Chapter 25

Melanie's POV

"Wes, where are my heels?" I yell, digging around in our shared closet.

I moved in officially a few days ago and I keep losing my stuff and it's fucking annoying.

"I don't know!" He yells back and I groan.

We had to be at a party in an hour and I still had to do my hair and makeup. I finally find the heels I've been looking for in the back of the closet and I sigh in relief.

I put them on, walking into our bathroom and I do my hair and my makeup.

I walk out into the living room and see Wesley slouched on the couch, watching the tv.

"You could've helped me you know."

"I'm watching the World Cup." He says, gesturing to the tv and I roll my eyes.

"Can you please just zip me up?" I ask, turning around so he knows I'm talking about my dress.

A few seconds later I feel hands resting on my lower back, and then I feel my dress tighten as I hear the zipper go up.

"You ready to go?" I ask, turning back around.

"Yeah, just let me record the rest of the game." He says and walks over to the tv.

When he's done, I grab my clutch and he grabs his keys, following me downstairs and we get in his car.

As we arrive to the party, I get out and wait for Wesley to get out. He wraps an arm around my waist once he gets to me and there's already people running around drunk and there's red solo cups littered all over the lawn.

"Did we really have to come to a high school party?"

"My friends invited me. They're seniors."

"Great." I groan.

"They're nice guys, don't worry." He says, kissing my cheek before we head inside.

"Wesley!" A guy calls, walking over and Wesley leaves my side to give him a bro hug. "So who's the lovely lady you got here?"

"This is my girlfriend, Melanie." Wesley says and they get closer to me.

"Well, hi Melanie. My name is Nick. Nice to meet you." He says, kissing the top of my hand.

"Nice to meet you too." I yell over the pounding music.

Wesley walks away to greet other people and Nick grabs my hand and leads me to the drinks.

"What would you like, babe?" He asks and I give him a small smile.

"Anything is fine." I say and he hands me a cup full of liquid and I take a sip, my throat burning at the taste.

Me and Nick end up talking for awhile and I think I'm on my third drink and I'm tipsy already.

"Hey don't get my girlfriend drunk." Wesley says out of nowhere and all of us laugh as I drink down the rest of my drink.

"She's fine, Wes." Nick hollers and I laugh again.

Wesley takes my hand and leads me to where everybody is dancing and I press my back to his front.

I grind my butt onto his crotch as he takes my hips, leaning down to kiss the side of my neck. I can feel his hard on immediately and I smirk to myself.

I turn around and wrap my arms around his neck and he slides his hand down to my butt, squeezing it and pressing me further against him.

"Fuck.. Melanie..." He breathes out, in between kissing me.

I shut him up by pressing my lips to his forcefully, pushing my fingers in his hair and pulling at the ends.

"Babe.. I need to fuck you." He moans into my mouth and I smirk against his lips.

"Not now." I say and walk away to get another drink, feeling his eyes on my ass the whole time.

I grab a cup of alcohol and walk back to Wesley. I rest an arm on his shoulder and sway my hips back and forth to the music and Wesley kisses down my neck, dancing with me.

"Let's go." He says, taking my hand and I accidentally drop my drink, which I drank most of anyway. As we're about to leave, some guy slaps my ass and whistles and I turn around to glare at him.

"What the fuck, man?" Wesley hears him and walks over to shove the guy, letting go of my hand.

"Wesley!" I try and call out but the music is too loud and everyone is beginning to crowd. Stupid high schoolers.

"Whoa man, calm down." The guy who slapped my ass says and Wesley looks like he's about to blow up.

"Fuck you, that's my girlfriend!" Wesley yells and the guy looks like he could care less.

"Well, your girlfriend has a nice ass!" He yells back and Wesley punches him in the mouth and the guy brings his hand to his face.

Wesley begins to walk back over to me but the guy walks over and before I can warn Wesley, he turns Wesley around and punches him, knocking Wesley to the ground and I scream.

Wesley jumps back up and I run over to him, stepping between them two before he can throw another punch. Wesley already has his arm lifted up and quickly puts it down when he sees me.

"Stop, please. You two are gonna kill each other if you don't." I say, trying to stay calm but I know Wesley isn't the least bit calm.

"Mel, get out of my fucking way."

"Wes, I'm fine. You could get arrested again for this. They're minors, come on." I say and I pull him out of there, and we walk to the car in silence.

Wesley drives away from the house full of drunk hormonal teenagers and I rest my head against the window. My head has been pounding from drinking so much and from the loud music. It's silent the whole ride and I drift off to sleep.

"Babe." I hear Wesley whisper.

He presses a short kiss to my lips and picks me up bridal style and I wrap my arms around his neck, resting my head against his chest. He kicks the door shut with his foot and I yawn.

