"I won't be long!" I shouted. "Fine!" Jackie let me go down town.Thats the first.Shes being nice?
Oh no.There was a lump in my throat.Well at least it felt like.This happens when I get really scared/nervous.😳
I think I um...had a crush on Matt.
"Do you Wannu go get...Zoe?Are you okay??" Matt asked. "Um Yeh I'm fine" 😊 I lied. "Do you wannu go grab some food?" He said. "Yh sure." I said.We went into this place called 'Amazing!' I've never even heard of that.Its a weird restaurant name right?
We sat down at a table while we waited for assistance.Shit.It was that guy I punched in the face at the party.I didn't recognise any of his friends though.
I got a bigger lump in my throat.I ran to the toilet and texted Matt.
Me:I don't like Curry.
Matt:You said you had it the other day?
Me:Okay I like it but can we please leave please now!
Matt:Why what's wrong!?
Me:Nothing please just come to the girls bathroom an I will be out in a sec.
Matt:OkayI got out and walked out fast but I tried to act casual. "Hey Zoe!" He said.
Nonono.How did he know my name anyway!?"Who's that?Is he why you wanted to leave?" "Okay yes but I don't want to talk about it." I said.I walked out and that guy followed me."It's me Jake!" Okay his names Jake.
"You need to get what you deserve!" He said. "Fuck off!" I shouted. "Zoe what's going on!?" Matt asked. "Nothing!" I started to cry. "Leave her alone!" Matt said. "I will look find you again!!!"Jake shouted.
I buried my face in my hands so they wouldn't see me.Matt was rubbing my back seeing if I was okay.But clearly I wasn't.
"I'll take you back to my place." He said. "You sure your okay now?" Chris said. "Yeh I'm perfectly fine!" I moaned.
We walked back to matts.He had a huge house!It was so cool.
Matts Pov:
She ran to the bathroom and locked herself in."let me in!" "No!" She called. I grabbed a coin and twisted it in the lock and it opened.I ran in.I asked the guys if they could leave and they didn't mind.I picked Zoe up and took her up to my room.I sat her on my bed."So you gonna tell me what's wrong?" I asked. She turned away. "I don't like to talk about it." She said. "Tell me please.I honestly don't like seeing you like this."
"Don't...don't tell anybody." She said. "Okay I promise.""So it all started when I was very little and it was my first day of school.I didn't want to speak to anyone.I don't know why.As I got older I didn't have any real friends until I met Nash and Cam.And I seemed to get nervous a lot.Oh yeh and I used to cry a lot for no reason. Then last year I kept having these panick attacks.I didn't know what they were then so I went to the doctor and they told me I might have anxiety.I searched it up and it really upset me.Then a couple of weeks ago I went to a party.This guy called Jake was drunk and tried to do stuff to me that I didn't want to do and he punched me so I had to punch him back.Someone at the party must of spread it around because the other day I got loads of hate messages.And Jake...was the guy trying to speak to me at the restraunt.Thats why I wanted to leave because he saw me..."
"Ohh really?Dont worry I'll be here for you Zoe!" I said. "Thank you.Oh and every time I'm really nervous I get a lump in y throat.But when I'm with you...I think,you take that away."
We laid there in awkward silence."I know we've only just met but I got to be honest.I really like you." I said. "Me too." She replied. She laid her head on my chest and fell asleep.It was boiling how could she wear a jumper.I went to roll her sleeve up but no.
I found red cut marks all up her arms?No.Why would she do that!😔
