A/N: Hold on to your pants for this one....

Gareth POV:

After another hour of sweet talking and kisses, I had  finally got Mattie outside for a walk. She had huffed as you put on jeans and your hellfire shirt. You just shook your head and pulled a Jean jacket on, your usual metal accessories would have to wait.

I'll need to get Mattie a present, maybe one of my rings.. they won't fit her slender fingers, but I want something for her body that reminds her of me.

The day had started so well, your skin ached from all the love bites, Mattie was everything you wanted from a woman, everything.

In preparation of your adventure with her, you filled a thermos with coffee and added hot chocolate powder and milk to simulate a latte or at least caffeinated hot chocolate. It was the Emerson drink of choice, your mother's claim to mom fame.

A sigh left Mattie's mouth as we walked down a path you had found along the backside of the house. It didn't take much for you to tell Mattie wasn't happy about the fresh air, it made you smile that she was expressing her discomfort. Mattie never really told anyone when she didn't like something.

You loved this new Gareth and Mattie. You wanted her to smile all the time. Since the first time you saw her smile in that high school restroom, it's been the one facial expression you always wanted to see. She was lost in thought as you held her hand and led her around the property. You would give it to the Carver's this was an amazing place.

Lots of fresh air, the trees would kids the sky, I guess if you were going to ostracize a relative it wasn't the worst prison

Lots of fresh air, the trees would kids the sky, I guess if you were going to ostracize a relative it wasn't the worst prison. I paused a second... maybe the reason Mattie hates walking and the outdoors so much is because of this place?

"Gareth?" Mattie's small voice comes from behind you and you turn to see her red faced and mad. Instant regret filled your stomach as your eyes magnify each line on her perfect face. It didn't matter the expression she was beautiful, I don't even think she knew how lovely she was, how fucking gorgeous, and now that you knew it, you would not let her go.

"Yea beautiful?" I chuckle, "Am I walking too fast again?"

"Can we just sit somewhere? I am not the ... hiking type." She started to kick at the dirt and you wanted to scoop her up, press her against a tree and just claim her.

Instead you just nodded and motioned to a rock that was overlooking the path you were just on. She skipped over and sat down with a thud, she was so childlike sometimes. It was rare she showed this side and you relished in knowing she would show you these sides of her. You wanted all of her to be yours only, that she hid herself away from others and let you see this shining beauty that was Mattie.

"You want some Emerson Chocolate." I smirk at her and offer the thermos.

"Is that code for something?" Mattie looks at you, that bit of snark in her words, it was part of what made your bedroom talk so hot, but right now she was being a brat. You still loved it though.
