Good Girl Gone Bad (BOOK 1)

Chapter 21

"Luke," we say at the same time.

I'm going to kill him!

"Hey don't worry Cupcake! He likes you too!" Dylan says.

"That's what Pretty Boy said," I say.

"Well Pretty Boy is right," Dylan concludes.

I roll my eyes.

"Well I don't want to get hurt agian so I'm going to pretend everything's normal!" I say.

Dylan laughs.

"You look so awkward around him now," he says.

"Thanks Dylan, that's helping so much," I say sarcastically.

He laughs again.

"Don't worry Cupcake. All things good happen to those who wait," he says.

I roll my eyes. Wise owl.

"I think I'm just gonna call you Wise Owl," I say.

"No I'm good with Dyl," Dylan says.

With that he gets up and walks out of my room. I sit there in silence. Lets see. In the past month and a half why has happened?

I came back to San Francisco
I got my first kiss
I went on my first date
I met Luke Hemmings
My dad got married
I found out I liked Justin Moors

That's a lot to take in. I still don't know what I'm going to do about this stupid crush. I mean, he will hurt me right? Just like...him. One crush can get a little out of hand. Plus, 2 people know about it! The last time someone found out about my crush, crap went down. It can't happen again!

I wish I was a vampire. Specifically from the Vampire Diaries. I mean, Eleana is so lucky! She was able to turn off her feelings just because she was a vampire and vampires can do that. Isn't that cool? It saved her a heck of a lot of pain! How come I can't turn off my feelings? I would never have a crush again. I would never care for anyone. And I would never get hurt!

I can try to turn off my feelings but in the end, just like all vampires, I will get them back. Then I will feel all the pain, anger, love etc that I was boxing up. It would kill me. Right?

Why am I getting so worked up on a crush? It's a stupid crush! But I had one once and it ended badly. I don't want that again. Then again if I don't crush on someone I'll never get married and have kids. Right? Right.

Right? Right.

Okay? Okay.

Forever? Forever.

Ugh! Why am I thinking of that?

"Maybe forever will be our always,"

The memory just flew through me. It was magical.

Honestly I can't wait to go back to school on Monday. Maybe I can get away from him. I could sit with Ella at lunch! I'm sure she'd be fine with it. I hope so at least.

I hear a knock at the door and sigh.

"Enter!" I say.

Just my luck, Justin comes in. No!

"Hey Beauty," he says and sits down beside me.

"Hi Beast," I say and look down at my shoes.

"So the guys and I are going to the beach tomorrow, wanna come?" He asks.

Should I go? I mean it is good weather. And that would give me an excuse to see Justin shirtless. Wait what? No! Pretend I never said that.

"Please?" Justin pleads.

I sigh and look at him.

"I'll come. But you have to get me a surf board," I say.

"Deal!" He says with joy.

Then, he runs back downstairs and tells the boys while I lie on my bed. Suddenly, I hear the front door slam shut and an engine roar.

He's actually getting me a surf board? Yay! I love surfing. I can't wait!

Soon after, Michael comes into the room.

"Hey Mel," he says and sits on my bed.

"Hi Michael," I respond.

"How's dad?" He mumbles.

"Fine. A little upset you didn't come though. He was going to make you his best man you know," I say.

"Yeah. I know. I feel bad for not coming," he says.

"No offense but you should be," I say. He chuckles.

"Anyways, we will be leaving early in the morning. 8 ish. So be up and ready!" Michael says and walks out of my room.

I sigh. I might as well go to sleep now so I can wake up. I set my alarm for 7 and go to sleep. Tomorrow will be interesting!
