Look away I try to bite my tongue I think you might be giving me the feeling I've been running from A mistake I know how this one ends Cause once you say it there's no going back to being friends When you caress my face And kiss my waist It's so underrated Pins and needles in my arms till you touch me now I can feel again What's the matter with you You're such a gentleman I told you I don't have the time to fall in love again What's the matter with you why'd you take my hand I love the way you came around and ruined all my plans What's the matter with you Go away You can read my thoughts I can see it in your eyes In the driveway when you drop me off When you caress my face And grab my waist It's so complicated When we saw the shooting star And you kissed me we Weren't being friends What's the matter with you You're such a gentleman I told you I don't have the time to fall in love again What's the matter with you why'd you take my hand I love the way you came around and ruined all my plans What's the matter with you, you What's the matter with you, you What's the matter with you, you What's the matter with you What's the matter with you, you're such a gentleman I told you I don't have the time to fall in love again What's the matter with you why'd you take my hand I love the way you came around and ruined all my plans What's the matter with you, you What's the matter with you, you What's the matter with you, you What's the matter with you
third person flashback
as soon as brooke had laid eyes on matt, she knew she was in trouble. the way his hair fell, the way his blue eyes looked into her brown ones. she knew she should run away, for she knew it could only lead to trouble.
of course, being such good friends with nick made that nearly impossible. after a month of truly knowing matt, it was obvious something was bound to happen. perhaps matt didn't notice it at first, the way brooke would constantly try to look away whenever he was near, but nick and chris weren't oblivious to her actions.
by the second month, the two had grown much closer. brooke hid any feelings she could potentially have for matt, allowing for their friendship to grow. they had shared their secrets, brooke telling him that she didn't have the time to fall in love again after her previous relationship, and matt would share his anxieties. for sixteen year olds, they told each other everything.
matt could read the girl like a book, and she always could see it in his eyes. whenever he felt something was off, or he found her deep in thought, he knew. one night, matt had driven the girl home, and she had been completely silent the whole way. one look at her, and he could tell something was different. once the car had parked, he asked her what was wrong, but all brooke could focus on was his hand caressing her face.
but one night, everything changed.
it was a friday night, and the four were at their friend nate's house for a party. neither brooke or matt were too big on parties, but nick and chris had dragged them along. the two stayed together the whole night.
"come on." matt said, handing brooke his hand, leading her outside. the chilly october air was refreshing after being inside with so many people, and the two found themselves sitting on the grass, stealing glances at each other.
"matt, look!" brooke said excitedly, pointing at a shooting star. the boy smiled, laughing at how excited she got. "what'd you wish for?"
"can't tell you, or it won't come true. come on, matt, basic rules." she joked.
they sat in silence for a few seconds, just looking at one another. before it happened, the girl knew there was no going back to how it was afterwards, and it terrified her. but all she knew, was that when she found her and matt leaning in, she didn't want it to stop.
