more than bestfriends

- y/n

mattia said its more if a chill day for us. he took us for lunch at this vibey cafe and now we are driving to walk on the beach.
we didnt get to really talk much because we wanted to save it for the beach. this made me feel alot better but im not ready to talk about any of this.

he found a parking spot for us and parked the car. we went home first to grab some extra clothes and change.

" alright we are gonna swim first then watch the sunset." he smiles at me as he opens the door. i get out of the car and grab my bag from the backseat.

he grabs onto my hand as we cross the street. the air was so nice and the water looked so pretty. i just know the temperature is perfect. im a sucker for sunsets.

" pretty right?" he looks down at me. when i look at him its like sophomore year all over again. the first time a saw those eyes , i knew i wouldn't be able to stay away from him. " yeah , its amazing." i smile.

" lets go,"
(play song)

we walk to the sand area and find somewhere to put our stuff. there wasng much people on the beach because of the time. it was getting late and its a sunday. we find the quietest spot right infront if where the sun would be more visible.

i spread the blanket and place our bags ontop of it. i take off my swimsuit cover and place if down. i pair of arms wrap around my waist and picks me up.

" mattia put me down," i scream as he runs towards the water. he throws me over his shoulder and gets in the water. i get down and wrap my legs around his waist.

who knew one human body could actually make me feel the way i do.

my arms swing over his shoulder around his neck. i close my eyes and olace my forehead on his. he moves further into the water and finally stops. his hands move to under my leg to keep me stable. i just felt at peace.

i lift my head up and open my eyes. i just stare into his brown eyes. i can see that he is staring at my lips. i lean in first and it just feels so warming. he kissed back and it felt like electricity.

as we sat on the blanket wrapped in our towels we just admired the sunset. " this is one of my favorite things ever," i let out a deep breath. " except for me being cold."

mattia chuckles softly and puts his shirt over my head. i push my arms through the holes and i feel alot warmer. " so , how do you feel about the whole vic and jackson situation?" mattia asked me.

i knew the question was gonna come around. " im gonna be totally honest , when i first heard about it i was shocked and a little upset because he should've broken up with me knowing he had feelings for someone else. then something clicked in my head and made me realize i was doing the same thing." i explain to him.

i knew i wasn't a victim in this whole thing and trust me i wont act like one. i knew it was wrong to stay with jackson knowing i loved mattia. i feel bad because the whole time i was using him as a distraction. i had feelings for jackson to and i actually liked being with him , but they just weren't as strong as the one i have for mattia.

" how about you? i know your kknda hurt because you loved vic." i look at him. i move my hair from out my eyes as the wind blows. he sighs in defeat and he is sad. i can sense it due to the change of body language.

" i did love her , she was the first person that ive been with that showed so much genuine care for me. i was torn apart but i remembered that this opened a whole lot more opportunities for me." he stares off in the sky.

" as in opportunities , you mean us being together?"

" yes , y/n as if i cant make it any clearer. i want to be with you and if i have to keep fighting for you to see that i truly do i will. there is so much that i look forward to with you. i want us to grow together, cry , argue , whatever the hell it takes. we might not be perfect but not everything is."

" mattia i want to be with you too. i want do everything with you side by side. i cant imagine anymore of my life without you. i just want us to start over the right way , take things slow."

" ok ," he gets up from the blanket and pulls me up with him. he smiles at me as the wind blows in our hair. " hi im mattia , whats your name?" he holds out his right hand.

" really mattia?" i chuckle. " what? you said you wanted to start over." he looks at me. " i didnt mean like that" i laugh and sit back down on the blanket.

he sits down but behind me and i lay between his thighs with my head against his chest. he holds my hand and play with my rings on my fingers.

the cold breeze and the dark sky is making me tired. i just relax and take this all in. i know im gonna have alot of explaining to do when i get back home.

" hey we can go home if your tired," mattia whispers in my ear. "mhm" i mumble under my breath.

we get up and pick up our things. as we were walking out to the parking lot we heard faint screams calling out to us.

" is that?" mattia squints his eyes.

" yup it is," i answer. the two run closer to us and come clearer into view. vic and jackson were also here on the beach. they look so... happy.

" hey guys what are you doing here?" i question. " oh this is where we came to talk , we saw you guys pull up but we didn't want to interrupt you guys." vic explains.

" yeah , we took an uber here. do you think we can ride with you guys back to the house?" jackson asked and i nod my head in response. " you guys lucky you caught us," mattia chuckles.

" very lucky, i thought we were gonna have to run the car down," jackson says. we walk to the car and i noticed they were holding hands. i cant say anything because we are all single.
