To Remember

Ch 3 Reason

Lynne Pov:

He looks at me, looking a little confused. "Why am I here you ask?" He smirks, finding this situation funny. My face flushes pink. 

"I'm here for you." I suddenly realize what changed over the past few years I haven't seen him. He's more cold, not like the cheery person he used to be. He looks...handsomer. He looks like a predator that could devour me any second. 

"W-what are you talking about?" I ask, pretending not to know the situation. I can feel his hungry stare, making me feel uncomfortable. I didn't really love this change but I don't hate it either. 

He smirks, knowing I'm trying to avoid him. He suddenly lifts me onto his shoulders. I scream. "Let me go!" He ignores me as I scream.

"Shush love. Continue screaming and I'll make love with you right now..." I immediately shut my mouth. Geez. He really knows how to threaten people.

I stay silent all the way until he throws me into his car. "What the fuck Matt- wait- let me out!" I start screaming again as he shuts the door and goes to the front and sits himself in his car. He drives off into a forest.

He drives deep into a forest and suddenly I get scared. He knows hate dark places.... "Please...Matthew...can we go back?" How many hours has it been? I question myself. He doesn't answer me, as he continues driving until he reaches a giant mansion. 

Damn. A giant mansion in a forest? I shake my mind of it's thoughts. Lynne, it's not time to think about the nice mansion! You are in danger!

He smiles, blinding me with his beauty. I slap myself. This isn't the time to think about his beauty! He looks at me confused. I was going to slap myself again to get my thoughts right but then he holds my hands.

His previous soft hands are rough and has callouses now. "Don't hurt yourself." He growls. I could see the seething anger in his eyes, hating how I hurt myself. I blush. 

He lifts my head towards him as he examines my cheek. "Does it hurt?" He looks at me with such a gentle gaze, that makes me think the old Matthew is back. Then I look down. There was never a nice Matthew the first place...it was all a lie.

Tears roll out my eyes as I sob, not wanting to hold it in anymore, I ask him "Why? Why did you lie to me? You were never the person you were! You were always in the mafia and you never told me?" I screamed, letting out my anger.

He looks at me and licks my tears. "Don't cry darling." He holds my in his arms as I sob and punch his chest. He doesn't seem the affected by my punches at all. 

"I'm sorry Bambina." My heart flutters in such a way that I can't handle it. It was the many nicknames he calls me. He learned many languages just to say those lovely words to me. 

But the, he gives me a question at the least expected moment. "Why did you leave me?" He looks at me with such hurt in his eyes.
