Pressure // Matty Healy

Ten

"This place is beautiful," I say as we pull up to a beach. "How'd you find it?"

"My family used to come up every year when I was a teenager. You really like it?" he asks.

"Yes it's beautiful. So silent out here."

"Well come on!"

"Huh? We have a house out here," he says.

I follow him to this gorgeous beach house. Is he rich? This place looks really expensive.

Matty has called me about 20 times since I left. I should answer but I really don't want to talk to him right now. He'll just tell me some shit excuse and how he's sorry.

"What are you thinking about?" Sage asks.

"Matty.. Everything that happened."

"Stop thinking about him, don't get him the satisfaction."

"Sage you don't understand how much I like him. I barely know him and he's already got me hooked. I've never felt this way about someone. I'm sorry I'll shut up now," I say.

"You can keep talking babe, it's fine. I'm here you know that right? I know you barely know me as well, but don't be afraid to tell me what's on your mind. Alright?" he says, seriously.

"Alright. You're great you know that?"

"Yeah, obviously," he says hugging me.

Keaton texted me about an hour ago.

Keaton:
What's up?

Cami:
Nothing much, I think I'm about to go to sleep.

Keaton:
What happened to your plans with Matty?

Cami:
Long story, I'm tired.

Keaton:
Night babygirl, get some sleep.

Cami:
Night keat & you too.

I finish texting him goodnight and he replies with some kissy faces. I really don't want him to get the wrong idea about us. I just want to be friends.

"So you want me to take you home?" Sage ask.

"I'm really tired so I guess so," I say.

"We can sleep here," he says.

"No, no. I need to go home for tonight," I say hoping he will understand.

"Okay, well let's get going."

I finally make it home, an hour later. I'm so tired. I wanna talk to Matty though. I press the FaceTime button next to his name. It connects.

"I'm so sorry sweetheart. I feel like all I do is apologize to you. But I'm sorry. I want you, I need you," he says.

"Can you come over?" I ask.

"Really? You want me too?" he asks confused.

"YES. I love sleeping next to you, please come over," I say, half asleep.

"Be there in a sec," he says hanging up the call.

Matty's POV

I'm really surprised she wants to see me. I knocked on her door and Jen answered.

"She's asleep," Jen says.

"I know, she told me she wanted me to come over though," I say and Jen shows me to Cami's room.

"I don't wanna be your friend, I wanna kiss your neck," I say pulling her close to me. I know she didn't hear me, she's asleep but I wanted her to know.

-

I wake up with Cami sleeping on top of me. She's so beautiful when she sleeps. I kiss her softly, she smiles.

"What're you doing?" she asks.

"Looking at the most beautiful girl in the world."

"Matty stop, I look a mess."

"Come here," I say as she starts to get up.

I pull her into me. I kiss her. She seems distant.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

"Uh.. Nothing," she says unsure.

"You can tell me babe. I really am sorry. I called the girl from the bar, Nina, I told her I couldn't hang out with her anymore. She was pretty upset, I don't care though. You're the only person I care about," I say holding Cami's face.

"I'm sorry, Matty. I'm so sorry," she says and starts to cry.

"You've done nothing wrong babe," I say confused.

"Yes I have, I made out with Sage last night. I was upset. And he was so gentle and sweet. I couldn't think straight. I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I feel like shit," she says crying.

"Cam it's okay, really it's fine. I was an asshole yesterday. Just please don't do it again?" I ask.

"Of course. I'm never going to."

"You're mine, only mine. I don't share," I say demandingly.

"So it's official? I'm yours?" she asks.

"Yes, I've been wanting you to be mine. So you agree You're mine?"

"Yes."

"Say it say your mine, only mine," I say.

"I'm yours, only yours. I'm not sharing you either okay?"

"Okay baby. I'm yours and your mine," I say kissing her neck.
