AMERICAN WEDDING - M.R

land of the free 𐙚⋆°.

" I know how you got home today. " Nicola's brother chimed during their dinner.

Nicola's eye widened. oh shit.

" Didn't know you had the balls to book an uber and go all by yourself. "

Nicola let out a breath of relief. Stupid Rosier. " Yeah, I thought it was kinda a life skill to have. " Good thing her parents weren't home yet. They're too busy attending some political event to bother picking up their kids.

When she reached her room, she pulled out her phone and startes texting Hanna, explaining what sort of.. things Mattheo did in the car on her ride home. Hanna thought it was harrasment, Nicola thought it was romantic.

Nicola was scared to death if her parents ever found out. Number one, she would get thrown out if they knew how Mattheo touched her thigh like that. Second, he's literally a smoker, drug addict. Her parents would be allergic to people like him. Atleast he's hot though, Nicola thought.

AT the Riddle's house, Mattheo couldn't stop thinking how his little Nicola just fully gave in today. She let him take her home. Willingly. Usually she would refuse or be hesitant scared of her parents. Mattheo couldn't stop grinning all night. Even while sleeping.

He was so sure at this point, he's gona marry that girl. He was certain this is not just a simple liking he took. This was pure love.

And he was willing to wait until she's graduated, and ready to be wedded. Heck, he was ready to beg her parents for their blessings.

Every night was just an episode to their married life diaries to him. Mattheo never was religious before, but just this once, he prayed she would never ever leave him. Not when he got this far.

DESPITE her parent's rule of no going out after 6 p.m, Nicola still went out anyway.

And so here she is, sitting on a bench with the Mattheo Riddle at 11 p.m. Gosh she is cooked if they knew. She didn't know why she was so.. willing to break every single one of her parents rule just for him. She barely knew him, they met a month ago, She didn't know how she just let down her guard so easily.

There was something comforting about being in his presence, as if he would fight anything that's going to harm her. Nicola felt safe when he was around.

Mattheo on the other hand, had one arm across Nicola's shoulded and one hand with crossed fingers. As if he was praying.. well, not really. But he was for sure thanking all the God's tonight.

Mattheo climbed her trees just to get to her bedroom window, just to ask her out to the park. Nicola loved this. She loved that he would stop at nothing just to get to her.

Nicola is and will ignore every negative comments anyone has to make about Mattheo. It's the land of the free isn't it? She will do whatever she feels right. And this, this thing. It's definitely right.
