 I wake up. I looked at an electric clock on a small night stand next to me. 11:38. Almost noon. I got up, braided my hair and walked down the stairs and to the kitchen. I see Matt sitting down at the tall table on a tall chair. He had a mug of what I think is coffee, in one hand and his iPhone in the other. I loudly clear my throat and say Good Morning. "Oh hey, I see we both woke up pretty late." he says with a small chuckle. "Yeah, is there any food?" I ask, knowing there is. "Right in that cabinet there are bowls, in that drawer are spoons, and in the pantry there is cereal. Pick whichever one you like." He says pointing where everything was. I serve myself some cereal and Matt pours the milk in my bowl. I decided to go with Coco Puffs. They always were my favorite. I sat across from him. He was focused on his phone for the most part. "So what do you like?" He asks trying to start a conversation. I decide to go along with it since it was to quiet for me. "Umm, I like to read. Play guitar, sing. That’s it really." "What kind of books do you like?" He quickly asks after my response. "Mmm 'To Kill A Mocking Bird' 'The Fault in Our Stars' 'The Outsiders' 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower'. Classics, you know." "All of those are great books." he looks into my eyes and nods. I become nervous and look down.

*Door bell rings*

Matt goes and opens the door and in comes rushing a girl. She was skinny, tall and beautiful. She wore a very tight v neck shirt and a denim mini skirt. She has nice teeth and big hazel eyes. She sets her purse down on the couch and gives a big sloppy wet kiss on Matt's lips. "Ew." I whisper to myself. She turns and see's me. "Who's that?" She giggles nervously at Matt. "Delaney, this is-" "I'm Adrianne. His girlfriend." She interrupts Matt. I smile and politely say "Nice to meet you. I'll be upstairs." I walk upstairs into my room, as of now. I see the books and head straight towards them. A book called 'Go ask Alice' catches my eye and I begin to read. I became distracted at the yelling from Adrianne. A few moments later I hear the door slam. I slowly walk down the stairs, holding the book firmly in my left hand, trying not to lose my page. "Is she gone? She kinda scares me..." I ask. "For good, I broke up with her." "Oh sorry." "She was always bad news anyway." He shrugs his shoulders and sits on the couch. "Oh." I didn't know what to say.  "You deserve so much better. You deserve someone who doesn't leave her clothes too long in the dryer because her clothes are too tight and too small." We both laugh at my stupid comment. "How about we go play guitar or a while?" he asks. "I'd like that." I nod and follow him upstairs. He grabs his brown nylon guitar and starts to strum.

“If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea,

I’ll sail the world to find you.

If you ever find yourself in the dark and you can’t see,

I’ll be the light to guide you.”

He sang beautifully, he sounded like he has been singing all his life. He was talented.

“You can count on me like 1-2-3 and I’ll be there,

And I know when I need it I can count on you like 4-3-2, and you’ll be there

‘Cause that’s what friends are suppose to do aw yeah

Ooh ooh ooh

You can count on me like I can count on you.”

“Wow, that is a beautiful song.” I say. “Yeah it’s by Bruno Mars.” “Who’s that?” “Only one of the best artists in the world!” He yells excitedly. “Oh.” I shrug my shoulders. “Do you know Skrillex, Katy Perry, Justin Bieber, or Ariana Grande?” “No...” I say kind of shy. “WHAT!? We have to show you some new music.” He grabs my hand and takes me to the living room downstairs. He turns on his tv. It had internet, so he went on YouTube. He typed in so many artists, from Jay Z to Justin Timberlake, from Skrillex to Swedish House Mafia. It was cute how he was so focused on the music he was searching. I only see his lips moving, but no words come out. I’m stuck in a trance by those beautiful big brown eyes. His smile is breathtaking. That nose of his, that nose is so adorable when he laughs it crinkles. Those lips, those rosy pink plump lips oh how I could— “Delaney? Are you okay?” I realize that I’m leaning in with my eyes closed, and lips puckered. “Uh yeah um I’m good.” I sit up straight. *fake yawn* “Um I’m kinda tired so I’m gonna go to sleep, Goodnight.” I say walking up the stairs. He chuckles and says “It’s 2:00 in the afternoon.” “Oh well I’ll take a nap and read, but don’t bother me.” I quickly jog up the stairs and into my room. I close the door behind me and slide down against it until I reached the floor. “Why me?” I ask myself.

--Matt’s POV—

She’s silly. I thought the whole kissy face thing was cute too. I was going to kiss her, but the way she ran off seemed like she didn’t want to kiss me. Oh well. But there’s something about her. I don’t know what it is, but it makes me happy. She’s different. She has a pretty smile, and these beautiful blue eyes that just...blow me away.
