You're in my Seat ~ M. Sturniolo

Chapter twenty one - centipede

It was peaceful, all alone on the roof. We stayed sitting for a while more, even after the sun was away. We gazed at the beautiful stars above in the clear night sky. I loved doing this alone but even more when I had company. I could tell Matt was becoming more relaxed as well.

We didn't talk in our time on that roof. As much as I usually hated when there was silence between us, this was okay. It was comfortable.

Knock knock knock

Peyton was knocking on the window.

"What do you want" I open the window.

"There's a centipede in my room"

"Leave it or kill it"

"Hell no! I'm not sleeping in a room with a bug in it. And I'm not going close enough to kill it" she squeaked.

"For fuck sake Peyton" I sigh. "Go get me a paper towel" I start to climb back inside. "Come on Matt"

"I'm not killing a bug Viv"

"Yeah I know. I am" I roll my eyes.

"Okay"

I take the paper towel from Peyton and go to her room.

"Where is it?"

"Right there" she points to the far corner of her ceiling.

"That thing is tiny Peyton! Are you serious" I walk over and squish the bug with the towel.

"Well thank you" she says shyly.

"Mhm" I raise my eyebrows.

Matt and I walk out and go back to my room. I put on Gilmore girls and we watch in my bed.

"God I need a Jess in my life" I sigh.

"What's so great about him?"

"Where do I even start Matt"

It was midnight and Matt had fallen asleep. I was pretty hungry and I had to use the bathroom so I got up from bed slowly. Matt grunted softly as I moved his arm off of me but he was still fast asleep.

I used the bathroom and grabbed a handful of chocolate chips to bring back to my room.

I carefully climbed back in bed, putting Matt arm back around me. I finished my chocolate and got comfortable for sleep. I felt Matt turn a bit and he wrapped both his arms around me, burying his face in the back of my head. I decided not to move because he seemed comfortable so I fell asleep.

I woke up to noises in the house. My bedroom door was closed so I assumed it was just Peyton. Until I heard my dad's voice.

"Hey Vivianne. Wake up! I'm home early" he knocked on my door. Luckily it was locked so he couldn't walk in.

"Matt! Wake up! My dad's home" I whispered into his ear.

"Hmm?"

"Go leave out my window!" I pull him up. He jumps up and starts climbing out without hesitation.

"Vivianne?" My dad tries to open the door.

"One sec dad" I say trying to sound groggy while I shut my curtain so Matt can't be seen. I walk over to my door and open it. "Hi dad"

"Hi honey" he hugs me. "How was your time without me?"

"Well, I have something...well someone to show you"

"What?"

I ignore is question and walk down the hall to Peyton's room.

"What's going on Vi- PEYTON!" He yells while running over to my sister who's on her bed on her phone.

"DAD!" She hugs him.

I decided to let them have their little reunion in private and went back to my room. I opened the window to see Matt still on the roof.

"I need my keys Vivi"

"Oh shit yeah" I grab them off my desk.

"Thanks" he starts climbing down the column that's holding the roof up. I was only on the second story so it wasn't a far drop. I watched him speed walk to the van and get in through the window.
