me and Savannah were currently getting ready for a wedding

it was Theo and Marcus's cousin wedding and They didn't want to go alone so they're taking us all with them

"so?" Savannah said

"So what?"

"You and Axel?"

"Eh Sav stop always talking about us"

"Because you both are cute! And look happy! And he's different around you, but you're not dating and I was hoping I could punch him and ask him to make you his girlfriend" she said

"no Sav you're not doing anything! We just à had a kiss nothing else"

"Wait?!! A kiss?!!" She gasped

I blushed and turned around trying to covering my face

"Oh my goodness! Oh my god! When? how?! Tell me?!" She jumped excitedly

"On the Ferris wheel Sav, it was magical" I said

"Oh my god! Fucking romantic!!! Awh look how happy you look"

"He's just different, he's there for me and he makes me happy"

"I hope he doesn't break your heart" she said

"That's if something happens between us"

"it will! Believe me" Savannah said "oh god I'm so happy for you, you better look hot and sexy tonight and make him lose his shit"

I laughed at her

"so" I said

"So what?" She asked looking at me

"You seem to talk to Theo everyday, I mean whenever he's at the house, he always knows thing about you that I don't even know like what you're doing and where are you" I said

"Never in a million years Mel! We're just friends. I mean he's hot but we're just friends and we talk regularly"

"As Axel once said, 'friends then loveds'"

"No never!" She said with a frown

"Yeah okay we'll see" she said as she wore her heels "do you think I could survive in this till Luke's party?"

"bring a back up" I said

Luke's turning 18 tonight, so after the wedding we'll be heading straight to a party for his birthday

——

"Hey boys!" Savannah said to Axel and Lucas who were sitting patiently in the living room, Theo and Marcus left a while ago to be with their cousin

"Damn! You both look amazing" Lucas said before Axel turned to look at us, his eyes met mine before a smile appeared on his handsome face

"hi" I said but it came out in a whisper

"hey" he said

"sorry to ruin this ultimate romantic moment but I think it's time we leave" Lucas said before Savannah hit his arm

"Ow!"

"Why the fuck did you ruin that?!" She scolded

"Because we need to leave?" He said

"can we leave?" I said quietly trying to avoid the blush that could appear by any moment from axel's intense look

axel cleared his throat before saying "yeah" while nodding

then we all walked out together and got into the car.

Me and Savannah took the back seats while Lucas and Axel in the front

I caught Axel looking at me from the upper mirror,

"please can you hide me?" I whispered to Sav, she laughed after understanding

"he's in love" she gushed as I rolled my eyes at her

after a while, axel parked the car before we all got down

Lucas and Savannah walked in-front of us leaving me and axel behind

we walked in silence before axel cleared his throat

"you look beautiful" he said his eyes fixed on the place infront of us

my heart fluttered "thank you- I mean.. you look handsome too"

"I always do" he said as I hit his arm before he looked at me and laughed

the place looked beautiful, we found Theo and Marcus before they both made their way to us wearing fancy suits

"You girls look amazing!" Theo said looking at Savannah

I'm sure he directed them to her only

"you both look beautiful, look at you all cleaned up" Marcus said as I hit him

"Are you saying that I'm always dirty?" I said crossing my arms

"I don't think I meant that?" Marcus said as as we laughed

"Look at my boy" Savannah said patting Marcus's back "that suits tho"

"Well let's take a seat then" Theo said leading us

"Oh shit" I heard Lucas cuss making us all turn to him

"what happened?" Marcus asked

"What the hell is she doing here?" Lucas whispered to Axel pointing to a side making us all turn to look

she's beautiful

that's what I thought when I saw the girl he was pointing at

"Shit" Savannah whispered

"What the fuck is she doing here?" Axel said clutching his hands into a fist

"I don't know bro, I don't know that she was even invited!" Theo said standing infront of him

"And what the fuck is he doing here too?"

Stefan is here, that bitch

"who's that?" I whispered in a low voice to Savannah and Marcus

"um" Savannah looked away

"Sav?"

"she's his ex, she used to come to our school" he said

ex?

I wonder why

she's amazing

"I'm leaving" axel said

"What?! No" Lucas said

"Axel you're not leaving us alone!" Theo said "come here, sit. You're not leaving"

we all sat at the table, and I saw Axel sending daggers towards her

"Axel stop" Lucas said

"what's her name?" I asked

"sienna" Marcus said

"she's beautiful" I said

"what do you except? she's his Ex"

ouch that hurt

does that mean that me and him will never happen because I'm not one of the pretty girls?

"oh my god hi" she said when she saw axel then stopped at the table her eyes wide "boys it's been a while?"

damn she's sweet

"Sienna! hi!" Lucas said

"It's been a while how are you?" Theo asked

"Great, life has been good... Hey Axe" she said looking at him

"do you mind if I sat here?" She asked him But he shook his head so then she sat here

"Marcus, my lab partner and Savannah right? I remember you from school" she pointed at Marcus and Savannah

"Yeah, how have you been?"

