Real (Matthew Sherrill fanfic)

Chapter 22

Recap

"Chlo...i don't know if you can here me but I want you to know that since I have been here I've realized that...well I love you and I want you to be mine! forever! I'm so sorry I did this to you!" Matthew confessed. I couldn't believe it! he loves me? I love him! We would be together at last! that's what I wanted and that's what I needed! I tried to get out of this pond but I couldn't! I banged and banged on this thing. it was so strong! This stupid sheet of strong substance that was holding me down! it was holding me from my future with Matthew and holding me from my life and I was finally sick of it! so I let myself fall back down in the water and then I swam with all of my strength and I rammed myself into it and crack. I was out and it was broke. I walked up on the land and everything went black.

End of Recap

Chloe's P.o.v.

I opened my eyes and it was all blurry. the room was different. I was in a bed and there was someone standing beside my bed. my eyes fluttered and I could see clearly now. the boy was crying and was holding my hand. it was matthew. he didn't see that I was awake yet because his eyes were closed. I took and deep breath and grabbed him and pulled him on the bed with me. before he could do anything he was laying in my bed with me and I was holding on to him. there wasn't any space between our bodies.

"I missed you so much!" I said starting to cry. I was now laying on his chest with my arms wrapped around his stomach. he had his around my waist.

"I missed you to!!" He said sobbing still. "so much!"

We stopped crying and just laid there in silence for a while. But I had the urge to say something.

"Matthew...how long was I gone?"

"About two weeks." he whispered.

"Who all came to see me?"

"My whole family, harris, me, your brothers and sister, and parents."

I signed.

"It was them in the pond." I said.

"What are you talking about Chloe?" he said confused. I took a deep breath in.

"When I was unconscious I was in a pond thing. well I really don't know what it was but it was really deep. and I sank to the bottom for a while. then I heard a voice. it was calling name telling me to fight and not give up. it was you. you saved me. so I fought and I swam back to the top. I kept hearing all these other voices to. they said they were my parents but I didn't believe them. I didn't care either. my parents didn't care about me before so why would they care now? but you talked to me a lot. and I heard you say that you loved me. that's what made me fight the most. I wanted to see you and I wanted to talk to you. I just wants you." I said confessing everything. Matthew's faces got red and when our eyes met he looked away.

"What's wrong?" I asked referring to how he wouldn't look at me.

"Nothing I'm just-" right at that moment I saw that his eyes were red and he smelled like.... like weed.

"Matthew why are your eyes red? and why do you smell like weed? what have you been doing?" I asked as tears started to flow down my face. then I remembered right before all of this happened and it all clicked.

"That's what you were gonna tell me wasn't it? you were doing drugs.. how could you?" I scream. "how could you do this to me?"

"I'm sorry." was all he said.

"Get out of my room. please. I.i just need to think ok." I said without any feeling.

He left and a nurse came in. it was all hectic after that. I think because I screamed and they realized I wasn't suppose to be awake.
