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

Chapter 124

Brandie's pov 

Matty and I were back in the park eating our ice cream and being idiots. 

A fan walked up to us and asked sheepishly, "Hey can I get a picture with you guys?" 

I stood up smiling, "Yes! Of course! And I'm hyper off ice cream so yeah." 

Her friend came over and we signed their shirts before taking pictures. Then I dragged them to get ice cream. Yup I got more. Matty was calling me crazy the whole time. We actually never got lunch. 

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

The girls parted ways and I asked, "When do we fly back home?" 

His smile grew at me calling it home and he shrugged, "Tomorrow evening. Then tomorrow night at like 10 we leave for tour. Oh and Low Scar joined last minute babe." 

I squealed and tackled him in a hug saying, "My gosh! You guys love keeping secrets from me!" 

Once again he shrugged before laughing, "Only when they're so amazing that when I tell you you hug me." 

"Well how about this," I smiled before planting my lips on his. We kissed for a few minutes and I puled away a little breathless asking, 

"Was that better?" 

He noddedsmiling, "Way better." 

Matty stood up since we fell when I hugged him. He extended I hand and I took it gacefully as he pulled me up. 

-------Next Morning------

I woke up a tangle of mine and Matty's limbs. We fell asleep on the couch watching tv. 

Carefully I moved and went to go shower, but I tripped over my suitcase. It's five in the morning and I'm tired. Our hotel room is clean except for my suitcase on the floor cause I moved it to do something. I forget what.

I landed with a thud and Matty chuckled groggily asking, "You okay baby?" 

The only sound I admitted was a groaned as I pushed myself up. I heard him sitting up and I did an army crawl the rest of the way to the bathroom. What? I'm too lazy to get up. 

Matty picked me up and carried me away from the bathroom laughing, "You're telling me about Father Jones. You said you would last night." 

Dammit he remembered. 

I sighed before saying, "Welll he saved me from bullies and stuff. So whenever I had problems I would go to him. Eventually I stopped going because yes he's like a dad to me but he never will BE my dad. I guess it just got to me one day. And I couldn't think of a better way then asking him this. He always said that if he had a daughter he hoped to be able to perform her wedding ceremony. He helped me make some of my dreams come true so I wanna make his." 

Matty hugged me before kissing my forehead smiling, "You could not be a better person."

My shoulders rose and fell as I sighed, "I can be a way better person. Seeing how I haven't finished my promise yet." My eyes widened and I slapped a hand over my mouth. 

Matty looked confused before asking, "What promise?" 

I glanced at the doors but Matty grabbed my wrists gently saying, "I'd rather not start off our marriage with secrets." 

A sigh escaped my lips and I pushed my hair back. I waited a few seconds before saying, 

"It's this thing that happened when I was like 15. I made a promise to God and I haven't finished it yet." 

I looked down as Matty asked, "What was it?" 

My breath hitched and finally I breathed out, "I promised to find the guy that hit my dad and I. And I promised that I would move past this, and I haven't been able to do either. That's why I could be a better person." 

Matty tilted my chin up and made me look him in the eye and kissed me before whispering, "That doesn't mean anything. You're still an amazing person. I don't care about those promises."
