Nerd Alert! (Matthew Espinosa FanFiction)

Chapter 34

~Mae's POV~

It's been an hour since Matt and I have been playing thumb wars in my room. And it always turns into a tie game so we continued until one of us has more than two points than the other. So far I'm winning by one point. If I won this round, I won this game.

I need more strength to beat him though.

"Boom," I shouted as I defeat Matt on the game.

"I'm not surprise," he smirked and I looked at him curiously. "You're a karate girl and I just got beaten up today."

"True," I laughed.

We both sat down on my bed then we suddenly heard the door slam close. We both jumped of surprised and look at each other.

"Stay here," Matt suggested, standing up from the bed.

"No, I'm coming with you," I said, standing up after him.

I grabbed his hand and he held it tight. He openened the door gently, not making any sound. As soon as he opened the door, the screaming from downstairs blew up on our faces. We looked at each other again and worry entered my face. We walked downstairs slyly and we saw mom and dad fighting. I know they are not arguing, their fighting. Matt rubbed his thumb against my skin. I looked back to where they are and dad's hand is going up. And I know his going to slap her.

I took my hand away from Matt and ran downstairs and to them. I heard Matt's footsteps following me but I continued my pace towards them. I ran in between them and take the impact.

"Mae," they all shouted as I land on the floor.

"See what you did?" my dad shouted at mom, punching mom on the gut. "Because of your craziness bullsh*t your daughter sacrificed for you."

I stood up from the ground and pushed him, making him walk backwards.

"I've had enough of you," I yelled at him and he got a little bit surprise.

"Don't raise your tone at me, young lady," he said in a calm voice.

"No," I disagreed, raising my voice to him again. "First, you didn't want me to hang out with Matt. Then you got fired on your work because of your bullsh*t ego. Then, you haunted me on my dream which is actually going to happen today. And now you punched mom. What else? Who else are you going to hurt?"

"You know what? You're right," he frowned, walking towards Matt. "Instead of hurting your mother, I could hurt your lover boy over here."

He grabbed Matt's neck and he lifted him up. Matt tried to breath but it was too hard.

"No," I shouted again, running towards them.

I shoved my dad down making him fall down. Matt fell down on the floor, holding his neck, trying to catch his breath. I ran towards Matt and helped him stand up.

"Matt, you have to leave, bring mom with you too," I suggested to Matt, carrying my unconscious mom closer to him and to the door.

"No, Mae, I'm not leaving you here," he disagreed, holding my hand even tighter.

"Matt, you have to," I begged him. "I'm begging you. It's for your own and my mom's safety."

"What about your safety?" he asked, really worried.

"I'll take care of my own," I replied, and I felt a hand grip on my neck dragging me backwards. "Leave now Matt. Please."

He shook his head, but he walked backwards with my mom and to the door. I love you, he mouthed to me. I love you, I mouthed back. He rab away from the house and somewhere else. My dad pinned me up against the wall. He lifted me up as high as he could with his hand around my neck. I began kicking him but I never got that much energy left in me because I can't breathe. He tightened his grip on my neck, making me hold on to his arms and closing my eyes. I opened my eyes and looked straight at his brown eyes. I got confused. My dad have hazel green eyes and when his mad, his eye color never change. I kept looking at them brown eyes, his dull and worry brown eyes.

"I s-still love y-you," I said to him, trying to breath.

His eyes lit up and he let go off of me. I fell down to the floor and catch my breath.

"Y-you do?" he asked, stuttering, while he kneeled down in front of me.

I nodded my head. He stayed there, not moving an inch. He finally stood up after a few seconds. He stretched his hand out, I curiously looked at him, and he gestured for me to take his hand. I grabbed his hand and he helped me up. He looked straight in my eyes and he put his hand on his neck skin. He pulled something out. He pulled out a piece of skin from his neck and to his head. Behind that was another piece of skin. He's not my dad. Someone, behind that mask isn't my dad.

"Cameron?" I asked, surprised, after he finished taking it all off.

"Put your hands behind your back," a manly voice shouted, after they kicked the front door. "You're under arrest from child abuse."

He looked at me and walked backwards to the cops. He put his hands behind him and the police put a handcuff around his wrist. Matt and my mom entered the house and ran towards me. I hugged mom first.

"I'm so glad you're ok," she whispered in my ear.

"I'm glad you are too," I whispered back.

I pulled away from her and looked up to where Matt was standing up. I smiled and he smiled back. He leaned in for a hug. He lifted me up and I wrapped my legs around his torso. I tightened my grip on him and so did he. I pulled my head away from his neck and kissed his cheek.

"Thank you," I whispered to him.

"I told you I'm never leaving you," he smirked. "And I'm not ready to lose you."

He started leaning in and he entwined our lips together. I kissed him back and a spark lighted between our lips. Someone beside us fake cough. Matt and I pulled away quickly and looked on our side.

"Daddy?" I said, like a little girl.

I jumped out of Matt's grasp and to my dad's clasp. He kissed my cheek and I buried my head on the crook of his neck.

"Are you my real daddy?" I asked him, making sure that it's actually him.

"What? My Sweetums Chocolate Kisses-Baby Nuts doesn't believe me?" he smirked.

"Yeah," I replied to him slowly. "You are my dad."
