Nothing Like Us (Maylor)

Chapter Twenty Six

Carter's POV

"You know he doesn't like you right" I said in a matter of fact way.

Matt looked back at me opening his mouth to speak, he closed it once again, guess he was to big of a pussy to say anything. I knew I was being a dick but I don't like the fact he thinks that Taylor likes him.

He rolled his eyes "can I go see him now?" He questioned breathing out angrily.

"You can wait till he wakes up didn't I just tell you he's laying down" I stated walking back over and sitting in the chair that was by the couch.

"The sooner I see him the sooner I'll be able to leave" Matt said looking at me.

I rolled my eyes and stood up, God I couldn't stand this boy why did my mom have to say Taylor couldn't stay here.

I walked up the stairs and took a left to my bedroom I opened the door and walked in seeing Taylor asleep on the bed hugging onto one of my pillows.

I smiled and walked over sitting down on the edge of the bed.

I moved my hand over to his waist and brushed my fingers across the thin fabric of his tshirt causing him to jump a little from the surprise yet he didn't wake.

I bit my lip, I wish he was gay, I really do love him.

I sighed and bit my lower lip telling myself he would never love me back no matter how bad I wanted him to.

He rolled over but kept his eyes still closed, I reached for the blankets and tugged them back up over his shoulders.

He looked exhausted like he hasn't slept in a month.

I sighed, I was going to wake him up but I couldn't, he needed the sleep.

I got up and walked out of the room turning the light off and shutting the door quietly behind me like a parent who just tucked their child into their bed.

I walked back down the stairs seeing Matt on his expensive phone.

"He needs his sleep so I guess we're staying here aren't we" I said moving back over to the couch and sitting down throwing my feet up over the arm of the couch.

The furniture was nice since my parents both had decent jobs but we didn't have that big of a house or that much money.

"Why do you hate me?" Matt's voice cracked as he asked me the obvious question.

I huffed "why do you thing Espinosa?" I said sarcastically.

"Is it because Taylor lives with me instead of you?" He asked just making me angrier.

I moved my legs off of the arm of the couch and turned my body in the chair so that now I was looking at him "that's part of it" I stated.

Matt looked at me, tears in his eyes but it was for attention I mean why would the little wimp actually be crying there's nothing to cry about.

"I was just trying to help Carter if I didn't volunteer then Taylor would be in a foster home" he said trying to keep the fake tears in his eyes.
