Melanie was leaning on the door, her hands knotting in a fist as it held his shirt tightly. His li-ps were moving on hers pa-ssionately and she could feel it de-ep in her soul.
Axel kept pulling her delicate body to his, his hands caressing her se-xiness. His li-ps slowly left hers and got replaced on her neck.
Melanie took a sharp intake of breath as his li-ps su-cked on the sensitive skin on her neck.
Her hand which was holding his neck, traveled to his neck and she held him tightly there.
“I love you, Mel” Axel’s hot breath fanned her neck as he kept placing a sensual ki-ss on her neck.
“I love you so fuc-k ing much,” he su-cked on her neck de-eply, aiming to give her a de-ep hickey.
Melanie bit her succulent li-ps and tried to resist the mo-an that threatened to escape from her tempting li-ps.
Slowly, his li-ps left her neck and he raised his head to stare at her.
He raised a thumb and wiped the little tear in her eyes, then he pulled her to him and placed a longing ki-ss on her forehead. His heart was beating fast against his chest and it was all for the lady in his arms right now.
“You don’t have to say anything, Mel. I perfectly understand your emotions right now,” he began gently.
“But, I won’t break you, I promise. Yea, I’m a playboy, I admit that. But, that stopped the day I met you, I couldn’t bring myself to do it anymore,” his arms were around her, holding her to himself as though she’s running away anytime soon.
“Avoiding you was like a suicide attempt, don’t even do that to me again, I might die for real this time,” he finally concluded with a whisper.
Melanie stood still in his arms, she just didn’t know what to say at that moment.
Her roommate just confessed his love to her, and he was no other than her ex’s friend! It’s so shocking to her.
“We’re still friends, right?” She heard him asking.
Truly, being friends with him will be so awkward knowing how fully well that he’s in love with her. Yet, she found herself saying the word “yes”.
“Yes. We’re still friends,” she muttered.
Axel released the breath he was holding and a smile left his li-ps. The journey of winning her heart starts now.

Axel entered his room and shut the door gently. He sauntered towards the bed and when he finally got to it, he stretched his hand and got hold of his wallet which was on the nightstand.
He sat on the bed and opened his wallet. He sighed when he saw a little cash left in it, he was not a fan of taking cash around, his money was always in his account but… He couldn’t make use of it anymore.
He threw the wallet to the bed and covered his face with his palm. He looked fine, but de-ep down, he was de-ep in thought.
The payment of the tuition fees will be due soon, he could afford to pay it himself and how can he do that when his account was freezed by his selfish father?
At the mention of his father, his phone beeped immediately.
He took it and then discovered that it was a message from his Dad.
He clic-ked on the message box.
★ YOUR TUITION FEES WILL BE DUE SOON, HOW WILL YOU GO ABOUT IT? I’M SURE YOU DON’T EVEN HAVE A DIME WITH YOU. MARRY ARIEL AND THEN EVERYTHING WILL BE BACK TO NORMAL. THIS IS YOUR LAST CHANCE ★
Axel scoffed and threw his phone to his bed in anger. Does his Father think he’s gonna buy him with money?
“So lame,” he mumbled.
He picked his phone and then started searching for an agency in need for a model. It’s time for him to work for his money now.
He’d never give in to his father’s demands, never! Not when his heart already belongs to someone else.

Melanie came out of the bathroom, rubbing her hair vigorously with the towel in her hand. She was putting on a bathrobe, she walked to the dressing mirror, staring at her reflection.
*”I love you, Mel”* Axel’s words kept ringing in her ears.
She bit her li-ps hard. On a normal basis, she’d have contacted Paisley immediately as she doesn’t keep anything from her.
But now, she doesn’t trust anyone anymore. Lauren and Julie seem to be good friends to her, but she still doesn’t know who among them would spread false rumors about her.
As a result of that, she decided to stay low for a while. She just needs to access them before trusting them again.
“Gosh, I’m stuck” she gro-aned, sitting of the chair.
Her eyes went to her neck and her cheeks flushed crimson red when she saw a glaring hickey on it.
“That bad boy,” she mumbled to herself.
Her phone rang on the nightstand, she stood up and walked to it. She picked up her phone, it was a call from her Mom.
“Hi, Mom,” she smiled immediately as she clic-ked on the green icon.
“Something is wrong between you and Paisley, isn’t it?” Mrs. Brown asked sternly.
Melanie’s heart skipped a beat. This voice she heard just now wasn’t friendly to the ears at all.
“What are you talking about? Paisley and I…” She bit her li-ps. Was she going to lie again?
“Paisley has been ignoring my calls which is so unusual. Your Dad called her and it was still the same thing, are you still gonna lie to me?” Mrs. Brown said.
“Mom…” Melanie began with a heavy heart.
“Paisley and I…. We ended our friendship,” she dropped the bombshell.
“What?”
“The night you called, when you heard me crying on the phone… I found her sleeping with my boyfriend,” Melanie muttered.
“Is this true? Paisley did that?” Mrs. Brown asked in shock.
“Yes, Mom,” Melanie sniffed.
“I felt betrayed, Mom. She didn’t even feel remorse, she…”
“You have a boyfriend and I wasn’t aware of it?” Mrs. Brown cuts her off.
“Kids nowadays. I don’t want to hear any trash, come back home tomorrow with your things. And… Send Paisley over!” The call ended instantly.
Melanie sighed. That moment, her mom’s words rang back in her ears.
She should come back home???
Her eyes wide-ned.
****
NEXT DAY***
Melanie walked into the school with a solemn look on her face. By the time she left the house, she could sense Axel wasn’t at home as everywhere was silent.
Her thoughts were filled with her Mom’s words. She should come back home? Is that the end of seeing Axel for her?
And she should send Paisley over?
She sighed and stomped her foot on the ground angrily. Her Mom still treats her like the young girl of six years old, whereas she was twenty!
“Gosh,” she grumbled as she made her way to a chair around the school.
She sat on it and placed her bag on her lap. Her mind drifted to Paisley, was she that heartless as to ignore her parent’s calls?
And how’s she going to react when she delivers her Mom’s message to her?
“Melanie?” She snapped out of her thoughts immediately when she heard her name. She raised her head and saw Kylie staring down at her worriedly.
He was looking extra handsome today, she sighed and took her eyes away.
Kylie itched his hair nervously before sitting down beside her.
“I’m sorry,” he started.
Melanie turned to him.
“I shouldn’t have said that. I was just…. Jealous,” he sighed.
“I was heartbroken when I learnt that you and Axel stayed together, I just couldn’t think straight.”
“I was only worried, and… Hearing from the students and Axel himself that you’re his girlfriend shattered my heart a lot, I couldn’t think straight and I said some harsh words… I’m sorry,” Kylie muttered.
Melanie smiled gently.
“I perfectly understand you, Kylie. And… I guess I’ll be moving out of the house soon,” she mumbled.
“Why?”
“It had to be done, my Mom mustn’t find out that I stay in the same apartment as a guy, she’s gonna kill me,” Melanie chuckled.
“Then… You aren’t dating Axel?” Kylie asked with a glint of hope in his eyes.
“Yeah. It was all a lie, he did that to save me from the students,” Melanie said.
“Wow! I never expected such from him, I thought he was a bad person after all he’s a bad boy,” Kylie smiled.
“I thought so at first, but he proved me wrong. He’s a good guy, a nice one at that. He’s cute, he’s caring, and…” Melanie smiled, staring into space.
Kylie watched her curiously.
“I just love everything about him,” Melanie completed
“What?”
Melanie snapped her head towards him when she realized what she just uttered out.
“That’s not what I mean. I mean, he was always there whenever I needed help, he was there for me whenever I needed a shoulder to lean on, I love that about him,” she smiled awkwardly.
“Then if I do that for you, would you love me too?” Kylie suddenly asked.
Melanie choked on her breath.
“Then I need to start trying, I’ll do every possible means to make sure you love me back,” he smiled.
Melanie shifted uncomfortably where she sat and itched her hair.

