Chapter 4:
||Max's POV||: I climb onto the magic carpet and fly away to the sky. I fly to Melissa's house and spot the terrace to her room. Her curtains aren't even closed, leaving it visible for me to see her sleep on that little bed.
She's crawled up in a ball, with the blanket over her back. It actually looks cute! Then, Alexandria comes into her room. I fly quickly to hide. But still try to find a spot where I can see things clearly.
"Melissa," She says, shaking her shoulders, "Wake up! It's a Saturday so you can roam around!" Melissa easily rises and flips her brown curls away from her face.
She stretches her arms and grimaces at Alexandria. She then falls back to her sleep.
Alexandria shrugs and says, "Ok, but it's a beautiful day outside! I suggest you get some fresh air." She then leaves her room, closing the door behind her.
Melissa then gets up and turns on her iPod player, starts looping songs, like Should've Kissed You by Chris Brown. She then break dances a little and then stretches out her legs and arms.
I giggle a little to myself. This is really cute to see her like this! Melissa then flinches and looks out the window. She puts her palm to her mouth, realizing she just danced in her room, visibly.
She walked to the windows and closed the curtains.
A few minutes later, she opens them dressed up nicely in black Chachi pants, a blank tank top with my jacket over it. She smiles and twirls in my jacket.
She grabs her iPod and then was about to head out. I jump off from the carpet and land on the terrace. I knock on her glass sliding door and she turns around.
She smiles so sweetly and opens the door. "How did you get up here?" I look around to try to find something that can make up for my reason. "I took the stairs!" I answer.
"You really got to put the latch down to extend the staircase?" She asked. I nod my head and said, "And then I rearranged it back together."
She nods her head and said, "Ok then..." We then go inside to walk downstairs. Before i leave the door, I quickly swipe my wand out and wave it to make the carpet fly back home.
I then kept walking behind her side. I grabbed her hand and held onto it.
I ask her, "Hey, what happened that fishtail braid on you that I used to see?" She chuckles and said, "I'm just too lazy to braid my hair at the moment!" I shake my head and pat the edge of her bed, tell her to sit down. She did and I sit right behind her.
I brush her hair with my fingers and split it into two. I start beaiding her long soft brown hair, forming it to a fishtail braid. Ten minutes later, I put it on her left shoulder and handed her a hand mirror.
Her mouth opens in surprise and she says, "Max! I like it, how did you know how to braid a fishtail like this?" I shrug and say, "Well, one time I lost a bet to Alex so I had to braid her hair for a whole month." She smiles and kisses me, whispering in my ear, "Thank you!"
We go downstairs, I then stop her from taking any other step downstairs and wrap my arms around her.
She quietly squeals and looks up to me. I kiss her neck and then let go of her.
There, I see Alexandria, grabbing her purse. She looks up at me and says, "Why hello there!" She looks at Melissa, signaling her trouble.
"Alexandria, this is my... Boyfriend.." Melissa says. I can hear Alexandria gasp but stay calm. She then comes to me and gives me a hug. "Well then," She says, "This is so cute! But how are you going to tell Ian?"
Ian, the over-protector of the family. He is also basically like the father of the family. Ever since Melissa's mom died, her father then vanished and disappeared. Melissa told me that he thought he wasn't fit up to take care of three children by himself.
I can feel Melissa, squeezing her hand on mine. She's getting nervous, I can tell.
"I don't know," She said, "But I'm just not gonna tell him now!" Alexandria winked and said, "Smart!" She tousled her hair and asked me, "So what's your name?"
"Max Russo." I say. She smiles and points to the door. "You guys are free to go! Just be back home around 9!"
Melissa and I run to the door and Melissa said, "Clear!" We close the door behind us and walk through the park to the Waverly Substation.
We arrived and lead Melissa upstairs.
We go to the kitchen so I can make her breakfast. I cook her eggs and bacon with a side of hash browns, like how a diner would serve. She smiled and said, "Aww! Thanks, Max. Here, half it with me!" I then grab a fork and eat with her.
