Feeling Again-Mattheo Riddle;Book 2

Chapter 21: Final Goodbyes

Mattheo's POV: 

"It's 2 AM and I'm cursing your name-" That's The Way I Loved You

Ever since Snow left, I wasn't able to say a word. I went outside to chase after her but she was gone. I was in my bed, just staring at the ceiling when her owl flew in, landing on my desk. 

"Mackie?" I ask in shock, walking over to her. She had a letter in her talons. I picked it up and opened it. 

I had to read over it 2 more times, just to make sure I wasn't hallucinating or seeing things. Mackie was still sitting on my desk, as if she knew how upsetting this was for me. Or she was waiting for a response... 

Snow 

Please, I'm sorry.

Don't leave me. You're one of the only people I have left. 

Love, Mattheo 

My hand couldn't even stay stable enough to write more. I rolled the paper and gave it to Mackie as she flew out my window again. It all clicked. All the anger and hatred and resentment and hurt I was feeling bubbled over. Like a pathetic loser, I fall down next to my bed and bawl into my eyes. And I cry more then I ever have in a long time. More than earlier tonight when I found out about Snow. More than the day she broke up with me. More than anything. She was gone... and this time I didn't know if she was coming back. 

Every fiber of my being wanted to rip apart the letter, but if this was the last letter from her, then I was going to keep it like a gem. But I didn't want to think like that. I wanted to genuinely believe she would come back. And she will. I will spend the rest of my life looking if I have too. 

Snow's POV: 

Airports are always quiet at night. I love it. I love hearing the small sounds of suitcases rolling on the floor and families or couples warming up next to each other while waiting for their flight. I was at my gate, where I was luckily able to book a flight. I was feeling as if I could just die right then and there. But no, there were multiple tasks had in mind. And I wouldn't be able to fix anything until I did these things. 

"Now boarding Flight 209," a robotic voice said.

 I began boarding the plane, sitting in my sit way at the back of the plane. By the time the plane filled up, no one else was sitting on the seats next to me. I suppose the flight wasn't fully booked. I stretched out over the plane seats and relaxed, or at least tried to. 

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have landed in Los Angeles California. The time is 2 PM and we are ahead of schedule. Have a great day ladies and gentlemen." The fuck? I swear, I closed my eyes one minute ago and now we just magically landed? I don't even know what to say to myself anymore. I didn't pack a suitcase so I just take the bag I left next to me and leave the plane along with the stream of hundreds of other passengers. It's very bright here in the evening when I leave the airport and make my way to Sky's apartment building.

I knock the door quickly and wait anxiously at the door. The door quickly opens and a very shocked Sky is there. "Woah... why are you-" I don't even let him finish and I barge in. 

"I'm sorry for just coming in like this, but there is something I should probably tell you." 

He nodded and motioned towards the couch so the two of us could sit and talk. 

"Where's Adalie?" 

"School. She should be walking home right now." 

I nod, glad knowing she's safe. I remember what Tyler said about her supposedly being dangerous. "Has she been acting off at all? Like doing weird or unexplainable things?" I question.
