"Matt!" I exclaim as he pushes me too high on the swing, "You're fine Aria you won't fall but if you do I'll catch you." he replies.

"You know I can push myself, I'm not a baby." I tell him, "Fine then." he shrugs, walking away from me.

"WAIT MATT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO STOP!" I call after him, "Just jump!" he shouts.

"WHAT? NO I'M NOT GONNA JUMP ARE YOU CRAZY?" I ask, "Come on Aria, have fun." he whines, "Fine but if I break something, I'm blaming it on you!" I reply.

"Come one. ONE TWO THREE!" 

And I jumped.

"See was that so hard?" Matt asks as I stumble into him, he catches me of course.

"It was scary." I reply, standing up straight, "You gotta learn how to have some fun and go crazy sometimes." he says.

"Yeah and how do I do that?" I ask, "Welp, we'll be sneaking around a lot more then." he answers, "Like during the day?" I ask, "Yep, but only if that's okay with you." he answers.

"I mean yeah, I'd just have to find a way for me to like sneak out y'know?" I reply as I sit atop the slide.

Matt joins me, sighing as he opens his mouth to speak.

"So tell me a little about yourself. You got any siblings?" he asks.

"I have two brothers. They got adopted off though." I answer, looking down at my fidgeting hands, "Oh. And how were they?" he asks.

"I actually don't quite remember. Elijah, he's only a year older than I am but he got adopted when I was 5 and he was 6. Luca got adopted when he was 3 and I was 6." I answer.

"If you don't mind me asking, why were they adopted?" he asks, "Payton wanted a girl. Two of em and after having 2 boys, she didn't want them so she put them up for adoption." I answer.

"Um do you ever wish...?" he starts, "Sometimes, actually a lot. Or at least that my mom would actually listen to what your mom has to offer. It's always like, 'oh they aren't enough' or 'oh they don't deserve your friendship' oh and my favorite, 'if I find out you're dating one of them, you won't live to see next year'." I reply.

"Damn. I can't wait until you move out with your dad." Matt says, rubbing my back.

"I don't even understand why it would be bad if I dated one of you. I mean I'm only just now becoming friends with you and you're not even bad. You're like, so nice and sweet and I was even thinking about this this morning like any girl would be like so lucky to have you as a girlfriend. Like you show me that you care about me and we're just friends, I can't even imagine how'd you treat your girlfriend." I reason.

"Wow don't be catchin feelings for me." Matt laughs, "I could never." I reply.

"Hey I thought I wasn't that bad!" he exclaims, "You aren't, I could just never see myself dating or crushing on you." I reply, "Yeah? You wanna bet?" he challenges.

"Yeah I wanna bet!" I reply, "Fine! I bet that by the end of the Summer, I'm gonna be able to call you my girlfriend." he bargains.

"Alright." I reply, shaking his hand.

He pulls my arm then pushes me, making me fall down the slide.

"MATTHEW!" I exclaim, climbing up but failing.

"Can you help me?" I ask with a pleading look as I put my arm out.

He smacks his lips then rolls his eyes as he takes my arm and pulls me up. He pulls a little too hard, resulting in me falling into his chest.

I look up at him, giggling with a smile.

"Yeah I can tell you're gonna loose this bet pretty soon."