Paisley was on her way to the cafeteria when she came across Melanie. She tried to walk past her but Melanie stopped her immediately.
“We need to talk,” Melanie muttered.
Paisley rolled her eyes before staring at her.
“What exactly? Are you here to apologize for misjudging me?” She asked.
“Mom asked to see you,” Melanie blurted out.
“Aunt did?” Paisley asked in surprise.
“I’m surprised you still addressed her as your aunt. You have been ignoring her calls lately and she asked to see you,” Melanie muttered
“I guess we’re both in trouble,” she sighed.
Paisley bit her li-ps.
“By the way, are you sure you aren’t the one who posted the rumor on the blog?” Melanie asked
“You should know me more than anyone else,” Paisley scoffed.
“Well, I don’t. I thought I knew you, but I found out that I don’t the day you betrayed me by sleeping with my boyfriend,” Melanie smirked.
“Lanie!” Lauren screamed, rushing to the scene.
She eyes Paisley before holding Melanie’s arm.
“Aren’t you going to the cafeteria?” She asked.
“Well, I am. See ya’ later,” Melanie stared at Paisley before walking away.
Lauren stuck her tongue at Paisley and ran after Melanie.
Paisley heaved a sigh as her mind drifted to Melanie’s parents. Truth be told, she badly missed them a lot, but how could she face them when she betrayed their only daughter?
***
“What were you talking about with her?” Lauren asked Melanie on their way to the cafeteria.
“Something, I guess,” Melanie muttered.
Lauren pouts.
“Are you keeping something from me now?” She asked.
Melanie glanced at her and smiled. Lauren doesn’t seem like a bad person to her, but she couldn’t trust her, not yet.
She needs to follow Axel’s advice.
At the mention of his name, her heart started beating fast. She hadn’t set her eyes on him and she missed him greatly.
“Lanie?” Lauren called.
“I’m not keeping any secrets from you Lauren. By the way, how’s Julie?” Melanie asked.
“She said she ain’t coming today, I hope she’s fine” Lauren said.
Melanie didn’t say a word as they continued their journey to the cafeteria.

WINK MODELLING AGENCY***
???? Wow, is this a human?
???? He’s so hot! He’s gonna fit perfectly for a model
???? Gosh, in tripping!
???? I’d like to shoot with him someday
Different murmurings filled the agency as Axel made way into the Director’s office.
The Director gasped immediately he set his eyes on Axel.
“Congressman Greg Braun’s son??” He asked in disbelief.
Axel smiled and walked briskly to him.
The Director quickly stood up and bowed his head to him.
“Welcome, it’s such an honor to find you here,” he smiled.
Axel smiled.
“I’d prefer if you don’t use honorifics for me, be informal please” he muttered.
The Director raised his head and directed him to a chair.
Axel sat down opposite him and folded his arms against his chest.
“I don’t have to interview you or any sort because you’re qualified already” the Director said.
Axel raised a brow.
“Is this because of my identity?” He asked
“No. You’re exactly what we needed at this moment, your physique is so good,”
Axel smiled.
“Thanks,”
“So, shall we move to the next deal?” The Director asked.
“Yes,”
“Your first shoot will be with the popular model, Sierra Ashford” The Director said
At that moment, the door flung open and an extremely gorgeous lady walked in, walking elegantly into the office, taking her heels slowly.
A smile found its way to her li-ps when her eyes fell on the demigod on the chair.
“Perfect,” she smiled.
