Hey! I'm really, really sorry for the long wait. Some stuff happened, but I'm back now. It's not the best chapter, but hopefully,  you'll enjoy it. :)

"Ok, girl. Get up." Melissa was startled by the voice. She was spending some time in her room, just listening to music, and didn't expect anyone to show up in her room. This was a pleasant surprise though. At Jordan's words, she smiled and sat up in her bed.

"First of all, hello." She told him. "Second, why would I leave this really comfortable bed? It's Saturday, that means no school. It's just me and my bed today. You're welcome to join though." She smirked.

Jordan rolled his eyes at the girl. Even though it sounded inviting, he had plans. He knew that Melissa loved her bed more than anything, and nothing could ever come in between that.

"We're going on a date. And the date is not going to be here, and we can't take your bed with us. So, get up and get dressed, please. I'll wait outside for you." Jordan walked to her bed and bend down to kiss her. The kiss only lasted a few seconds, but they both were smiling from ear to ear.

Jordan pulled away, but Melissa had other plans. She grabbed his shirt and pulled him back towards her and smashed her lips against his. This time, the kiss lasted longer and both of them didn't want to pull away. Eventually, they had to.

"I could do this forever," Melissa mumbled against his lips; her eyes still closed.

Jordan smirked at the girl in front of him. He agreed with her. He could do this forever as well. But right now, there wasn't time for it.

"As lovely as that sounds, I really need you to get up. We can continue this later. I promise. For as long as you want. Hurry up, I'll be in my car."

Melissa stood in front of her closet and had no idea what to wear. Was this a casual date? Should she wear a dress? She settled on a pair of black skinny jeans and a pink shirt. She quickly curled her hair and sprayed some perfume. She took her leather jacket and put her phone in the back pocket of her jeans.

Jordan's face lit up when he saw Melissa walking to his car. She was beautiful. And she was his. What a lucky guy he was.

"J?" Jordan snapped out of his thoughts. "Are you ok? I said your name a couple of times, but you were dreaming." Melissa asked him and put her hand on his thigh.

"I'm alright. Sorry. Just spaced out for a little. You ready?" He smiled and started the car. Melissa couldn't wait to see what Jordan had planned.

Twenty minutes later, Jordan stopped his car and got out to open up Melissa's door. He offered her his hand and she took it and got out of the car. They were at a lake and the first thing that caught Melissa's attention was a balloon attached to a bench.

"I wanted to do something special. I really hope you'll enjoy this." Jordan said mysteriously and led her towards the balloon. On the balloon was a little card with just one word.

Confused, Melissa took the card and read the word out loud. "Meeting."

"Ok, it's storytime now. I just want you to listen." Jordan explained and took her hand in his.

"When Asher walked towards our table, I didn't know that it would change my life forever. I just saw a new girl. I didn't know that you would become the most important person in my life. You fit in right away, it was like we were already friends for a long time. Everybody wanted to be your best friend, but you never settled for just one. You told us that all of us could be best friends. It was better to have 5 best friends anyway, instead of having just one. And you were right. You always are."
