Kissing Love Goodbye

Chapter Ten-Andrea's Dirty Mind

The next morning, Melinda got up, quickly showered and then went to go have breakfast and she found her mom at the kitchen table.

"Hey mom!" she said.

"You seem cheerful this morning." Beth said, happy that her daughter was smiling instead of sulking.

"Yeah, well, I feel cheerful," she said happily, grabbing a bowl from the cabinet and dumping cereal into it. She grabbed the milk and sat down at the table, across from her mother.

"So your midnight dates with Jim have been going well?" she said and Melinda chocked on the cereal she had in her mouth.

She coughed and then once she was okay she asked, playing dumb "What dates?"

"Oh, your sneaking out of the house last night and before that too." Beth said smiling.

"But how did you know?" Melinda asked in utter astonishment.

"Melinda, I'm your mother, I always know..."

"And you don't mind?"She asked nervously fiddling with her sthingy, stirring it around in her cereal.

"No, of course not Melinda. I'm glad you're having fun. Just, now you can use the door if you want..." Beth laughed.

"I guess..." Melinda said in mock disappointment.

"What's wrong?"

"Well now I don't get to sneak out...it was fun." She smiled and her mother chuckled.

"So, when do I get to meet him?" Beth asked.

"Uhhh.....tonight if he's okay with that." She said

"Alright." She said and she gave Melinda another teasing smile before she set off for work.

Once she was finished with her breakfast, she called Jim and he answered on the first ring. "Hey." He said and she replied

"Hi! I miss you already!"

"I miss you too," he said and he smiled.

"Oh, and by the way, my mom knew about me sneaking out the whole time."

"Really? Wow. How'd she take it?"

"She didn't even care, but she wants to meet you...tonight..." Melinda said and Jim knew she was praying he'd say yes.

"Yeah, sounds good," he said and Melinda retorted

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!!"

"Mel, calm down!" he laughed, she loved making him laugh.

"Okay, well I'm gonna go to Andrea's and I'll see you tonight okay?" she said

"Okay, bye Mel." He said.

"Bye." She smiled. She closed her phone and then got ready to go and see Andrea.

Once she got there, she practically ran to the elevator and then to her apartment. Andrea opened the door and she was still in her pyjamas.

"Hey," Melinda said walking into the apartment.

"Ummm hi Melinda. When I said for you to come over I meant as in later when I'd be awake..." Andrea said yawning.

"Uhhh, Andrea, it's eleven in the morning." Melinda said looking at her watch.

"Exactly....it's early!" she said and Melinda laughed.

"Wow Andrea. What time did you plan on getting up?" Melinda asked sitting down.

"Ummm like three?" she said and Melinda rolled her eyes.

"Wow. Did you not sleep last night or something?" Melinda asked.

"Yeah, watching scary movies..."

"Nice." Melinda commented.

"Hey, you were welcome to join me but you went out with Jim." She replied.

"Yeah, because I love scary movies." Melinda said sarcastically.

"Oh yes. They're your favourite aren't they?" Andrea teased.

"Oh, definitely." She took on the same tone of sarcasm as before.

"So, what did you and Jim do yesterday...wait, if it's mushy, don't tell me." Andrea said.

"Why not? Jealous?"

"Insanely. At least you have a guy..." she said and Melinda laughed. "Hey, so do you think Jim has any hot friends?"

"Andrea, are looks all you think about?"

"Well until I find something better in a guy than looks, yes." She said and Melinda laughed.

"Well, I could ask him if you want..."

"No, it's okay. I think I'm okay with being single for a bit..." she said and Melinda giggled. "Anyways, back to what you we were talking about before...anything of particular interest happen on your date?" Andrea asked.

"Particular interest?" Melinda asked confused.

"Oh, you know..." Andrea trailed off.

"ANDREA! No!!!!!!! Nothing like that!" she said and Andrea laughed.

"Why would you want to know that?" Melinda asked.

"Well, I like to be kept up to speed. Plus I'm your best friend..."

"For now..." Melinda joked.

"Anyways...go ahead." Andrea urged.

"One word...Josh."

"Wait...what happened with Josh?" Andrea asked.

"Well, he showed up and started talking about how he wanted me back...all useless words. He always said stuff like that to me when we were on the verge of a breakup. I could pretty much recite his little speech for him off by heart."

And Andrea smirked. "Wow. How did Jim feel about that?"

"Oh, I could tell he wanted to punch his lights out...but he held off, for me." Melinda said.

"Aww..." Andrea mocked her. Melinda rolled her eyes.

"Shut up!" and she glared at Andrea.

"What? When I have a boyfriend you can mock me okay? Let me have my fun." Andrea said and Melinda smiled.

"Yeah yeah..."

"Oh! And my mom knew the whole time about me and Jim. and she wants to meet him tonight" She said and Andrea smiled.

"Your mom's always one step ahead of you isn't she?"

"Yeah..." Melinda agreed.

"Oh, I know what's gonna happen next..."

Melinda laughed. "What?"

"Let me guess, she wants to meet him tonight and then after that, you and Jim are going to go to your room and you're going to-"

Melinda cut her off before she could finish. "Andrea!"

"Let me finish! After, you and Jim are going to go to your room and you're going to..... Say goodbye and he's gonna go home." Andrea said and Melinda rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, I'm sure that's EXACTLY what you were going to say."

"Melinda, I'm offended!"

"You should be!" Melinda joked.

"You're funny...NOT!" Andrea said and Melinda laughed.

"You too." She said and Andrea came over and hugged her.

"You know I only tease you because I love you right?" "Yeah..." she said and hugged her back.

"So, after tonight, you have to give me all the dirty details tomorrow...." Andrea said and Melinda grabbed a pillow off of the couch and wacked her in the head with it.

"Andrea! What is wrong with you?!" she laughed.

"It's a habit..." Andrea joked.

"Clearly! Andrea, I think you need medical help..." Melinda played along.

"Yup." Andrea said then unexpectedly grabbed the pillow from Melinda and hit her with it.
