Higher Love

Chapter 2 [Part 1]

Melissa woke up with no energy. It was like the universe had sucked her energy and just left her body lying on the bed.

"Blake." She whispered. She saw he wasn't waking up. So she got up from the bed, took some clothes and went to the restroom to change. She decided to wear sweat pants and a plain white t-shirt. She knew she had to wear comfortable clothes because flights weren't her favorite thing.

After she changed, she put on a little make up, and she put her hair up in a high pony tail. She got out of the restroom, she put on shoes and a cap and went to see Blake from the other side of the bed. She sat on the bed's corner.

"Blake. I'm going now." She said softly. Even though he treated her like garbage most of the time, she still loved him and she tried to be nice to him.

"Mmmhm." He said. Still with his eyes closed. "Baby, Can you take me to the airport please?" She said, putting her hand on his cheek. She was going to miss him.

He slowly opened his eyes, and waited until his sight adjusted.
"Sure." He said, rubbing his eyes. "I'll wait for you downstairs." Said Melissa, kissing his cheek softly.

She grabbed her suitcase, and her bag, and headed downstairs. She said goodbye to Otis and Milli and leashed Farley.

"Are you ready to go?" Blake said from behind Melissa, making her jump. "Uh- yeah..." She said, a little bit embarrassed that he scared her.

"Well then, lets go." He said. He grabbed the keys and opened the front door, stepping back, letting Melissa go first.

"Thanks." She said, smiling shyly.

The way to the airport was full of awkward silence. And Melissa always tried to end the awkward silences between them but this time she didn't. She wasn't in the mood.
Finally, they got there and Blake asked for permission to go with her through x-ray vision and then he would return when she went to the plane. After x-ray, they went to sit to a table near the gate.

"Blake. Please don't get mad. But... why have you been acting weird?" She said, looking at him straight into his eyes. He suddenly looked down to the floor.

"I- What do you mean?" He said. Still looking down.

"Ever since I came back from filming season 1, you've been cold with me. You haven't been acting like the Blake I know. Like the Blake I... fell in love with." She said.
Blake always tried to avoid the subject. But he finally gave up, and spoke.

"This is going to sound bad. But I-" He said, getting interrupted by an announcement.
"This is the last call to board the flight 456 from San Diego to Vancouver."

"This is my flight. And this conversation isn't over. When I get to Vancouver I'll call you and you'll need to tell me." She said, getting up. "Okay." He simply responded.
She grabbed her stuff and put Farley on the floor.

"I love you babe. See you in a couple of months." She said, giving him a kiss on the cheek. She started walking towards the line of people and waved to Blake. He waved back, with a guilty smile on his face.

What is he hiding? Melissa thought. She got her phone out and she saw she had a text from Chyler.

Chyler: Hey Mel! Do you want me to pick you up at the airport?
Melissa: Yes! Thanks Chy! ❤️ I'm boarding the plane now. I'll see you later. Love you.
Chyler: Love you too. Good luck!

A smile started to form on her face. Chyler was like a sister to her. She was so thankful she had met her. They were always there for each other and that was pretty amazing.
