My Heart Is Always With You(Watty Awards 2012)

When Matt Met Nicole

Well I’m glad that Matt and I don’t have to deal with Tara anymore. Now we can just focus on us and move on with our lives. It’s actually a funny story how Matt and I met. Matt and I met in the beginning of our senior year of high school. I was the new girl in school, and when I walked into my math class, our teacher had me sit next to him. “Hi I’m Matt.” Matt said smiling at me. “Nice to meet you Matt. I’m Nicole” I said smiling back. We pretty much talked the entire class, and our teacher got so mad that she sent me and him outside. While we were outside, Matt and I talked and laughed some more. “Wow is Mrs. Taylor always like that?” I asked him smiling. “Yeah it’s just because she has nothing better to do.” Matt said cracking up. “Hey Nicole do you want to sit with me and my friends at lunch?” He asked me. “Yeah sure I’d love to.” I say grinning.

                At lunch, Matt and I went over to his friends and sat down. “Hey who’s this?” Ashley asked Matt. “Oh this is Nicole guys. Nicole, this is Brian, his girlfriend Ashley, Zacky and his girlfriend Kristan, and Jimmy and his girlfriend April” Matt said introducing me to everybody. “Nice to meet you guys” I said smiling at them. From that day on, all 8 of us became close. I became best friends with the girls, and we get along pretty well. I finally had a group of friends that I latched on to, and it felt great, and it was about to get even better. One day, Matt came over to invite me to watch his band practice. “So do you wanna come along?” “Sure Matt” I smiled. I really like him. He was cute, funny, smart, and he had the cutest dimples I have ever seen on a guy. “So what’s your band called Matt?” I asked him. “Avenged Sevenfold” he told me. When we got to his house, everybody else was there already. The practice went well, and I even met this guy named Johnny, who was usually there watching.

                That weekend, I decided to throw a party since I had the house to myself since my parents were gone for the weekend. It was alot of fun, but pretty crazy. Everybody was drunk, and the funniest moment was when Jimmy started to sing some Spice Girl song, and he was completely trashed. Then I see Zacky having a full on conversation with a lamp, and Kristan was laughing the whole time. “Hey hey hey why are you so alone?” Zacky asked the lamp. “Babe that’s a lamp. It’s not a person.” Kristan said giggling. “No babe it’s not! Hey shut up I’m talking now!” Zacky said yelling at the lamp. “Ok we’re leaving babe. You had way too much to drink.” Kristan said pulling Zacky out of the house. While this was going on, Matt and I went up to my room. When we were in my room, we talked, and then he kissed me, and asked me out on a date. The next night, Matt and I went on our date and it was so much fun. We went to dinner, and it was pretty romantic. The night ended with us walking down on the beach, and falling asleep there under the stars. Ever since that night, Matt and I have been together, and I love him so much, and I’ll always be there for him, and be his biggest fan.
