Melanie is waiting for the gates of the Virginia Correctional Facility for Women to open. The guard escorting her pushes a large black button, and the gates open. Melanie is finally free. She walks out and does not turn to look back. Five years in that place was five too many for Melanie, especially since she was innocent of the crime she was convicted of. She was convicted of armed robbery, but she took the fall for boyfriend of two years, Justin. Melanie will never forget that night where Justin abandoned her in that corner store, and she was forced to take the fall for the crime. Melanie was just the watch person, but the police caught her and she was convicted for the crime Justin committed. Melanie just wants to put the five years she was in prison, and the three years she was with Justin, all in the past. She never wants to be taken advantage of the way she was by Justin. She is hoping she never sees him again, because she won't be responsible for any harm she causes him. She wants a new beginning, but with no complications at all. To Melanie, people are complications. From now on, she vows to herself that whatever she wants, she has to get it herself. Her heart is on lock down and she doesn't want to get hurt the way she was hurt by Justin. No woman, but especially no man, is ever going to hurt or use Melanie ever again. She will never trust anyone again, Melanie promises that, or that is what Melanie thinks.

HEART DRopS: OMG Nicole that threw me for a loop right there. I was so happy when Chris told her he believed her 1/2 way and that all she had to do was show proof about Christians lies. You got me so hyped when his dumbass confessed and Chris came walking out like "yeah nygga" I know the truth now what" lol. But my heart broke when Christian pulled out the gun and shot Chris and took Melanie. I loved that Chris put himself in the line of fire to save his wife he's wonderful, now I just pray that he makes it and that Melanie gets away from him. Ugh I'm so conflicted right now lol. DAmn damn Damn... Rin It!!!
@logankai25 when I got on with my phone it started back working fine.
Melanie sits with CJ for about an hour, and Chris comes back into NICU. He sits in a chair next to Melanie and Melanie looks at him and hands CJ to Chris.
“Hey lil’ man. You doing alright today? Huh? You look good baby boy. You are gaining weight and you will be coming home in no time,” Chris said. Chris kisses CJ all over his face and then the nurse brings Chris a bottle and Chris starts to feed CJ and Melanie just watches and smiles. Chris is so good with CJ and Melanie just wants to see moments like this, until CJ is fully grown. That is why she needs to figure out a way for Chris to believe that she is telling the truth, and not Christian. Chris really needs to examine the video in more detail and he will see that Melanie is passed out.
“Melanie I need to say something……if you want me to believe you, you are going to need to get proof. I need to hear it from Christian’s mouth too, not just yours. I don’t know how, but you have to prove this to me……you know….. a part of me genuinely believes you Melanie…..but a part of me doesn’t. So you have to convince the other part,” Chris said. Melanie just looks at him and a smile forms across her face.
“Don’t smile until you have the proof Melanie,” Chris said boldly.
“I love you Chris,” Melanie said. Chris just looks at her and narrows his eyes at her and Melanie can’t help but smile at him. He is giving her a chance and she is so thankful!! She can’t even describe how happy she is right now.
“So what are you thinking?,” Chris asked.
“Well……I could ask Christian to meet me at the salon. And I could pretend like I want to be with him and all that stuff, and then he could admit what he really did…..it’s worth a try right?,” Melanie said.
“Yea it is…..I could hide somewhere and just listen and then confront him…..I am going to kick his a** for giving you that black eye….no man every puts hands on my wife like that and gets away with it,” Chris said. Melanie is just so smiling so big at Chris; she is ecstatic right now.
“Chris…..you do still love me,” Melanie said.
“Of course I do Melanie….I could never stop loving you, no matter how mad you made with this situation…..but if Christian is lying and we work it out….the first thing we are going to do is sit down and you are going to talk to me. You are going to talk to me about anything that is bothering you, do you hear me?,” Chris said.
“Yes Chris. I promise we can sit down and talk.” Chris just nods his head and Melanie bits her lip and smiles. She is just so excited that Chris is giving her a chance and she will make him believe her. Melanie leans over and quickly pecks Chris’ cheek and Chris just shakes his head and smiles a bit. Chris and Melanie sit with CJ until 6 pm and then they leave. Lisa and Andrew are going to watch Janiyah for the night again, so Chris and Melanie can meet Christian. Melanie calls Christian to meet her at the salon at 7 pm. He wants to know why, and she said that she came to her senses and realizes that she wants to be with him and not Chris; of course this is a lie. Chris and Melanie drive home from the hospital in their separate cars and then Melanie and Chris head to the salon in Melanie’s car. Once they get to the salon, Melanie looks around to make sure Christian isn’t there yet and he isn’t. She and Chris get out of the car and Melanie unlocks her salon door and they both walk in. Melanie closes the door behind them and looks at Chris.
“Chris I can’t even tell you how happy I am that we are doing this….you have to believe me. If you watched the tape closely, you would know that I was passed out. I was just lying there and Chris you know I don’t just lay there when it comes to sex. I am your wife; you know how I am when we make love,” Melanie said.
“Ok Melanie, you may be right. But I really need to hear the truth from Christian too. I told you only a part of me believes you, but not all of me…..I am struggling with the two parts and I just need confirmation,” Chris said.
“Ok Chris I understand. Trust me after this, you will have all the proof you need.”
“I hope so Melanie.” So Melanie and Chris talk until about 6:55 and Chris goes into the back, where he can’t be seen, but he will be able to hear everything. At exactly 7 pm, Christian walks into the salon smiling big. Melanie plasters a fake smile on her face while looking at Christian. Christian closes the door behind him and walks over to Melanie.
“So you came to your senses huh?,” Christian said.
“Yes I did…..I realized that I really want to be with you, and not Chris…..but….why did you have to drug me and all of that for me to see that? I am sure with time, my feelings would you have grown and I could have seen that I wanted you,” Melanie said.
