Even though everyone sees me as the villain, she doesn't. I don't understand why. I've done some fucked up things that led to even more fucked up consequences. Yeah, it's not like i want to work for my dad. Dear old dad, what a fucking shit head. Why couldn't I have not been born into a family whose dad has a God complex, and a mother who is an obsessive psychopath. Complaining wont change anything. If it did, i'd be free a while ago. I don't know what she sees in me. She sees something in me that I can't see in myself.

i've always had my eye on Mattheo. From the second he came into my view, I knew something was different about him. His body and face all said "fuck off and don't talk to me", but his eyes told a completely different story. How I feel in love with his eyes the second they met mine. I could tell he was hurting. There was something underneath all that hatred, for the world and for himself, that was screaming for help. And that's what I want to do. I want to help him. Everyone needs someone. I don't want him to think I like him just because I think I can fix him. He makes me feel like no other. Like I am the only girl in the world. And i'm not even sure he knows it. Since i've met him, his always been distant. After we started dating, it turned the opposite. there would be times where he'd be vulnerable with me, and I got to know him. Mattheo is the most sarcastic, funny and loving boy i've met. I just wish the rest of the world saw him the way I do.

I've gotten to think for a while. Which isn't a good sign. Why does y/n like me? what's in it for her? does she think of me as some type of experiment? is she just pitiful? if she is, i dont want her- or anyone else's for that matters- pity. Fuck that. I'm done with y/n. I've shown her too much of myself. I hate to admit it, but im scared. I am scared of her leaving, with my heart in her hand. I'm scared that if I ever let anyone in again, that they are going to disappear. I keep trying to tell myself that it won't happen, that she'd never leave me. But how can I say that it won't? If i'm going to get hurt, I at least want to get hurt on my own terms. I hope eventually y/n forgives me for this.

I'm walking down the hallway and see Mattheo right in front of me. I run to catch up with him and I slide my hand through his arm, linking them. "Hey Mattheo" I say with a smile. I cant help but feel happy around him. Instead of his usual "hey" or smirk, he unlinks our arms and starts walking off. What the fuck was that? Maybe he didn't know it was me. How the actual fuck would he not know it's me? Stupid question. I decide to ignore what just happened, purely because if i think about it too much, i'll freak myself out. I keep on walking to my class and make sure to remember to drop by Mattheos dorm after dinner for a little chat.

*time skip after dinner*

It's after dinner and Mattheo has been avoiding me. All. Fricken. Night. I tried to sit next to him at dinner, and this motherfucker stood up and sat somewhere else. Gee Mattheo, if i didnt get the hint before, i've definitely received it now. However, i still need to know what's going on, that's why i'm heading towards his dorm. He better have a fucking good excuse for him ghosting me. I get to his dorm and knock, after a few seconds Mattheo opens the door. When he sees me, he rolls his eyes and tries to shut the door, but at the last minute I put my foot in front of the door to stop it." No. No way are you doing that shit Mattheo", I say and I push open the door and walk in. Mattheo turns around and just looks at me." What is going on Mattheo?" "Nothing i'm fine" he responds. "Fine my ass, you've been avoiding me all day. This is the longest we have talked today, and Id like to know why". He just looks at me before he lets out a long sign. "I don't even know why you like me. I just don't know. I've done unforgivable things and you still like me. No one in their right mind would like someone like me." he says whilst his shoulders slump. " Oh please Mattheo, you haven't done that bad of shit" I say. He looks startled. He lifts up an eyebrow and looks at me like he has seen a ghost. "Okay maybe you've done some bad stuff, but I really do not care. Everyone makes mistakes. And everyone also deserves a second chance." I say whilst taking his hands in mine. "I think you need to forgive yourself for the things that have happened. they were out of your control, my love. So please, try and forgive yourself." He makes eye contact with me and smiles. Though that smile leaves as fast as it came. "how do I know you'll not pack it up and leave me? Taking everything with you? I love you, y/n. I really love you. I dont want to lose you. Ever." he says and tears threaten to fall. I embrace him. "I'd never willingly leave you. Hell, you'll have to pry me off of you before you can get me to leave. I'm here for the long run, Mattheo. I don't plan on leaving anytime soon.". With that, he picks me up and twirls me around, placing a kiss on my lips as he sets me down. I smile up at him then whack him on the arm. He lets out a yelp and gives me a what the hell was that for look. "that was for ignoring me." I say as I cross my arms. "Okay, I kinda deserved that" He says as he lets out a chuckle. " I really do love you, y/n" "I really do love you, Mattheo", and with that, we kiss.

hope you guys enjoyed!! love you all xx
