chapter 20: goodbye

time skip *

mel and the band were in an uber on their way to drop off mel.

seats:
malcom, finn
ayla, mel, jack

jack and mel were secretly holding hands while ayla's attention was diverted. jacks thumb slowly traced circles over mel's hand. ayla looked down at her phone and mel ripped her hand away but jack just slowly took her hand back in his and put his jacket over their hands.

mel thought of something she thought would be funny. she slowly untangled their fingers and put her hand on jacks knee, still under his jacket. he looked at her and smiled. she slowly started moving her hand upward. he didn't take notice till her hand kept moving higher and higher up his thigh. she giggled to herself and could feel his glare into the side of her head. he was shaking his other leg anxiously. her hand brushed a little too high if u KNOW WHAT I MEAN and he shook his leg hard and shouted, "okay! how much longer till the airport?"

mel bursted our laughing hiding her face in ayla's shoulder who was giggling too.

time skip * at the airport

mel was standing in front of the security gates anxiously watching strangers get their passport stamped and their tickets scanned.

she picked at her nails and chewed on the inside of her cheek, until she felt ayla rub her back, "your plane boards in 10, you should probably get there quick." she smiles very small. mel smiles and wraps her arms tightly around her cousin.

next she hugs malcom and ruffles his hair before hugging finn. next she hugs jack. it was a long hug. a suspiciously long hug for two 'friends.' once mel pulled away she was about to turn around to pick up her luggage but instead jack grabbed her shoulder and spun her around and kissed her.

the kiss was longer than the others and it was full of passion and love instead of alcohol. mel kissed back instantly and wrapped her arms around his neck kissing him harder. once they pulled away, the other three teens next to them looked as if they were in a state of shock, which they probably were.

mel looked down at the time of her phone and mumbled, "fuck." she kissed ayla on the cheek and ran down to the guards at the ticket scanner.

"what was that about?" the three teens hell to jack still looking confused.

he shrugged looking really sad. ayla stepped forward and hugged him. after they pulled apart they looked over to see mel still walking through the security line. before she put her stuff in the bins she turned around, got on her tip toes and smiled brightly, waving at her four friends she had to leave behind.
