Chapter 14
It was hot, but not alarming. The breeze kept blowing her hair around making her reach up to tame it several times but she was calm. Looking around she saw that she was in a field, the dried grasses reaching up to her knee as it danced to the tune of the gentle breeze. Her attention was called to a butterfly it was beautiful with its blue and yellow colour she stretched her hand out and it flew away. She watched as it go smiling at it but she noticed something through the corner of her eyes and turned to face it.
It was Toby.
He was standing several feet away from her. He was to her left and should see her but she didn't think he did. He was staring at something in front of him which was on her right so she turned to right. He was staring at someone. A woman with a black hair and blue eyes almost similar to her mother's. She was very beautiful and Melanie felt a pang of jealousy. The other girl was playing with flowers and were she stood was filled with green plants and beautiful flowers unlike where Melanie was. It felt like they were in different places when they in fact stood in the same field. She looked back at Toby and felt heart ache a kind of pain she had never felt before sprung in her and she felt tears come to her eyes as she choked on a sob. Turning, she prepared to run. To put as much space as possible between them but stopped short as she heard Toby's voice. She turned back and saw Toby's smile broaden as he took short steps toward the girl but as soon as he took them, a strong wind blew, blowing away the flowers from her hands and the corners of her lips turned down.
"Maya?" Toby called and the black hair lady turned to him. Her smile was replaced as she looked towards him with a hopeful and loving smile.
"Let's go." Toby said and moved forward but stopped abruptly as a black mist rose behind the girl racing towards her at an alarming speed. Toby repeated his order with a shriek but the girl didn't move, she only smiled. Melanie felt the need to run but couldn't. Her feet stayed rooted to the spot and she wondered if it was the same for Toby that will explain why he was staring at the girl helplessly instead of running to help her.
"Maya please come with me." He begged looking so heartbroken that she instantly felt guilty for being jealous. It was obvious he loved the girl very much. More than he'd ever love her.
"I am with you." She replied, giving him her dazzling smile. "I always am." The black mist was close to her now and Melanie found herself fearing for the girl's life. She tried to move then but couldn't.
"No!" Toby screamed as the black mist finally closed in on her.
♨♨♨
Melanie opened her eyes to a toned ab. She grunted and moved to shove at Bryan but something stopped her.
That wasn't Bryan. Bryan's a bit paler than that.
It was then the memory of the night before came to her bits by bits. She gasped as she realised she just had a one night stand and with none other than the man she had been dreaming of almost every night.
Talk about dreams coming true.
A smile found its way to her face, she couldn't remember when last she felt that happy. Leaning in,she placed a kiss on his bare hairy chest and her smile widened as she saw him stir hoping for him to see her smile as he woke up to know she didn't regret the night before. At all.
Toby slowly opened his eyes to a pack of full and tangled blonde hair. His face was expressionless as he took in the sight in front of him. A frown appeared on his face as he looked downwards to a smiling Melanie. She opened her mouth to greet him when his face scrunched up in disgust. She quickly closed her mouth thinking it was her bad breath.
"Sorry, i--." She was cut off by Toby who climbed out of the bed and walked to the bathroom, picking up his clothes in the way.
What!
He didn't even greet her. Maybe he just usually have a bad mood in the mornings though she strongly doubted it. Maybe he regretted it. She shook her head at that thought.
She slowly got up from the bed with the covers around her, she picked up her dress and pulled it on. She brushed her hair with her hand but soon gave up knowing it wouldn't do without a brush and she wasn't in the mood to brush. She was nervous.
She sat at the edge of the bed twirling her hands nervously in front of her. It was only minutes but it felt like hours until he opened the door and stepped out, dressed in the clothes he wore the previous day. He walked in fastening the buttons attached to the cuffs at his wrist and finally looked up after buttoning it up. He nodded at her and pulled out his purse from his pocket. Reaching into it he pulled out some money and tossed it to her.
She managed to catch it before it hit her square on her face. She stared blankly at him as he opened the door and walked out not grasping what the money was intended for.
'Think think Mel.' She told herself.
'Why else would a man give a woman money after fucking her?'
'Why?'
'Except she's a slut and fucks for money.'
She stared down at the money in her hands and a tear dropped on it.
He thinks she's a slut.
He doesn't give a fuck about her.
♨♨♨♨
"Good morning ma'am." The manager of the hotel who was dressed as a cowboy tipped his hat at her. He grinned,showing her his white teeth she complimented when she first saw him but she wasn't in the mood right now. She glared at him making his smile drop.
Melanie walked towards the exit of the hotel, ignoring the greetings of the staffs who recognised her as the niece of the owner of the bar and hotel.
She walked out through the door and started sobbing. She had no money with her because she left her purse at the bar and it had probably been stolen by someone and Asher had gone back home thinking Toby would take her home.
Toby.
She had finally learnt the name of the man who haunted her dreams and who she thought of every hour of the day. And he had turned out to be an asshole who doesn't give a fuck about her.
She started sobbing as she walked ignoring the stares of passerby who kept throwing weird looks at the lady with the revealing dress with her heels in her hands.
A black car parked beside her and she was grabbed by a rough hand and dragged into the car.
The kidnappers were surprised as she did not put up a fight. They had been tracking her for months and they heard from a reliable source that she was tough and would definitely put up a fight. Her obedience shocked them and they watched as she just stared out the window unseeing.
'Great.' She thought. She just got dumped and now she was being kidnapped by some dudes who were staring at her with their mouths open.
"What are you staring at?" She snapped and huffed then kept looking out the window.
♨♨♨