“Well…..it just seemed like the perfect opportunity. You were very vulnerable that night…..so yea I drugged you while we were at the bar and took the pictures. You were hardly conscious in those pictures. Then I took you home and made the video and you were passed out then. I just did the motions like we had sex, but we didn’t. I only imagined what it would be like if we had sex, I imagine it would be amazing….maybe you can show me tonight?,” Christian said while moving close to Melanie.
“I don’t think so,” Chris said while walking from the back. Christian just looks in shock at Melanie and Chris and then he laughs a bit.
“Oh I see Melanie. You set me up huh?,” Christian said. Chris just looks at Christian and punches Christian dead in his jaw.
“That’s for putting your hands on MY WIFE!,” Chris said courageously. Christian stumbles back a bit and holds his jaw and pain and looks at Chris and evilly. Christian regains his balance and then moves his jaw a bit and laughs. Suddenly, he pulls a gun from his waist and Melanie and Chris gasp and look in shock. Chris instantly pulls Melanie behind him to protect her.
“You know….I felt something wasn’t right when Melanie called him, but I couldn’t put my finger on it…..but Melanie you are coming with me. Now,” Christian said.
“No. Melanie is not going anywhere with you….if you want her, you will have to get through to me first,” Chris said.
“You know I could just blow your brains out right? Huh? One shot, and that would be it for you,” Christian said.
“You keep talking but you ain’t doing nothing!,” Chris yelled. Melanie is so scared right now. She doesn’t know what to do. If something happens to Chris right now, she would never be able to forgive herself. Christian laughs a bit and shakes his head.
“I really don’t want to hurt anyone. I just want Melanie to come with me, so we can start our life together,” Christian said.
“No Melanie is MY WOMAN AND MY WIFE! You are not going to take her with me without a fight!,’ Chris said. Christian just aims the gun away from Melanie and Chris and shoots it and Chris and Melanie jumped at the sound and the bullet hitting the wall. Tears run down Melanie’s cheek because she is terrified. Chris is scared out of his mind too, but he can’t let Christian see that. Chris takes a deep breath and he runs towards Christian and attacks him and they both fall to the floor. Melanie just watches in horror. Chris is holding onto Christian’s gun and he and Christian are fighting over it. Melanie is just watching the struggle and a few seconds later, Melanie hears a gunshot. She just looks and Christian pushes Chris off of him and Melanie sees Chris holding his stomach and she can see the blood going through his hands.
“Chris!!! Noooo!!,” Melanie yelled. She tries to run over to him, but Christian quickly stands up and grabs her arm and leads her towards the door of the salon. Melanie tries to get away from Christian, but he is so strong.
“No Christian! Let me go! Let me go!,” Melanie cried. Christian grips her arm tighter and leads Melanie out of the salon and she is just looking at Chris and Chris is looking at her.
“Chris! Baby I love you! I love you so much!,” Melanie said.
“I love you Melanie,” Chris said weakly. Christian takes Melanie out to his car and throws her in the back seat. Melanie tries to unlock the door, but they won’t open from the inside, only the outside. She is banging on the window and she looks and sees Chris crawling on the floor in the salon. He is towards the door and Melanie can see him. He is mouthing the word help and Melanie is just balling right now. She can see blood coming out of his mouth and she is so scared right now. She notices a man running towards Chris and by this point; Christian is in the car and speeding off. Melanie just watches Chris until she can no longer see him. She just puts her head in her hands and cries so hard. She prays that Chris will be ok. She needs Chris to be ok; she could not stand to lose him. She would also feel completely responsible for this. Just when Melanie thought everything would be better, it all turns around and becomes 100% worse.
Soooooo I hope you ladies don’t hate me for this!! :P but tell me what you think please! And thank you all soooooo much for your comments and thoughts on this story!! I use your comments and ideas and try to incorporate them into the story and I hope you all don’t mind that. Oh and @logankai25 I haven’t found a solution to the problem yet! Every time I try to load the page to this site, it never loads, and says something is wrong with the server. Sometimes the cached page works, which is like a snapshot of the page. But this has happened to me before and eventually it will work again….hopefully! Anyway leave comments and run please <3
@hhfen21 and MizzMonique_25 so were you guys able to fix it? If so what did you do to correct it? I still can't access it. I have cut the phone off, reset it, cleaned history and cookies.
@Logankai25. I was having the same issue on my phone yesterday.
Yesss @logankai25 I was having the same problem!! It would not load the page on my iPod touch, which also uses Safari!! But you ladies have the best comments!! They are all paragraphs and I LOVE reading them!! It's good to know someone really enjoys my writing :) anyway, might add later tonight!!
Wow they so difficult Chris needs to stop run it
Is anyone else having trouble accessing this site from their cell phone? Safari is not letting me come on from my iPhone. :-( I loved the add Nicole. I know Chris is filled with hurt and anger, but I believe he will go back and analyze the tape and see Christian is full of s***. Chris believes Melanie deep down he does, but the tape is making him conflicted. I know in the end it will work out. I am waiting to see Chris kick some ass, because I know it is coming. Melanie better use her street knowledge and know the way to get Christian to admit the truth to record it is to not give him what he wants. She needs to make Christian think Chris has forgiven her, and he will slip and admit so she can record it that he drugged her and nothing happened. I love this story. I am supposed to be studying for my Anatomy test and I am on here reading. Run it.
I'm getting too frustrated. Chris is being just as stubborn as Melanie used to be. Yeah he's hurt, but he's listening to a man that doesn't mean s*** over his wife. That's pissing me off. Christian is fckn crazy && he needs his ass beat. Chris never put his hands on the guys that hit Melanie, he needs to f*** Christian up, confront him or something because this is getting out of hand.
