Chapter Seven - Freak Accident Of Nature

Okay, so this has officially been the WORST day of my life. It’s now 4:30 in the morning, after shooting ALL freaking day on this video. I hate it. I hate this song. I hate Nick. I hate Jive and Arista Records. I hate L.A. Reid. I hate Francis Lawrence. I hate Jane and Bob for having Nick.

I hate everybody.

I take that back, these skittles I’m eating are pretty good.

So the video shoot - it was the worst experience. Actually the first few parts weren’t that bad. I was shooting alone in bed, and Nick wasn’t around. So that was great. I actually enjoyed that part. I was, like, naked basically and lying in silk sheets. My hair was kind of curly and wild looking as if I was waiting on “someone” to come home, which is what Nick will be doing during that part, driving home in the rain.

Then I had a break while Nick was shooting his parts against a green screen in another studio a few miles away and Bianca came to the set and hung out with me. After Nick finished his parts, we had to come back and do the ending, where he comes “home” and we - uh, you know.

Make love.

Good god, having to do that period, much less in front of everybody else, including Bianca who was seriously wanting to laugh her ass off was just horrible! It took three takes before Francis was satisfied and oh man we got into the hugest fight, Nick and I did. I threw a bottle of water at him and hit him in the head. He tried to run after me but I ran out of the bedroom and into my dressing room. Thank god he’s sitting up front with the driver because we would probably kill each other again.

Ugh, god I swear when this video is finished, I don’t want to see it. Right now, I just want to go home, and sleep in my own bed, and pretend I never had to make out with Nick tonight. God and I need a bath and shower too. Put that at the top of my LIST.

God I hate my life.

“Thanks!” Nick said as him and Melinda walked into the house and he shut the door back, setting the alarm, “4:45 a.m. Atleast it’s over.”, he said as he looked over at Melinda who as holding her messages, “Maria’s not here is she?”

“No Nick, she leaves to go home at night so you’ll have to wait until morning to get something to eat.” Melinda said as she looked up at him.

“God I swear you are such a fucking bitch.” Nick said as he shook his head, “I mean you so fucking embarrassed me tonight.”

“Bruised your ego?” Melinda asked as she rolled her eyes and began to walk upstairs.

“My ego? Fuck no, throwing a god damn full bottle of water at me!” Nick yelled, “You could have knocked me out or broken my nose!”

“Yeah well you shouldn’t have fucking called me uptight! I wasn’t uptight, it’s just who the hell was laying there kissing!” Melinda yelled back at him, “I’m a fucking professional or I try to be. I’m new at this stuff and I get fucking nervous okay? Plus, I hated kissing you! I hated your lips on me!”

“Trust me, I didn’t like them being there.”

“Good, because I hated it!”

“Good!” Nick screamed, “Stuck up bitch.”

“Stuck up bitch?!? You haven’t seen a stuck up bitch yet Nick.” Melinda said, “That’s all you can ever say to me. I’m spoiled. I’m a bitch. I’m a wanna be rock star -”

“Well that’s all you are.”

“Well excuse the fuck out of me. Atleast I’m not in a boy band and trying to be the next Bryan Adams you fucking wanna be!” Melinda screamed as Nick looked up at her and started running up the stairs. Melinda dropped her messages and started running up them with Nick running right behind her, “Stop it!”

“Fuck no!” Nick screamed as he grabbed her arm and slammed her against the wall, “You’re calling me a fucking wanna be?”

“That’s all you are.”

“That’s all you are.”

“Atleast I’m fucking original. You’re CD either sounds like ‘Blue Monday’, Backstreet Boys, Bon Jovi, and Bryan Adams.” Melinda said as she gave him a dirty look, “Face it, you’re a gonna be like Joey McIntyre or Jordan Knight in a few years, TRYING to sell a solo album and you can’t do shit.”

“Fuck you.”

“No fuck you. You know it’s the truth. You’re nothing.”

