'Had a good night sleep?' Sean whispered to me.
'Can you pass me the jam?' I asked Liz, ignoring Sean completely.
'You're gonna have to talk to me sometime' He pressed on. I grabbed the jam jar from Liz and spread it on my toast 'You see Sean...I might as well enjoy my vacation that you're paying for' I smiled at him fakely 'But you will not have conversation with me what so ever...is that clear?'
'Aren't we talking now?' He asked with a sly grin. I turned away from him and continued preparing my toast. I took it in my hand and jerked it into Sean's face, smearing the jam all over his head.
'Oops...reflex' I giggled at the sight of his shocked face.
'Hello everyone!' Simon greeted us joyfully, he looked around the table checking if everyone was there. He stopped at Sean's sight 'Umm..Sean, you have a little jam on-'
'I know!' Sean yelled abruptly, storming into the bathroom.
'Ok' Simon looked back at him confused then turned to us 'Did everyone have a good night sleep?'
We all groaned in reply.
'I'll take that as a yes' Simon laughed, he looked over a small piece of paper he was holding 'We have a long day ahead of us...whose Amanda and Becky?'
'We are' I pointed at Amanda and myself.
'After breakfast report to the lobby, a van will take you to the shot'
'What about us?' Abs asked.
'You have an hour from breakfast to get ready and then report to the lobby yourselves'
'And them?' J asked pointing at Mel, Liz, Autumn and Marissa. Simon glanced at them and let out a loud sigh 'They can come along...just don't get in the way' He nodded towards them and left the room.
I took a cup of coffee and sipped, listening to other's conversation, suddenly someone tapped me hard on the back, making me jump up, spilling the coffee on my pants. Sean appeared by me with an evil grin 'Oh sorry, didn't mean to scare you' His sarcastic tone made me despise him even more.
After an hour or so only me, Abs, Scott, Autumn and Marissa remained at the table, as others left for their rooms. I watched as Autumn kept her hand on Scott's shoulder while she talked to Marissa. Scott caught my gaze and gave me a smile. I turned my eyes away from him trying to shrug it off.
'Are you okay?' Abs asked me quietly. I nodded absently without looking at him.
'You seemed much more energetic earlier' He continued 'Did something happen?'
'Things change' I whispered to myself, looking up at Scott, his words from last night ringing in my ears 'Everything changes'
'What?' Abs leaned in closer, trying to hear what I'm saying. I turned my head towards him, seeing his concerned eyes on me. I realized how nicely his eyebrows crunched up whenever he was concerned. I gave him a weak smile and turned back when my name was mentioned.
'Right Mel?' Marissa poked me.
'What?' I looked at her dazed.
'I said that Scott was a party animal from the start of his young days' Marissa repeated.
'Who wasn't' Abs laughed if off seeing I was really uncomfortable talking about Scott.
I gave him a thankful nod and pushed my chair away 'Well I'm stuffed' I announced 'So I'll see you all later'
They all nodded except for Abs who got up quickly after me and followed me out.
'Will you come to the video shoot?' He asked as I waited for the elevator to arrive.
'I don't know' I told him hesitantly 'You wouldn't want me to interrupt you'
'Oh please! You have to come! See us in action!'
I giggled at his excitement and nodded 'Fine...but I'm only going to see you in action'
'Well you can do that anytime' Abs replied in a husky tone with his eyebrow up high. I punched him playfully and stepped into the elevator.
'Marissa why won't you come along to the shoot' I proposed as me and her stood in the lobby.
'I don't want to intrude on anything'
'They won't mind...I'm sure Scott would love to, seeing that you were good friends and all'
Marissa giggled for some reason 'Good friends' she scoffed 'We were constantly picking on each other...wow I can't believe I ever slept with him'
'You what?!?' I almost choked on my words 'You slept with him? When? Where?'
'Oh boy' She rubbed her head trying to understand what was happening 'I thought he would tell you...well maybe not, guys don't really share those things. But I'm sure he would tell Mel...cause she didn't know'
'She was going out with him when you did it?!' I exclaimed almost glad for Marissa.
'Well, yea' She replied nervously 'It was my farewell party and we were both drunk. Scott and Mel had a fight and I was comforting him...sort of. One thing led to another and the next morning I had to leave. I told Scott over the phone that Mel is my good friend and he has to tell her or I will...'
'Did he?' I asked curiously.
'Yes he did' She nodded proudly 'I was so glad but Mel never talked about it so we dropped it'
'Wow...it kind of makes me hate him for cheating like this' I said thoughtfully 'But also I love him more for realizing there are better gals out there other then Mel!'
'Why would you love him for that?'
'No reason' I shrugged it off, still smirking at the thought of Mel's expression when she found out he slept with Marissa. I'm surprised she forgave him...or did she?
