Storm's POV

When I get to the front door I open it but then it's instantly slammed shut right in my face. I turned around and groan. I'm so mad right now I don't know what to do. Imagine already being mad and just getting fuel added to the fire.

"You're not going anywhere Storm!" Josh yelled. I can see the anger in his eyes. Well guess what Josh, I'm just as mad as you are.

"I'm going to get my children from the bitch you left them with" I said and turn around but he turns me back around.

"You're dodging this letter like you were trying to hide it from me or something" He says and I started laughing. I then realize that all of our friends were watching us argue.

"Oh please. I have no reason to hide anything from you" I said.

"So explain this Storm!" He yells waving the piece of paper in his hand.

"There's nothing to explain Josh! Whatever you read is what you read!" I yelled throwing my arms up.

"Ayo what does it say? I wanna know" Dior says and I rolled my eyes. Here we go.

"You wanna know Dior??? I'll gladly read it to you" Josh says with a smile on his face.

Dear Melo,

Man, things aren't the same without you. Words can't explain how much I miss you. I miss your laugh, I miss your jokes, I miss your touch, I miss your forehead kisses, I miss your smile, but most importantly, I miss you being there for me. I miss you being at my side when something was wrong or if I just needed company. I remember the times after all of your heartbreaks, I'd come over after work and let you cry on my shoulder and listen to you say why girls ain't shit. Man I wish I can do that again. I remember you always being there when no one else was, when it came to me just needing a good laugh, someone to grab a bite with, someone to cry with, or even just a phone call. It was always you and I thank you. Even that amazing moment we shared in your room that night, I knew that you'd never leave me. But here we are today, and you're not here. I'm sorry, it's my fault that you got shot and if I can change how things turned out, I would. But sadly I can't. I'm glad I was the one who you shared your last everything with and final moments. I'll never forget our last laugh, our last argument, our last hug, or last kiss. I promise to follow through with your requests and keep our promise. Rip my amazing best friend. No one can ever replace you, king.

I love you❤️

He read out and everyone looks at me. I look at Peyton and she just looks away from me. She then gets up and walks away.

"Peyton" I said but she ignores me and continues to walk away. Oh no...

"Wow Storm, some best friends you guy were" Dior chuckles and I glare at him.

"Shut up Dior" I said and he goes quiet. I then turn to Josh.

"Thank you for sharing your amazing reading skills Josh. That was beautiful" I said sarcastically while clapping.

"This isn't funny Storm" He says shaking his head at me.

"What's your issue! Tell me!" I said while I walked up to him.

"My issue is that I was always right about Melo and you. It's always "Oh I don't want Melo", "Melo doesn't want me". But yet y'all was fucking on the lows and no one knew" He chuckles shaking his head. I bit my lip looking down.

"Why didn't you tell us you and Melo had a thing?" Mikey asks

"Melo and I never had anything going on" I said looking down.

"That letter says otherwise" Star says laughing.

"Sounding like friends with benefits, psh I wish I had one of those" Dior says chuckling.

"We weren't" I said rolling my eyes.

"Have you cheated on me with LaMelo?" Josh asks me. I look at him like he's stupid.

"What of course not!" I said and he nods.

"So when did y'all sleep together?" He asks.

"You and I weren't together when I was sleeping with him" I said sighing. His eyes then widen.

"So you had sex with him more then once?!" He yelled in disbelief.

"Wow Storm" Shaqir says.

"It was only twice, and no feelings were attached. We did it just to satisfy our needs" I yelled back.

"So when's the last time you guys kissed?" He asked.

"The night he died Josh" I said and he tilts his back. He walks around laughing to himself.

"You kissed Melo before he died?" He asked.

"Yes"

"You kissed my friend before he died?" He asked.

"Yes"

"You kissed Melo while we were together, engaged matter of fact" He says.

"Yeah Josh! What's so hard to understand?" I said throwing my arms up. I'm so heated right now.

"So you also kissed your best friends boyfriend?" He says and I bit my lip. Storm be careful with the words you're about to say.

"Yes Josh. What else do you wanna know?" I asked him.

"I don't know you tell me since you like to hide things from me" He says laughing.

"Yea I wanna know too" Jalen says folding his arms. I looked at him and everyone else as they had the same mad expression on their faces. Why do I feel like I'm getting attacked. You know what, fuck it!

