Bad Boy Fell Hard by Mushabe Melisa (electric book reader .TXT) 📕

Four months later

"Hold still." Melisa slaps my shoulder as she tortures my face with makeup. I still don't understand why i have to put on makeup

"Oww.." I whine with a pot. Melisa is currently applying makeup to my face as we prepare for prom, which is in the next four hours.

"Ryder won't be able to take his eyes off you but if you keep moving, I'll turn you into one of the zombies from Walking dead." She warns, and I hold still. I don't want to walk around with people running away from me, thinking I'll eat their brains.

As you are probably wondering, in the last four months, a lot has happened. After confessing my feelings to Ryder, we went to Mariella's place and confronted her. She wasn't in a healthy situation at the time, she looked sick and fragile. She said that she wanted to avenge me for taking away 'her man'; it didn't make sense because the harm was done to Ryder, not on me. Ryder wanted to file a case on her, but I didn't want to. It took a while convincing him.

The bartender filed a case on Mariella for possessing an illegal drug in the state, and she was sentenced to a year in jail. I got to speak to Dannon, and it turns out he was assaulted by his father for being in prison that day i reported my case. Him being in jail ruined his career and reputation. I felt guilty and it took a month of my friends and Ryder convincing me that it wasn't my fault. Dannon now lives with his mother and a new baby brother, Isaac. Mariella and the father are still in jail.

Tyler came back for winter break. The first time Ryder saw me with him, he got super jealous. He wanted to beat up Tyler so severely. It was funny and cute seeing him like this. After telling him that he is my brother, his face was priceless.

Ryder and I have grown pretty close in these months. We have gone on quite a number of dates in the past months. There is this date where he picked me up in a helicopter, which is something you don't see everyday. He asked me to be his girlfriend in the weirdest of ways. He took me to this very open ground with grass. He then left me there for about an hour; I was so pissed that I wanted to beat him. As I was going to leave, I saw him fly off an aircraft with a parachute which had the words, 'I LOVE YOU NORA, WILL YOU BE MY GIRLFRIEND?' I remember my heart wanted to jump out of my chest, my blood turned cold, my face was pale. I was super shocked and out of words, my brain lost it's dictionary.

After he landed on the ground, he asked me to be his girlfriend and declared his undying love for me, as i like to call it. It was a very heart-warming experience that keeps playing in my head over and over again, i don't think I'll ever forget that day.

I got over my fear of being in a relationship after what happened with Seth. Ryder showed me that i can actually be loved. He saved me and that made my love for the guy grow. Yes, LOVE! I confessed my love for him finally and i had never seen anyone as happy as he was.

My parents disapproved of my relationship with Ryder at first but later started realizing how he makes me happy. Ryder kept charming them, and they slowly and slowly fell for it, well except for Dad. Albert always gave him the eye and was still creepy. He always used to burst into my room when Ryder was around, and let's just say, he didn't find us in approving positions. I mean making out not anything dirty.

My parents did a collaboration with Parker Co., which is Ryder's parents' company. I wasn't surprised when they came for dinner once at our house. My relationship with Ryder's brother, Miles, improved. I didn't like him for what he did but soon realized that it wasn't all his fault. Ryder has five siblings, Miles, Racheal, Stella, Daphne, and Paul. Racheal and Paul were also adopted. They are charming, and I love their company. Mr. and Mrs. Parker were very happy that Ryder finally found himself a girl. They were tired of his player ways.

Mam is pregnant, left with two or three months to give birth. Albert rubbed the fact that it's a boy in my face. It turns out he was right, and mam is giving birth to a baby boy.

Pat and Cornelius' relationship became serious, and they are now dating. Pat's mam was hard on the guy but finally accepted their relationship. Blake and Carol are still together; they are unbreakable. Lucy and Daniel broke up, but they are still friends. Daniel is now dating a girl from his Spanish class. She is called Sasha. Amelia and Jason started dating, funny, I know. The memory is funny. They were once arguing, as usual, then Jason leaned in and kissed her. Amelia was shell shocked and star-struck, then she slapped Jason. Boom! Their relationship started. Melisa and Cole also started dating after three months of friend-zoning themselves; the tension was too much.

My boyfriend asked me to prom last week; I was so desperately waiting for him to finally ask. All my friends had dates to prom, except for me. he hadn't asked, and when he finally did, fireworks erupted in my head. I was so happy especially at the fact that he asked me in a private beautiful garden here in San Francisco

So right now, I'm getting ready for 'the best night in high school' Melisa's words. Amelia and Pat have gone to pick up their dresses. Carol is having a shower before she gets tortured by Melisa.

"Done." Melissa says as she turns around the chair. I take a look at myself in the mirror, and I gasp. I look different. Not a bad different but a good different.

She mixed a concealer with a gold cream eye shadow with a dark shade to make a natural-looking inner eyeliner. She also applied a glossy lip. To sum it all up, I look gorgeous.

"Wow." I whisper to myself while looking at myself in the mirror. My dark brown hair is in a high bun with a wrap-around braid.

"I know, wait till you put on the dress." She says as she starts to work on herself.