I just cant take this right now, ugh Chris pleaseeeeeeee look at that video again pleaseee listen to your wife pleaseeeee. That hurt my heart reading that scene, Chris is just filled with so much hurt and anger ugh. I so wanna know what's gonna happen with he and Mel and how long before he forgives her, if he forgives her. That moment Mel had with CJ was too cute. Gosh I love this story it brings out to many emotions in me Nicole lol. Run It!!!!
Melanie cried herself to sleep last night; she just couldn’t stop the tears from falling. She is beyond hurt, and honestly no word can describe the pain she feels. Her whole body aches in pain because of Chris leaving. Melanie could only sleep for a few hours last night anyway, and right now she is on her way to the hospital. It’s Monday morning and she is meeting her parents and Janiyah at the hospital at 10 am. She tried to call Chris, but he wouldn’t answer. Once Melanie gets to the hospital, parks her car and walks in, she sees Lisa, Andrew and Janiyah in the waiting area. She smiles a bit and walks over to them. Her parents just look at her and so does Janiyah.
“Hi mama,” Janiyah said shyly. Melanie just smiles big at Janiyah; she really missed her.
“Hey gorgeous. How are you huh?,” Melanie said. Lisa hands Janiyah to Melanie and Melanie kisses her all over her face and hugs her close.
“Janiyah I missed you….I want to say sorry for yelling at you the other day. Mommy is so sorry I didn’t mean to yell….I love you so much Janiyah,” Melanie said. Janiyah giggles and pecks Melanie’s lips and Melanie can’t help but smile. Janiyah rests her head on Melanie’s shoulder and Melanie holds her close and looks at her parents.
“Melanie you look awful….and what happened to your eye?,” Lisa asked.
“Christian punched me in the eye mom,” Melanie said.
“Whoa what? Oh no, NO MAN will ever put his hands on my daughter and live to tell about it,” Andrew said.
“Melanie what happened?,” Lisa asked.
“I went to talk to Christian and I asked him what happened…..and he told me…..he drugged me while we were at the bar. He put date rape pills in my drinks and when we kissed he said I was already out of it….then he said we went back to his place and I passed out there…..but then he made a video of me and him where he made it look like me and him did it….and he sent that video to Chris. I was trying to take his phone away from him so he couldn’t send it to Chris and that is when he punched me,” Melanie said.
“What?!,” Melanie’s parents asked in shock.
“Melanie this is crazy….what did Chris say about all of this?,” Andrew asked.
“He didn’t believe me….he didn’t believe anything I told him…..and he packed his things and he left. He left me,” Melanie said on the verge of tears.
“Oh baby girl I am so sorry,” Lisa said.
“I am telling the truth mom. Christian is the one who is lying about everything, and Chris believes him and not me,” Melanie said.
“Melanie I can’t imagine how hard this is for you. We know how much you love Chris…..he just needs time,” Andrew said.
“I feel like he will never come back to me though,” Melanie said as tears fell down her cheeks.
“Melanie don’t talk like that. He really does just need time,” Chris said. Melanie just nods her head and Melanie sees her mom look behind Melanie and smile and wave. Melanie turns around and sees Chris. He just looks at her and then looks down as he walks towards them.
“Dada!,” Janiyah said happily.
“Hey pretty girl!,” Chris exclaimed. Melanie hands Janiyah to Chris and Chris kisses her all over her face and then hugs her tight.
“Why don’t you talk?,” Lisa suggested.
“Lisa there isn’t anything to talk about,” Chris said. Melanie just looks down and fights tears.
“Are you sure Chris?,” Lisa asked.
“Yea Lisa. I just want to see my son,” Chris said.
“Ok,” Andrew said. He takes Janiyah from Chris and Chris looks at Melanie real quick and then he starts walking to NICU and so does Melanie. Once they get there, they both go to CJ’s incubator and smile. Melanie just admires him and so does Chris.
“You can hold him first,” Chris said. Melanie looks at him and nods her head. Melanie sits down in the chair and Chris opens the incubator and picks up CJ. He is awake right now. Chris kisses CJ’s cheek and forehead and then hands him to Melanie. Melanie cradles him in her arms and kisses his cheek.
“Hey CJ. How are you doing? Huh? Mommy missed you yesterday. I am sorry I wasn’t here,” Melanie said softly. CJ is just looking up at Melanie and she smiles and she rubs his hand and CJ grabs her index finger and holds it. This just melted Melanie’s heart; it made her so happy. She kisses his cheek multiple times and then looks at Chris.
“Chris I-,” Melanie is cut off.
“Melanie I don’t want to talk about this ok? I just want to see CJ and that is it. If you are even going to bring up last night, then just don’t talk at all. Please,” Chris said. Melanie just looks at him and she bites her lip to hold in tears. She looks down and Chris sees tears fall down her cheeks.
“…I didn’t even think I would have any more tears to cry. I cried all last night,” Melanie said softly. Chris just sighs and shakes his head. Melanie looks up at him and wipes her tears.
“I know I can live my life without you Chris, but I don’t want to,” Melanie said.
“Melanie what I say?,” Chris said while sighing.
“I don’t care Chris. I am not giving up on us. I will fight for our marriage and our family. You need to know that I love you and would never ever hurt you. I did not cheat on you ever. Christian is lying to you and you believe him and I do understand why. But I need you to believe me, because what I am saying is the truth.”
“I don’t want to talk about this Melanie.”
“How are you not affected by this? Did you sleep just fine last night Chris? Because I didn’t. I hardly slept at all.”
“No I slept horribly last night. I cried my eyes out. Over you.”
“And I cried over you too Chris…..it has only been one day and I already miss you like crazy. I was at the house all by myself last night and I hated it. I hated not waking up next to your handsome face. I hated going to sleep without your arms wrapped around me. I hated not being able to rest my head on your chest while I was sleeping. I hated not giving you a good morning kiss. I hated you not being with me last night.” Chris just sighs heavily and puts his head in his hands.
