It was beautiful
We were on a big cliff with a perfect view. It was really pretty. Mattheo had apparated us here, making me feel utterly miserable but it was worth it.
We were sitting next to each other. He took a sigaret from his pocket and put it in is mouth "smoking kills, you know." I say to him and he looks at me "so does starving." He says quietly before he lit his sigaret.
"You should stop" I say, avoiding eye contact, he chuckles and blows out some smoke "you should eat."
"We can make a deal." I say and he looks at me again, one eyebrow raised. "If you stop smoking, I'll try to eat." I say and he crooks a smile while nodding.
I take the sigaret from his mouth and put it out. "After this we are going to eat dinner." Mattheo says and I nod. The sun was setting, the sky was a beautiful orange to pink fade. I look at him, his skin was glowing in the sun. His chocolate brown eyes had a spark and his lips a light pink color. His dark curly hair drooped over his forehead and his lashes fluttered when he blinked. He has some light brown freckles spread across the bridge of his nose, some tiny scars too.
"Your really pretty." I whisper making him turn his head to me "your even prettier." He says, scooting a little bit closer to me. Our knees touched, butterflies erupt my stomach. His dark eyes roam my face, trying to read my thoughts. I blocked him out. "Your too curious." I whisper making him smile
He put his hand on top of mine "you still have to apologize." I quietly say while I look at the sunset again "I'll make it up to you, don't worry." He says making me smile. He intertwines our fingers,
"You still have my ring" he notices as a faint smile spreads across his face "yeah why wouldn't I" I say and he scoots closer again "I don't know." He whispers, more to himself. He lets go of my hand and his arm finds a way around my waist, pulling me closer to him.
I have both of my hands in my lap while his arm is wrapped around me, I lay my head on his shoulder. "Thank you for this." I whisper and his grip around my waist tightens a bit. "I just want you to be happy." He whispers and I look up at him. "Why do you care about me?" I ask and he smiles again, his dimples showing.
"You deserve someone who cares about you, who takes care of you and right now, I do that for you." He says as his eyes switch between my eyes. "But who takes care of you?" I ask worriedly. "That doesn't matter." He whispers
"Are you sure?" I whisper and he nods, I look at the sunset again. The colors have now switched to purple and blue.
I can feel Mattheo looking at me, he puts a strand of hair behind my ear and plants a soft kiss on my cheek making me blush. "You care about me, that's enough. I don't need someone to take care of me. I can do that myself." he whispers and I look at him while whispering an okay.
