GOLDEN RECORDS
"Geez guys, I missed school so much, the classes and the pretty girls and that cutie, Gianna ." Lucas said with his hands on his chest and threw his head backwards dramatically. " Of course you did but I'm sure you missed the pretty girls a little more than anything else." Jayden said. " I did miss the ladies, Chicago ladies are a total turn off. But I miss Gia more though. I think I'm falling for that cutie. I think of a lot lately." Lucas said playfully. "Keep my sister out of your thoughts." Diamond suddenly chips in glaring harshly at Lucas.
"Woah chill dude, i'm just kidding, geez !" Lucas said moving backwards a little. "You better be! From now on, leave my sister out of your business, understood?" Diamond retorted coldly and walked out. "Gosh, he's so scary." Lucas breathed out. "You mentioned his soft spot." Owen said camly. "But wait, you were just kidding right?, about liking Gianna? "Owen asked looking weirdly curious.
"Of course not. We all think she's cute right?, we all love her as well. She's like a little sister to all of us. "Lucas explained and Owen nodded looking suspiciously relieved. "Why?, you thought I meant something else, didn't you? Like I wanted to date her, right? naaa, Gia's like my sister, no hard feelings." Lucas asked at the same time, casually explained.
He walked towards Owen and leaned towards his ear." I know you don't consider her your sister, do you? I can feel the hard feelings Owen." Lucas teased Owen. "Fuck off moron!" Owen snapped and everyone in the room gasped. It was because Owen never used curse words, he was the mature minded one so they were all surprised. "Sorry." He quickly apologised and went upstairs.
" You always have a way of annoying people, don't you?, you even got the most decent guy to curse. You deserve an award Lucas and a big trophy too." Connor a co star who was also their close friend said and Lucas bowed dramatically. " That's me, the bad influence. Thanks for the compliment my good sir. " He replied and Connor scoffed.
The Golden boys arrived their Mansion later that evening and a very excited Gianna welcomed them, hugging the life out of each and everyone of them including Diamond. "Geez, calm down Gianna, we know you missed us. " Lucas said proudly. " Don't mind him Gia, he missed you more than any of us. "Jayden said. "Oh really?" Gianna muttered with narrowed eyes and a small smile.
"Don't flatter yourself too much. I think Owen missed you more." Lucas said to her and winked at Owen whose face was red from embarrassment. she giggled. "Really?" She looked at Owen who turned his face away. "We all missed you equally." He muttered and this made Lucas laugh out in mockery.
{The next day}
Melissa's P. O. V:
I got out of the cab and sluggishly walked into school. Today's so going to be terrible. - first of all, I got out of bed with my usual awful nightmares and I couldn't sleep all night - earned me some really ugly looking eye bags, my stupid bloody period hit me too and I'm dying of cramps right now - my face probably looks like shit, it totally ruined my breakfast too and I had to stand for hours before I could get a cab.
I walked into the hallway and located my locker. I opened my locker and brought out my books for the first class I was having today, dropped every other thing inside and locked the locker. "Hey!". Gretel's voice came in loud making me stagger back. "Ahhh!" I exclaimed. "Woah. Calm down, it's just me." She said with a look of amusement on her face. "NEVER.. do that again!! You hear me?" I snapped at her and she shook moving backwards. "Oh, sorry. I just thought it'll be okay to..." "It was not okay and it's still not.! " I snapped again.
I do not appreciate being sneaked up on and scared out of my wits. It's the last thing I need on a day like this. "I'm sorry". She said softly and lowered her head. Really?, She's making me feel guilty when she's the one at fault. I sighed. " I'm not mad at you Gret. I just don't like being sneaked up on like that so don't do it next time." I explained and she nodded. She suddenly looked up at me with a cute smile and said. "So, what class do you have this morning?" - geez,, what's with the sudden change of emotions.
Wasn't she just sad?... Oh well, what can you expect from someone this annoying anyway. "English." I replied simply. "Oh goody goody, me too." she squealed but then frowned. I narrowed my eyes at her frowning face not getting the reason for such a look. "Mel,, are you alright? Why do you look like this?" she asked me. Right, she just noticed my messy look. " I'm going to be fine." I simply answered her.
" Not anytime soon if you continue to class like this." She told me. I couldn't understand what she meant. She took my hand and led me to the washroom. When we got there, she opened her bag and took out her face powder and an eyeliner. Wait a minute, what in hell's name is she trying to do? She dabbed her powder brush in the face powder and brought it near my face but I quickly moved away.
"What are you doing?" I asked even though I knew what she wanted to do. "Helping. You simply can't look like this to class. I'll just touch up your face a little and add a little eyeliner to cover up these hideous eye bags." She explained and tried to put that thing on my face but I avoided it again. "Thanks, but no thanks. I don't do make up."
" Just a little bit. You don't want to be the center of attraction the moment you step into the class, do you?" she asked. "I won't do much. Just enough to cover up your flaws and you'd be good to go, I promise." She added. After considering it, I agreed. Of course I didn't wanna be the number one topic on the school's blog so I had better let her. After she was done, she turned me around to look in the mirror and I must say, she's good at her stuff. My ugly bags had disappeared and the make up wasn't noticeable.
I looked like myself. "You like?" She asked feeling proud of her work. "It's not so bad." I muttered and walked to class with her trailing behind me. We got to class and took our seats at the back."Anna isn't here yet." Gret said and I turned to the empty seat in front of me. "I wonder why she's late." Gret added and I shrugged ." Hey" I turned towards the voice.
It was a blonde guy sitting near me." Hey" I replied. "I'm Cole, you must be Melissa." He introduced. "Yeah,, okay" I replied him straight and turned to look out the window. "You seem to prefer outside to the classroom." He said again. "What?" I asked confused. He's obviously trying to have a conversation with me - does my face not say enough already?. "I mean, since you got here you've been looking out the window. I wonder if it's your way of escaping everything happening around you." He added and I scoffed but didn't say anything.
"Here." He then put something in my ear and I quickly took it out. Found out it was an earpiece. "I use this instead." He said smiling. "I don't need it, thanks." I said and handed it back to him and returned my face to the window. "She's not social." I heard Gret say to the guy and I smirked.