“Chris Brown you are the love of my life. I swear on everything I would never hurt you by cheating on you. Christian did drug me last night and made the video to trick you into believing that we had sex. But we didn’t. He even admitted we didn’t. If you watch the video closely and really examine it, you will see that I am passed out…” Melanie stops talking when she sees Chris stand up from his chair. She looks at him and he just shakes his head at her and leaves the room. Melanie just sighs heavily and then looks down at CJ and she smiles a bit.
“Hey baby boy…..you know I love you so much already. And I will do whatever I can to make daddy stay, because you and your sister deserve that. You both are too precious to not have mommy and daddy living together. But whatever happens, you and your sister will be taken care of. Don’t even worry about that,” Melanie said softly.
Just a real quick add nothing special :P tell me what you ladies think please <3 how will Melanie resolve this?!

You are BREAKING my heart!!!! I hate Christian soooooo much I just wanna kill him! I think Melanie should go gangsta and kill Christian.(hehehe)
Run it!
Once again I'm all Emotional from these adds: See I knew it I said it from jump that mother Sucka Christian was nothing but a crazy ass trouble maker and not to be trusted. I had a feeling he drugged Melanie or something but to not only fake pics while she's intoxicated but to DRUG her and then make it look as if she was having sex with him is beyond psycho, what makes him think she'd want a guy that would do that to her? She'll never fall in love with him and wanna be with him after that even if her marriage to Chris does end, she wouldn't get with the person who destroyed it. And the fact that the mother sucka put his hands on her is even more reason she'll never be with him. I hope Chris see's him and kicks his ass. S/N Nooooo Chris don't leave her please, dont leave her come back to the house work it out seek counsling stay in the guest room anything just don't leave her completly pleaseeeeee. Is there anyway Melanie can prove Christian's setting her up at all? Why why why? And Nicole it's not that the stories predictable, your doing an amazing job we as loyal reader and #TEAM Melanie and Chris# know the bond they share and that the things that happened with them would never happen under normal non alchol/drug circumstances lol. (And the fact that we ALL probebly seen one too many LIFETIME movies to guess what happened lol) Your doing a great job keep it up and looking forward to seeing the outcome. You still manage to surprise us with the twist and turns this story has. Run It!!! -Moe
I knew from the way Christian entered the story he was crazy. He was too perfect. I'm hoping achris gets the videotape analyzed and can see it was doctored. I feel for Melanie but she brings it on herself. Chris warned her about Christian she didn't listen. I'm thinking Jazmine and Ashley need to make an appearance to help her get Christian on tape saying nothing happened. Chris should know by Christian sending him pics and video that should be a red flag that all may not be what it appears. Chris should analyze the tape to see if Melanie was passed out. She's his wife he knows how she is in bed. LOL Chris should also know that Melanie wouldn't willingly give his number to Christian. I like how you are breaking Melanie down layer by layer. First she had guard up about not letting a guy get close to her, but Chris brine down her guard. Now she needs to see holding things in instead of talking about only causes problems. Run It
Omg My heart is aching right now!!! No!!! Christian's punk ass!! Ohh i wanna beat the s*** outta him. smh Then he gonna punch her. Ida recorded the encounter on my phone for Chris to hear it!! Its just so sad. I hope they work it out and Melanie stops shutting him out.
Melanie really feels the need to talk to Christian. She really needs to know what happened last night, even if it is bad. She sets Chris’ wedding ring on the dresser and then she takes a shower and gets dressed. She then calls Christian and asks him to meet her at her salon by 7:30 pm. Once she is all ready, Melanie leaves and heads to her salon. She unlocks the door and goes in and sits down and waits for Christian. At a little after 7:30 Christian walks into the salon and Melanie just looks at him. She stands up and closes the door behind him and then looks at him.
“Christian……can you please tell me what happened between us last night?,” Melanie said.
“Oh you know we just got drunk and had a good time that’s all Melanie,” Christian said while smiling.
“Christian this is not anything to smile about….how could you send those pictures to Chris?”
“Just thought he should know what you were up to. Your husband has a right to know what you like to do in your spare time right?”
“Christian….my marriage is not something that you can just play with….please just tell me, did we have sex last night?”
“No Melanie….but even if you tell Chris that we didn’t have sex, I can convince him that we did.” Melanie just stares at him in shock. Is he serious?
“Christian….kissing you was bad enough and I don’t even remember doing that. And Chris is already threatening to divorce me. You can’t just lie to him. This is my life you are playing with.”
“So he will divorce you so what? You can just move on to me. We can raise your children just like they were ours.”
“Christian are you crazy? What is wrong with you? How could you ruin my marriage and life like this?”
“Oh I haven’t ruined your marriage yet. But I am about to.” Christian pulls out his phone and Melanie just looks at him confused. She moves closer to him and tries to grab the phone from him, but he backs away.
“Christian what are you doing?,” Melanie yelled. Melanie keeps trying to take the phone from him, but he pushes her hard and she falls to the floor. Melanie quickly gets up and tries to take the phone from him, but Christian punches Melanie in her eyes. She falls back and just holds her eye in pain. She looks at Christian with her free eye and she has a look of shock on her face.
“Christian what did you just do?!,” Melanie screamed in frustration.
“I just sent your husband a video,” Christian said.
“A video of what? You said we didn’t have sex Christian!”
“Nope we didn’t. But when you were passed out last night, I just recorded us. I just got on top of you and I was feeling on you and made you look like you were feeling on me. I got under the covers and did the motions like we were having sex. I had to alter the video a bit, but Chris won’t even know the difference,” Christian said while smirking. Melanie is just shaking her head at Christian. This cannot be happening.
“You know Melanie? I have to be honest with you….I drugged you last night,” Christian said.
“You did what?,” Melanie asked in shock.
