*Matthews POV*
I knew exactly where I was going to take Ashley. Around the countryside of Virginia. I feel like she is starting to actually consider liking me. This ride was going to be fun. I kept looking over at her. She looked so cute as she dozed off. I wish she could be mine. I just don't want to break her heart.

*Ashleys POV*
He kept looking over at me, and staring. "What" I said looking at him. "Why do you keep looking at me?" I asked. "Never mind that. I wanna get to know you."' He said laughing. We started talking about our families and what we liked and disliked etc. Then, I felt a vibration. Great. It was my phone. Perfect timing Jason.

I looked down at my phone trying to ignore it. Hopefully matt didn't hear it ringing. But he did. "Who's Jason?" he said looking at the collar ID. I decided to just answer it. "Ugh. It my ex. Let me just take this call." i said frustrated. "Hello?" i answered shaking. "listen to me right now! You better tell me where the hell you are ashley!!" he said in rage. I hung up the phone. I couldn't take him anymore. These threatening phone calls.

Matthew looked at me with concern. "Are you ok?" "Uhh yea." I answered with tears in my eyes. "Ashley, who was that! Why does he think he has the right to talk to you like that." He said angrily. I didn't understand why he cared so much.

"Listen Matt." I said as we were pulling up to a store. "Just ignore that, I'm fine." I said. I left and ran into the store to go find a bathroom. We were in the car for a while, and i had to go. I slowly came out of the store and entered the car, trying to hold it together.

I looked and saw matt scrolling through texts on his phone. Wait. That wasn't his phone. It was mine. I sat down and shut the door behind me. He took his eyes off my phone and looked up at me. "Hey, look. I'm sorry for snooping through your phone but I wanted to find out who this jason kid was." He put down the phone. "Why haven't you told anyone he has been doing this to you?" He said, his eyes staring straight into mine.

I couldn't help it. I just started to brake down and cry. Ugh. Why in front of matt. My mascara was probably dripping everywhere. Oh no. Matt started to cry too. What? Matthew Espinosa, "the bad boy of the school" was crying? He held his arms out and grabbed me into a tight hug. I'm serious, it was one of the best hugs I've ever had. We sat there hugging for a long time.

I guess I really didn't think of who Matthew actually was.
