Just One Hug Thirty
Melody's POV:I was still frozen at my spot even though I can hear the clicking of heels coming closer. Before the person could've found me standing there and probably throw me out of the building, I opened the nearest door and went inside. Those were my first instincts.I closed the door behind me hearing the footsteps retreat. I took a sigh of relief but held it back in when I noticed where I was.Right in front of me was a puzzled looking Asher.I mean, I was kind of relieved that I made it to him without dying but as the situation sank in I realized that I hadn't been more nervous than this.Judging from the look on his face he looked pretty surprised to see me too."Melody? What are you doing here?" He asked with furrowed eyebrows.He probably must have thought that I wouldn't come, right? After all he asked me to come at evening not...night. But it wasn't my fault. If only I hadn't been stuck with that makeup artist.I fidgets with my hand on the door knob not sure what to say.
Just One Hug Thirty One
Melody's POV:Sometimes I wish a person had the full control of it's life in it's own hands. Wouldn't that be perfect? You decide your own future. You could've done anything thinking that the consequences were totally in your hands. Life would've been amazing."Hey Mel." Cameron said leaning on my desk as I placed the painting in a bag giving to the girl with the red hair."You look worked up, Cameron." I said looking at his sleepy eyes.It almost made me yawn looking at them."That's because I am worked up." He concluded.I wiped my hands on my apron and sat down on my chair blowing out a sigh."So I was just wondering...if we go out to a bar or something." He asked suddenly.I looked at him. I'm sure something was definitely wrong."Why would you want that?" I asked narrowing my eyes."Maybe that's how Daphne will come along too. She won't come if it's only me, you know." He added with sad eyes.He's such an actor."You're falling badly for her, Cam. It could possibly ruin you menta
Just One Hug Thirty Two
Melody's POV:Maybe I was too drunk that I was imagining him. Or how else would he be here? Maybe this was a dream after all."What were you doing with him?" He asked with a frown.Even if he was my imagination, I didn't want to lose him."He was fucking touching you, Melody. Why didn't you stop him?" He asked angrily.His grip around my waist was spreading the tingles throughout my body. I missed that. I wanted that."You're really here?" I murmured.My hand instinctively reached out and touched his face slowly. He was real. I could feel the same comforting presence whenever he was around."Of course, I'm here." He muttered, the frown still on his face.Normal Melody would've been embarrassed at this situation. But I wasn't. I touched his eyes slowly as a smile formed on my face."You aren't supposed to be with anybody else." He said leaning even closer."But I liked him." I mumbled.I don't even know why I said that. I guess my drunk self was too drunk to even realise that."No, you
Just One Hug Thirty Three
Melody's POV: I felt sunlight shining in my eyes making me open them. For a single moment, it felt like everything was spinning as I opened my eyes. I blinked them several times before I could finally make out the room I was in. It was my room. That wasn't the problem. The problem was my head, which was burning inside like it was on fire. I slowly sat up clutching my head. My head felt like it was a burning mess, like my brain had turned into jelly. Pulling my hair away from my face, I saw a paper on the side table with a glass of water. I looked at it for a while with a frown before picking it up. " I didn't left regretting anything that happened last night, if that's what you're thinking. I just had some things to do. Take the aspirin and the headache would be fine. I'll see you soon, angel." I looked at the words for a while before blowing out a small sigh. How did he know I was thinking that? I took the glass of water and gulped down the aspirin. I didn't know your head hu
Just One Hug Thirty Four
Melody's POV:"What is it?" Asher asked looking at my sudden change of expression.I looked at him abruptly as my heart raced. Taking a step back I looked behind him once again but couldn't see Tyler anywhere.I swear I just saw him right now."Mel, what's wrong?" He asked a bit worried now as he followed my gaze behind him.Maybe I was just imagining him."I...it's nothing. I just thought I saw someone." I said forcing a small smile on my face.He looked back at me with a frown that indicated he didn't believe me. I don't know why but all of a sudden this whole place and the people were making it hard to breathe."Is it the people?" He asked.You could almost see some of them trying their best to make out what we were talking about. I don't know why people can't mind their own business."I...think so." I lied looking anywhere but his eyes.I was thankful that he didn't seem to notice the hesitation in my voice. I didn't want to lie to him but it was for the best."Can we get away fro
Just One Hug Thirty Five
Melody's POV:I wished the time would stop when I was with Asher. However, it turned out to be quite impossible when Asher told me about his Canada concert."He'd be gone for a whole week and a half." I whined in the pillow.It sounded so lame as it was just a week but it seemed too long to me. I heard a sound of disapproval from Amelia's mouth at my whining."You can't sulk about it your whole life." She muttered.She had been busy since I had came in her room the next morning. It was some sort of poster she was making for an exhibition."I'm not sulking." I muttered.I'll just miss him. I just don't know how I'll go through a day without him."You can come with me." He said looking at me expectantly.That had took me by surprise. But he and I both knew that wasn't as possible as it sounds. I didn't even have a passport."I can't, Asher." I said sadly.He smiled with a shrug and pulled me closer to him."Doesn't matter. It's hardly a week and a half. I'll call you each day. Or every
Just One Hug Thirty Six
Melody's POV:I looked up at him as my breath suddenly got caught in my throat. As if sensing my sudden shock, Hazel licked my hand."Tyler?" I asked in almost a whisper.Part of me thought he couldn't be really here but the other part of me knew perfectly well that he was real. I did saw him before after all.He looked the same. He hadn't changed at all. For a moment I thought that I was dreaming this all. This couldn't be real. Those same light green eyes and that same smile.I swear it almost paralyzed me until Amelia came."Hey Mel, I jus- Oh! Hi." Amelia said as she came beside me looking at Tyler. "You guys know each other?"I looked at Tyler still speechless. I couldn't make myself say another word. Because it felt like my whole insides were turning."Yeah. I know Melody." He said with a small smile.I couldn't help but feel slightly panicked and nauseous when he said my name. He wasn't supposed to be here. How could he just say my name like it didn't matter?"Really?" Amelia a
Just One Hug Thirty Seven
Melody's POV:"Hm." I replied."You didn't even hear what I said." Asher said gently.I sighed and closed my eyes. He was right. I didn't even hear a single word he was saying. The thing was, now I wasn't sure what excuse to make up."I'm sorry." I murmured as my voice got muffled in my pillow.I could almost feel my heart lighten up as I imagined him smiling."Is something bothering you?" He asked.I almost told him everything about Tyler. I almost told him how much I hated Tyler being here. I almost told him to make me come there with him, out from here.Instead, I kept quiet."Mel?" He asked again.I closed my eyes and sighed."Things have happened." I said choosing my words carefully."What kind of things?" He asked confused.I looked at the ceiling as if it could give me some ways to answer that question."I'll tell you when you come back." I replied.I heard voices from the other hand which meant he was probably busy. I wish it wasn't like this."Do you want me to come back now?
