The Boy Next Door

Chapter 40

Melanie's POV

After 5 more hours of this hellhole we call school, the final bell finally rang and I bolted out of the school just to get to my car so I could get home. If only Jess would hurry her ass up.

When she finally got to the car, I practically went over the speed limit just to wait 3 hours to go to Brent's house.

"Why are you going so fast?!" Jess yelled at me.

"I-I just want to get homework done and out of the way," I said.

We pulled into our house at 2:15. Dammit. Why can't it be 5 already?

I went to my room and made sure that my blinds were open just in case Brent had his open..

Brent's POV

I got home and my mom could clearly see that my mood has changed since this morning.

I went straight to my room and started most of my homework. I went to my window and looked outside. It reminded me of the day before Melanie's birthday seeing her so excited that I followed her. But this time, I didn't see her happy. I saw her on the ground crying.

A thought popped in my head when I saw her like that. Should I go over there and see if she's okay? Or wait for her to come here in... 2 hours. Frick.

I wish that she could just listen to me when I say I miss her. I've texted her, but she never answered.

I was about to get some food when my phone went off.

From Meeeeelllll😍: I need to talk to you. Is it ok if I come over a little earlier then 5? Like now?

To Meeeeelllll😍: Sure. I'll be in my room. Just come upstairs. My mom had to go out so it'll just be us. Is that ok?

From Meeeeelllll😍: Yeah. I'll be over in 5.

That's the longest we've talked in the past two weeks.

Melanie's POV

"Jess. I'm going to Brent's house," I called out to her.

"Are you guys back together?" She asked taking her headphones out.

"No. It's just that our bio teacher assigned us as lab partners for the whole year."

"What about dinner?" This kid is all about food. God.

"Leftovers. I gotta go."

I went to Brent's house and I have to be honest. It felt really weird. I missed this.

I walked into his house since he said I could. I went to his bedroom and thought about what I was gonna say and do. I was going to forgive him. But when I walked in his room, I knew right then that I wasn't going to anymore.

Brent was there of course. But so was Ashely.

And they were kissing.
