The Morning After Was the Way Today Began

The plane ride was a ride from hell. I had to sit between Ryan and Brendon. Thank god Melody was sitting infront of me. When the light went off, she opened her seat belt and turned to me. She saw the look on my face and laughed. Ryan was listening to his iPod and Brendon was reading some book. I was sitting between them with my arms crossed.

"If only looks could kill."
"What do you mean by that Melody?"
"Do you want a mirror?"
"Is my make up messed up?"
"What the hell is your make up to do with the look in your eyes?"
"I really don't know."
"You're a little bit too blonde sometimes."
"Let me color my hair then so people would get it."
"If you do that, I'd shave your hair myself."
"Oh please. You would never do something like that."
"Wanna try me?"
"No."
"I'm bored."
"Go find a guy, flirt with him and have sex in the bathroom."
"Why don't you do that?"
"Done it."
"What? You and done it."
"I really rather not talk about this."
"Who?"
"A guy."
"Name?"
"I rather not say."
"It's your boyfriend right? You are so boring."
"It wasn't Brandon."
"Who then?"
"Still, rather not say."
"Tell me and I'll tell you a secret."
"If that secret involves Spencer and Kate or Jon and Sarah, I already know."
"What about them?"
"You don't know?"
"Know what?"
"Spencer is going to take Kate out of the first night we have off and well Jon and Sarah just came from the bathroom, both looking a little out of breathe."
"How do you know everything?"
"People tell me things, what can I do."
"This sucks. Hey, what you think about that guy over there."
"Which one?"
"That cool guy, who looks like that guy from that TV series."
"Oh that guy from that TV series? Why didn't you say so?"
"Don't play smart with me. What you think about him?"
"Go for it you think he'll be good."
"Wish me luck."

I giggled a little bit when I watched Melody go to this guy. My giggles weren't left unnoticed by Brendon.

"Why are you giggling like crazy?"
"That guy is gay."
"How you know?"
"I saw him kiss his boyfriend goodbye in the airport."
"How do you know it was a kiss and that it was his boyfriend?"
"Guy friends don't kiss each other passionatly on each other lips and don't act like a couple."
"How you notice these things."
"Because I don't have it. Can you move a bit? I want to go to the bathroom."

Brendon moved and I walked to the bathroom, not noticeing that Brendon followed me. When I finished, Brendon pulled me into another bathroom.

"What the fuck are you doing?"
"What did you mean that you don't have that? Less than hour ago you said you were happy with Brandon."
"I never said I was happy with him. Yeah, the sex is great, but that's it. It's all just too physical for me."
"But if you're not happy, why are you with him?"
"Cause he cares."
