Mattias' p.o.v:
Pearl flinched at Opals loud voice and rubbed her back soothingly. I hung up and the banging got louder.
"Don't worry darling I'll be here while you talk to her" she nodded, and I noticed her eyes filled up with tears. A girl so beautiful should never cry. I understand being protective over a sibling I felt the same for when Emilia go her first boyfriend a couple of years ago. Me and Lukas made sure he wouldn't hurt her and when he did, we made sure he left for a couple of months on vacation. Opal didn't need to worry about me hurting her sister, I cared for pearl a lot. I had never felt this way about a girl before. I would never hurt her. I held my hand out to help her get out of bed and we went towards the crazy woman banging on my door at 5pm.
I unlocked the door and it flung open. Opal looked furious Pearl was behind me, my body shielding Opal from glaring at her.
"Opal why don't you come in" she stormed past me and grabbed Pearl.
"What the hell were you thinking Pearl?" Pearl was very uncomfortable, she looked at me and I nodded my head encouraging her to be brave. It wasn't smart of her to go out alone in the cold, but it was irrational of Opal to not allow her to go out. Pearl was still wearing only my shirt and my pants luckily it almost drowned her as I was almost an entire foot taller than her.
"I'm nineteen years old Opal you can't tell me what to do, I told you I was going out, so you knew where I was. I wasn't asking for permission" her hands were shaking almost as much as her voice was, but I was proud none the less. My darling didn't like arguing but she still knew how to stand her ground.
"I said no Pearl" there was another knock at the door and I went to answer as I hear opal say "You don't know him Pearl, you don't know what he's done" she was whispering, or attempting to. I opened the door and saw Ivory with Lukas, Opal and Pearl were to caught up to notice them enter.
"Is she okay"
"she's fine, she was freezing cold when I got to her but she's okay now. She has eaten food and was pretty calm until..." I looked towards pearl and opal, Pearl was still stood tall and her hands were shaking but she wasn't backing down. She was determined. Ivory nodded and went towards her sisters. I looked toward Lukas and smirked as he smiled bashfully.
"Looks like we've both got a valentine girl" I smiled and elbowed him playfully.
"Your not mum Opal, it was never your job to take on a mother role. You are our sister not our parent. Start acting like it." Ivory was bold and loud it was probably one of the numerous things Lukas liked about her. Opal looked shocked at Ivory's outburst and pearl grabbed Ivory's hand rubbing it comfortingly.
"I-I don't mean to act like mum I just want you guys to be safe"
"I'm safe with Mattias he would never hurt me" I had no idea why Opal thought I was a danger. The girls hugged each-other and pearl looked over to me before coming in for a hug. She smelled like berries as I rested my head on hers and rubbed her back soothingly.
Pearls p.o.v:
We left Matze's apartment a little while ago and I missed him already. I was still wearing his shirt that smelt like him and he made me put on his joggers too. I didn't even finish tangled. When we got back to the apartment, I changed into leggings but kept Matze's pants and shirt on. We decided to have a film night together and order take out I decided to get nuggets and dip Opal and Ivy got a large pizza to share. My phone buzzed and I saw Matze's name light the screen up.
Matze: I'll get your clothes dry cleaned and I'll give them to you next time I see you, love.
Me: thank you! :)
