"Mel! Mel!" Allie yelled. Melani turned around to see her friend sprinting towards her "Guess what I did" she said smiling
Mel sighed "What did you do Allie?" Melani said smiling "Oh and before I forget, I made sure Bradin got a tie that matched your dress"
"He's what I wanted to talk to you about" she said smiling "I walked into him on the beach Friday night…"
"Walked into him?" she said looking at her unbelievingly
"Honest, I was thinking about something and walked straight into him. Anyway, we started talking and…" she trailed off
"Oh no, not and…" she mocked "Allie what did you do to him?"
"What makes you think I did something" she said innocently
"Because I've known you since 6th grade. Tell me Al, what did you do? Since that's obviously what you came here to tell me"
"We went to third. And you said he wasn't like that. Trust me, he's like that" a smirk spread across her face
"Wow. I guess I don't know him as well as I thought. I'm happy for you Allie, are you officially dating now, I mean since you pretty much screwed him"
Allie cast her glance down "No" she said quietly
"Al, tell him you like him and save your heart the ache. I'm sure if he's willing to go to third with you, he likes you."
"I will, thanks Mel. I totally owe you." She gave her a quick hug and ran down the hall toward her class
Melani continued down the hall to where Bradin and Kelli were standing talking "Hey Mel" Kelli said
"Hey Kel" she replied "Brae, can I talk to you for a minute?" she said.
Bradin could tell there was something wrong "Sure" he said, the two walked to the parking lot, where no one was
"When were you planning on telling me?" she said angrily
"Tell you what?" he said confused
"I believe you said that you had 'just another crazy night on the beach' on Friday, care to elaborate?" she said sternly
"She told you didn't she" Bradin said, noticing the anger in her eyes
"She tells me everything, but that's not the question at hand. The question is why didn't you tell me?" she said, quite irritated
"Because I didn't think it was something I needed to share with you" he said, getting frustrated himself "Beside, you slept with James, so don't act like you're the victim here"
"Yeah, he's my boyfriend; I'm supposed to do that. Unlike you, who just goes and hooks up someone purely out of convenience. At least I have a reason to" The anger was bottling up inside of her now but Bradin couldn't tell
"So I have to tell you everything, but you can tell me only what you want to. That's bull Mel and you know it"
"Well, you don't have to worry about telling me anything anymore. Go find Allie, I'm so done with you" she said angrily, and stormed off. Bradin took a moment to process what happened, then walked back into the hallway. The first sight he saw let him know that Mel was seriously pissed at him. She was literally hanging off James' neck with her tongue halfway down his throat, or so it seemed. Bradin rolled his eyes and walked away.
Kelli noticed and ran after him "What happened? You go into a fight didn't you, that's soo cute!" she swooned
"It's nice to see that you find two people being unhappy cute Kel" he said, looking at Mel "Not that she looks unhappy"
"Sorry Brae, she's pissed, why else would she be doing that?" she motioned to her direction "She's doing it because she knows it'll bug you. Just let her do it, then apologize"
"I'm not going to." He said defiantly "Two can play this game" he said smiling, and walked toward the quad
Melani walked into the quad for lunch, her arm around James' waist Take that Bradin, this should teach you to treat me like I don't matter she thought. She looked around the lunch area and spotted him, but not the way she wanted to see him. Allie was sitting on his lap, feeding him.
"Wow, she really is a slut isn't she" James said, pointing to them
"It takes two" she replied smiling smartly
"What did the two friends get into a fight?" James said mockingly
"Shut it ok." She replied "Do you want to go do something on the beach; I don't feel like eating right now"
James smiled, "Whatever you want baby" he replied, and led her to the stairs to the beach, but before they got there, she turned around and passionately kissed him, wrapping her arms around his neck. Caught up in the moment, he swept her off her feet and carried her down the stairs
Bradin turned just in time to see them. Damn, he thought me being with Allie doesn't even phase her. How can she have this hold over me, but I have no control over her. I should just apologize. A million other thoughts ran through his head as Kelli came and sat down next to him. He could tell Kelli really wanted to talk to him "Do me a favor babe" he said to Allie "Grab me a Gatorade for practice" he pulled out a dollar and handed it to her
"Anything" she said, and skipped off to the caf.
"Wow, your plan seems to be working" Kelli said mockingly
"Fuck off Kelli" he said angrily, still looking at the stairs to the beach
"Wow, I'm going to pretend you didn't just say that to me, because if I don't I might have to slap you. Anyway, it does bug her to see you with Allie, I just thought you should know. Hence the fact she's hanging off of James, she needs to do something to keep her mind off you. Gotta run, just think about that, k?" she got up and promptly left, leaving Bradin in a state of confusion.