We sit side by side, with my arm around her. This is how I would want to spend my morning with her!
||Melissa's POV||: After we ate, I volunteered to wash the dishes. I then lean across the table and give him a passionate kiss. He takes my hand and comes close to me.
All of a sudden, he bends down and hoists me up over his shoulder. I would squeal but I don't want him to stop being this sweet...
He throws me onto the couch and starts to play wrestle with me. He's so strong with his arms. He pins me down to the couch so easily! I start panting because I can't handle his strength.
He and I laugh as we wrestle each other and then he leans down and kisses me. I take my jacket off, since it already feels so hot in the room. I hear him whistle and I throw the jacket at his face.
I roll my eyes and just went to sit on his lap. His arms wrap around my side and my thigh. He keeps his breathe near my neck, whispering, "You're safe in my arms."
I smile, then kiss his cheek gently and watch tv with him. I then hear footsteps coming from downstairs. It's Harper!
She spots us and says, "Aww! You guys are going to be together forever!" max then looks at me with a smile, holding onto my hand. He wants to be with me forever? How sweet of him!
Harper comes over to us and asks, "Should I take a picture of this whole thing to put in a little scrapbook?" We both raise an eyebrow and tell Harper, "We don't have a scrapbook!"
Harper flings her hand in the air and says, "Ah, then I have one for you! Here, Max, do you have a camera?"
Max hands her his cell phone camera and she takes a picture of the two of us. She then said, "Aww! I wish Zeke was like this to me!" I smile slightly and give her a look where I just want to be alone with Max. So does he!
Harper then hands Max the cell phone and then leaves. He shows me the picture and I comment, "I actually like that picture of us!"
He shrugs and says, "Well hey, maybe this whole scrapbook thing can work for us! Would you want to keep it?" I gesture my arms with a sigh and say, "Well I don't know! Maybe we should keep it in a secret place."
"My room?" He asks. I nod my head and Harper comes back, holding a red book in her hands.
She hands it to me and says, "Here you go! You can start now on your very own scrapbook together!" I smile and give Harper a pleasant hug. "Thank you, Harper!" I say.
"Oh you're so welcome," She says, "Max, she's a keeper! Don't loose her!" I let go and walk with Max. We head upstairs and print out the photo. There was also an additional of me and him. But, this one's of me sleeping?
"Max," I say, "Was this from the other day?" He nods his head guiltily with an evil smile. I nudge him on the chest and he lands in his room.
He pulls me in and closes the door behind me, kissing me passionately. I'm already begging for air but he just won't stop until the next minute. He let's go, knowing that I needed air.
I shiver, for the fact that the temperature here is friggin cold! I rub my arms for warmth. Max wraps his arms around me and seats me on the edge of his bed. He gets up and hands me a black sweater. I put it on and it may be a little baggy but it fits fine. "Thanks!" I say sweetly.
I then see something in his closet, hiding under a pile of clothes. I get up and pick it out and find a ukelele. I hand it to Max and he asks, "What?"
He sits down cross-legged on the floor, holding onto the ukelele. I lay down with my stomach flat on the ground and my feet dangling in the air in back of me. I lean on my knuckles and have my elbows stand on ground.
"Sing to me," I say, "Even if you're terrible!" He chuckles and says, "I can't!"
"Then why is there a ukelele in your room anyway?" I ask. He shrugs and begins to tune his ukelele. He strums and sings me a lovely song from his heart. His voice may be a little rusty but his heart sounds so pure.
When he finishes, I clap and comment, "You were great! Why are you so afraid?"
He shrugs and says, "I don't want to make a fool of myself around a pretty girl!" I blush and kiss him on the cheek. I whisper, "You never make a fool of yourself! No matter what you do."
He smiles and puts the ukelele away. He then cups half of my face and kisses me. I close my eyes, feeling as if time just stopped for me. Our tongues twist for once but I let go.
This kiss was long, gentle, and sweet, once we let go, I gasp silently for air. I then hear my stomach growl and I cover it. Max moves my hand away and says, "Come on, let's get something to eat! It's probably lunch time already."
Then, I thought swirls in my head. I say, "Let's have a baking date!"
