Freshly showered and changed into her own clothes, Melody felt trapped. If she left her room, Peggy was going to want to talk about last night. Melody didn't really see that conversation going any better than the previous one had. As much as she loved her bestie, right now she was being a royal bitch. And Melody didn't understand why Peggy had such an issue, but she wasn't okay with it.

She didn't want to fight. She didn't want to have to defend herself or Kawan or what she wanted.

Why was that so hard for Peggy to understand?

Nibbling on her lower lip, Melody stared at her bedroom door. Maybe she was overthinking things. Maybe, now that Peggy had had time to cool down, she'd realize that she was being unreasonable.

Sure. And pigs were doing cartwheels in the sky right now.

This was kind of her fault, she realized. It was so much easier to just go with the flow when it came to Peggy, but that had turned her into a little bit of a doormat. Melody didn't like thinking of herself that way, but the truth was that she was constantly doing what Peggy wanted her to do. Because it was easier. Because she didn't want to fight.

Or, truthfully, because she hadn't felt like the fight was worth it. Was Kawan, and what he offered, worth fighting with Peggy? She really hoped the answer was yes.

Steeling herself, she made herself walk out of the bedroom and out to the living room where she could hear the television blaring. She made a face when she got there. Peggy was watching one of the trashy reality TV shows that she loved and Melody hated.

It probably wasn't a pointed dig at Melody. At least, that's what she told herself.

Peggy didn't even look up at her. She was sitting on the couch, arms crossed over her chest, glaring at the television. Everything about her posture said ‘Fuck off’. The desire to confront all the ugly things she'd said slid away as Melody looked at her.

Whatever. Peggy could think what she wanted. She couldn't tell Melody what to do.

That didn't mean Melody wanted to hang out here either.

"Where are you going?" The question bristled with hostility as Melody picked up her purse.

"Out." Melody could have told Peggy that she was planning on heading over to the university and losing herself in work for a while but... she didn't owe Peggy any explanation. Or maybe this was her way of trying to make Peggy confront her again so they could have it out? Ugh. How passive aggressive. But also easier than being the confrontational one.

"Back to the pedo-perv?"

"Stop calling him that." Melody whirled around, glaring at the back of Peggy's head, because she hadn't even turned around to fight with Melody. For a moment she pictured herself slapping Peggy across the back of the head, as if attempting to slap the bitch out of her. Ugh. Not worth it though. Talk about a friendship ender. Right now she was doing her best to salvage the friendship, even if Peggy was being a horrid bitch.