“Yea I slipped some of those date rape pills in your drink. When we were kissing, you were pretty much gone, so I know you don’t remember it. Just thought you should know,” Christian said.
“Christian I cannot believe this is happening right now…..I…I don’t even know what to say to you.”
“You don’t have to say anything now. Just let me know when your divorce with Chris is final,” Christian gives Melanie a sneaky smile and then he leaves her salon laughing a bit. Melanie watches him get into his car and drive off. Now what is she supposed to do? Even if Melanie tells Chris everything that Christian just told her, there is no way that he would believe her after seeing the video Christian just sent him. She just fights back tears and then she gets in her car. She looks in the mirror at her eye and her eye is starting to bruise. She sighs heavily and then she heads home. Once she gets home, she sees Chris’ car is there. She just shakes her head because she knows she has to face him and she is scared to. She does not want to see him in any more pain. She takes a deep breath and then gets out of the car. She walks in the house and closes and locks the door behind her. She takes off her shoes and she walks upstairs to the bedroom. She walks in and sees Chris throwing clothes into his suitcases. When Chris sees Melanie, he just stares at her and Melanie stares back. Chris just shakes his head and looks away and Melanie sees a few tears run down his cheeks.
“Chris….you have to let me explain,” Melanie said.
“Explain what?! How you f**ked Christian? I don’t want to hear any details about that,” Chris said.
“Chris I did not f**k him! Me and Christian did not do anything. Christian told me he drugged me when we were drinking at the bar. He even said we did not have sex.”
“You expect me to believe you? Huh? Cuz I don’t Melanie. I don’t!”
“Chris I am not lying to you. I swear on my life I am telling you the truth! You have to believe me! You have to trust me!”
“Trust you? I can’t trust you right now Melanie. Not after the pictures and the video. I can’t trust a word you say to me.”
“Chris please. I am begging you. You have to believe me. You know I would never ever hurt you or cheat on you!”
“Too late Melanie. You did both!”
“No I didn’t!,” Melanie screamed.
“You can cry and scream all you want. It is not going to change anything.”
“So what are you doing? You’re leaving? You’re leaving your family?”
“No Melanie I am leaving YOU! I will never abandon my kids; I will see them as often as I want.”
“No Chris. You are not leaving me. How can you believe Christian over me?”
“Because he has proof!”
“Yea fake proof! He said I was passed out in the pictures and in the video! He altered the video he said so himself!”
“I don’t believe a d**n thing that is coming out of your mouth right now. So just be quiet please. I will be out of your way in no time.”
“No Chris! You can’t do this to me,” Melanie said while balling.
“You?! What the f**k about me Melanie?! Do you even care how much this is hurting me? You just ripped my heart out of my chest and stomped it into a million pieces!”
“Chris I know you are hurting! You think I don’t see that? I see the tears falling down her cheeks and I can see the pain in your eyes! And of course I care, you are my husband! I care about you more than I care about my d**n self Chris! This is killing me! My heart literally aches right now….do you think I want to live a minute of my life without you? Because I don’t! I don’t! I want to stay Melanie Brown until the day I die Chris!,” Melanie yelled through tears. Chris just stares at her in her eyes and Melanie stares back. Chris notices Melanie’s black eye.
“…..What happened to your eye?,” Chris asked softly.
“….It was Christian. He punched me in the eye when I was trying to take his phone away from him. He said he would ruin my marriage and that is when he pulled out his phone and I was trying so hard to take the phone away from him, and that is when he punched me,” Melanie said while wiping her tears.
“……Wait here for a second,” Chris said. Chris leaves the room and Melanie just sits on the bed. A few minutes later Chris comes back into the room with a pack of ice. He sits next to Melanie on the bed and he places the icepack over Melanie’s eye. Melanie just looks at him and he looks at her.
“…..No matter how much I may dislike you right now, I would never want anything like this to happen to you….are you ok?,” Chris said.
“No Chris…..I won’t be ok until you tell me you won’t leave me,” Melanie said. Chris just shakes his head and looks away. Melanie takes the icepack so she is holding it over her eye and she just looks at Chris.
“Chris. I swear to you I am telling you the truth. I would never ever cheat on you. Christian is the one who is lying, not me,” Melanie said.
“Melanie….I want to believe you so bad,” Chris said.
“Then believe me baby! Believe that I would never lie to you. I have always been honest to you. I told you when Christian kissed me that one time at the salon. I could never hide anything from you just to save my own a**. You have to believe that.” Chris just looks Melanie in her eyes and Melanie just looks in his. Chris LOVES Melanie more than he could ever put into words, and leaving her would not be an easy thing for him to do. But Chris feels so betrayed by Melanie and it isn’t right.
“Melanie…..can I just ask you something?,” Chris asked.
“Of course Chris. Ask me anything,” Melanie said.
“Is it something about me? Is that why you can’t talk to me? Do you think I am going to judge you or something?”
“Oh Chris no. It has nothing to do with you at all. You are perfect as far as I am concerned.”
“Well then I don’t understand Melanie….why can’t you just talk to me? About anything? Even if it’s bad?”
“I….I don’t know Chris….I can honestly say I don’t know.”
“Well if you don’t even know….then I guess we have nothing else to say to each other.” Chris stands up from the bed and goes back to packing his suitcase. Melanie just looks at him and puts the ice pack down and stands up from the bed.
“Chris….you don’t have to do this. I do not want you to leave me or divorce me,” Melanie said as tears built up in her eyes again.
“….I think this is best Melanie,” Chris said.
“Best for who? Not me, not Janiyah and not CJ. Is it really best for you Chris? Huh?” Chris just shakes his head while still packing. He closes up his suitcases and looks at Melanie. Tears are continuously streaming down her face and it kills Chris to see Melanie hurt in any way. He knows this hurt her, because he is hurting too and this isn’t easy for Chris either.
“….I…I don’t know what is going to happen with us Melanie. I really don’t. But I just know right now I have to go.”
