"Rihanna! She saw when Melanie kissed me."Braxton said.
"Wait! And you kissed her back?."
"No I didn't, Melanie happened to confessed her feelings to me, but I didn't know what came over her! She kissed me, and immediately she did that I pushed her off, but I don't know why Rihanna ran out when she saw the scene! I mean,I should be the one who should get annoyed that Giovanni kissed her, coz she didn't pushed him off! But she's hurt coz she saw me kissing Melanie and it made me look like the bad one now. "Braxton sighed and ruffled his hair.
"Wait all this happened and you didn't even bother to tell us, your friends.? Ryder asked.

✢MELANIE APARTMENT✢
Melanie ruffled her hair in anger,, she was angry because Braxton rejected her, he turn her down.
For the first time in her life she's heartbroken, crying coz of a guy.
He was her first love,the moment she set her eyes on him.
This wild feeling started grewing inside her, anytime she sees him her heart kept racing like a milestone,and the man she loves just rejected her coz of Rihanna.
"What does he even sees in her. " She angrily yelled, and grabbed a iron then she threw it on the mirror in front of her.
The mirror smashed into pieces.
She can't let her first love go just like that, she can't let him walk away with another lady.
If she can't have him then no one else will have him.
Not even Rihanna."She swore to herself and started crying again.
Hot tears were rolling down freely from her eyes.
The pains was just too much for her.
Was it her fault that her heart chose him, is it a crime for loving someone that won't even reciprocate her feelings.
She won't give up on her first love.
Never!!!
