A4’S SUITE***
“Where’s Ace?” Axel asked as they entered the house without Ace.
“He went to see his girlfriend” Aaron muttered, sitting on a couch.
“Girlfriend? With that ugly thing?” Axel scoffed.
“Ace would never date her, he just wants to get into her pants, that’s all” Aiden said.
“He’s just like you” Aaron muttered.
“Me or us?” Axel raised a brow.
Aiden chuckled.
“We aren’t different from each other dude,” he said to Aaron.
“Yea, right” Aaron mumbled.
“So, when are you leaving?” Aiden asked Axel.
“Soon,”
“You won’t even spend time with us anymore? This is seriously becoming annoying” Aaron frowned.
Axel ignored him and rested his head of the chair.
“We can always visit your new house, right?” Aiden asked.
“You’re always welcome” Axel said with his eyes closed.
“That’s settled then, we should be spending time at your place” Aiden said.
Aaron smiled.

“You look tensed, are you okay?” Melanie asked Ace.
They were in his car, on their way to her new house.
“I’m fine love” Ace said.
His phone beeped and he brought it out of his pocket.
“Is anything wrong?” Melanie asked, noticing how he concentrated on his phone.
“Yea” Ace smiled and stared at his phone again
“I’d advise you to put that phone down and don’t get us into an accident” Melanie muttered, staring outside the window.
Ace chuckled and dropped his phone.
“Are you mad right now?” He asked.
“Why would I?”
“Melanie…” His phone rang before he could complete his sentence.
He checked his phone and looked away.
“Why aren’t you picking your call?” Melanie asked, glancing at him.
The car suddenly stopped and she raised a brow.
“What are you doing?” She asked.
“Baby, I’m so sorry. I don’t think I can make it to your house anymore, I have something to take care of” Ace said.
Melanie scoffed.
“More important than me?” She asked.
“I…”
“It’s fine” she removed the seat belt from her phone and made to come down from the car when he held her hand.
“Melanie…”
“I’m sorry, it’s so sudden and I…”
“I’m sorry baby”
Melanie sighed.
“Why do I feel like you’re slowly changing towards me? Like, you don’t really have my time anymore, you’re slowly distancing yourself from me” she said.
“I’m not, love. I’ll never do that, I just need to go now, huh?”
He leaned closer to her and placed a short kiss on her lips.
“I love you” he whispered.
“Wh@tëver” she alighted from the car.
“I’ll call you” he smiled and drove away.
Melanie scoffed, her eyes taking her surrounding.
“Where the hell is this place?” She mumbled.
The thunder strikes and her eyes widened.
“Don’t tell me…” A droplet of water fell on her face.
“No please, don’t do this” the thunder strikes again and soon, rain started falling.
“What the hell? How do I go home? I don’t even know anywhere” Melanie mumbled. She looked around, trying to find a place for shelter but there was none.
“Füçk you, Ace” she gritted. She was beginning to get wet.
She started walking around, hugging herself.
The rain was pouring heavily by now, both her hair and clothes are already drenched .
****
“Why the hell will it be raining now?” Axel mumbled under his breath, staring outside the window.
The rain was very heavy and driving in that condition was really bad so he parked the car.
He removed the face cap and mask from his face before coming down from the car. He sighted an abandoned place not faraway from him and he rushed to it.
His clothes were already wet since the rain was heavy.
“Füçk” he mumbled, dusting his clothes.
Melanie was already shivering, her clothes was dripping wet by now, showing the shape of her bra.
To worsen it all, Ace never called her. She was all alone.
Just when she was about to lose hope, she saw a figure not far from where she was.
“Finally,” she bit her trembling lips.
She hastened her step towards the figure, all that on her mind was to get out of the rain.
She got to where the person was and discovered that it was a guy.
“Erm… Hi” she mumbled.
Axel turned his eyes to her.
“Actually, I’m alone here and…”
***
“Axel, glad you came out on time. This is your roommate, the one I told you about” Mrs. Meyer said.
Axel stopped walking, his attention going towards Melanie.
“She’s beautiful, right?” Mrs. Meyer asked.
“No” he replied bluntly and left the house.
***
Axel remembered her to be the roommate Mrs. Meyer introduced him to.
“Can I stay here with you for a bit till the rain stops?” Melanie completed.
“Not like I own this place anyways” he muttered, looking away from her.
Melanie smiled. She walked to the wall and rested her back on it.
Her gaze went to him and she wouldn’t lie that she found him handsome, smoking hot!
“But not like Ace” she mumbled, taking her gaze away. Even though that was a lie, but she wouldn’t admit she found another guy handsome other than her boyfriend.
“Erm… Do you stay around here?” Melanie asked after a while.
Axel took his eyes from his eyes from his phone , staring at her.
“Why?”
“I just moved in here and I don’t know anywhere, I can’t seem to find my way home” she explained.
“How did you end up here?” He asked, taking his attention back to his phone.
“Actually, I was with my boyfriend and…”
“He dumped you here?” He cuts her off, staring at her.
“No. He needed to attend to something so…”
“He left you here. What’s the difference?” He muttered.
Melanie bit her lips.
“So dumb” he brought out a cigarette from his pocket.
“By the way, you’re beautiful” he put the stick in his mouth, staring at her chest.
Melanie followed his gaze and her eyes went wide when she saw him staring at her chest.
She raised her head to find him smirking at her.
Who the hell is this dude?
