Adopted (a Fall Out Boy/Pete Wentz fan fic)

Chapter 108

Pete's pov 

Becka was updating us on how Brandie was, and she was in the middle of telling us about her knee. They might need to perform surgery to fix it, or they might be able to just sedate her and move it back without doing anything. She also told us about how Matty was staying there with her tonight. That pissed me off beyond belief. That fucking bastard was staying there with Brandie. She knows I gate him so why is she fucking friends with him?! Does she like pissing me off!? Obviously she does! 

Becka went to our bunk and I stayed in the back lounge. I was fucking pissed! How could Brandie do that! How could she just hang out with him!? Why does she seem to ignore me now! UGH THIS IS SO FUCKING FRUSTRAIGHTING! 

Brandie's pov 

I woke up in the same position I fell asleep in. Matty was awake and talking to two other people but I was too tired to give a fuck. I moved slightly and gave a small groan as Matty laughed. He kissed my forehead whispering, 

"Hey time to get up sleepy head." Again I groaned and Becka['s face sudden;y appeared in front of me. I screamed and we both jumped. My mom laughed half heartedly before hugging me asking, 

"How are you doing?" My shoulders rose and fell as I sighed, 

"Good I guess. I don't know how you fell after getting hit my a car..." 

Matty rolled his eyes and shook his head. I gave him a really look and he smiled and hugged me so my face was buried in his chest. I ytirf yo talk but he didn't hear or understand me cause his shirt muffled all the sounds I made. 

Finally he let me go asking, "What'd you say?" 

I rolled my eyes laughing, "That you smell nice actually. And that ur a bitch for doing that!" 

Again he hugged me exclaiming, "You love me anyway! You have to! I'm impossible not to love!"

I stuck out my tongue jokingly saying, "Whatever helps you sleep at night Mullet." 

He opened his mouth to say something but the doctor walked in. We greated him and he smiled, 

"Okay today we're moving your knee back into place. The others can stay in here if they wish. We're going to give you aesthetics and move it back without surgery." 

I nodded and everyone opted to stay. Before they gave me the aesthetics I asked, 

"Can I not have the aesthetics I wanna be able to talk to people. And besides it can't hurt that bad." Everyone looked at me like I was crazy but they agreed. 

---------------------------------------------------

Ten minutes later I had my eyes clenched shut and I was grinding my teeth in pain as they moved my knee back into place. I was wrong. It hurt like the firey pits of hell slolwy burning your flesh. 

Finally they got it back into place and I smiled painfully. The doctor laughed before asking, 

"Do you want pain medication?" 

I nodded saying, "Please." A nurse gave me some and they walked out. I looked at my knee and it was just like swollen a little. Nothing like I expected. I expected it to be like a huge soft ball and all discolored. Thank god I was wrong. 

----------------------------------------------------------

Matty was outside signing the divorce papers with his laywer. His wife had sent him to hunt Matty down. Well ex wife now technically. The only time he has to see her now is when they go to court to finalize who gets what. Matty just wants personal items from their house and all his music stuff. He doesn't even want the house. Infact before he like bought an apartment. 

Becka and my mom both hugged me before leaving. Camy and Victoria left a little while ago to meet with tour managers and tell them that I could perform in our shows next week. Matty walked back in and he looked as if someone had shot a puppy. 

I sat up and hugged him asking, "Hey you okay?" 

He nodded feebily saying, "Yeah. It's just that I loved my wife. I didn't realize it until I just signed those papers, but I think I stopped loving her a long time ago. I just feel bad because I strung her along when I guess I didn't have feelings for her anymore. Someone else walked into my life and I think I started falling for them. Realizing all that now is just kinda a lot and it's hard because, I don't think who I'm falling for sees me like that." 

I moved back so we could look each other in the eyes explaining, "Well you don't know until you ask them Matty. Don't let your fears be greater then what you feel for them. For all you know they could be head over heels for you and they might be too afraif to ask you about how you fell about them. Or they might be waiting for you to make the first move. Without sucking it up and taking a risk, without putting your heart out on the line, you'll never know." 

He shook his head whispering, "I wish it was that simple." 

My head tilted to the right in confusion as I asked, "Why isn't it?" 

Matty sighed as he looked down at his hands before looking at me saying, "Because it's you." 

My eyes widened and I demanded, "What do you mean?" 

Again Matty looked down at his hands before stating, "I'm falling for you Brandie. You're this amazing girl who's faced things that no one should ever have to face but you don't care. You act as if it's just every day life and you never complain about anything! Yes you shut people out sometimes but when it gets to much for you, you don't hesitate to ask for help! You're there for you friends and you're never cruel to anyone! You're perfect! And I'm falling for you! I have been for a long time! Brandie I think I love you!" 

In that moment there was nothing that anyone could do to stop me from what I did next. I always liked Matty, and he feels the same way about me. I leaned forward and kissed him. 

Slowly he pulled away asking, "Be my girlfriend." 

Silence fell for a few seconds before I nodded whispering, 

"Yes."
