003 - tucked in

"Chris!" I yell seeing Chris holding up a big goofy sign. I ran over to him and hugged him

"I missed you so much" he laughed voice cracking

"I missed you more" I started tearing up

"hey look whose wearing her necklace" Nick says coming up to us and i quickly jumped to hug him

"I missed you so much Nick"

"what about me?" Madi says carrying the sign Chris dropped "Madi!" I hug her

"we are taking you to our house" Chris says grabbing my bags "what about Finn?" I ask "he's there don't worry" Maddy says grabbing my hand

We were all eating in the kitchen and they were listening to my good news on my role for Emily "ooo miss corpse bride you are gonna be the biggest star" Chris laughs "okay okay where is my cat" I say wiping my hands off from eating "I dropped him off at your house so your home can be ready" Nick says taking a bite of his food "my car is here though right?" I ask "yeah here" Chris says hanging me my keys "okay I will see you guys tomorrow and please remember next week is the premier for the summer I turned pretty so you guys still have to fight over who my plus one is" I laugh grabbing my purse and keys "it should be me I'm her favorite" Chris says snarky "oh please if Ellie was here she would definitely be her plus one" Madi says smacking his arm

I drove to my house and excitedly jumped out my car to see Finn "Finny" I say excitedly opening my door to be met with Matt and a big sign that said welcome home corpse bride "Matt" I say quietly "um Madi told me the news, actually I kept up with you I also wrote you every week" "yeah i got them" I say he cleared his throat and looked next to him to a gift basket flowers and Finn freshly groomed with a cute blue bow tie "aweee Finn"

I pick him up a gently pet him

"You did all this" he smiles and nods "Matt no" I sniff "you can't you" I cut myself off "you didn't have to kiss her after kissing me you didn't have to date her and you don't have to continue to date her" "I broke up with her" he cuts me off hopefully "but still you didn't have to continuously date her" I argue "I know I know" he tries to talk "Matt I just, I just need some time. With me and Finny" I say walking to my room "I don't wanna leave" I stared at him and went to my room

Ughhh I groaned

I giggled a little and continued to text him

I woke up to hearing Ellie jumping awake crying in her room. I quickly got up and ran to her "Ellie Ellie" I say and she gasp grabbing her chest "Matt what the fuck" she says choking up on her tears "im sorry im sorry i didnt wanna leave so ive been here" she looked behind me to see my little set up of blanket and pillows outside her door "im sorry" she pulls me into a hug and continues to sob "why did you do it Matt" she asks crying over and over again not catching her breath

"Breathe breathe" i say holding her face "breathe"

"I missed you the whole time" she chokes up

"But you didn't read the letters?" I asked

"You were with someone" she pushes me off "you were with her" she starts breaking down again

"Clementine, I"

"Stop calling me that you don't mean it" she sobs

"Why are you still here?" She cries

I love you I love you I love I love you

"I" she looks at me with these eyes wanting an answer

"I want to be in your life again" I say helping her get back into bed

"Are you okay?" I ask tucking her in "sleep"

"Stay" she says holding my hand and I softly joined her in her bed pushing her hair out her face

"It was you that tucked me into bed the night I slept on the floor" she laughs

"You wanna know something" she nods

"The second i realized you were asleep I put you in bed and I slept on the floor" she stares at me

"I never hated you Clementine" I say softly and kissed her cheek