"Ok let's see, remember those times I said I was out at late night shoots? I was with Melo because he was upset and needed a friend. The nights when you were gone and messing around with girls behind my back when you were away for you games, Melo would come over and cook me a meal and we'd watch movies for hours so I won't be upset about you doing who knows what behind my back. And oh my favorite, that expensive charm bracelet I got. Yea Melo got that for me" I said as I stood in his face. He then looks at me confused.

"C-Charm bracelet? But didn't you just get that?" He asks.

"Yea, Melo had it made for me for my 23rd birthday but I recently got it from the jeweler" I said to him.

"And you didn't tell me?" He asks. I can see the hurt in his eyes. I wonder if he can see mines.

"I'm telling you now aren't I?" I said and he sighs. He steps back and rubs his face. I sighed as well and looked down. Man I'm really in the hot seat.

"How could you let me date Melo knowing that you guys had history" Peyton says as comes back.

"Peyton look-"

"Just answer the question Storm" She says. She looked sad. I'm sorry Peyton.

"Melo has had his heart broken way to many times and he just needed a great girl. When you guys met for the first time, I seen the way you guys looked at each other. I knew then and there you and Melo would be perfect for each other. What Melo and I have done in the past has nothing to do with you guys being together" I said to her.

"Storm you know I how I am" She says sighing. Peyton was the type of person to not talk to anyone any of her friends talked to. Even if you didn't talk to the person, If you shared some kind of kiss or some feelings, she wouldn't go for that person because she finds it disrespectful.

"Peyton I know that, and I'm sorry ok" I said to her.

"What was the last thing Melo asked you to do?" She asks. I'm stay silent as I look at her.

"Tell me Storm, please" She begged. I took a breath in before breathing out.

"He asked me to take care of you and LJ" I said and everyone's eyes widen. She looked at me a bit confused.

"So you begged me to move here and live with you and Josh because Melo told you too....I thought you did it so we can be closer. And then you knew I was pregnant before I did and didn't tell me? Are you serious Storm?" She says as her voice cracks.

"Of course I wanted us to be closer too. But Melo wasn't here to help you raise LJ so I did. I told you I was sorry Peyton, what do you want me to do now?" I ask her.

"LJ and I are moving out" She says and looks down. Hearing her say that made me frown. Peyton...

"Peyton please don't leave" I said pulling her hand.

"I think it's time I go. Thank you for everything Storm" She says smiling lightly. She then walks upstairs. I turn to Josh and he just stares at me in disappointment. Ugh not that look.

"Someone say something please" I said as I bit my lip.

"So what are you gonna do now Storm?" Star says. There we go.... my last button pushed.

"I don't wanna hear you Star. So shut the fuck up, respectfully" I said putting my hand up.

"I'm sorry could you repeat that last part one more time" She says standing up, but Jalen tries to pull her down.

"I said to shut the fuck up respectfully. All day you've been pissing me off and you just won't leave me alone. I've had it with you" I said walking up to her.

"Don't get mad at me because you're in the hot seat. I told you things would come crashing down on you and you didn't listen to me. So answer my question Storm" She says and stands in front of me. My hands balled up as my leg shook. The anger running through my veins was unbelievable, even to me. All day I've felt like shit and everyone just keeps making it worse. I should've stayed on the island.

"Your hand is shaking like you wanna do something" She says looking at my hand.

"Star that's enough" Heaven says as she stood up.

"No Heav, it's ok. All of those emotions bottled up in Storm, I want them to come out. I want her to let go" She says.

"I'm not going to" I said shaking my head.

"But I know you want to" She says shrugging. She was right... I did. I really wanted to. But I can't. Especially not in front of everyone. I was so angry at everything that I wanted to cry. But I was holding it in. I put my hand but catch myself as I put it back down. She looks at me and smirks. I looked at everyone as they stared back at me, I hate being the centre of attention like this.

I let go of my hand and turn around to walk away. I open the door and speed walk towards my car. I get in, turn it on, and drive off. Even without putting my seatbelt on. I looked at my hands on the stirring wheel as they shook. My eyes became blurry as the tears burned to fall.

"No! You're not gonna cry Storm" I said to myself. As I drove I couldn't help but think.

I wish we could trade spots right now Melo...