“I’m nothing?!? Look who took her fucking clothes off in a video today! Oh Daddy’s gonna be mad about that!” Nick yelled, “Look how low you’ve stooped.”

“You were kissing me all over my body -”

“Your back and shoulders. That’s fucking all because I would slit my fucking throat before I kissed you anywhere else.” Nick said as Melinda shook her head at him.

“You’re worthless.” Melinda muttered, looking at him.

“Fuck you! And you’re not worthless?!?” Nick screamed at her, “Why the hell don’t you get the hell out of Daddy’s house and live on your own. You’ll see what the real world is like. You’re not in fucking high school anymore Melinda! You can’t be the most popular girl anymore. You’re stuck out here with people like me and they don’t like wannabe’s in this world -”

“You don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“So tell me Mindy, who exactly did you fuck to get a record deal huh?”

“FUCK YOU!” Melinda screamed as she tried to push him away and Nick leaned over, kissing her intensely. Melinda tried to push him away until finally she gave into the kiss, and began kissing him back. They continued to kiss, with their mouths never leaving each other until finally Nick moved his hands from her arms and moved them up to her front and ripped her shirt open, pulling it off and tossing it on the floor.

Melinda moved her hands down and began to pull his shirt over his head while kissing him and broke away long enough for him to move it over his head and he leaned back in, kissing her deeply again. She moved her hands down and started to unfasten his jeans as he moved his hands under he skirt, pulling on her panties, and ripped them off, throwing them on the ground. She moved her hand down in his boxers and pulled them down a little when he lifted her up off of the ground, and slammed her back into the wall.

She moved her arms around his neck and wrapped her legs around his waist tightly as he entered her in one swift move. She whimpered against his lips a little as they continued to kiss each other profoundly. He began moving in and out of her slowly at first, but began moving into her a little harder and faster, as he would press her body against his.

Nick began to move his lips away from hers and started to kiss down her neck, sucking on it lightly as he thrusted into her deeper and deeper. Melinda wrapped her arms around his shoulders even tighter, holding onto him as she wrapped her legs around him too, so tight that he could barley move. When she did that, he grabbed onto her and moved them both down onto the floor, in the hallway in front of her bedroom and entered her again.

He leaned back down, kissing her deeply as he started to move inside of her even faster, feeling her tighten around him. As Melinda began to moan louder, Nick knew she was getting close and moved harder into her, feeling her breath gasp into his mouth every time. Her fingernails pressed into his back as he let out a few moans himself and she tightened her arms around his neck as well as her legs around his waist, cumming. A few seconds later, Nick felt his own release and slowed down but stayed right on top of her, both of them holding on to each other, still kissing.

Then they stopped kissing and looked at each other.

“Oh..”

“My…”

“Fucking..”

“Oh my fucking god!” Melinda screamed as Nick moved out of her slowly and backed away from her, “Oh my god.”

“Oh god damn.” Nick said as he reached over, grabbing his shirt and put it over his lap, “Oh fuck.”

“What… What the fuck was that?!?” Melinda screamed as she back up against the other wall, sitting on the floor, “What was that?!?”

“I don’t fucking know!” Nick screamed back at her as she put her hands over her face, “Oh fuck I wanna die.”

“Uh god damn I need a shower!” Melinda yelled back as she stood up off of the ground and pulled her skirt down, leaning over to pick up her panties and shirt, “You stupid fucking! This was a -”

“Oh I don’t give a god damn what kind of shirt it was!” Nick yelled back at her as she kicked her shoe off, hitting Nick in the leg as she stumbled in her room and slammed the door. Nick sat there, leaning his head against the wall, shaking it back and forth, wondering what the fuck just happened and what the hell got into him.

Melinda walked into her room, and dropped her shirt and panties on the floor, kicking off her other shoe, and leaned up against the door as he it shut. She stood there shaking a little wondering what that hell had just happened and why it happened and what got into her.

