You know each other?

MELODY' S POV...

First mum and dad leaving, then the contract than, I broke up with Kayl, than the modeling as if this wasn't enough I had to attend the funeral and now Gordon Greenfield is here...

"Melody? Long time no see," he said casually.

"Hi, Gordon," I said suprised.

He came towards me and hugged me...

Gordon can't do this like this I got angry.

Behind me Logan cleared his throat. "You guys know each other?" he asked in a surprised way.

"Yeah, we do..." Gordon answered with a tone saying a lot and nothing at same time.

"We were at the same middle school. But because he is older he went to high school and we lost contact to each other," I explained looking at Logan who was listening to me patiently.

Then I looked over to Gordon and said:" It's been two years... And so many things have happened... Where were you...?" without me knowing tears popped up in my eyes.

"Well the food is getting cold we should eat," Mr.Johnson said getting me back to senses.

"Yes, right. I sorry," I apologised my unbelievably childish behaviour and wiped my tears away.

"There is nothing to apologise for. We can understand," Mr. Johnson said in an understanding voice.

We now were sitting at a loooooong table with 12 chairs. At the head of the table Mr Johnson. At his right his son Logan. Next to Logan Gordon and I was sitting at the opposite side of Logan.

Gordon kept looking into my direction. I wondered why... Maybe because I cried infront of him and shouted at him with no reason. I mean it's not his fault that he is two years older than me and went of the middle school a little earlier than me. But the time without him was horrible. I missed him.

"Logan how do you know Gordon? I am just being curious..." I asked while looking on my plate.

"His father started working with us after he opened up his new company. After some time we started meeting each other. went to parties together and so on you know... since than he was my best friend," Logan answered and hit Gordon's back.

"Oh I see..."

"Melody, dear. We have to discuss about where you'll be going to school. I know it'll be your last year at the high-school and you might have a lot of friend there but I think after what happened it would be better if you transferre to the Raven-High-School. It's closer to Logan's apartment and the main building of the Company. What do you think?" Mr.Johnson asked.

"Mr. Johnson I was thinking the same. After all I was about to change my school anyway" I answered.

"Why so?" Gordon asked.

"Because of the teachers. They don't feel like I am equal to the others since I had a boyfriend. They have been giving me bad marks for that," I said in a tone that was saying that I didn't care at all.

"Well than I'll make the preparation to send you to the Raven-High-School," Mr.Johnson said.

I nodded my head. The rest of the dinner no and said a word.

After dinner we sat down on the sofa in the living lounge. Then suddenly the phone of Gordan began to ring.

"Oh... Yeah that's OK... yeah I'll be there immediately... OK see you there. Bye Dad,"Gordon answered the call thn looked at us and said:" I have to go. Dad needs me at home for something." We said our goodbyes and he left.

"Dad, I think we should go now too," Logan said.

"Alright. It was a long day for the two of you," Mr.Johnson agreed.

We went out to the car and Logan open the door for me. We sat down and Logan started driving.

"Melody... Can I ask you something?" Logan asked breaking the silice.

"Mhm," I hummed in response.

"Were you and Gordon together like in a relationship or something like that?" Logan asked trying hard not to look nervous.

"No. You can't say that like that. We were best best friends. The time he left I had no other friends the him and some other seniors," I answered.

"Why are you asking?" I asked him.

"Well... I... ahm... I am... I was just curious because the way you cried infront of him it was kind of looking intense. You know like girlfriend and boyfriend would do..." Logan said stuttering.

Me trying not to laught just nodded my head and looked back at the road.

The rest of the way back to his apartment went silent.

We reached his apartment and he opened the door. I went in there and it looked totally different from before. It was clean and neat. And I could finally see it's beauty clearly. The way the kitchen was styled in the white and grey colour. Than the perfect matched living room and the balcony. It looked unbelievably good. Compared to what I saw before we left, the messiness, it was majestic.

"What happened," Logan asked looking at me with questioning eyes.

"I was just asking myself where all the mess is gone, " I answered.

"I told you about the Joe, the caretaker of the apartment? I call him because my brother is coming tomorrow from the doctors seminar. So Joe cleaned everything up so my brother won't sold me for being messy when he was away," he said.

"Aha OK."

"Well it's been a long day and it's already 9:30 PM. Do you want to go to sleep...?" Logan asked me politely.

"Yeah," I said and went over to my room.

I changed into my pyjamas and went to bed. I thought about how much has happened today. It was the longest Saturday I've ever had. And I was exhausted.

I don't think I'll ever be happy again like I was when my parents were with me. Now looking back at the time we had. It maybe was to short but with them I had the best memories. But they are gone now. And I miss them. I miss my mum who always gave me a good night kiss even if I'm already 18. And I miss my dad who would sold me for not going out enough.

... I really miss them.