“No you don’t. Baby please do not leave me,” Melanie begged. She walks over to Chris and kneels right in front of him and stares up at him and Chris just sighs heavily.
“Melanie stop,” Chris said.
“No! Not until you unpack all of your things and stay with me. Please. I just want you to stay with me,” Melanie sobbed. Seeing Melanie like this is breaking Chris’ heart right now. He doesn’t know what to do. Should he stay or should he go?
“Melanie come on. Get up. You are stronger than this,” Chris said.
“No Chris I’m not. You are my weakness. When it comes to you, I am weak,” Melanie said. Chris just sighs and looks up trying to hold in tears. This is getting him all types of emotional. He just shakes his head and he picks up his bags and walks around Melanie and quickly leaves the house. He puts his bags in his trunk and then speeds off. Melanie just hunches over and starts screaming and crying at the top of her lungs. This pain she is feeling right now, aches every single part of her body. Melanie feels her life just crumbled down. She built it up, but she also just broke it down. Melanie doesn’t know what she and Chris’ future together will be and that is her worse nightmare. But she does know one thing: she is going to fight as hard as she can for the man she loves, their marriage, their family, and their life together.
Tell me what you think please ladies! I swear you ladies and I think just alike!! We always have the same ideas lol but I guess that isn't a bad thing as long as the story doesn't become too predictable. Anyway leave comments and run <3
This is such a good story.
You're very talented Nicole && thank you for writing this story I'm really in love with it:)
Dammit Melanie! She just needs to let Chris in! When your trust is completely fckd up its so hard giving someone your trust regardless if they're doing everything right..the fear of getting hurt still haunts you && causes you to hold back && run away from reality so I feel her, but Chris is too good of guy to be treated like that! Too good!
RUN IT!!!!
Smh shame on her... Girl run it.
Omg this is too much they need to fix this Melanie was wrong but everyone makes mistakes dnt le them get a divorce I am very emotional rte now n dis jus made me sad run it I'm speechless
I love the add and I loved the advice Melanie's mother gave her. Melanie needs to learn how to talk to Chris about her feelings. I am glad Chris let her that she makes him feel like he doesn't mean anything to her when she shuts him out. There are so many question marks surrounding Christian. Did he put something in her drink? Did he just make it look like something happened so Chris would leave, because he knew Melanie wouldn't be able to remember. Also, Nicole with the way Christian I wonder if someone he's linked to Justin? I think too much at times LOL I love this story. I check everyday to see if you've updated. Run It
Melanie can’t believe what just happened. Did Chris really just leave her? Is she about to be a divorced woman? This is so surreal to Melanie right now; she is in complete shock. She is just so hurt right now, and she knows Chris is hurt too. But Melanie would never ever want to hurt Chris intentionally. Chris was right about everything though. If Melanie would have just talked to her husband, she wouldn’t be in this mess. She can’t even explain why she shuts Chris out at times, it is just something she has always done, and she isn’t sure how to change it. She knows she made a mistake though, but she can’t just let Chris go. There is no way Melanie would ever be the same without Chris as her husband. She stands up from the floor and she runs down the stairs. She opens the front door and sees Chris sitting in his car. She can see he has his head resting against the steering wheel and it looks like he is crying. She runs to his side of the car and she opens the door. Chris looks up at her and seeing Chris cry, just hurts Melanie so deeply. She knows she is the reason why and that hurts her even more.
“Melanie I love you so much. How could you do this to me? How can you just treat me like I don’t mean anything to you? That is exactly how I feel when you shut me out and that is for d**n sure how I felt after I saw those pictures of you and Christian……I have done everything right Melanie. Everything. I have stood by your side through some very hard times and I have never ever hurt you or betrayed you. I have always been honest with you from day one, but you can’t even do the same for me and you are my wife. You are my d**n wife Melanie, you should not hide anything from me! I don’t care what you are going through, you are supposed to be able to talk to me! It has been hard on me too with CJ! He is OUR son, so any problems with him affect the both of us……I don’t want to just leave you Melanie. You and my family mean the world to me. You all own my f**kin heart. You are the only reason I get up every day and work so hard. I work for you and our kids Melanie, no one else……my heart is broken Melanie and you did that,” Chris said while staring at Melanie the whole time. What Chris said just brought tears to Melanie’s eyes. His words touched her so deeply and also made her feel 100% worse about everything. She just looks down and puts her hands over her face and cries.
“Melanie I love you so d**n much. So f**kin’ much! You’re my wife Melanie! You were who I vowed to stay with until the end of time!,” Chris yelled in frustration.
“So don’t give up on us Chris! Please don’t leave me! I don’t want you to divorce me,” Melanie yelled back.
“But you can’t even talk to me! How are we supposed to have a good marriage if you can’t even talk to me? And then you go out and get drunk and find attention elsewhere?! That is not going to work Melanie!”
“Just give me another chance Chris! Please! I will work on my problems I promise you. Please….just don’t leave me….I could not handle you leaving me Chris.”
“Melanie this would not be easy for either of us….but you brought this on yourself…..I have tried so hard to try and get you to talk to me, but you won’t! So what else am I suppose to do?”
“Just give me another chance. Chris I am begging you. I will get on my knees and beg I swear.”
“Melanie……I think we both need some time. To think things through ok?”
“….Ok Chris. Whatever you want.” Chris just nods his head and Melanie backs away from the car and Chris closes the door and he starts up his car and backs out to the driveway and speeds off. Melanie sighs and walks back into the house, closing and locking the door behind her. She really needs to talk to someone right now. She goes upstairs to the master bedroom and takes her phone from the dresser and sees the numerous missed calls from Chris from last night and from her parents from earlier today. She sighs and sits on the bed, and dials her mom’s number and her mom answers immediately.
“Melanie where the h**l have you been?,” Lisa said.
