Matt's Pov🪞

"Mark! Please! Just for a minute!" 

I tugged on the blonde's purple suit, trying to get his attention away from one of his co-workers.

"Not now, Matt. As soon as I'm done here."

I let go of him, and he resumed his discussion. I looked around, feeling unwanted.

Going to one of Mark's business parties at his work isn't fun. Everyone was dressed up, had their hair done in fancy ways. 

And then you had me over here, who refused to wear anything nice.

I sat in a corner away from everyone else, clutching my bear. It bugged me. It really did. Just before we left to go here, Mark was cracking jokes and being his stupid self. But then when he stepped foot in here, it's like he changed. He's back to the Mark that teased me non stop.

I buried my face into my hoodie until I felt a soft tap on my shoulder. I looked up, and squinted, realizing it was only Mark.  "Hey bud, they just put out more cookies if ya want any!" 

I shook my head and hung onto his arm. "Please stay..I.." 

Somebody came up behind Mark, patting his back. "Marko! There's a wine bottle with your name on it! Come on!"

Mark looked from him to me. My eyes grew wide. He wasn't going to choose getting drunk over me, right?..

Mark sat up and placed on a smile. "Heck yeah!"

My heart dropped. He had to be kidding..

"I'll be back later, Mattie!" 

And he was gone.

My body felt numb. 

I got up, leaving my teddy behind, my hands balled into fists.

I found Mark sitting near the front desk, a wine bottle in hand. Before it could reach his mouth, my hand shot out.

The wine bottle hits the wall, shattering into pieces. The room went quiet.

Mark was sitting there in shock. His eyes trained toward me. "Matthew.."

I grabbed him by the ear and dragged him out of the store.

When we got outside, Mark pulled away from me and stepped back. "What the hell?! What is wrong with you?!"

I felt my heart tug. "You choose to drink away and get drunk over me. And when you get drunk, who's the one carrying your ass!?-"

Mark was quiet. He knew I was right.

"Matt..I'm sorry.."

I rolled my eyes and turned away. I didn't want to see his face right now.

I felt something wet drip onto my shoe. I looked up. It was starting to rain. Great.

Something warm slipped around my shoulders. I turned. Mark had laid his jacket on my shoulder.

"I'm sorry...Really...I'll make it up to you...But can we please get out of the rain?.."

I sighed and nodded. He was a jerk..But I couldn't stay mad at him forever..

I didn't feel like walking, so I climbed on Mark's shoulders. Mark flinched. "Aren't you too old for this?" I shook my head and buried my face into his golden mass of hair.

"Mark! Leaving so soon?"

We turned. One of Mark's workers was standing in the doorway.

I swear to god if this blonde monkey-

"Yeah. Something came up. Cya later!"

Like I said. Best boyfriend ever.