She shook her head and walked over, looking into the mirror to see her hair all messed up and her bra half hanging off of her body. She moved her hands to her the back of her skirt, unzipping it and slipping it off so that she could go and take a shower.

She walked over to her bathroom slowly, turning the hot water on in her shower and slipped her bra off, tossing it on the floor before stepping into the shower. She let the water run over her head and her hair as she closed her eyes, putting her hands over her face.

Then she started to cry

“Okay.” Nick thought as he walked out of his room a little bit later, looking at the wall and the floor in the hallway, “We were fussing. I slammed her against the wall.”, he said lightly as he scratched his head, “How we wound up doing that I don’t know and -”

“God.” Melinda said as she opened her door and slammed it back, “Nick leave.”

“Dude, I’m fucking confused, hold up. What happened?’ Nick asked, “I’m trying to figure it out.”

“I don’t know.” Melinda said as she opened the door and looked at him with her hair all combed down wet and her long pajamas on, “We were fussing and the next thing I know we’re on the floor doing that.”

“Fuck.” Nick thought as he ran his hands over his face, “Um, I’m sorry.”

“Yeah.” Melinda said as she crossed her arms and looked around, “Just don’t do that again.”

“Me?!?” Nick yelled, “Listen, I did not rape you!”

“I know, but you kissed me.” Melinda said, “I gave in.”

“Fuck.” Nick muttered as he leaned against the wall and then jumped, looking back at it, “God, fucking wall.”

“Just let’s not let anything like that happen again okay?” Melinda asked, “We did the song and we did the video. That’s it. We won’t see anymore except on holidays.”

“Right.” Nick said as he swallowed and looked around, “You know, I blame it on the video.”

“Right.” Melinda said, shaking her head, agreeing with him.

“All those candles and shit probably got us both horny and we were fighting and our hornyness just took over -”

“I wasn’t horny Nick.”

“Don’t mess up my theory here now.” Nick said as he scratched his head, “I’ll stick with my theory.”

“Take your theory and shove it up your ass. I’m not horny.” Melinda said, “I just feel sick now.”

“I felt like I couldn’t get clean enough.”

“Yes me too.”

“That is some fucked up shit.”

“You were probably horny.” Melinda said as Nick gave her a dirty look.

“I was not.” Nick snapped back at her, “I don’t know.”

“Listen, tomorrow you leave. We won’t see each other until like Thanksgiving probably.” Melinda said as Nick nodded his head, agreeing with her, “By then, we’ll be done forgot about and things won’t be awkward.”

“Right.” Nick said as he nodded his head, “I’m sorry.”

“I’m sorry too. Let’s just go to bed -”

“Yes.”

“Separately.”

“God yes.” Nick said as he shook his head.

“I’ll sleep late in the morning. You leave early before I wake up and we’ll see each other at Thanksgiving.” Melinda said, “Agreed?”.

“Sounds good to me.”

“Great.”

“Night.”

“Night.” Melinda said as they both turned around and walked back into their rooms, shutting the doors.

No, don’t say it. I know what you’re thinking.

I don’t want to hear it.

It was a freak accident of nature. That’s all it was. I’m not attracted to him in the LEAST. I don’t know how it happened but that is the worst thing that has ever happened to me. Fuck today has been the worst day of my life.

[[ Makes note to self ]] Do not fight with Nick against sturdy surfaces such as walls or floors.

Uh yeah. Time for bed.

“Miss Melinda! Time to wake up! It’s 2 in the afternoon!” Maria said the next day as Melinda opened her eyes and looked around to see Maria standing there over her bed, “Miss Melinda, wake up.”

“I’m awake.” Melinda said as she sat up in bed and looked around, “It’s 2?”

“Yes and you’ll be happy to know that Mr. Nickolas is gone and he said to tell you goodbye.” Maria said as Melinda smiled a little, “I love that boy.”

“Glad someone does.” Melinda said as Maria walked out of the room and Melinda shook her head.

Thank you god he was gone for good now.
