-Melissa P.O.V-

Four hours pass and it lunch time. I walk with Gloria and all the way to the lunch area.

As we were getting there, I spotted Seth with Victor group and Steffany was hugging Seth as they were a couple. Inside of me got a little jealous but I don't know why. Seth is the creeper I been wanting to get away and the one that ruin my old life. Then why do I feel jealous?

"Hey Gwen, look who coming?" I focus back to reality and saw where Gloria was pointing at.

"Hey Gwen. Sup Step sis." Jose greets us and gave us a hug.

"Hey" Me and Gloria said.

"Ummm..... Gwen, can I talk with you privately?" Jose look at me and I felt nervous.

" I know when I'm not needed" Gloria said smiling and left to the group table.

"So, what you wanted to talk about?" I tried to avoid eye contact with him. Ever since he confess that he likes me more than a friend in the sleepover, it been weird to look at him.

"I wanted to know if you had any plans on Friday?" he rub the back of his neck and I could see sweat coming down his forehead.

"No not really"

"Then I was wondering if you wanted to see a movie with me?" Was he asking me on a date?

"Ummmmm...." I look around and I stop when I saw Seth looking this way. He eyes were changing from blue to black. Just like this morning.

"Sure?" I said more like a question.

"Ok then. It a date" he had a big smile and hug me.

I heard a low growl but I ignore it. Must be someone who has something stuck in their throat.

"Well better go with the group then" I said letting him go.

"Ok then. Let go" he pull my hand and lead me to the group.

After lunch was over, another two hours pass and finally school ended.

"So I was wondering what did my step bro ask you Gwen?" Gloria ask while we were walking toward my car.

"Oh, he just, you know....." I shrug my shoulder. I don't really want a lot of people to know about this small date. They might think it a big thing and say 'oh you guys make a cute couple' and stuff like that. I'm still not ready to be in a relationship after what happen with me and Jesus.

"Tell me. Please!" She pull my arms and pull out the puppy eyes.

"Fine. He ask me *cough* out *cough* " I tried to cover the big word.

"He what?" she said holding onto her ear.

"He ask me *cough* out*cough*"

"Without the cough please" she gave me a serious look.

"Ok. He ask me out"

"What!" she scream out.

"It no big deal. It just a movie trip and that all. Nothing big." I tried waking faster but she pull me back.

"It is a big deal! You and my step bro going out. You guys make a great couple!" that what I was worry about. "sooner or later, you two would be a couple then married and you would be my sister-in-law then-" she was talking on and on.

"Whoa! whoa! whoa! Hold up, nobody said anything about marriage."

"Well that further in the future but right now, my two best friends are going out" she said with a smile on her face.

"Gloria, don't take this to harshly but me and your step brother are not together. I'm not really ready to be in another relationship after the other one"

"Oh, ok" then her smile vanish into sadness.

"Well better go. Still friends?" I spread my arm for a hug.

"Ok" she made a small attempt for a smile and hug me.

I walk toward my car and turn it on. I look back to Gloria and saw she was talking with Seth. And he look kinda mad.

I drive back from the parking lot and all the way to home. I saw my dad car was in the garage. He never home early.

I walk in the house and saw dad talking on the phone.

"Yes. I know sir. I will work harder on Friday. Ok. Goodbye" then he hang up.

"Dad? Why are you home early?" I ask him.

"Umm... Melissa. I have some bad news." He patted the seat next to him for me to seat next to him.

I sat next to him in the sofa and he wrap his arm around me.

"I have some bad news for you. 1) Your grandma , my mom, had just past away this afternoon"

"No." I said. I felt a tear coming down my cheek.

My other grandma was so cool. She would listen to my problem when I was younger. She would bake cookies whenever we would visit and she was never those other grandma that just knit and play bingo all day. She would take me hiking in a near by mountain and teach me how to play poker. Sure she was crazy but I loved her for that.

"Yeah, I'm feel bad too. And the other bad news is the witness program called. They finally found where he is but don't know how to get him. They said he was sighted near here so I had to come home early today to make sure your ok" I look up at him and see fear in his eyes.

"Don't worry dad, I'm being secure of my surrounding." I felt a little bad for not telling him Seth is already here. But inside of me feel like not to tell and to keep Seth a secret.

"That good Mel. Well better get started on your grandma funeral. It next week." Dad then get up from the sofa and walk out the room.

Damn, first Seth came backs and my grandma is gone. Could anything get any worse?
