You're hotter

The melting point and the freezing point of water are the same -- 0 C. They are the same temperature.
If ice (yes ice is the solid state of water) and liquid water are combined together at a temperature of 0 C in a well insulated container that is kept at 0C, then the two forms of water will coexist together indefinitely. The neat thing is that some molecules from the ice will be entering the water phase and molecules from the liquid water will be entering the ice. The amounts of molecules of each state will be equal (this is called equilibrium).
ice<======>liquid water

I don't think water can melt unless you mean a frozen block of water.

When water melts, because that is why it melt right, because it became to hot.

when it melts because the tempature could be 32.1 to melt the water but if it is 31.9 it will freeze and be colder then if it were melting

Water can't melt. Only ice can melt.
The temperature is the same, though - 0C.
