A/n: sorry about the last chapter…kinda angst…but it will get better I promise! But before it gets better, it has to get worse first! I am now up to 22 reviews. Whoo! A Big thank you to all of my reviewers! You guess are the best! Oh in this chapter, Melanie and Miley are going to be singing.
2 months went by since the break-up and Lilly had enough of Melanie's stubbornness. She hadn't left the apartment since the break-up. Lilly knocked on Melanie's door. "Melanie? Open the door, please. It's one o'clock in the afternoon."
Melanie lay on her bed, sleeping when she heard knocking on her door. "Go away!" she called out as she covered her head with her blanket.
Lilly rolled her eyes but walked in anyways. "Melanie? Come on out. This is getting ridiculous." The blonde said as she walked into Melanie's room and uncovered the brunette.
Melanie opened her eyes and glared at the blonde. "I told you last week to leave me alone, Lilly." She said as she sat up.
Lilly sat next to her. "Melanie, it's been two months. You need to get out and move on."
Melanie ignored her and looked away. "Just leave, Lils. I don't want to see you anymore…you're just a painful reminder of her." When the blonde didn't leave, Melanie snapped at her. "Go! I don't want you here! You're a damn annoyance!"
Lilly flinched at her friend's harsh words. She felt tears well up in her eyes as she walked out.
Melanie sighed and put on her radio on and started to sing along to Jordin Sparks and Chris Brown's duet, "No Air" as tears streamed down her face.
MelanieIf
I should die
before I wake
It's cause you took my breath
away
losing you is like living in a world
with no air
Ohhh…
Across town, Miley was listening to the same song as she sat in her room she shared with Jake. He was gone at the moment but he would back soon, so she decided to sing along to the song that made her heart ache for the girl she broke up with.
MileyI'm
here, alone
didn't want to leave
My heart won't move
it's
incomplete
wish there was a way
that I can get you to
understand
Both girls sang as tears streamed down their faces, both crying in sorrow for lost love.
BothBut
How
Do you expect me
To live alone with just me
Cause my
world revolves around you
its so hard for me to breathe
Chorus(both)

Miley couldn't take it any longer. She wanted, no, needed Melanie. Screw Jake. I love Melanie.
But he'll kill her if you stay with her. Her reasonable side argued.
But with out her I feel I can't breathe. I'm willing to take the chance as long as I can hold her one more time. She argued back as she got dressed and ran out the door, back to her lover's arms.
Miley
I
Walked
I Ran
I Jumped
I Flew
Right off the ground
To
float to you
There's no gravity
To hold me down
For real
Melanie sat on her bed, still depressed but decided enough was enough. I need to get out I need to forget. she thought as she walked over to her closet and got dressed. She pulled on jeans, a black button-up shirt and her Converse shoes. She walked out the door and began walking down the street, softly singing to herself.
Melanie
But
Somehow
I'm still alive inside
You took my breath
But i
survived
I don't know how
But i don't even care

Miley was running and running but stopped when she saw her love on the other side of the street. She was happy yet afraid. What if she wouldn't take her back? Miley shook her head and walked towards her.
No

No air, air ohhhh

No air,
and air No More
Uhh,

Melanie was just walking, minding her own business when a face in the crowd. Miley... She froze when she saw the girl who broke her heart walking over to her. It's just an illusion. I'm seeing things. She turned to walk back home but was stopped by the girl holding her back.
Its
No Air No Air
Heyyy..
Oooooo..
No Air
Oooooo..
Miley turned Melanie around and looked in her hazel eyes. "Don't leave." She said softly. "Please just listen to me."
Melanie pulled her arm away. "What else can you tell me that you haven't already said, Miley? You said you don't love me…for a week after you broke up with me, I've hoping, praying that you would come back to me, that you'd realize your mistake…but I was wrong. I just want to be left alone now."
Ooooohhhhhhh
Miley wouldn't take no for an answer. She pulled her into the alleyway and pushed her to the wall and kissed her passionately as her arms went around her neck.
Melanie's eyes popped out of the sockets as she felt lips on her own. She silently prayed that this wasn't a dream. Her eyes closed and she wrapped her arms around Miley's waist as she kissed her back. God I've missed this so much…
Tell
Me How im supposed to breathe with no air ohhhh
Can't live can't
breathe with no air
thats how i feel whenever you ain't
there
Its No Air No Air
Got me out here and the water so deep
.. So deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me … Without Me
Yea
if you ain't here i just can't breathe
Its No Air No
Air
They both pulled away, panting but despite them being out of breath, they both felt like they could breath again. Miley rested her forehead against Melanie's. They both opened their eyes. Melanie smiled, for the first time in two months, which Miley copied. "I've missed you Melanie."
Melanie hugged her to herself. "I've missed you too, Miles. But does this mean we're back together?" she asked fearfully.
Miley nodded but in her head, she was afraid for Melanie's life. I love her but I don't want her to die. She thought as she hugged the girl tighter but Miley noticed something when she looked over Melanie's shoulder. It was Jake Ryan with a gun. He raised it and shot it. Time seemed to move slowly as Miley turned them around and blocked Melanie from the bullet.
The bullet hit Miley in the chest. Miley felt pain before she slowly felt her body numb. She heard her name being called by Melanie and she saw Jake running off as sirens were heard in the distance. She felt herself slowly falling but was caught by Melanie.
Do
you expect me
To live alone with just me
Cause my world
revolves around you
it's so hard for me to breathe
Tell
Me How im supposed to breathe with no air ohhhh
Can't live can't
breathe with no air
thats how i feel whenever you ain't
there
Its No Air No Air
Melanie knelt beside Miley, holding the bleeding girl up. "Don't die on me, Miles. Come on. You're stronger than this. Don't leave me alone again." She pleaded as tears streamed down her face.
Got
me out here and the water so deep
Miley smiled weakly. "I-I'm sorry Mel…It's my time…You'll be fine without me." She said as blood dripped down her clothes.
Tell
me how you gonna be without me
Melanie shook her head as the sirens got closer. "No it's not your time dammit. I can't survive without you."
if
you ain't here i just can't breathe
Its
No Air No Air
No
air, air ohh
No air, air ohh
No air, air No air
No Air…
Miley's eyes closed by the time the ambulance came. Three EMTs ran out. "What happened?" one asked as they got Miley on a stretcher and put her in the vehicle.
Melanie whimpered. "A guy named Jake s-shot her…"
The EMT hugged her slightly. "She's going to be ok. Do you know her?"
Melanie nodded. "S-She's my girlfriend…can I go with her?" The EMT nodded and smiled as she helped Melanie in the back. Melanie sat next to Miley, who had an oxygen mask on. She felt tears well up in her eyes. Please god…let her live. I've lost her once, I can't lose her again.
A/N: Don't fear! I will not kill off Miley.
