You're My Missing Melody - A Greyson Chance Love Story

Chapter 6: You're Going Where?

Now, maybe it was just me, but I don't think I am alone when it comes to mentally freaking out when someone says that.

"Sure...what about?" I asked, slowly making my way over to the couch. Kendra patted the spot next to her. I sat down, looking over at her.

Kendra looked at me. "Well... you know how I've been working a lot lately..."

"Yeah?" I hate when adults do this. They stall before telling you what they wanted to tell you in the first place... seriously? Just tell me.

"Well... they want me to go on a business trip to Florida," She said. My eyes went a little wide.

"Florida?" I asked. "So, what, I have to stay here... alone?"

Her gaze went down to the floor. "Yeah..." She looked back up at me. I bet she could tell I was surprised, because I bet you anything my facial expression showed it.

"I trust you, Melody," Kendra went on, putting a hand on my shoulder. "I know you won't cause any trouble, or cause that much damage.."

"Yeah, but Greyson might.." I mumbled under my breath.

"What was that?"

"Nothing."

Kendra looked at me for a moment, then shook her head a little and smiled.

"I talked to Lisa and Scott about the trip, and they will be looking out for you while I'm away."

I nodded my head. Kendra explained to a little more on the trip, saying how to call her if there was an emergency, she was leaving me $1,000 dollars for food and such, blah blah blah.

"When do you leave?" I asked.

"I need to be at the airport in about 2 hours." She replied, getting up off the couch, smoothing out her dress.

A confused look struck her face. "Why did you decide to tell me two hours before you leave?"

She laughed a little. "I didn't really know how to tell you."

"You just had to say "I'm leaving for 2 months on a business trip. Lisa and Scott will watch you. Here's some cash, behave yourself!"

We both laughed, and she gave me a quick hug before going off to her room to pack.

Just as I was heading towards my room, I heard a knock on the door. Raising my eyebrow, I made my way to the door and opened it... to be tackled in a hug.

"Melody, I missed you so much!" Greyson screamed. I laughed, hugging him back.

"You saw me like an hour ago?" I replied, laughing more.

"But that's too long!" He yelled, making a pout face, which made me giggle.

I then realized the position we were in.

"Umm.. Greyson?"

"Hmm?"

"Get the heck off of me?"

He laughed. "Oh... right." He climbed off of me, and extended his hand to help me up. Gladly, I took it, dusting off my shorts. We both laughed for a minute, before we made our way to my room.

Greyson flopped on my bed, screwing it up, which made me just shake my head and smile. I sat down in a bean bag chair that was in the corner of my room.

"So, Kendra's going out of town..." I said, breaking the awkward silence that lingered in the room. Greyson looked over at me, his eyebrow raised.

"Oh really?" He asked. "And why is she going out of town?"

"She's going to some business trip in Florida... I don't know."

He nodded his head. "So, you have the whole house to yourself?"

I nodded. "Basically. Kendra talked to your parents, and their suppose to watch over me while she's gone."

"Oh, we're so having a slumber party!" Greyson cheered in a frilly voice, hopping up and down on the bed, squealing and clapping his hands. I let out a loud laugh.

"Yes!" I yelled, leaning over and high-fiving Greyson. We both fell in a fit of laughter.

"Wait.. would your parent's allow us to do that? I know Kendra wouldn't care, but..."

"Melody, it's not like we're gonna have sex or anything."

"Damn, my plan is ruined!" I yelled, snapping my fingers and pouting. My act didn't last long though because I fell over laughing.

"I'll talk to my parent's, but I seriously bet you they won't care."

"Have fun with that." I said, getting up and walking over to the bed, and tackling Greyson down to the bed. He looked up at me and laughed.

"What are you doing exactly?" He asked me. I smiled.

"I don't know, I wanted a hug," I said, the smile never leaving my face. "You're comfortable by the way."

Greyson let out a chuckle, then wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into a hug. We both lie there for a minute, just embracing each other... until Greyson took control and rolled us over, making him on top.

"What makes you think you can pin me down?" I asked, looking up at him.

"Because I'm Greyson Chance, and I do as I please!" He declared. We both laughed a little, but the laughter died down when I got lost in his eyes. He seemed to get lost in mine too. His eyes were so intriguing, so dark, so mesmerizing...

Greyson's head started to lean down. Oh my God, was he going to kiss me? I didn't care at that point, I let my eyes close. Just as our lips were about to touch...

"Melody? Where are you?" Kendra yelled from somewhere out in the hall. Both Greyson and my eyes snapped open, and Greyson rolled off of me. We both shot up, sitting upright. We both just looked at each other for a moment, before I let my head face the floor, letting a blush appear on my cheeks.

I heard Kendra's voice from the doorway. "Come on, Melody, we- oh, hello Greyson."

I looked over to see Greyson flash a smile and wave. Kendra directed her attention to me again.

"I have to get to the airport, you want to go?"

I looked over at Greyson, my eyes asking if he wanted to go with us. He shrugged. "Sure,"

Kendra smiled at both of us. "Good, now I have 2 extra people to help me carry my bags to the car!"

Greyson and I both groaned, but ended up laughing (There's a lot of laughter in this chapter..) out the door.

"Now, promise me you'll be on your best behavior while I'm gone," Kendra said, her hand on my shoulder. She was about to get on her flight, and we were saying our good-byes. Greyson was next to me, playing with his Blackberry.

"Kendra, I promise you I'll be fine, don't worry about it,"

Kendra smiled and pulled me into a hug. "I love you,"

"Love you, too."

Then, Kendra grabbed her carry-on luggage from the floor, and walked towards the departs after waving one last time.

Once she was past the doors, I turned to Greyson.

"What do we do now?" I asked him.

"Right now, we call my mom to come pick us up."

"Greyson... our buildings 5 minutes away by walking.

"I know... but I'm too lazy to walk."

I laughed at him, then lightly punched him in the shoulder. Rubbing the spot where I punched him, she dialed his moms number on his phone.

It was gonna be a long summer with this boy. Good thing I like him...
