Part 3
I watch my last bubbles of air float the the top of the water and pop. It's amazing how something you need so much can dissapear so easily. My eyes shut and I drift to the bottom no longer strugling.
"Mel! Mel I'm so sorry are you ok?" says a frantic voice above me
"Back off" says another voice. Deeper more feirce
"Hey I think shes waking up!" says Lindsey as I open my eyes. I cough up some water and sit up strait. I play along with my excuse and reach for my ankle.
"Oww." I moan rubbing my ankle pretending it was sore. "What was that all about?" I whine to Tristan who sits next to me along with Lindsey, the older boy from earlier and everybody else at the party.
"I'm so sorry Mellisa." says Tristan with sympathetic eyes "I didn't know your ankle was that bad!"
"It's ok don't feel bad." I say smiling "I probly shouldn't have even came if I couldn't swim." I had to forgive him. I always forgive people no matter what, it's a gift and a curse.
"Sorry." he repeats and hugs me tight. I hug him back and smile. Until somebody rudely interupts.
"Really?" says Danny pushing through the crowd of people that are now starting to scatter back to the pool. "What is wrong with you?" she has on a purple and blue plaid tinkini and her hair is in a headband. Not to mention the normal 6 pounds of makeup.
"I was just giving her a hug Danny, chill." he reply calmly.
"Yeah, to bad this isn't the first time." she says and stammers off, but she stops and looks him strait in the eyes. "Oh, and Tristan, we're done."
"Oh I'm so sorry, this is all my fault." I say with a sympathetic voice.
"No, none of it was your fault Mel" he replys kindly "If anything it's my fault, and I never said it was a bad thing. I'm actually happy, she was just a pain!" he says smiling. We both laugh and I walk away to where Lindsey is with Joey.
"Hey Lindsey-" but I get cut off by Lindsey and Joey's hysterical laughter. I smile and decide to walk around by myself, besides I'm used to being alone. I sit down and dip my feet into the pool. I wave kindly to a few people, but they don't seem to notice me. I sit in silence until a cold shoulder touches my back.
"Hi I'm Lindsey's older brother Jamison, but call me James." he says smiling and sits down with his feet in the water next to me.
"Hi I'm Mellisa, but you can call me Mel" I say smiling back
"Oh I know who you are!" he laughs "I just rescued you from drowning!"
"Oh, wow thanks" I say laughing a little "how could I ever-" but I am insterupted again when the bomb goes off. Smoke fills the air followed by ashes and flames. Somebody grabs me by the waist and pulls me away. Then all hell brakes loose.
