If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?
Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

"Are you gonna share?" Brian hissed at Matt, across me.
"Should have brought your own." Matt mumbled, shoving a handful of popcorn in his mouth.
Somehow I'd wound up between these two at the movies and Tess was on the other side of Matt.
That salty slut had her hand on his knee.
"Want some?" Matt offered.
I shook my head, the only thing I wanted was to get the hell out of here.
Maybe I could pretend I was sick, that might work, I thought to myself as the lights dimmed.
I didn't want to be here, watching some cheesy horror film, in the dark, wedged between Brian and Matt, next to him, him of all people. Why did he have to sit next to me?
"I want some." Brian said.
"Shhhh." Matt hissed.
I sank back into my seat as the movie started, willing it to be over quickly and trying not to pay attention to Matt right next to me.
I failed. I felt Brian slip his arm across the back of my chair but that didn't matter, because all I was aware of was Matt's leg resting against mine, it was all I could feel.
I should go to the bathroom, make an excuse to leave, any excuse and I was about to when Matt leant over.
"Here." He whispered, once again offering me popcorn.
"I'm fine." I whispered back.
"Have some."
"I don't want any."
"Please."
"Will you two shut up." Tess hissed.
Matt looked at me and cocked his eyebrow.
"Fine." I said, grabbing a handful, anything to get him to leave me alone.
I shoved it in my mouth, staring at the screen, trying to concentrate on the movie.
This cheesy horror film wasn't so cheesy, I thought as I sunk further down in my chair, it was actually a little frightening and I couldn't help but jump as someone jumped out of a wardrobe on the screen.
Brian laughed, the ass and Matt leant over again.
"You okay?"
I nodded, glancing at him. He looked concerned but I didn't care because that bitch was rubbing his leg.
She was rubbing his leg and obviously he didn't mind because he wasn't telling her not to.........ARGH FUCK IT HAPPENED AGAIN.
I jumped and this time I grabbed Matt's arm. It was only a natural reaction and I quickly let go as soon as I realised.
What a mess. My life was a mess. I'd had my life perfect, planned, running smoothly and he had come along, kissed me and derailed it. I hated him.
I was the butt of all the jokes on the drive home, they all laughed but I didn't find it funny, I just stared moodily out the window.
"I can't believe you were scared Piper." Tess laughed.
Oh fuck her. "Are you fucking stupid? My name is Peyton."
Everyone went quiet and remained that way until we pulled up at my place.
"Okay thanks." I mumbled, opening my door to get out.
Suddenly both Matt and Brian opened their doors as well.
"Matthew, what are you doing?" Tess asked him.
"Oh I was going to walk Peyton to her door."
"I'm pretty sure Brian is capable of that."
"Oh yeah." He mumbled, shutting his door.
I walked quickly to the door and turned to face Brian.
"Thanks." I said quickly.
He smirked at me and I knew he was going to kiss me. He started learning in when suddenly my door opened.
"Have a good time did we kiddies?" She asked. "Ease up studly." She said looking at Brian.
Oh thank god for Rosie. What would I do without her?
