Hubba Bubba

Chapter 2

Melody’s POV

Caramel walked away after my long lecture about the diabetes thing. The whole lecture was a lie. The only reason I made Caramel have diabetes is because I could’t think of anything else and at that particular moment I was thinking about Joel. I sighed heavily. That boy gives me really weird sensation… that came out wrong. He makes me go all dizzy and jelly and the time I was explaining to Mr Principal about the incident, I was thinking about him and how his aunty has diabetes and he goes and visits her every week, so sweet. Well I just said the first thing that came into my mind and the first person I could think of besides Joel which happened to be Caramel.

I went to art dreading this period, not because I hated art, it was because Joel was in Caramel’s math class this period and she keeps talking shit to him about him and e and he always comes out of the class red, with Caramel hot on his heels. Their relationship makes me jealous. Caramel can talk to him like they’re childhood friends and when I try talking to him I just end up talking some gibberish that he can’t understand and Caramel ends up pushing me away from him.

“Ms Sparks, do we have a problem?” Mrs Jol spoke making al eyes turn to me. I could feel the red creep up onto my cheeks. I shook my head no and started my painting which was shortly interrupted by the bell. I walked to library straight from class and picked up some cooking books that Mom needed and walked out, only to bump into someone.

“Ouch… shit… stupid heavy book and you to stupid person who bumped into me” I woke, rubbing my leg on where the heavy cook book landed.

“Sorry Melody.” I looked up to see a very flushed Joel. Shit. He looked so freaking cue when he’s blushing. I went into really land again, staring into his beautiful brown orbs. 

“Oh… Joel… um it’s kay…” I was red… really red, I could feel it.

“Oh shit. You’re blushing. Caramel told you didn’t she? She told you that I have wet dreams about you right? Shit. It’s not true, she just made it up and told me that she’ll tell you if I didn’t give her my pen. Shit.”

“Ummm… wet dreams about me…” I stretched. I’M GOING TO KILL CARAMEL! I was going to tell him that she didn’t tell me about that but he cut me of by saying,

“No,no, I didn’t mean it like that like yea I have dreams about you like who wouldn’t like your so hot like not like that hot but like pretty hot like your just like…”

“Caramel didn’t tell me anything” I cut him of.

His stilled. He looked like he would pass out. I wanted to end all this stupid stumbling of words and day dreaming about Joel. I wanted to stop seeing him with other girls. I wanted him to be mine and knowing Joel, he’ll never make the first step so I stepped forward and slowly planted my lips on his. He slowly came out of his embarrassed trance, like he was frozen and I melted him. He slowly started moving his lips along with mine and before I knew it, we were walking hand in hand towards his car, seeing as in I hadn’t brought my car today because Caramel drove today. Lucky, I thought. He opened the door for me and went to his side of the car and we went to my house. The drive was relaxing. He kept glancing at me, like I was a dream and I would jump out the door as soon as he walk up, nonetheless, his beautiful smile was plastered on his face through the whole way to my house.

“Well, this is me, umm, bye”

“Yea, see ya tomorrow…”

He sighed heavily. He walked me to the door and just looked at me.

“Melody, I don’t want to act like nothing is happening between us. Caramel tells me how stupid I am every day. She tells me that the whole world knows that we like each other but us. I don’t want to see you at parties with other guys eyeing you, I don’t want you to walk alone in the hallways, watching the other people kiss. I needed a push and you gave me a push today and I want to us to move forward so, umm, would you like, ummm, wanna go out with me… maybe?”
