Hidden Truths

Explanation

Melody POV
Yemoja was standing there with her arms crossed.

"We don't." Me and Levi said at the same time.

"So why would you be jealous that he likes me, you are the one that told me he likes me. What games are you trying to play?" Why would she think I was playing games, and what game would it exactly be?

"I don't know what game your referring to, but I am not jealous that he likes you. It is the friendship that he is giving you I'm jealous of, but since you were listening you should have heard his explanation as well." I let her know but she didn't seem to change her stance.

I don't understand what her problem is, it's not like this affects her in any way. Right?

"Melody can you give us a moment to talk?" Levi asked me and I nodded going in the house. I had things to do anyway, like tear apart my mother's office.

Yemoja POV

I honestly was feeling played, and I was upset. It wasn't because he had feelings for Melody it was more of the fact that she basically told me to pursue him knowing he had feelings for her. I don't understand what she was trying to do.

Levi took a seat on the steps and patted the spot next to him. I rolled my eyes but sat down in the spot anyway.

"Do you have feelings for Melody?" I asked him when he didn't say anything for a while.

"No I think I was telling myself I had feelings for her. Like she said we have a good friendship and I care for her deeply. I also was attracted to her because Melody is beautiful, smart, and very kind. We have been with each other for Five years, literally spent most of our time with each other. Then the day she asked me if I was attracted to her and I said yes, I also told her that I would never act on those feelings which was true. Melody told very brutally and honestly that she isn't attracted to me and only sees me as a friend. " Levi explained to me laughing towards the end.

"What made you realize you didn't have feelings for her?" I wanted to know all the details about this.

I am really feeling Levi but I will not pursue him if he has feelings for someone else, and that someone else being my sister out of all people.

"A little after we had that conversation. I did some deep thinking and realized that while yes I thought she was nice looking and was a great friend she was someone I could never be with in that way. Melody ways is something I could deal with as a friend but definitely not as a boyfriend. I knew there is things that I want from a relationship that she could never give me. I think I was just pushing all of that to the back of my mind  in order to make sense of something I was feeling. I love Melody, and I have never had any females friends to know what loving one feels like. I never knew what it felt like to love a woman outside my family or outside a relationship. I was confused but I understand now."

I never had a man that expressed and explained his feelings so deeply. Most dudes I know would have just told me a lie or try to flip the situation around but it seems he was being completely honest. I have to say it was very refreshing.

"Thank you for your honesty I appreciate it." I let him know and he turned to me and smiled causing my heart to speed up some. He was just so damn fine.

"I have no reason to lie to you. Also don't think Melody was trying to cause any issues, that is not how she is. The more you get to know her the more you'll see. She has the most genuine and innocent soul, she's also Jones and upfront so secret motives is just not something she has."
