When I woke up that morning, I had forgotten I had another human being in my bed, that human being Matt. I consciously snuggled in closer when I heard Matt murmur my name, I had no idea if it was in his sleep or he was waking up. I went to pull away and give him space, but he pulled me closer “Don’t run away Jamie, your not gonna get in trouble for hugging me”. Yep Matts defiantly awake.
By the time we had finished our little cuddling session in my bed, we went down to have breakfast like normal people yay. When we were ready, I had to take Matt to Carly’s so he could grab all his stuff and go to the airport. By the time we got in the car, there was a lingering silence that I really couldn’t ignore. “Matt what’s wrong and don’t tell me nothing?” “I’m just tired Jamie” “So were back to lying Matt, we went to bed at 9 last night and woke up at 10, don’t tell me your tired?”
“I just miss Carly that’s all, I didn’t want to say anything because I was worried you’d react funny which you are” “Well obviously Matt, your spending time with me and then you tell me how much you miss Carly” “How did you want me to react?” “I expected you to ignore it and be happy, if you really like me that much you’ll be happy for me” Matt said as we pulled up to Carly’s driveway. “See you next week Matt have fun, because I know how much you missed Carly right” As soon as Matt hopped out of the car I drove away and went right to star bucks.
I really needed to think about this. Matt seemed so happy when he was with me this morning, but as soon as we pulled up at Carly’s he smiled bigger than he had all day. I wished I could make him that happy, but I feel like he’s bottling in his emotions when he’s with me. His eyes always say a different story to his face; I needed to give him time though. I had just told him how much I liked him and then slept in the same bed.
OMG, maybe I kicked him with my boot, that would hurt, that would explain why he was so funny. Yeah, I doubt that would have happened, don’t worry Jamie you tried. I’m pulled out of my zone when my phone starts going off, I check to see who it is and lucky me its Matt. “Yes Matt, how can I help you?” “Um, I’m staying in Texas for another week, seeing as schools ended and stuff, and when I go back to Arkansas mom wants you to come if you like?” “No Carly?” “Mum doesn’t like Carly, Jamie lets not play dumb hear” “Okay, well I’ll think about it, I gotta go bye”” Wait Jam-“Oops cut him of, I’ll find out what he meant to say later.
About a minute later I get a text from Matt, rolling my eyes I unlock my phone and see that he has sent
“Want to tell me why you shivered last night ;)” Ah crap, what was I going to do now?
“You were touching my stomach Matt, it’s a sensitive area” I was quite happy with my answer, lots of people have sensitive stomachs right? I seriously doubt that they do but, hopefully he won’t realise that. “So, that’s why you cuddled into me this morning right “Omg, I was going to kill him. “Look Matt, I think you should stop because this is not important ““Ah boo, you don’t realise how important it really is” As I finished my drink, I put my phone in my pocket, and slowly walked out in this weird up/down pattern, I really wanted to throw this boot at the window now.
When I got in my car, I texted Matt saying, “Thanks for the broken ankle Matty”, I knew that might make him fell bad, but right now I wanted to tease him. I drove down the road, with a little bit of difficulty while trying to press down on the accelerator not brake, which was proving difficult. When I finally got home, with a little bit of patience and difficulty, I went straight to my room and just lay with my head on my pillow. Subconsciously I laid my head on Matt’s pillow and I could smell Matt on it.
For a guy, he smells pretty good, like caramel and vanilla. It is a very, very nice smell, which I could definitely get used to, if Matt was with me right now. I figured as there wasn’t much to do I’d get started on my summer homework, because honestly who wants to do homework in summer… not me that’s for sure.
By the time I had finished my English essay, psychology project and Latin worksheets, I could finally say I had finished all homework and was a free person. My family and I were going to Florida in two weeks and hopefully my boot would be of by that time. If it wasn’t, I’d murder someone not literally of course, but in my head. I didn’t want to spend summer in a big, heavy boot. I decided since nothing interesting was going to happen today, that I would watch a movie. Such a great way to cure boredom.
I decided on Pitch Perfect, and laughed my entire life away. When my brother got home, he found me with tears coming down my eyes, cackling on the living room floor because I had fallen of the coach about 10 minutes ago and couldn’t be bothered getting up. He decided to come and ask me how Matt and I were doing. I told him everything from his reaction, Matt in hospital with me, waking up to hearing him murmuring my name and finishing with how his mom and him wanted me to come to Arkansas with him, which I thought was very exciting.
He asked me what I was going to do, and of course that bought me back to square one. I really didn’t know, how was I supposed to deal with being with Matt for a whole two weeks without going crazy. The boy I liked would be with me nearly every single day for 14 days and I was supposed to act normal. Yeah, huge chance of that happening.
Little did I know, some amazing news was about to come my way
There you go people xx
