"You sure you wanna go through with this, Mel?" Nathan asked, an eyebrow raised.
"Of course," Melissa answered, sitting down next to Nathan on the log. "I thought it out. It'll work."
"Yeah," Nathan said nodding. "It'll work. But... are you sure about... what we're going to be doing? I mean, what if someone else sees us?"
"Oh well." She said smiling a little. "I'm pretty sure Taylor and Daley will know what I'm doing. I mean, they're girls. We have a secret language."
Nathan laughed. "Alright, alright. So when is this whole plan being put into action?"
"Not sure yet. I guess the next time we see Jackson or something."
"Alrighty then. When we see Jackson."
"Which is... right about now." Melissa said, nodding in a direction behind Nathan. Nathan started to turn to look, but Melissa stopped him. "Don't do that! He'll get suspicious!"
Nathan raised an eyebrow. "The things I do for you..."
Melissa smiled. "Alright, just follow my lead."
As Jackson got closer, Melissa winked at Nathan and said, "Nathan, I don't like Jackson anymore. Why won't you believe me?"
Nathan immediately caught on as Jackson stopped in his tracks a few feet away, hoping that maybe he had heard wrong. "I don't know, maybe because you've had a crush on him for almost as long as we've been on this island?"
Melissa shook her head. "Okay, that's true. But I've found someone I like better." She leaned closer.
"Really?" Nathan asked, raising an eyebrow and leaning in closer, as well. "Do tell."
"How about I show you?" Melissa smiled a coy smile and kissed Nathan on the lips. She opened her eyes in time to see Jackson stalking away from them, his hands balled into fists.

I'm dead. I've died. And I must be in hell, because nowhere in heaven would I have ever had to see that.
Jackson was pacing back and forth in the jungle, hoping that maybe, just maybe, he was crazy and he didn't really see what he just saw. But there was no point; the kiss kept replaying in his mind; play. pause. rewind. play. pause. rewind. And it refused to be stopped.
He lay down, trying not to focus on the fact that the ground was covered in leaves, grass, dirt, and bugs.
She said she liked me. She did. But apparently, not anymore. What did I do wrong?
He closed his eyes and hit the ground with his fists. I should go back there and beat the crap out of Nathan, that's what I should do... no. He didn't do anything wrong.
This was Melissa's fault. I mean, it's her fault that she doesn't like me anymore. It's her fault that she kissed Nathan. It's her fault that my heart's in a million tiny pieces...
Jackson got up and started walking back to where he saw Nathan and Melissa kiss. I should go talk to her.
As he approached, he heard them talking and shrieking with laughter. He hid behind a tree, away from sight.
"That was awesome!" Melissa said, in between giggles. "Did you see the look on his face?"
Nathan chuckled. "I thought he was going to murder me or something for kissing you." He chuckled again. "He should be yours in no time."
Melissa smiled shyly. "I hope so."
So that's what this is about! Jackson thought, seething with anger. She was trying to make me jealous! Well, on one hand, that means she still likes me. Jackson's heart leapt at the thought. But on the other hand, I can't let her get away with this. I mean, she hurt me a lot. Hmm... revenge? I like it.
As if on cue, Taylor came by and smiled coyly at Jackson. "Hey, Jackson!"
Nathan and Melissa turn around and saw Taylor and Jackson standing a few feet away, half hidden behind a tree. Melissa's face turned white. How long has he been there? Did he hear everything?
Jackson turned to Taylor, who was smiling at him. Without a thought, he leaned down and kissed her.
