Tyler's Perspective

She had came to the park that we used to play together when we were children. She sat on a bench with her hands in her face. She had tear stains on her face and her tears were falling through the cracks of her fingers. Her mascara dripping down her cheeks.

The half blonde started wiping her tears away, clutching her phone in her hand and looking at Ashley's pictures from Instagram. She chuckled lightly, and then sobbed again.

I sat down on the bench beside her. She noticed me sitting there, and quickly wiping her tears away again.

"What are you doing here, Tyler?"

I straightened my posture, and begin the talk.

"Melanie, I've known you back when we were kids. I know that you wouldn't have done anything to anyone, especially someone you don't know."

She sighed, "But Ashley..."

"I know its hard, but right now, you have to get through it. Ashley is irrelevant for right now." I say, comforting her.

"She was everything, Ty. I love her so much, and she doesn't believe me."

She starts crying again, so I go in for the hug and she cries on my shoulder.

Ryan saw us and walked over. I have no clue how he got here, his house is like two miles away.

Ryan look at me, and I shook my head slightly.

He mouthed,"What's worng."

I replied with, "Ash"

He made and 'O' shape with his mouth, and then nodded.

Melanie let go of me and looked up at Ryan.

"Hey, Melanie. " he waved.

She sniffled and in a small voice, said,"What are you doing here."

Ryan shrugged, "I was in the neighborhood, and stuff. So umm... yeah."

Ryan stared at his feet, unsure of what to do. Melanie smiled a little bit.

"Well... I appreciate it, Ry." Mel says.

"Lets go grab a milkshake or something. " I say.

Ryan clears his throat and says," I'm kinda... um... lactose intolerant. Yeah, that."

I shrug, "Smoothies?"

Melanie smiled and nodded. Ryan said a quick sure.

We all went to a small cafe and ordered some drinks. Mel and Ryan sat at a booth, sipping on our smoothies.

We left to go back to her house when some random people saw us walking around with Melanie, and they told us that she was the person from Twitter.

Ryan was confused, before realizing what happened. "Um... could you please leave us alone?" I ask.

They glared at Mel, before leaving. I went to go comfort her again, but she shook her head.

"I don't have the time to care about those shitty fuckers." Mel said, with confidence. She lifted her head high and walked forward.

Ryan grinned, "I like this side of her."

We followed her, and continued chatting about everything except for the chat and Ashley.

"Ms. Jackson is soooo cool though. She is like, effing chill with us." Ryan rambled on about something our teacher said.

Suddenly there was a ding.
