Three Weeks Later......
"I'll be right back" Christian stood up from the couch and walked to his room.
I nodded my head and went back on my phone. "Soo Melody." Prince said.
"What?" I asked in a smile. "Do you actually like CJ cause if you don't you should tell him."
"His last girl cheated on him and that broke his heart." Nas added.
"We don't need another girl coming in his life just to break his heart again." Wolf continued.
"Umm..Okay wow." I said shocked at their outburst. "I..I uh I don't know. I think so." I stuttered.
They all had a look of disappointment "Y'all have to understand I have a bad experience with relationships. It's hard for me to determine if I like someone." I explained to them.
My last relationship was bad to say the least. He was possessive and jealous of every single thing I did. Not to add fuel on fire but he had anger issues. He did all of that just for me to find out that he was using me for popularity and sex and never really liked me. That's exactly why I didn't trust guys, I never know what their motives are and if they're going to be there when I needed them. I was still trying to determine if Christian was different. I wasn't ready to put my walls down just yet.
"Just keep it real with him." Prince said. I nodded my head.
"What y'all niggas talking about?" Christian asked coming back into his living room.
"Nothing" I said smartly. "Nothing" he mocked me and smiled.
I rolled my eyes "Shut up Christian." He laughed and sat next to me on the couch.
"Awee y'all are cute" Wolf teased. Christian put his arm around me "Aren't we?"
"Goodbye" I removed his arm. "All four of y'all are fools. Annoying fools at that."
"Nah not me Mel money. I be minding my business" Nas said.
I smiled "You right Nas. That's why your my favorite." I did a small handshake with him.
"Nas ugly self is always kissing ass." Wolf said.
Prince laughed "Right. Sit the fuck down and shut up Nasir Salvester." Prince said his full name.
Both me and Christian started laughing. "What you doing on Saturday Night." Christian asked.
"Umm" I thought. "Oh I'm going out with my Bestfriend and her sister."
"Out where?" Prince asked. I scuffed "Damn all up in my business. A club."
"Ooooooo" Wolf said. "Christian you just gonna let her go out?" Wolf asked.
"Christian ain't my daddy. What the hell" I made a face. Christian smirked and I stared at him.
He put his hands up in defense "Yea that's what I thought."
"Oh shit" Nas checked his phone. "I gotta go. I gotta get my daughter from my moms house."
"What? I ain't know you had a daughter Nas."
"Yea" he smiled. "Her moms ain't around, so it's just me. I'll holla at you niggas later." He dapped the boys up. "Bye Mel Money"
I waved "Bye Nas" I stood up "I gotta go. I have a important thing to do today."

"What you gotta do on a Friday?" Wolf asked.
"Something important. I'll see you guys later" I rose from the couch.
Wolf And Prince all remained sitting and said bye while Christian walked me to the door.
"You don't have to walk me all the way to my car" I told Christian as I walked to my car.
He smirked "I know but I want too." I rolled my eyes "Alright Christian whatever makes you happy"
I got to the drivers side "Okay were here. You can go back inside now"
He rubbed his hands together "Can I have a hug?" He pouted.
"Uhhh" I said loudly. "Come here" he smiled and walked closer to me. He just looked down at me. "Stop staring at me and just hug me"
He laughed and wrapped his arms around my waist. While I wrapped mine around his neck. He pulled my closer to him and held me tightly.
"Alright Christian let go of me" I said in a laugh while trying to push him off of me.
He laughed in my ear and slightly picked me off the ground. "Christian move." I pushed him against his chest.
He looked at me in my eyes and stood there. "If you wanna kiss a nigga. Go ahead" he smirked.
I rolled my eyes "Nigga get off of me." I got out of his grip. He laughed while I got into the car.
I rolled my windows down "Goodbye Christian."
He bite his lip "Bye Mel. You gonna text me before you go to sleep."
I smiled "Yes Christian I will." He a stern look on his face "I'm serious Melody."
I laughed "So am I." He nodded his head. Hi waved and pulled off.
Since I now had a car I was able to drive to see my brother by myself. I got some gas before starting my half an hour drive to his prison.
I walked in and did the daily and ordinary checks and regulations.
"Hey Tre" I hugged him with a smile. "Hey" He said skeptical.
"What?" I questioned. "Why you seem happier then usual. Gotta nigga at home."
I just smirked. "Oh so you do?" He asked in a smile.
I rolled my eyes playfully "No Tre were not actually dating. But he's good company. I like being around him. Nothing serious"
"Mhmm" he smirked. "You need to stop shutting people out. Remember you only live once. Better take life by the horns and ride that bitch." Tre said.
I laughed and hit his shoulders "Shut up."
He shrugged "I'm just saying. Live your life Mel. Give this guy a chance, take chances. Allow people to let you down so you can learn."
I hugged him "I know Tre. Imma try to let my guard down" I smiled.
"Oh my god your so stupid" I said laughing uncontrollably.
Kamryn was laughing with us "What? Is there something on my face." Darius said with soap on his face.
Kamryn wiped the soap of his face "Daddy you have soap on your face."
"Kamryn are you ready to get out" I asked Kam.
"No" she was splashing the water around in her bath.

