(A/N: If you amazing people have any chapter suggestions, please feel free to tell me! I'll try to reply to every comment! I love talking to you guys! And no, sadly the art above is not mine.)

After the fight years ago, you and Matt had grown apart. He was upset that you had stopped talking to him. You and Linda were friends, and she would let you lean on her shoulder after every fight you had with Matt.

You two fought a lot. It had grown to become an everyday thing. Every time it left you hurt. You even stopped talking to Mello just so you could get away from him. After Mello left unexpectedly, Matt was sad. You felt bad but couldn't help Matt.

Now everyone is worried about you. All except for Matt, of course. He has other things to worry about. You haven't been sleeping, you're barely touching your food, and most of the day is spent in your room. You thought your life is as bad as it can get, but today will change everything.

It got worse... 

Your POV

I was up at two again, toying with the new invention I created. It was almost like a computer, but it was smaller and it was just for hacking. I guess you could call it a bug. I was very proud, but I wanted someone else to be proud of it. Almost like I wanted...

Matt to be proud of it...

I shook the thought away. No. Matt wouldn't be pleased. I would just start another fight. I sighed. Why did we grow so far apart? We had so much in common. We could have been buddies, but I just had to screw it up. No! You need to stop thinking this way!

A creaking sound broke me from my thoughts. I stood up, careful not to drop anything, and quietly walked to the door. It was already open. Strange... Maybe that was the creaking sound I heard. But... I keep my door closed, which means...

Quietly, I looked through the crack. What I saw was unexpected. 






It was Matt! He was standing at the door, and by the looks of it, he was about to open the door all the way! I ran to my bed as quietly as I could and pretended to be asleep. I heard the creak of the door as it opened, flinching at the noise. I could feel eyes burning a hole through me, staring at me. Ugh, I absolutely hate it when people stare at me!

I heard light footsteps walk over to me. My heart started to race and I began to panic. What if he finds out I'm awake?! What is he doing?! Why is he coming near me?! 

The footsteps stopped at the foot of my bed. I could tell Matt was staring at me. He walked softly to the nightstand and placed a paper on it, then kneeled down next to the bed so our faces were even. It was hard to fake sleep, especially when the guy that fights with you is sitting right next to you!

"I'm leaving, but just know it isn't personal. I may fight with you, but... I-i really like you. Don't stay this way. Live like you did before all those big fights. Please. If not for me, then for yourself. I'm sure we'll meet again... Mello was your friend too... It was wrong for me to fight with you, and Mello has a good friend. Stay strong, and don't let anyone hurt you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything I have done." Matt whispers, and I was fighting the urge to slap him away from my face. 

I thought he would leave after he was done talking, but instead, he moved the hair out of my face. He tucked that one stray strand behind my ear and kissed my forehead softly. I was stunned. My breath caught in my throat, but I forced myself to breathe, so Matt thought I was still sleeping. He stood up, and I desperately wanted to spring up. I wanted to hug him. I wanted to tell him that he has no reason to be sorry, that he has no reason to leave, that we can start anew. But, I knew if I did that, Matt would take back everything. Or at least... That's what I thought he would do. 

He ran out quietly, and... I was left here.I started to cry. It was uncontrollable. All these feelings I bottled up, all these tears I dammed up, they all poured out. Everything... Hurt. He really left... He's really gone...


Matt's POV

I left, and as I ran, I thought about what I said to [Y/n]. I started all those fights. I don't deserve someone like [Y/n]. As I ran further and further from Wammy's, it started to hurt me. I can't go back... I'm gone. I've removed myself from the one person's life I truly liked;


[Y/n]...

BOOM! How's that for a dramatic chapter? XD I'm such a butt. Sue me if you'd like, but remember;

You're not supposed to bite the hand that feeds you! 

XD I made you guys wait so long for this piece of crap, I'm so sorry. Blame me if you'd like, but hey! It's not my fault procrastination is a thing. Anyways, it's trash, I know, don't kill me! You guys know that you still love this and I'm making it ten times better with this. Did I make your butterflies scatter? No? I'll have to try harder next time...

One more thing before I go, I'd like to know how many creatures on Wattpad would like me to make it so gender is not specified. So, I'll take a count on how many want it, versus how many don't, then I'll decide from there. It'll probably look something like (His/her) or (He/she) if majority is in Unisex's favour. So, on that happy note...

Have a good day/night/talk with your voices!
