Then I Met You// m.e

Matt's P.O.V

I sit down at the table as we start to eat. "So?" My mom smirks at me. "Mom, were not dating! She hates me." I fork my food and play around with it.

"Now why would you say that?" My moms face softens. "She told me after this project we both go our separate ways. End of story." I shovel a fork of spaghetti into my mouth and think of her. I don't really like her that way, i guess i just want to be liked by everybody.

Cat's P.O.V

I get home and put my bags down. "Im home!" I call out. "Where were you?" My mom comes running out if the living room. "At a friends house." I say blankly. My dad then pops in. "Whats her name?" I look at my hands. "Mattie." I then pick up my bag again. Brush them both off and run up the stairs and into my bedroom.

-skip night-

I wake up as my alarm clock starts to beep loudly. I turn it off and shield my eyes with my hands as the sun light pours through my window. I sigh and get up and trudge to the bathroom. I get in the shower, do my stuff, get out, dry my hair, throw it up into a bun, do my mascara and eyeliner. I put on my outfit of the day, deodorant and perfume. I brush my teeth and race out of the house. Avoiding my parents.

I get to school and go to the school cafe. I order a bagel and as i am waiting Matthew comes running up to me. "Hey partner." He calls. I wave. "I had an idea, how about we go somewhere like tim's or something. "Sure." I say as they hand me my bagel and i run off.

Matt's P.O.V

I'll get through to her. Like i said i don't like her in that way. But we could be good friends.

-2 weeks later-

"Matt! Stop tickling me." She laughs while she starts to cry as i tickle her. "Not until you say it." I keep tickling her. "Never!" She laughs as she hurdles over hiding her sides from me. "I'll never stop!" I keep tickling her. "Fine! Matt, you are my best friend in the whole world." She cries out. I stop tickling her. "Good, and you're mine." I wrap my arm around her.

"Okay guys!" My mom yells from the kitchen. "Are you ready to leave for the camping trip?" She asks as she throws all the luggage into the car. We're meeting the other boys at the camp site but were all going camping and its gonna be so fun! "Yea! Lets go!" I call out as me and Cat run to the car and both hop in the back seats.
