Part 19

Maria's pov

"Mattheo?" I said, and i looked at him

I quickly went to him and fell on my knees. He had a sketchbook in his hands, inside  was my drawing , I suddenly looked at him, he looked to the side and threw away the cigarette.

His hand was bleeding, I took his hand and tried to look into his eyes.
"Hey Matt, what's up?" I asked him in a trembled voice, he looked down and bit his lip then looked back at me with his brown infinity eyes that were red around the edges. 

he said quietly.

"I need you..."
I gasped at his words.

 Without thinking, I fell on him and hugged him tightly, I put my head on his chest and kissed him there, I could feel his heartbeat returning to its normal rhythm, he put his head on my head and hugged me tightly, I whispered.

"I'm here" I felt a few tears roll down my cheek.
His bloody hand
I remembered and suddenly I got out of the hug, took his hand with my Pale hands, took out a wand from my bag and whispered a healing spell.

The wound on his hand and fingers slowly healed.

 I looked at Mattheo, he was already looking at me.

"I love you moon and back" he said and I froze .

in his eyes his words took over my mind, I was happy. I felt warmth in my heart tears of joy rolled down my cheek.

 his slightly rough fingers touched my cheek and caressed me I held his hand which was on my face  and  smiled.

  "I love you in every way a human can be loved" this words left my mouth.

I saw a smile on his lips, I saw how his eyes narrowed during that smile, 

and I felt good that I returned his smile.

 After a few minutes of silence and hugs, I broke the silence, I was not relieved by the fact that something was bothering him so much and it was killing my heart.

"Why October 25th, what happened Matt" I said and saw the sadness return to his eyes.

"Please tell me, I just can't look at you like that I know... damn it. I know that something hurts,  in you heart. I want to be here, you understand?. I want to hear you..." I said quickly in one breath and tears were falling from my eyes, he looked at me, his look was so sad that it was killing my heart.
"My mother, she died today," he said, i was speechless.
"My father killed him 8 years ago on this day" he said and looked down, I saw a few tears falling down, my soul was moved, he went through such pain every year alone,

 alone.

"I'm Mattheo,i-I'm so sorry" I said and hugged him, his head on my shoulder, I could feel his tears.
"He killed her in front of me, sh-she was a very good mother Maria, .very... I couldn't do anything to save her, you know... i-" he said, looking angrily at himself.
"No Mattheo, don't say that, you were a child, you know, you couldn't do anything. It wasn't your fault Mattheo" I said
"But... damn it..." he sighed and covered his face with his hand
"I'm sure she's looking at you now, soo please don't look at yourself like that, Matt listen she's dead but she's still with you in your heart and in your memories, in your looks, tell me what she looked like?" I asked
"He had long brown hair, brown eyes. He was very kind," he said and smiled, probably remembering her.
"See, you have her brown eyes" I said and smiled
"You're kind like her, with a big heart, she's proud of you Matt, after so much you've been through, you're still standing here, you're not giving up, and you're amazing" I said, sighing and smiling.
"Is she proud?" he asked and looked at me
"Of course.. you are amazing Matt, your attitude love what you give strength what you have, you give me back my hope... with your smile and beautiful brown eyes, charm and flirt" I said smiling looking at him,
"I love you Maria, so much" he smiled and hugged me, looked into my eyes, then looked at my lips, our foreheads were touching, and then I felt his lips.
