Sorry for the awful title, and thx for reading my book

Melody:
Summer break is finally here. I wake up at 7:30 sharp. I go through the my phone looking at all the things I have to do.
-get groceries
-coffee with besties at 2 pm
-meeting at 3 pm
-shopping

I live in a pretty big house. We are rich. I have everything I could ever need, but I don't over spend like the jerk face that lives next door. Blake William Black. You might be wondering how in the world do I know his middle name, for starters our parents were pretty close when we were younger, and Blake and I were like best friends. Well until he dumped me as a friend. God who knows why.
I pull out a simple jumper. It's blue with some patterns. I grab a white purse, throw some makeup, my phone and keys into it. I run downstairs and see a note from my mum. My dad just disappeared one day and never came back, sure I am upset but I push my feelings aside and put on a brave face. I read the note.

Morning love,
Taking your sisters out today, going to be back late.
Love mum

I only have one sister but in our family we consider dogs as siblings
I grab a fruit salad that Anne our maid made for me.
"Anne I going out for groceries"
"You don't have to do that" Anne says, she is getting a little older so my family and I try not to give her too much work
"No no I insist, but if you don't mind can you please bake something for me" I say licking my lips
"Of course sweetie" she replies and walks away
I run out to my car, well one of my cars. I drive to the store, listening to P!nk and Imagine Dragons the whole way.
Looking at my list.
-bananas
-pickles
-Oreos
-Sprite
-sparking water
-chocolate (for ur time of the month"

Jeez mom, you really had to write that. I laugh to myself.
I crash into something.
"Damn woman watch where your going"
"I am so sorry" I say looking up.
Looking into the blue eyes for Blake freaking Black
"Hey Melody" he smirks
"Hi Blake" I mumble and walk away
"Why so grumpy" he ask
"Why do you care?" I snap back 
Something flashes across his face, but he quickly covers it up.
"I don't" he says, grabbing my jar of pickles and throws it onto the ground. Walking away.
I look down at the puddle of glass, pickles and pickle juice.
I hate Blake.

Blake:
I threw the pickles on the ground and walk away. I see anger, sadness and confusion flash across her face.
I feel guilt inside of me.
Melody and I use to be best friends, then I told her we can't be friends anymore. Why, I don't really know. Melody treated me like a brother, it guess I didn't like that. I wanted more. She was my first crush, well until now. When she laughed earlier my heart swelled. That's when I knew the stupid crush was back.
I turn back and decided to go and help her.
When I get there. I see Jake Parker help her
"Don't cut yourself" he says
"Don't worry I am fine" she reassures
She picks up a piece of glass
"Ouch" she says clutching her hand. Blood gushing out of it.
"Are you okay" Jake asks
She nods
"What couldn't you be more careful" I shout
They turn there heads to us
Anger is lurking in Melody's eyes
"Well if you didn't act so repulsive I wouldn't have cut myself" she defends
"Come on Mel" Jake says
Melody doesn't do a thing
"Let's get you cleaned up" Jake says trying to pull melody away
I walk away, not looking back. My anger boiling
My self hate growing.
