Chapter Eight

“I figured you'd be coming round,” Mel said, opening her door to Johnny. “Did Tyler like his tour of the city?”

By the time Johnny had gotten home and showered, then gone to Mel's, the twilight of the evening was beginning to fall. Mel welcomed him in, although he felt a little awkward after the events of the day.

“I think so, although it was pretty overwhelming. We didn't stay for much longer, we went back to the forest instead. I think it was eye-opening for him though. It's given him a lot to think about, like what he wants to do with his life and stuff.”

“He seems nice. I can see why you fell for him.”

“Yeah, he said he likes you as well,” Johnny said. Then he stopped talking. There was only so much he could say before the obvious presented itself.

“I know what you're going to say,” she said. Johnny waited expectantly. “I just...I don't know what happened, or why Todd acted that way. He's usually so sweet. I guess he must have been nervous or something.”

“That's no excuse. He shouldn't have spoken to you like that. He treated you as if you were a child!”

“It wasn't that bad,” Mel said defensively. Johnny looked at her strangely.

“How can you say that? I felt like I should have said something, but I didn't because I know you can usually handle these things. Maybe I should have...”

“No, this is my problem to deal with.”

“Are you sure? Because you're my best friend and I'm not going to let anyone treat you this way.”

“Johnny,” Mel said in a warning tone. Johnny took a breath and calmed down. Mel was sitting at the head of her bed against her wall. Johnny was perched on the end.

“I just don't get it. Like, okay, I won't say anything if you don't want me to, and if you want to handle this yourself then fine, I'll trust you, but I just don't get why you'd put yourself with a man who treats you like that. If you wanted you could have your pick of anyone at school, or anyone in college. Why him?” Johnny asked with a searching gaze, trying to understand why Mel would put herself in this position.

She opened her palms and shrugged. “If you must know I've been asking myself that question after today. I was so embarrassed you know. I couldn't believe that he would treat me like that, especially not in front of my friends. I can't explain it, it's like I feel a need to be with him. There's something about him I find utterly captivating. He's a remarkable person. The way he writes is just incredible-”

“But it's not just about the way he writes. It's the way he treats you. The way he acts. Mel, I don't want to see you making a mistake and finding yourself in a situation you can't get out of,” Johnny said, scared for his friend.

“It won't come to that, I promise,” she said. Johnny sighed.
