Melody

CONFUSED

DAVE'S POV
As much as i wanted to hit Alec straight in his throat last night . I didn't. A part of me felt that he really did mean the words that he said to Mel. I could sense the sincerity in his tone. I could also sense that deep inside Melody still had feelings for him and that made my heart hurt a little. Because the moment i'm starting to fall in love with this amazing girl right here someone wants to take her away from me and what hurts most is knowing that he might succeed doing that.

I felt a tilt shift of Mel's head on my arm. She was waking up.God! She was so beautiful.

''Hey sleepy head''I smiled casually not to make her realise that I've been up for a while and was staring at her.

''Hey. Oh my God. Please tell me I wasn't crying in your arms all night yesterday.'' She suddenly sat up

''Weeeell i would,
but i would be lying if i said you didn't do that.''

''I am so sorry you had to see me like that. Wait a minute if i cried that much last night that means'' she stood up and ran to the bathroom

After some few seconds i heard a scream coming from the bathroom. I hurriedly ran to her and bulged in.

''No noooo go away. I can't let you see me like this. Look at my eyes...... i look like a chameleon.'' She shouted blocking her face with a face towel

''You are so impossible. I thought you tripped or something.'' I laughed at myself for being so reflex and for Melody's ridiculous reason of screaming.

''Uugh just go get me some water my head freaking hurts.''

'' of course it would. I have never seen anyone drink that much in my entire life''. I said heading to the kitchen to get a glass of water with Advil.

I went back to the room and found Melody on the bed with the bedsheet covered to her face.

''And how are you going to take this?'' I held out the Advil tabs and the glass of water infront of her.

''Just keep them on the bed table and go make me something to eat''

''Even with the swollen eyes, you are still the most beautiful girl i have ever met.'' I found myself saying those words out of nowhere. And I didn't regret saying it.

''Come down if you're ready'' I said heading out of my room... yes Emma slept in last night.

''Thank you!!!''. I heard her shout from behind me.

I finished making a fast breakfast meal for the both of us and decided to text mom to know when she's going to come home .Well, she didn't come home yesterday. I heard there was a big fire accident in one of the Macdonald's restaurants. She must have been attending to the victims.

''I don't know sweetie, i guess I'm not gonna come home until tomorrow. They're still some people who haven't been attended to and some are frequently going into panic attacks''

I read her text and replied

''Do what you gotta do mom. Take care. Love you.''

I heard footsteps from behind me heading to the kitchen assuming it was Melody. She took her plate and a glass of fresh orange juice and came to sit next to me. I eyed her curiously

''How long are you gonna sit and stare at me like I'm America's next ugliest human being?.''

I let out a loud laugh

''Seriously Mel. Do you know that there are very few people who wake up with a bad hangover as yours, who cry almost the whole night and are still beautiful like the way you are right now ''

I could see the redness in her cheeks that she was trying hard to avoid

''Oh please, don't flatter me'' she said blushing

''So, do you wanna talk about what happened last night?'' I took the remote and turned on the tv just to act casual
