"Don't worry," I said into Mel's hair and she sniffed.

"No one wants us together," she muttered.

"Tony, Noah, maybe Jenna, and probably my family do."

"Does your family even know about me?"

"No, but I'm sure they'd love you. You are a nice girl."

She pulled away and we sat on her bed.

"Are you still going back to Doncaster?" she mumbled.

"I don't know. I would love to but I don't want to leave you," I sighed.

"Melissa, open up. I know you're in there," Toni yelled from outside. Mel pushed herself away from me.

"I think it's okay if he comes in," Mel said. I nodded. Toni was cool, he didn't mind us being together.

Mel walked over to her door and opened it.

"Aww are you okay?" he asked pulling her into a hug.

"Hey, Louis... how'd you get in here?" he quietly asked pulling away from Mel.

"Tree and balcony," I replied and Toni smiled.

"You guys are so cute," he laughed.

"Lower your voice. No one knows he's here!" Mel scolded.

"I'm sorry," he mumbled.

"Melissa, who are you talking to?" I heard Mr.Fuentes ask. My eyes widened and Toni pushed me outside onto the balcony.

"I was talking to Toni," Mel said and I heard footsteps in the room.

"Okay. Melissa you can't date that peasant. I want you to marry Harry," he scolded.

"You can't force me to! I am an adult and I know what I'm doing!"

"You're so stupid and childish. You don't know what's best for you and I do!"

"Dad leave her alone!" Toni yelled. I coughed. Oh god. I fucked up.

"Who was that?" Mr.Fuentes questioned.

"I don't know what you are talking about," Mel said.

"I heard a cough. I am not stupid."

"That was me," Toni said.

"No it isn't." I heard footsteps coming closer to the balcony and the door opened and he saw me.

"Louis! Get out of here! You have absolutely nothing to do here!"

"Mel wants me here," I said.

"This is my house. Don't make me call the pol-"

"Stop it! I love Louis and you can't change that!" Mel said walking next to me and she tangled her fingers into mine.

"Mel," he warned.

"I will leave," I said giving Mel a -don't-worry look.

I went to my home and I found Noah sitting on the couch.

"Noah?" I say next to him.

"Hey, where were you?"

I told him everything.

"Shit, that must be rough," he sighed. There was knocking on the door and Noah got up to open it.

"Oh, hey Melissa." I saw Mel walk in after greeting Noah and she hugged me.

"I have a solution," I said.

"What is it?" she sniffed.

"Lets run away. Far where no one can find us. The three of us," I said.

"Louis that will be tons of money," Noah said.

"Don't worry, I got money," Mel said.

"You shouldn't pay."

"But I want to. I have extra money that isn't needed for anything else."

"Fine, but we will use our money too," I sighed.

"I have a plan," Noah started.

(A/N) I'm so sorry this is short :( I felt the need to update and I wrote this really quickly.