"great! And who's this?" She looked at me

"That's Amelia, she moved here months ago" Lucas said

"Nice to meet you! I love your dress"

"Nice too meet you too. Thank you, but I'm sure it'll look better on you. You look beautiful" I said with a smile avoiding his looks

she was sweet and her being his ex is kind off making me jealous but that wasn't a reason to be rude to her.

"oh thank you" she said with a smile

"how's Val? It's been a while" she asked Axel but I wasn't listening anymore

—-

By now, the bride and groom where officially married. People were dancing and drinking

Axel is enjoying his time, that's what we all saw. He was laughing with her and talking to her as if I wasn't even there

none of us were, they looked like they both were in love and it did hurt.

i stood a bit far from where the people were, s looking at Savannah and Theo dance

they looked cute together

I felt someone stand next to me and I knew it wasn't him, I knew his smell probably.

"all alone I see?" He said making me jump

"what do you want Stefan?"

"let me think" he said "you I guess"

"me? I'm sorry to say this but don't think I'd ever get with you"

he nodded slowly "so I guess that asshole told you everything"

"no I just hated you from the second I saw you"

"I'm flattered at least you have feelings towards me

"so why are you here all alone?" He asked

I didn't answer

"well yeah same thing, my date is with yours"

"He's not my date" I said

"But if she wasn't here, you would've been never left each other's side" he said and that was true

"I came here with my friends"

"but I don't see any friend here with you, if I kidnapped you, no one would've noticed. Not even him. If you were their friend. Then they wouldn't have left you alone but in the end everyone keeps leaving you. Your father left, your mother, everyone left you"

Ouch

Wait what?

I put some distance between us

But He was right,

He's right about it all

"If I was kidnapping you, I would've have said that. Plus your friend is watching" he pointed behind us

Lucas stood there his hands balled into fists, his face red and his eyes filled with anger

"Lucas" I said

"you son of a bitch" Lucas said but I stood infront of him

"Lucas please no, no"

"Why the fuck would you say that!? You bitch! You fucking bitch, I'll kill you"

"Then do it" Stefan said

"Lucas please no" I pushed him back

"Stefan can you please go, please I'm begging you" I said

"Just because you were nice. And what I said, we both know that's true" he said before turning to leave

"You son of a Bitch!" Lucas yelled after him

"Lucas, look at me" I said "I'm okay, nothing happened, nothing"

"what the fuck are you doing here alone Mel?! Anything could've happened, anything"

"Can you please all stop controlling me! Everytime I go to a place, It ends up by everyone of you yelling at me! I can take care of myself, I don't need you all babysitting me then yelling at me" I yelled

"I.. I didn't mean that.. Mel I didn't" he said "I'm sorry, I- he's just dangerous Mel. If I wasn't here he would've done what he said, he would've done it if he didn't realize that I was here"

"I'm sorry for yelling" I said as he opened his arms and hugged me

"What happened?" We saw Theo, Marcus and Savannah running towards us

"Nothing"

"We saw that! What happened luke?" Theo asked

Lucas explained to him what happened as i saw anger show on theo's face

"That asshole!" Theo said

"Can you please not start a fight?! Nothing happened!" I said

"But anything could've happened!" Theo said his voice raising

"What if he kidnapped you! What if anything happened!" Marcus said

"Stop, guys stop" Luke said

"Do you see? It's like everytime the same thing happens" I said with a bitter laugh looking at Luke

"What is she talking about" Sav asked

"You can't control me, you can't just yell at me for going anywhere alone! Everytime I end up being alone, I get yelled at"

"Mel no, we care about you" Marcus said "you're my bestfriend"

"you're our friend Mel, Stefan have done many thing, countless things and he's been trying to get to close to you. We don't want anything to happen to you" Theo said

"We're sorry" Marcus apologized

"You know that I love you, and I wouldn't want anything to happen to you right?" Savannah said

"I know I'm sorry"

"And whatever he said isn't true. You have us. All. And we all care about you" Lucas said as I nodded

but something in me made me believe Stefan's words

"let's go" Marcus said putting an arm around my shoulder

We walked to the table making axel and Sienna look at us.

"where did you all disappear to?" Sienna asked

"Som-" Luke started but I stopped him

"We were standing there, looking for a girl that Luke could get with" I said as they all looked at me with confused eyes

Sienna nodded as we all sat, I looked at them all and shook my head

nothing will be said to axel, nothing

"did something happen?" Axel asked looking at us but i shook my head

"No, nothing" I said making him look at me For the first time after he saw Sienna

I know that he didn't believe me, because his eyes were fixed on my face trying to find something but I knew he wouldn't

"How about i come see Val and Renne tonight? I miss them" Sienna said

"actually we're going somewhere" Theo said

"But you could come with us" axel said making me look away from them

"fucking dumbass" I heard Marcus mutter under his breath

"are alright?" Sav asked putting a hand on my arm

"he looks happy" I said

"I'm sorry to say that but he does"

"it's okay, they both do. They look in love and they're absolutely adorable together"

"If she's not that sweet then I would've hated her but I don't think I can. It's just you both have feeling for each other. You kissed and now all he has been doing is talking with her and laughing, not even saying a single word to you"

"It's okay"

"No it's not"

"Sav-"

"I can't hate her but I can hate him so I'm hating him now" she said making me laugh
