed. She gasped. “Cause he’s supposed to be mine!” She wanted to attack me, when Riker pulled her back. “Riker, let her go dam-“ Before I could continue, Ross pulled me back and covered my mouth, making everything I said looking like mumbles.

Ross took me to the schoolyard and he sat down on the picnic-table. He wanted me to sit down too, but I wanted to walk back into the school, but he pulled me back. “Let me handle this!” I screamed in anger. He pulled me closer to him and looked me deeply in the eyes. He carefully placed his hand on my cheek. “Babe you’re trembling, calm down.” He said calmly. He knew that whenever he looked me in the eyes and put his hand on my cheek, it always calmed me. “S-She can’t treat you like that.” I said. I didn’t know why, but my emotions were just mixed up. I just felt sad all of the sudden. He pulled me onto his lap and held me close.

“I get the fact that she’s mad, and when it comes to love, girls can react like that. It happened once and won’t ever happen again. I promise.” He whispered. I softly laid my head against his chest, when the other Lynches walked up to us. “How’s Mackenzie?” Ross asked. “We told the principal what happened.. And Mackenzie walked away in anger. I guess she’s telling her mom everything by now. They’re probably gonna get a conversation with the principal sooner or later.” Riker explained. “How are you?” Ellington leaned down and looked at me. “C-Can be better.” I whispered. Ever since Mackenzie slapped Ross, it seemed like she had an influence on me. I had no idea why, but it felt like that was happening.

“Do you think you can handle two more hours?” Ross asked, grabbing my chin and making me face him. I nodded. The rest of that day, I told the teachers I had headache. Most of the teachers hadn’t seen the fight between me and Mackenzie. I guess they did talk about it though. When the day ended, the Lynches walked with me to my locker, and I saw Mackenzie’s friends giving me hateful looks. If I had to admit, I really wanted to do them something, but wasn’t in the mood for it. I had no idea why I was this sad. It wasn’t my fault after all, right? “I’m gonna drive you home. I have a little something in the planning.” Ross whispered and kissed the side of my head. I got into his car and we drove over to mine. “Grab some swim-stuff and we’ll go.” He smiled sweetly. I smiled a little smile at him and quickly grabbed the first bikini I could find.

I walked back to Ross, and he drove over to his place. He quickly got inside, I guess he grabbed his swim-stuff too, but when he came back outside, his whole family followed. He told me to come out of the car and we all walked over to the van. All together, we got to the beach. Rydel and I laid the towels down, and the boys immediately started a volleyball-game. “Wanna join?” Rydel smiled and looked from the boys over at me. “I’d rather do a little tanning first.” I said and laid down on my towel. “Okay. I’m gonna join them, you don’t mind right?” I shook my head. After laying in the sun for ten minutes, I thought it would be time for some sun crème. I put it on my skin, and when I was busy with it, Ross ran over to me. “Let me help you.” He said and sat down behind me, messaging my back, so it would work. The feeling of his big hands on my back felt lovely. Then I felt his mouth against my neck. “You like the feeling of my hands, don’t you?” He mumbled. Even though I had just been in the sun, his hot breath still made me shiver. I nodded lightly. He chuckled.

“I love you, Mel. And my stupid ex isn’t gonna change that.” He said as he turned me around and put his forehead against mine. “I love you too.” But still I doubted it..
