Melissa sprawled against a couch in their new house munching on snacks.
"I miss Liam, I should not have followed you to this God forsaken mission" She grumbled.
"You call a revenge mission…" Alvin was saying.
"Okay, I'm sorry but.."
"How sure are you that Liam loves you the way you do?" Alvin asked after a pause.
"What do you mean?" Melissa shot back almost immediately.
"I mean…"
"Yes, he does, he loves me, everyone can see that and you know quite well how he saved me and have been there for me, why are you asking this all of a sudden?" Melissa questioned exasperatedly.
"I just mean… Mel, I just want the best for you" Alvin sighed.
"I know twinnie and I know what I'm doing" Melissa gave him a reassuring smile.
"If you say so"
"Let's spar" She said and pulled him up.
Moonlight High school.
It was a basketball match against Moonlight High and another high school, Rowens memoral high school and as usual Tracy pulled the girls to support Miguel.
She caught his eyes during the match and thought she saw him smile at her.
After the match, the players went to the dressing room and she sneaked into the dressing chambers to place a note in Miguel's bag.
"Hey, what are you doing here?" The captain of Rowens high school barked probably angry that they losed.
"Ehm…I'm here for… "She stuttered.
"You are here for who?" He asked and marched over to her pulling her hair.
"Let me go, I came for someone else" She tried explaining.
"What do you mean, you came for someone else, pretty girl" His lips trailed her neck leaving kisses in its wake and a wave of nausea rushed through her.
"Let go" She cried as she felt his hands on her naked skin, it was then she realized that he had ripped off her shirt leaving only her singlet.
"Tasty" He commented and made to kiss her lips when a groan escaped his lips.
"What the…" He saw a fist come in contact with his face sending him flying across the room.
"And what are you doing in a room filled with boys" Tracy heard a familiar voice and she felt secured instantly. Her eyes widened when she saw the note in Miguel hands.
"Your performance was superb earlier, I don't know why you had never noticed me even just as friends, I promise just friends" The note read.
"Lousy" Miguel spat out and threw his jersey at her. "Put it on" He instructed and turned to look at the opposition captain with a scowl, Walking towards his slowly.
"Miguel don't" A shy voice came and he turned to look at her, eyes faced to the ground and trembling body.
He let out a sigh and wrapped his hands around her body feeling her stiffen leading her away.
"Thank you" She whispered.
"It's nothing I would have done it for anyone" He said.
"I know but thanks" She said again.
"Tracy" She heard her name being called and she turned to see Anne and Malia.
"Where had you been? You got us worried" Malia said and took her from Miguel.
"I'm fine" She managed to say and turned to Miguel who just nodded at her and turned to go.
"Do something" Anne mouthed with a wink.
"Miguel" Tracy called after taking a deep breath and when he stopped she ran to him hugging him.
Miguel stiffened before closing his eyes and pulling away.
"It's nothing" He said and walked away decisively.
"That's great girl" Anne teased and pulled her away.
"What the hell happened to you?" Malia asked and Tracy explained what happened.
"Oh my.." Anne exclaimed "Thank God for Miguel" She added.
Anne arrived home and met her mother preparing dinner.
"Mum" She called and walked up to her.
"What is it darling?" Selena asked.
"There is something I've not told you, the Demons are in our school as students" She said and Selena turned to look at her.
"You are going to resolve this eventually, there's is not much I can do as I've been cast aside by my people but be careful" Selena said and sighed.
"I know mum"
"I'm sorry darling"
"Mum it's not your fault, I understand you" Anne said and Selena let out a sigh again.
Next morning, Moonlight High.
Adrian and Miguel walked into the class not spotting Tom as usual.
"Where is Tom?" Anne whispered question marks visible on her face.
"I think you look like an old gossip with that expression" Tracy teased and the group laughed.
"Is the gays quarreling today?" Fred asked mockingly as he walked up to Adrian.
"None of your business" Adrian spat.
"Oh really" Harris laughed his hands wounded around Chloe's waist.
"Disgusting" Anne muttered.
"A bitch deserves a bastard" Tracy added.
And just then Tom hurried in with an hickey on his neck in a place even his high neck shirt could not cover.
"What do we have here" Fred chuckled as Tom walked to the far end of the class.
The teacher came in and that put an end to their farce.
"The school has planned a one week excursion for your class to the rocks in Hari Hill" The teacher announced and the class shook with clapping.
"That's nice" Melissa muttered and turned to Alvin who was leaning against his chair acting unbothered and her eyes caught sight of Anne staring at him.
"Wow" She exclaimed.
"Drop your silly thoughts" Alvin muttered.
The bell rang for lunch break and Malia caught sight of Melissa holding hands with Chelsea.
"Babe, I don't think she is a competition, she acts like his elder sister" Anne muttered. "But I don't know, I do like her" she added.
"She just got the ability to make people like her" Tracy chipped in.
"I second that, even though I'm not supposed to, I think she likes Chelsea" Malia said with a groan.
Basketball court. After school.
Adrian stood throwing the ball into the net roughly as if releasing pent up emotions.
"Man, take it easy" Miguel said.
"Ugh" Adrian groaned and threw the ball noisily into the net sitting down on the court.
"I can't believe that, it's…" He let out another groan.
"You have to sort it out bro, I don't think it was his fault" Miguel said.
"Are you really supporting him… You didn't see the video, it was disgusting " Adrian spat out.
"Wow man that was harsh but is it because it was not with you" Miguel teased.
"The video was… I don't know how to express it" Adrian sighed.
"Tom in his right senses won't do something like that and allow someone to make a video of him" Miguel said after some thought.
"Then he should have said something, I asked him, I called him and coming to class with an hickey plastered on his neck… What do he take me for?" Adrian asked angrily and turned to see Tom standing behind Miguel with a tear stained face.
"Wow" Miguel exclaimed when he followed Adrian's gaze and met Tom.
"Both of you guys are my friends but you both should sought it out yourselves" Miguel said and stood up walking away.
