CHAPTER 5

Melio's POV

The move to Florida was great and very smooth, my transfer papers were ready and Mackenzie came to Dublin to get me to Florida hersekf, her word;

"I had to come personally just to make sure you feel threatened enough not to change your mind". This got my mom laughing and got me giggling as well, like Mackenzie can be so extra. Well I am happy she's here with me, it makes it every thing easy for me as I  start afresh, away from my chaotic feelings, away from whatever reminds me of Christian.

"Well this is the part I have been dreading". My Dad said. I do know for a fact that home will feel empty without my presence, mom just got back from Hollywood, and now I am moving. 

"I will call in everyday to check up on you, I promise". I said to my dad.

"No honey, you really do not have too, enjoy yourself, be happy, start over and come back to us whenever you feel ready, we will be here for you." I had booked a ride, cause I didn't want my parents to stress over the whole movement stuff, I gave both of them a big hug, and as looked back that this place, it truly holds a lot of memories. 

"Ok now, Melio, do not squeeze mom and dad to death." my brother said. Well these past few days with him in the house has been crazy, Mackenzie doesn't know when to give up, I really do feel for her, Roman is really good looking, but he must be blind or gay not to want Mackenzie, she's everything a man could ever ask for, pear body shape, thick and voluptuous curves not to mention her beautiful peach coloured lips and ash duo eyes.  

"Do take care of them till you leave ok? And I will ensure to give Mackenzie a boyfriend once I land in Florida". For a split second I could swear I saw my brothers jealous looks, or maybe I am imagining things, but his silence did resonate with my first taught.

We stepped into the taxi and as if on queue let down our tears, for me it was for the memories I will have to keep distant, for Mac, it was the feeling of not getting the one person you want. I mean my brother literally yelled a NO to her last time. I think she finally got it.

"Why does our love life suck?". She asked laughing with tears in her eyes.

"Maybe we both dodged some serious bullets ". I said laughing back in-between sobs. I mean imagine what it will feel like loving men who see us differently from how and what we feel for them. 

"May Miami favour us". Mackenzie said as if wishing for some fairy to sprinkle some pixy dust and make everything ok, well if that option exist, I would route for it. We got to the to the airport in about an hours and got straight to the boarding area, every flight formality was done and we did head to the plane as takeoff was in about fifteen minutes. As I got ready to leave, I felt this sudden relief, like though I was truly calling a wrap on this city for now. The flight was good and smooth, Mackenzie got pictures for her I*******m and I got to play Harrystlyes all through. I mean why not him on this flight to change?

Miami's air felt different, the place was busy but not in a rush, from the airport I could see a serious "normal" that will be surprising to my mom, like how elderly ladies looked sexy and dressed to show off their curves, it almost looked like every single person here was polished to perfection. Well the people sure do for the city.

Our ride to Mackenzie quarters was classy, in her words.

"I want you to experience Maimi as it is, classy, elegant and soft". Well I could agree with that, the city is indeed soft. In about twenty-eight minutes, we arrived Mac's Crib and I must say she got the better of her parents divorce.

"Well you little piece of work did bleed them dry now, didn't you?". I asked obviously shoked at how luxurious her place felt and looked, well knowing Mackenzie I would say this is modest, her parents are crazy rich and so money has nothing on her.

"Well this way I could feel something for them a little". Mac had always struggled to accommodate her parents shortcomings. I mean my mom knew Mackenzie better than her own parents, at some point people thought us to be siblings, cause she was mostly at my place. My friendship with Mac will always remain unforgettable. During one of our first grade parents visit, Mac literally ran to my mom and asked her to be her mommy, as you can imagine I was infuriated , well here we are today, best of friends.

"Ready to go shopping?" I looked confused, cause my initial plan was to get rest and get ready for Monday.

"If you want to party, by all means do that yourslef, Mackenzie I just got here". I said not leaving any room for suggestions.

"No, your mom gave me some money to help you get clothes that speak your age, not this Nursing dress you have. So get yourself ready we leave in five Miss". We that she walked out and left me hanging. I should have suspected something like this will happen when my mom asked to speak with Mac alone. For a shopping spree I think I was a bit over dressed. 

"Mackenzie isn't this outfit a bit too much for a shopping spree?" I asked clearly shocked at whoever was that reflection, cause it most definitely wasn't me."

"You see Melio, you look hot, I mean smoking hot. Why hide behind those big jean and sweat shirt? Show your curves more often, I mean you have the body, why hide it?"

"Your mean the body that got Christian running for his life? Yeah right". I said recalling how the dude literally wanted us to be a secret.

"I will say it till the end of the earth, Christian is a loser for letting you go. Alright enough talk about none existing species, now let's get you something smokey for Maimi's College life, let them know what Dublin beauties look like."

If you want to die, just go shopping with Mackenzie, girl would buy the mall if only they could fit it in a bag.

"I got this for you, try it on!". I looked at her confused.

"Silly, your sister mentioned you have a christening to attend in her honour, and begged not to let you handle your wardrobe, so I am keeping my end of the bargain". She said smiling like she just won a lottery ticket or something. 

"I mean the event isn't till the next three weeks, So why get a dress now?" I asked clearly annoyed. Why do they always think I do not know how to dress?

"Well, we do not want a 'oh no! I do not have what to wear situation'. Which will then lead to you picking whatever you want." She said that with some sort of icky expression.

"Seriously my choice of clothing is perfect for me". I said looking serious

"Well honey, you look like a tyrant in your choice of clothing and a clowney type of tyrant". Is this girl actually Mr friend or what. At this point I just gave, allowing her give me whatwver makeover she felt I needed. Around 6 we were done shopping. I could see the staffs smiling as we left, yeah right we haloed them Clear a lot of stuffs.

We had pizza for dinner and the rest of the evening and the following day went by smoothly. Monday came and I had to rock my new outfits, to be honest after seeing what college kids here wear, I am happy I let Mac change my wardrobe.