“Mom…..I was out all last night. I didn’t get back home until 3 pm today,” Melanie said.
“What were you doing all of that time? I swear you better not have been doing that boy Christian.”
“Mom…..I don’t remember anything…..Chris told you about the pictures huh?”
“He sure did and Melanie I am so shocked at you. How could you do that? How could you walk out on your problems and run into another man’s arms?”
“Mom I didn’t do that….I did run out, but I did not tell Christian I was at the bar or anything. He just showed up later.”
“Melanie I don’t care. How could you hurt Chris like that? That man has been nothing but good to you and you have broken his heart.”
“I know mom I know….but I don’t remember anything from last night. I have no clue what me and Christian did. I hope it was just kissing, that is bad enough.”
“Yes that is bad enough. I hope he didn’t take advantage of you and do more because Chris could probably never forgive you for that. And me and your dad are so upset with you. You should know better. When you have a problem, you speak up. Don’t shut anyone that loves you out of your life because that will just end up with people getting hurt.”
“Mom I know…..Chris is very upset with me. He took off his wedding ring and said we were over,” Melanie said as tears built up in her eyes.
“Oh Melanie. I am so sorry. I don’t want to see you go through a divorce. That would break my heart baby girl…..but you know you were wrong. You broke Chris’ heart,” Lisa said.
“I don’t want him to leave me mom. I love him so much. I want to work it out.”
“I know you do baby, but Chris is going to need time to think…..I really hope you didn’t permanently end a good thing, just for what you thought was a temporary solution to your pain or problems…..Melanie trust and good communication are the base for a good marriage. And it seems to me, you don’t show either towards Chris and I don’t know why. He has never shown any signs of you not being able to trust him. This is a deep rooted issue you have Melanie. It could have been because me and your dad disowned you when you were 18, or it could be because of all the s**t Justin put you through…..but whatever it is, you fix it. You fix it so you can keep your marriage and family together. Janiyah and CJ deserve that family Melanie. You hear me?”
“Yes mom I hear you.”
“Ok now I still love you regardless, you know that.”
“I know mom I love you too.”
“Ok. I am about to put your daughter to sleep. I will give her a kiss from mommy ok?”
“Ok mom. Thank you. Tell her I love her.”
“I will. And you better go see your son tomorrow too, since you didn’t today. Ok?”
“Yes mom.”
“Ok bye baby girl. Stay strong.”
“Ok. Bye mom.” Melanie and Lisa hang up and Melanie just sighs heavily. She sets her phone on the dresser and stands up from the bed. She looks for Chris’ wedding ring and she picks it up from the floor and holds it on her palm and just stares at it. She sits back on the bed and closes her hand and holds the ring tight. The ring she is holding symbolizes the love she has for Chris, and she will do whatever she has to, just to prove to Chris how much she loves him.
Comments please ladies <3
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Okay that add just got me all types of emotional. I can't believe Chris wants a divorce from Melanie I know she f***ed up but they could've seeked help for there probleams. I think Christian put something in her drink or something to make her not remember things so he could set her up. Chris just listen to her please yall have a family don't just let it go. I'm pissed at Melanie yeah but I just know something aint right with that situation. I just don't know what to say Nicole Im so distrought (tear) lol. Loved the add! RUN IT!!!!
NO!!!!!! I don't want them to get a divorce!! They can work it out. When things get rough you don't just give up. Melanie should've talked to Chris, but I think Chris is overreacted a lil bit. I know he is really hurt. Plz dont let them get a divorce. They love each other so much.
I can't even feel sorry for Melanie, because she brought it on herself. Run it
I can't blame him.
He's tried working with her.
*shrugs* Melanie that's you're fault.
I want them to work it out.
RuniT!
Chris wakes back up at 9 am and he gets him and Janiyah ready, so he can go to the hospital to see CJ. Melanie still is not home, and she hasn’t called either, and Chris honestly does not care. He is so mad at her right now and he has no clue how he might react when he sees her. Anyway, he is meeting Lisa and Andrew at the hospital. Once he gets to the hospital, he gets out of the car with Janiyah and walks into the hospital and sees Lisa and Andrew. They smile at him and he walks over to them and hands Janiyah to Lisa.
“Hey Chris. Where is Melanie?,” Andrew asked.
“I honestly have no idea. We got into a fight last night and she left and I have not heard from her since. I called her all last night after she left and I did not hear a thing from her…..but at like three this morning, I got pictures of her and Christian kissing at some bar,” Chris said.
“Wait what? Christian her client?,” Lisa asked.
“Yea that’s him,” Chris said.
“That doesn’t sound like Melanie at all,” Andrew said.
“Oh Chris I am so sorry. Trust me, me and Andrew will be having a talk with her if she shows up…..I know you must be so hurt,” Lisa said.
“I am so angry with her, and I don’t know how I will react when I see her…..but right now I just want to see and hold my son,” Chris said. Chris hugs Janiyah, Lisa and Andre and then walks off. Lisa and Andrew feel so bad for Chris right now. They know how good of a man he is, and they also know he doesn’t deserve what is happening to him right now. Chris goes to NICU to see CJ, while Lisa and Andrew sit with Janiyah. Both Lisa and Andrew tried calling Melanie to see where she is, but neither of them got an answer from her. They are really worried about her. They aren’t sure what is going on with her, but they just want to help. Well after a day in the NICU with CJ, Melanie never showed up and Chris is just that much angrier with Melanie. No excuse will ever be enough for Chris on why Melanie was not in the hospital with her son. At about 6 pm, Chris leaves NICU. He asks Lisa and Andrew to keep Janiyah for the night, because if Melanie is home, he will be arguing with her and he does not want Janiyah around that. So Lisa and Andrew take Janiyah home and Chris heads home. Once he gets home, he notices Melanie’s car is there. He sighs heavily and gets out of the car. He takes a deep breath before walking into the house. Once he walks in the house, Chris walks into the house and closes and locks the door behind him. He takes off his shoes and jacket and looks around the first floor, but doesn’t see Melanie. He walks upstairs and goes into the bedroom and sees Melanie lying down across the bed watching tv. He just looks at her and she looks over at him and smiles a bit. She sits up in the bed and stands up and walks over to him and stands in front of him.
