REAL LIFE
"i can't believe you're leaving tomorrow." matt sighed. the two teens were at the beach, sitting at a picnic table they found. josh and the rest of the triplets were out getting food. the group planned to do a night picnic.
"i wish i could stay, or at least go to mass with you. but i've got school." she huffed. matt laughed.
"i forgot you're still in high school. but hey, at least you graduate next month. and i live a day's trip away, so you can visit me on weekends if you want. or i can go up to you. or we can do what we did before we met."
"facetimes every day after school and texting 24/7?" cory smiled. matt nodded, he had a smile on his face.
"yeah! we had no problem with it before, and we're still the same people and have the same connection even when we're dating. it'll be like no difference, except now i can say i'm talking to my girlfriend instead of just a friend." matt explained. the two were planning on how to do long distance.
"you're right. and it's an 8 hour drive that's totally worth it. you need to drive up sometime, though. you have to meet lizzie. you're gonna love her."
"are you sure? she called me matthew. that's a huge red flag."
"she didn't know who you were, matt. she's the best. kinda like my sister."
"she won't have a crush on me right? because i only have enough time for one girlfriend. not that i've had more than one before." he added, quickly. cory let out a confused laugh.
"matt, she's gay. you don't have to worry about anything." she reassured. matt looked relieved. the sun was setting now and the two were staring at each other. matt was admiring cory's eyes. the way they glowed in this lighting. cory was observing matt's face. both teens had smiles on their faces.
"you look very pretty, cor." matt blurted. cory blushed.
"thanks, matt. you look pretty, too." she replied. matt smiled, and the two leaned in.
"hey guys, i found them!" a voice shouted. matt and cory instantly pulled away before they could even kiss. matt looked behind at the voice.
"nick you have the worst fucking timing, you know that?" he yelled. nick came running over.
