i walked into the school fixing my top. it felt weird because i haven't worn one like this in a long time. Some of the glitter off of my shirt was falling off onto my jeans. i think it was the way i washed it.

i was walking looking down at my phone texting don, he said he was going to be here in 5 minutes and that we needed to talk about something. as i was texting back . someone yanked me to the side pushing me into the old chemistry classroom. i didn't get to see who it was because they grabbed me from behind pushing me in quickly. the lights was off. they looked the door before turning the lights on.
i almost jumped out of my skin when i saw Melo standing before me leaning against the door. he was the last person i thought would do this.
i stood there shocked before he started to talk.
MELO: hey iyla, i know we haven't talked in a long time, because... well. i'm kind of a sensitive guy and i was trying to figure somethings out... if that makes any since.
IYLA: O...OH okay um.. well i understand..i mean i know that..uh some times you can take things to heart i ...guess.
i said stuttering , i never thought i would be this nervous around him. i had totally forgot what being around him done to me. i mean for the past few weeks we barely talked let alone stayed in the same area unless we was in class and that wasn't even long .
he walked up to me, i froze instantly not knowing what to do. seconds later he had me pinned up against the wall breathing hard on my neck.
MELO: please don't be shy around me ma. I know what i did was messed up. but im sorry. i really do love and care for you . so can we at least be friends now until we can get back to were we used to be . being without you made me realize how much i need you and want me by your side. so if you need space ill give it to you. i just want us to be us again. plz? thats all im asking.
I didn't know what to say. he was so close to me .
IYLA:uhh... yeah .of..ff course melo, you know that i want this for us to because i love you.
i didn't realize it until now but. this time apart from melo did make me appreciate him more. it started to make me miss all the things we used to do and cherish the nights he would sneak into my room late just to sleep right through out the night.
We hugged and smiled at each other walking out the class , on our way out we literally ran into don, melo caught him before he fall. when he looked up at us he cracked a smile.
DON: well sis i see you already was working on what i wanted to talk to you about.
MELO: what you mean ?
melo asked confused, basically asking for both of us because i wanted to know too.
DON: don't play dumb i wanted yall to make up so yall could be friends again and work on getting back to the way things were.