“Hey,” Melanie said.
“Hey,” Chris said dryly.
“Are you mad at me?”
“I am pissed at you Melanie.” Melanie just sighs and nods her head. She tries to grab his hand, but he slaps her hand away. Melanie just looks at him a bit confused.
“Chris baby I’m sorry. I’m sorry for just walking out last night. I shouldn’t have left and I should have talked to you. I know that,” Melanie said. Chris just looks at Melanie a bit confused and he laughs a bit and shakes his head. Melanie puts her hand towards Chris’ face and Chris just pushes her hand away.
“I don’t want you f***kin’ touching me Melanie,” Chris said angrily.
“Chris….I said I was sorry. Why are you so mad?,” Melanie said.
“Why am I so mad?! Oh I will show you why I am so mad!” Chris pulls out his phone and goes to the pictures and then pushes the phone in Melanie’s face. When Melanie sees the pictures, she just gasps in shock and puts a hand over her mouth. She stares at Chris and his eyes carry both hurt and anger right now.
“Melanie how could you do this to me? When things get a little rough is this what you are going to do? Huh? Go out, get drunk and make out and maybe even f**k Christian? Huh?,” Chris yelled.
“Chris….I….I don’t even know what to say. I….I don’t remember that even happening,” Melanie said as tears filled her eyes.
“You don’t remember huh? So you have no clue if you two went somewhere and f**ked then huh?,” Chris said.
“…..I don’t know what happened Chris….but I do know that I did not call Christian or tell him I was at the bar…..I went to the bar at 6:30 and Christian came at like 7:30…..and we started drinking together and then that is all I can remember,” Melanie said as tears ran down her cheeks.
“Melanie….I just can’t believe you. Why the f**k can’t you talk to me when something is bothering you?! Huh?? Why do you have to leave? If you would have just sat down and talked to me, we wouldn’t even be dealing with this s**t!,” yelled.
“Chris….I am so sorry. Baby I really am…..what can I do? What can I do to make this up to you?,” Melanie said.
“What makes you think you can fix this? Huh Melanie? You have no idea even if you cheated on me, and that is a huge problem,” Chris said. Melanie notices a tear run down Chris’ cheek and she moves her hand to wipe his tear, but Chris just backs away from her.
“I don’t know want your hands on me. I have no clue where you had them last night,” Chris said evilly. Melanie just stares at Chris because what he just said really hurt her.
“That hurt Chris,” Melanie said.
“Oh it did? Well now you know how I feel? How do you think I felt when I saw Christian’s tongue down your throat huh?!,” Chris yelled in anger.
“I know it hurt to see that Chris I know. And I am so sorry. You know I would never want to hurt you Chris,” Melanie said.
“Melanie I just don’t understand. I know I am not perfect. I know that, but I have always been so good to you. I have always been kind, and caring, and loving and put you before anyone or anything. Everything I do is for you and our family, but you can’t even talk to me. So when things get rough, you are going to get drunk and f**k around on me? Naw……I can’t just sit around while you do that,” Chris said. Melanie just stares at him and moves closer to him.
“Wh-what are you saying Chris?,” Melanie said terrified.
“……I just don’t think this marriage is going to work Melanie. You obviously don’t care about me enough to talk to me, and that’s not the type of marriage I want,” Chris said. Melanie just stares at Chris and her heart drops to the pit of her stomach. Her lips trembles as she starts to cry. Her heart just broke into a million pieces. Did Chris just say what she thinks he said?
“Chris….what are you saying…..you’re leaving?,” Melanie said while staring him in his eyes.
“That is exactly what I am saying. This marriage is over as far as I am concerned. I can’t just let you take advantage of me like this and cheat on me,” Chris said.
“Chris….no….please….don’t do this to me.”
“What about what you did to me?”
“I’m sorry!,” Melanie yelled through tears.
“You can say you are sorry all you want, but I just can’t do this with you anymore Melanie,” Chris said.
“Chris I love you. Don’t you love me? Can’t you give me another chance? You and my family mean the world to me. I can’t lose you.”
“Melanie we can work it out, where you can see the kids as often as you want and you will be taken care of money wise ok?”
“No! I don’t want that! I want to live my life with you, not by myself!”
“Maybe you should have thought about that before you went out last night and got drunk and did who knows what with Christian! You know…..I remember you telling me, that he said he wishes he was the one that got you pregnant……how do you know he didn’t get you pregnant last night? Huh?”
“Don’t say that Chris.”
“But you don’t even know Melanie!” Melanie just stares at Chris and hot tears are just streaming down her face. She is so hurt right now; her heart literally aches.
“Chris…..please don’t leave me. I cannot imagine my life without you by my side. You are the world to me, please…..just let me figure things out. Let me talk to Christian and see what really happened….I know Christian sent you the pictures because that is his number, but I do not remember doing anything that happened in those pictures. I swear to you. I would never betray or hurt you like that,” Melanie said.
“You don’t have to ask Christian to explain s**t because my mind is made up….we are through Melanie. It’s over,” Chris said boldly. He goes to take off his wedding ring and Melanie just watches him and shakes her head.
“No Chris. Please don’t,” Melanie said softly. Chris takes his wedding ring off and he just throws it on the floor and leaves the room. A few minutes later, Melanie hears the front door open and slam shut. Melanie just drops down to the floor on her knees and she just breaks down. Her worst nightmare, just became her reality.
:O please tell me what you think ladies!! <3
Yay.