He struggles with the front door to our apartment but he eventually gets it open, kicking the door shut behind us.

I feel the comftiness of the mattress a minute later and Wesley's fingers unzip my dress, taking it off of me and I roll over, my back facing him. I remember that I didn't wear a bra so I pull the covers up quickly and snuggle into the pillows.

-

I wake up the next morning with a throbbing headache and I turn over to see Wesley with his arm around my waist. He's snoring loudly and his mouth is wide open. I would've laughed at him but my head hurt so bad.

"Wesley, please wake up." I whisper but he doesn't move.

I sigh, resting my head back down on the pillow as I lead my hand down his body and to his crotch. I press down once and Wesley grabs my wrists, rolling over so he's hovering over me.

"What are you doing with those hands, babe?" He asks, his eyes darkening with lust and I groan.

I roll him off of me and look over at him.

"I need some medicine. My head hurts really bad." I say and he nods.

"Okay, baby. I'll be right back." He says, before kissing my forehead.

He comes back a minute later with some water and some medicine and I sigh in relief. After I take the medicine, Wesley sits down next to me and pushes some hair out of my face.

"Whoa, are you okay?" I ask, reaching my hand up to his jaw which is throbbing.

"Oh that? Yeah, it's where that fucker hit me yesterday." He says and I frown at him, dropping my hand.

"Oh." I whisper and he leans down to kiss me on the forehead.

"Are you okay, though? You look exhausted."

"I just drank too much." I say and he gives me a small sympathetic smile.

He moves to stand up but I grab his wrist and pull him back down. "What?"

"I want you to cuddle with me." I say, opening up my arms.

"Baby, I'm sorry. I really want to but I got to go to work." He says and I pout at him.

"Please?" I say, sticking my lip out and giving him puppy dog eyes.

"Don't pull that on me. I can't help it, I gotta go." He says and I huff.

I turn around and cuddle into the pillows, closing my eyes.

"Baby, don't be mad at me. I'll be back in a few hours." He says, and I feel him lean over and sure enough, he presses his lips to the back of my neck.

"Just go." I say and he leans over more to kiss me on the cheek.

I hear him get ready and I try to block him out, passing out quickly.

-

"Baby," i wake up to Wesley's voice and he looks down at me. "Do you wanna come take a shower with me? I'm really sweaty and I think you need a shower to help you feel better."

I nod and I open my arms, motioning for him to pick me up and he laughs a bit, helping me off the bed and into his arms. I wrap my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck, resting my head on his chest as he walks us to our bathroom.

He sets me down on the counter, then ridding himself of his clothes. The only thing I have on is my underwear and I realize that my breasts are on full display and he smirks at me. I hop down, pulling down my underwear and he starts the shower.

Wesley gets in first, taking my hand in his and I get in a second later.

When we're done with our shower, I get dressed quickly and see that it's about 6 pm. I'm about to go find something to eat but my phone starts to ring.

"Hello?"

"Melanie?"

"Who is this?"

"Oh.. You probably don't remember me. This is Jace's mom."

"Oh, hi Carol. Why are you calling?" I take a seat on the couch.

"I was calling to invite you to Jace's memorial. You can come and stay at our place for the weekend. We know it's a few months late but we need to have one."

"Uh, yeah sure. When is it?"

"This weekend. If that's okay with you. We would love to have you here, you're still family to us."

"That's fine with me."

"That's great! I'll send you directions to our new house and we can't wait to see you."

"Okay, I'll see you soon." I say and hang up the phone.

I set my phone down, and sigh.

"Babe, who was that?" Wesley asks and I look over to him. He still only had a towel wrapped around his waist and he's brushing his teeth.

"It was Jace's mother. She wants me to go to their place for his memorial this weekend."

"But our one year anniversary is this weekend." He says, his shoulders slouching as he takes his toothbrush out of his mouth.

"Wesley, I need to go to this."

"Mel, it's our fucking anniversary!"

"I need closure!" I yell back.

"I guess I know how much I mean to you then.."

"Wesley."

"No.. Just go to the fucking memorial."

"Wesley... I-I before you cheated on me that one time... I um, I made out with Drew. And spent the night. But we didn't have sex. Trust me." I blurt out.

"You what?" He yells.

"It was the same night you cheated on me!" I try and defend myself.

"No, you cheated on me with my best friend!" He yells louder and I flinch.

"Please, I-I meant to tell you before you got arrested!"

"Bullshit!"

"Wesley.." I try to walk over to him.

"Leave." He says through clenched teeth.

"Wesley-"

"Just leave. I can't talk to you right now." He says, and I sigh, grabbing my bag and I head to the door. I turn around to look at him, his back towards me. He has his head down and I shake my head, and turn around to leave. When I get in my car, I begin to cry as I head to the only place I can think of. My dad's house.
