500 days of summer||Josh Ramsay x Matt Webb

The Days

Friday June 13th, 2003: Day 1

Josh's POV

I looked at Matt laying beside me with his after sex hair, his naked torso against my body and his hand linked with mine as he slept. I kissed his cheek a few times to wake him up. Matt grunted slightly but woke up and looked at me with his squinting eyes.

"Good morning Matty." I said, rubbing my hair on his shoulder. He beamed at me and kissed me back for the ten thousand times I did.

"Morning Joshy. What time is it?" Matt asked, sleepily. I turned to grab my phone off of his side table. I turned it on and checked the time.

"Almost 10 baby." I kissed his shoulder gently and started getting up. I opened my suitcase to find a clean pair of skinny jeans and started putting them on. Matt sat up and watched me get dressed. "What are you staring at?" I said, acting all shy and trying to cover up.

"Just watching your amazing body be covered up. You shouldn't have to wear a shirt all day." Matt stated, laughing slightly.

"I could but, I would be too sexy for the world." I slid on my shirt and walked over to Matt to kiss his forehead. "I'll give you ten minutes to get ready." I walked to the door and closed it behind me to see Amanda coming out of her room. She barely looked at me and walked downstairs as I walked into the bathroom to fix my awful hair. I looked in the drawers to find a bunch of men's stuff. This must be Matt's drawer. I used the hairbrush to comb out my hair while Matt came and hugged me from behind.

"I'm too tired to physically move..." Matt complained sarcastically. I rolled my eyes and started brushing his hair like he was a little kid.

"Need me to carry you downstairs? Or can you walk?" I asked quietly. Matt put his arms up around my neck. I picked him up around the legs and carefully carried him downstairs, holding onto the railing with one hand and Matt with the other. Matt weighed almost nothing to me so he was a easy carry. Once we got downstairs, Matt's mom was helping Amanda finish up some homework. I sat Matt on the couch and walked to the kitchen to get him some breakfast. I made him a bowl of cheerios with a plastic colorful spoon in the bowl. He was feeling childish this morning so I was gonna treat him like one. I carried his bowl to the coffee table in front of him and sat down next to him. "I need you to eat this morning, okay?" I told him, kissing him. Matt tried waking himself up and started eating slowly. I looked at Matt's mom that was whispering to Amanda for a minute and she started to go upstairs as her mom walked over and sat in the chair next to us.

"Joshua, Matthew, we need to set some rules while you both are going to be staying here. Rule number 1: If you are in a room with each other, the door stays open. Rule number 2: Josh, you will sleep downstairs because from what everyone heard in the house, you guys didn't get enough sleep. Rule number 3: in bed by midnight. You both got it?" Matt's mom stated. We both nodded as I cuddled on Matt's shoulder. Matt finished up his cereal and set his bowl on the table. Matt's mom smiled at us and walked upstairs as Matt rubbed his fingers through my hair gently.

"What do you want to do today Josh? We can do anything you want to do." Matt asked me. Before I said anything, Matt's mom came downstairs with an envelope in her hand. 

"I almost forgot. Happy birthday Josh." She said with a smile, handing me the envelope.

"Thank you Mrs. Webb." I thanked her, taking the envelope and putting it on my lap as I continued to cuddle Matt.

"Want to open it?" Matt asked, rubbing his fingers through my hair.

"Not really. I just want to wake up a little before I do anything." I told him, trying to get my eyes to stay open. I barely slept last night, not just from Matt, but because of my insomnia. I had it forever but it got worse since I went to rehab. Long hours at night, frustrated and just staring at the ceiling for endless time. I hope that I could get my insomnia to stay down so I can actually sleep, but for now, I guess I have to deal with for the time being. Matt took the envelope from my hand and started opening it. He hands me the card. "Read it to me Matty." I asked , sleepily. Matt rolls his eyes and opens it to see money fall out. Matt gives it to me. $100? Why?

"Happy birthday Joshua. We know that you would start your journey somewhere, to help you with that, we have given you something to get started. Love, the Webb family." Matt read to me. I thought of something to do today.

"Matt, I know what we are going to do today!" I bolted up from the couch, grabbing Matt by the wrist and grabbing his car keys. "Get your shoes on and meet me in the car." I said, grabbing my shoes and running out the door. Our days of our adventure began today.
