Matilda is a normal teenager. She has brown hair and blue eyes and people who are close to her call her Mati. She is a warm-hearted girl with a secret. Her secret is that she is the daughter of a gang leader. No one knows about this because she trie...
I kinda wake up but I'm in that state where you are asleep but you know that you are awake. I am so uncomfortable from sleeping on the edge of the bed so I roll over and find a very comfy cushion so I cuddle close to the cushion and fall back to sleep.
TOM'S POV (surprise!!)
I wake up and I watch her lie on the other side of the bed. Its like she is afraid of me, just like every other person. She is gorgeous. I am so glad that I am going to marry her. I just need to get her to like me back. I don't know why but every time I'm around her I get a weird sensation in my stomach. I make a mental note, got to the doctors. I would do anything for her not to find out who I am really.
She starts stirring and I hold my breath trying not to wake her up. She just rolls over and cuddles me in the chest. Her brown hair lays effortlessly perfect on my chest. I know that this is something that I can get used to. I start fiddling with her hair. Suddenly I get a text from Logan.
He is here.
I know what this means. I quickly get out of bed and try not wake her and place her head on a pillow. She looks so peaceful. I shake my head and try to get this thought out of my head. I can't think like this. I have a reputation and this text will prove it. I get dressed and leave but before I do I take a quick picture of her, to capture this moment forever. I leave and head downstairs, back to reality.
Mati's POV.
I wake up to find no one lying next to me, just the longing scent of vanilla in the air. I get out of bed and get into the shower. When I get out I apply some mascara and put on a red hoodie and some ripped jeans. (Outfit below)

I get some breakfast but there is no one around. It's kinda spooky so I go and look for someone to talk too. I see a maid and ask her where Tom is but she looks at me scared but she won't tell me where he is. I walk around until I hear a sound come from the basement. I open the door and now I can hear screams coming from down the stairs. I walk down the stairs but my heart is racing a million beats a second. I see Ethan coming up the stairs with blood all over his shirt. I gasp. He sees me.
"Mati, what are you doing here," he asks frantically trying to push me up the stair.
"Whats down there," I ask and then I hear a piercing scream. "Tell me whats down there or I'll just have to go down there myself," I ask.
He looks at me in shock. "You can't see whats down there," he says. I stand there persistently and he signs and throws me over his shoulder. I scream and hit his back but he just keeps walking. I have an idea. I slowly slide down his front until my foot is near enough to his crutch. I use as much force as I can and kick him there. He lets go of me and drops to his knees and I run down the stairs.
When I reach the bottom, I see something I wish I had never seen. There is a man sitting in a chair. He is covered in blood and Tom stands beside him with a whip. He is asking him questions but every time the man doesn't say anything, Tom whips him. The shriek comes out of the man's mouth is scaring. It rings over and over again in my head like a broken record.
