"I never thought one person could tear someone apart, but i never thought someone could fix that person who had be so torn." - Matt August

It had been so long since Chris's passing. I've gotten over the depression phase of grief no thanks to the fur standing beside me, i think as i look up at matt as we walk into the school. I'm finally in year 12 and this time accompanied by a new student. Matt notices me looking at him and gives me a warm smile before putting his arm around my shoulder and pulls me in close. I hear whispers down the hall but it doesn't bother me, I really haven't cared about anyone expect for people i love which include family and friends, i also think its safe to say that I've found new love too.

We walk into the office and Matt gets his timetable as well as getting marked off as being here at the school. He offers me the time table and i look at it, I realise he has all the same subject as. Wether he's doing it because he cares or just more, i'm glad that he's with me. I think give my self a smile before handing it back.
"It been a long time since i've seen you smile", he says as we continue to walk. "Its nice"
He gives me a warming smile back causing me to go slightly red but i doubt he noticed as he looked away, "Thanks" i add as we walking into our new roll call group.

We sit at the back in the corner together in silence as we listen to the chatter around us. I just hope Matt doesn't slip away like the last and i can tell he's not going far, not like he has a choice since he's got all the same classes. *click, click* i hear in front of me as Matt there standing with a confused look on his face. "What ya thinking about?" He ask's as he grabs my arm pulling me out of the chair.
"Nothing, just stuff" i say keeping to myself.

I was kinda glad the day was over, classes were pretty boring but at least Matt kept me entertained as the day went on.

Matt grab my arm again stopping me from walking out of the hall. The wave of furs went past us as they left the building, leaving the halls empty. He scratched the back of his head looking down as his face went slightly red of embarrassment. "I'm not really good with feeling and expressing my self but-" i cut him of with a sharp his to the lip causing him to freeze and got redder. "That works too." He said grabbing my paw as we walk to the exit.

I was so glad he felt the same way as i did otherwise this could have ended very badly, but theres no need to dwell on that instead I'm happy that i have him and i'll keep him close even tho i'm sure he can protect himself.
