I woke up around 2am, and felt arms around me. I had a mini heart attack, but then I just realized that it was just Matt and I relaxed a little. I wiggled out of his arms, and since I still had on his sweats, I went through the house and out the door. No one knew that I was awake, and I wanted to keep it that way.
When I walked out of the door, the cold air hit me like a bus, but it felt good. It made me feel numb. I just walked down the stairs of the porch and laid in the grass and just looked up at the stars, knowing Jovin was watching me from wherever he is.
I heard the door open, but I didn't look because I knew exactly who it was. Matt joined me and just laid right next by my side, not saying anything. It was a good silence, in the cold air.
It was getting kind of cold, because it was like 2:30 in the morning. So I got up and put my hand out to help Matt up. He grabbed me and pulled me down on top of him.
I didn't want to crush him, because I'm not the smallest girl in the world, so I was trying to get off him, but he wouldn't let me go.
"Matt! Let me go! I'm going to crush you." I said still trying to get out of his grip. Once I said it he just looked at me and just grabbed me tighter and said,
"You did not just call yourself fat. Layla, you are not fat. When are you going to realize that?" he was starting to get angry and yelled.
I just stared at him. Matt never yelled at me. Never. I quickly and easily got out of Matt's grip, because he knew what he had just done, and ran back into the house and straight to my room.
Matt quickly followed me and kept whisper yelling my name, but I wouldn't turn around for him. When I got into my room, I closed the door. Surprising to me, Matt didn't open the door. I just laid in my bed and told myself that I wasn't going to cry, so I didn't and I went to sleep.
A/N: Sorry this chapter was so short. Next chapter will be longer I promise.
