Backstory 1. Melanie Swinson.
Our story's quickly developing co-star, Melanie Swinson, has been in Felix's life for a long time. Not the stereotypical "childhood friends," but Melanie moved into Felix's hometown when he was 10 years old. Melanie is 18 years old (two years younger than Felix). She has long, shiny brown hair and playful green eyes. No one would ever say she isn't a babe. However, for some reason, ever since she met Felix in elementary school, she's never given another guy a chance, despite numerous attempts. She's shy but doesn't like to admit it. She's smart but often acts too flaky for her own good. She just graduated high school this year and plans on attending the same college as Felix. She, too, is unemployed currently and lives with both of her parents. She's always suspected something is "unique" about Felix and tries to stay in his life, even though he constantly avoids and fights with her.

[x] Offer to walk Melanie home.
"It's the least I can do to repay her. Heck, with how crazy today has been it would probably be a safe idea anyway."
"Hey, Melanie, mind if I walk you home tonight? Just to be safe and keep you company, you know?" Felix suggests casually. "Aww you're so sweet. I know you just wanna spend more time with me~" Melanie teases happily. "Hey don't make me change my mind," Felix warns. Felix remembers to put his sandals on this time, and he makes sure to lock the door. Felix and Melanie are outside and begin walking the five blocks to her house.
"Hey Felix you were really sweet today. Usually you always manage to disappear or blow me off when I'm around."
"I don't know what you're talking about."
"Yeah yeah...sureee. I'm not that stupid."
"So what are you doing this Summer anyway?"
"You want to spend more time with m-"
"No goodness...hoping you're working so this doesn't have to happen often."
"Bleh... Nah, I dunno. You know there's like nothing in this lame town right now. Everything is closing or laying people off."
"Yeah I've been feeling it. I guess a Summer off isn't the worst thing ever, though."
"Just what I was thinking!"
"Oh hey look we're there already. Darn."
"Thanks for walking me home, sweetie~"
"Bye Mel."
"I just don't know what to do about her sometimes," Felix thought while starting his walk back home. "It seems everyone else thinks I should be interested in her." Less than a block away from his house, Felix notices his dad's car is already back. "Great...home early. I was so looking forward to this fight," Felix moans.
[] Avoid the problem by going back to Melanie's and see if you can kill time with her.
[] Avoid the problem by going out to the local restaurant and grab something to eat by yourself.
[] Go home and deal with it.
What are the voices inside Felix's head telling him to do?