"Kamryn you have like five more minutes" I said firmly.
"Daddy" She turned to Darius. I crossed my arms and stared at him.
"Listen to your momma little mama. Five more minutes Aight." He told her.
I smiled "Mhmm" I said cockily. "Fine" She said with an attitude.
"Kamryn don't get an attitude. Or you can get out right now" Darius said firmly.
She continued playing with her bath toys. Kamryn played in her bath for a little while longer and Darius took her out.
"What you wanna put on." Darius asked pullin out some pajama options.
"Uhhh. Paw patrol" she longed to her paw patrol Pajamas.
He nodded his head and put on her pajamas. He finished getting dressed and put her in her bed.
"Goodnight stank" I said rubbing her nose against mom.
She laughed and grabbed my face "Night mommy. Love you." She kissed my lips.
"I love you too. Stinky" I smiled. "Night Daddy"
"Night Princess" she kissed his lips. He walked out the room and turned off the lights.
"I think you should start calling me daddy" Darius said.
I laughed "I think you should stop smoking crack it's bad for your mental"
He pulled me into his grip "You need a hair cut papi" I touched through his head.
"I know. Imma get one this weekend. My batter coming over. So you can call me papi but not daddy woww" he said dramatically.
"It's Whatever feels natural. Remember I'm going out tomorrow night with Ariana and Melody"
"What about Mir?" He asked. "She didn't feel like it" I shrugged.
"Alrighty." He stared down at me. "Kiss" He puckered his lips. I rolled my eyes and pecked his lips.
"Next time I see you were taking it beyond first base" he smirked and smacked my butt.
"Goodnight Darius"
"Goodnight Aaliyah" I shook my head and he walked downstairs and left.

They were playing bodak yellow when my phone was ringing. It was Christian and I decided to answer.
"Hello" I answered the FaceTime. "Wassam" Nasir,Wolf And Prince yelled in the phone.
I laughed "Fools. Why you on Christian phone. Where he at?" I asked.
"He ova here. We just called to make sure you were behaving yourself." Wolf yelled in the phone.

"Nothing. I just wanted I talk to you"
"Awee." He said laughing. "Whatever I'm gone."
"Aight be good." He smirked. "I will." I shook my head and hung up.
After a couple of hours we had done partying. Ariana and I had drunk heavily while Aaliyah hadn't drink much because she was the driver.
I was tired and I was just decided to go on my phone and get Christian since he was still up.
"Melody. Who's all them guys under your picture" Ariana asked turning back to face me from the front seat.
"Which ones?" I asked not taking my phone off my phone. "The only ones commenting" she said and I didn't respond because my eyes were so peeled on my phone.
She snatched my phone out my hand "Melody" I rolled my eyes "Damn Ariana. Why you just snatching my phone"
"I know you heard me bitch. Who are they?" She asked again.
"My friends Ariana damn" I screamed taking my phone out her hand.
"What friends. Since when?" She crosses her arms.
I smacked my teeth "Every since you've been to busy to hang out with your bestfriend."
"What are you talking about Melody"
"You heard me. You've been so wrapped up in your college life and boyfriend you forgot all about me" I raised my voice.
"It's not my fault I'm actually doing something with my life unlike you. Laying in my sisters bed and having no growth." She yelled back.
"Wow Ariana. You think your so much better than me don't you."
She smirked "I mean maybe. Don't be mad cause I'm actually making a future for myself. Unlike you"
I reached to the front seat and grabbed her hair "let go of me Melody"
"Nope. Not until you say sorry."
She swung on me in the small space of the car "Hell no." We were just pulling hair and cursing at eachother back and forth.
"Aye aye stop" Aaliyah said trying to break us up with one hand while still trying to drive.
We finally broke it up "This is why I don't go out with you dumb bitches. Bestfriends and always fighting." Aaliyah said taking her eyes off the road.
"AALIYAH WATCH OUT" Ariana screamed.

Have done countless simulations and even built test stations in space. Yet now, something had gone when they did the same on earth. Bizarre, right?

They all now find themselves on Ethos, eating a mouthful of dirt as they struggled for breath. Some find their situation horrible, others find it relaxing and peaceful. Some see death, others see life. Despair and hope, madness and sanity on an edge. What has fate given you?
