I Am His

Hello

Routine was the same when it came to my face. Matt did get a bit rougher; I have bruises on my arms. He explained to me how he was scared of me being with other men, he needed not to worry, I love Matt.

As of right now he was in the kitchen making breakfast for me. I had to meet with Lou in an hour and so I needed to start making my way out after breakfast. Matt prepared for me a fruit salad with yogurt on the side. I ate through it all and quietly stood up. I was afraid of doing something that would upset Matt and ruin this whole morning.

"I love you Olivia, good luck."

"Thanks Matt, I love you." I gave him a small smile before closing the door.

I dressed in a long, thin, sleeve shirt with jeans and converse. My hair was up in a messy bun and I was now on the way to meeting Lou. I spotted her in a coffee shop holding on to a cup. I made my way to her, ready for a somewhat new start.

"Hey!" She looked up from her cup and smiled brightly at me. I did the same and took a seat before her. "So the boys are in a recording studio right now so we should head over there." I nodded and followed her to her car.

She had a nice car, I've had no car, and Matt won't let me. There must be a lot of freedom within it. Lou started the car and drove to the studio, but the ride was longer than a few minutes so she started conversation. "So tell me about you, I did hire you without knowing anything except that you needed a job."

What do I say? I never talk to anyone about myself except Matt. I don't think I've had a conversation about myself with him recently, it's been so long. What is there to know about me?

"I have a boyfriend."

"You have a boyfriend, what else."

And so I talked about us, because that is all I'm used to now.

"I love him."

"Okay, how long have you been dating?"

It was weird talking to someone about Matt. The whole town knew about him, and I. But here was Lou not knowing anything about us which in a way made me happy, at least she wouldn't know what really happened between us, I could make her believe that everything was as it used to be. It'll give me something to look forward to; I could be someone else with them.

"Three years and four months."

She turned to me with shock on her face, "As in dating?"

I blushed and nodded.

"He hasn't proposed?"

"No, but we are fine as of now, he's still waiting for the perfect time."

"And is he fine with you leaving for a while? Being together for that long I suppose he might be jealous?"

"He's fine with it. He trusts me and I him."

"You sound perfect, well we're here." She walked out the car and I followed. We walked through some doors and finally came to a room where four boys were sitting in. Of course their eyes followed towards me making me nervous. Could they see past my makeup?

"Guys, this is Olivia Cole and she will be taking my spot for the days I'm gone."

"Hello" I waved.

"Hi" they responded.

"So I hope you get to know each other Olivia because you will be working for them for probably a big majority of the tour. You'll be with me the first few weeks and then I'll be in and out after that."

I nodded at the information she was giving me.

I took a seat in a single couch and awkwardly sat there. I wasn't used to being in a room where everyone wanted to know me. I wasn't used to talking to anyone but Matt.

"I'm Niall, this is Louis, that's Liam, and over there is Harry" Niall said pointing at each one along the line.

"Hello" I said, again.

"So Olivia, what do you like to do?" Niall asked.

"Makeup" everyone nodded and the stayed silent.

"What else?"

"I- I like spending time with Matt."

"Matt?" Niall had a confused expression.

"My boyfriend." They nodded once again.

I didn't speak much, in fact now that I am on my way back home I've been thinking of what I said and I barely even said much. When I did speak it ended back with Matt. But that's how much it shows me that Matt is involved within me.

***

Matt wasn't home when I got here. So here I was in the living room late at night on the couch, with the TV on, and a Snapple in my hand, waiting for Matt, when I suddenly heard the front door hit the wall.

He came right through the hall and entered the living room. When I came in view with him I knew it was better to be quiet. Any excitement of telling him about my first day vanished through thin air. I gulped and sat with my feet to my chest. I tried getting my heart rate to normal, I tried to be calm, but a drunken Matt meant disaster.
