Melissa kept starring at Alex.Alex stood up as fast as she could with Daniel at her side.Melissa stubled towards them and sat down at a table,still not moving or blinkking her eyes.
"Ok,Liss,what`s your problem this time?"Daniel asked,noticing that Alex couldnt speak.Melissa looked up at Daniel,her eyes a little softer but still as hard as a rock and as cold as an iceberg.
"You and Alex are boyfriend and girlfriend,arent you?Thats why you dont want me.But you do love me,"she said.Alex was about to say something,but thought better of it.She could see where Melissa was coming from and didnt say anything about it.
"No,Melissa,we arent a couple,"he said,running his hand through his thick black hair.
"I..I..I think I need to clean up my face."Melissa said,rushing out,feeling like an idiot.At the sound of the doors closing,Alex spoke up saying,"Glad she`s gone.She could be cleaning up her face for a half an hour."
She could feel Daniel`s eyes on her as he sat down.He brought his head to her`s.Sitting down,she didnt stop him.Alex starred back at Daniel until their lips were inches apart.Daniel made the first move by kissing her lightly.She returned the kiss by kissing him back.His hand went to her face and Alex put her hand on Daniel`s shoulder.His hand moved to behind her ear and stroked her hair gently.Then,they broke apart and stared into each others eyes.
"That was freaky,"Alex said.Daniel gave out a groan and smirked."Actually,i kinda liked it.I dont see anything funny about it,"
Alex gave out a small giggle and looked back at Daniel,wondering if he`s planned this for the 3 years that they`ve been friends.Then,the doors openned againa nd there stood Melissa,only this time,she was running towards Alex as fast as she could.
