Melody's POV:I couldn't help but flinch as harsh sunlight made me open my eyes. My head was pressed lightly against someone's chest. I didn't have to look up to see who it was.I blinked twice before pressing myself closer against him. In response I felt him wrap his arm around me.Seconds passed by until I was sure I couldn't just push all those thoughts away. I didn't want to think about it. Not a single thing.But those thoughts were banging against my skull, wanting to be noticed. I closed my eyes and held onto my breath.Sudden flashes crossed my brain. Everything that I saw yesterday. Everything that I remembered now. I couldn't even imagine myself pulling away from Asher. I wanted to lay still forever.I didn't know what feeling was overwhelming me at this point.Knowing that it was Asher I lied to. It was him who always trusted me and all I did was lie to him.I pulled away and sat up. I don't think I wanted to cry anymore. But something inside me was still crying. I just wan

Melody's POV:What I had imagined once I'd get my memory back was everything getting happier and alive once again. For some reason, it turned out to be the exact opposite.Mainly because my missing memory had been gone for a reason. I hadn't been ready. And now that I knew it, I'm sure why I wasn't ready to accept it.But I had promised to try and move on. Everyone had already moved on. Only I was left behind spending my entire weekend with Asher. I hadn't been ready to leave him and face the reality. I was scared what I'll face.Until today.When I went back to my college, I was expecting something different. After all, Riley had been there with me. The girl who can't keep such kind of an incident all to herself. Thinking that she wouldn't have told anyone would be impossible for me.I couldn't blame her.Surprisingly, when I went back, I didn't notice people staring at me. Nobody glanced at me the second time. Everyone looked normal.But once I opened the door to my dorm, I knew I w

Melody's POV:As expected, dad hadn't taken the news as easy as Amelia had. At first, judging from his expression, I knew he didn't believe me. Thankfully, I had Amelia by my side."Melody, this isn't some kind of joke." He had said, looking between me and Amelia."It isn't, dad." I had told him. "I do remember everything."I had told him about my flashbacks just like I told Amelia. He had been surprised. I knew it would be harder confessing this to him than anybody else. But when he had given me a relieved hug, everything had been worth it.Thankfully, none of us talked about my mother. I was trying my best to forget her. Saying that I didn't miss her would be wrong. I did miss her so much. And I knew this wasn't her fault.But I didn't want to face her above all of this. And I think dad felt the same way."Things could've been worse." Amelia said before sitting down on my bed, beside me.I tried not thinking what worse could be for now."So, what are you wearing for the concert toni

Melody's POV:I broke out from my thoughts when I felt a hand on my shoulder."There you are!" Amelia came with a wide grin.I blinked before forcing a smile on my face. Looking back where Asher had been, I didn't see him anywhere. I knew I had to talk to him."Where's everybody else?" I asked her, referring to Selina and Riley."Oh, they're back there." She waved her hand behind her.As if on cue, Riley came followed by Selina."That was some serious performance."I took out my phone, texting Asher.Me: Where did you go?"It would've been, only if that girl beside me hadn't been screaming like shit." Selina said with an eye roll.A part of me wasn't expecting Asher to reply. Not at all. But when I felt my phone vibrate in my hand, I perked up.Asher: Backstage.I didn't see the reason to waste anymore time than I already had."I'll catch a ride back myself. See you guys later." I said with a rush moving towards the backstage. Before I could've, Selina stopped me."Oh no, you're not l

Melody's POV:"So when am I getting a sneak peak on your new album?" I asked as we exited the café.Today was the last day at college, the last day of the semester. Part of me felt sad leaving my friends and part of me was looking forward to the vacations."You aren't." Asher said walking beside me.I frowned and looked at him. "Why not?"He ran a hand through his brown curls. Something felt off about him."Because I'm going through a major case of self doubt right now." He replied.My lips twitched into a smile but I stifled it for his sake."Oh, come on." I nudged his arm lightly. "You and I both know how perfect it's going to be."He looked at me, still in doubt."You haven't even listened to it.""Well, that's why I am asking you to give me a sneak peak." I said with an eye roll.The frown still didn't leave his face. I came in front of him, making him stop."Hey, I swear I would give you a hundred percent honest opinion. If it would be trash, I'll say it's trash."The frown final

Melody's POV:When Asher had made me listen to his new songs, I had fallen in love with him. All over again."Can I point out how much talented you actually are?" I asked, taking off the headphones he had given me earlier. Turning around in the chair, I faced him. He was sitting on the grey couch at the corner of the room, waiting for my reaction."Really?"I narrowed my eyes at him."Are you serious? How can you not have any confidence in this?" I asked pointing off to the large screen.He leaned back on the couch with a shrug."I was thinking of not releasing that one." He pointed off to the song I was just listening. The song that made me fall in love with him. Again.My eyes widened at that."I swear to God, I'm not letting you make the biggest mistake of your life." I said.I saw some of his nervousness draining away as a smile twitched on his lips."Biggest mistake?"I turned around before looking at the screen all over again."I'm sorry, Asher, but I'll have to break up with yo

Melody's POV:When I opened my eyes, I wasn't in that same alley. Or that same street. I didn't have any idea where I was. Except that I was in a car. And the car was driving off to somewhere.It took me minutes before my view adjusted over to the speeding car. Blinking for a while, I straightened up and looked to my left."Cameron?" I heard my voice breaking out the silence.Realization hit me like ice cold water."Didn't think you'd wake up this soon." He muttered before changing the gear and speeding the car.I had to grip my seat from falling over. Looking over at him, I realized how he was the same as I'd last seen him. But then again, he wasn't. Something was different.This wasn't the Cameron who gave me a ride from that disastrous party."What...what are you doing?" I asked, gulping my sudden fear.My head still ached a bit.I saw him give me a glance before back at the road. Both the sides of the road were covered with trees. The night wasn't helping either."I'm finishing it

Melody's POV:"I think that's...more than enough." I said eyeing the amount of flour."No no no. I think it needs more of it." Lana picked up the pack of flour and started adding it in the dough. Which looked a bit rough.I took it from her before it completely fell in the bowl. Not getting the clue that it was a lot, she still stuffed her tiny hands in the dough."Why is it so hard?" She asked before stumbling back at the stool she was standing on. Thankfully, I caught her right in time. But the bad thing was that I kind of lost my footing."Woah-" Asher was right in time to stop me from falling. "-I thought you guys were baking cookies?"Lana straightened up and hopped back on the stool. No wonder she was excited."We were." I poked a finger at the dough. "But someone added a lot of flour."Asher pulled me against him and chuckled."Aw, I thought I was good at baking!" Lana complained with a pout before wrapping her arms around my neck. I wasn't surprised how she liked hugs just like
