Hazel's POV
So, Matteo Tomato ended up winning....
But only because I let him...
Okay, Hazel, keep telling yourself that, perhaps it will actually be true....
Shut up, head...
I take a few puffs from my inhaler when I reach the designated finish line which MT (Matteo Tomato) crosses first by a few milliseconds btw!!
I take a few moments to catch my breath then I turn to MT with a snare...
"You good?" He says panting rapidly while walking towards me with a concerned look but I can clearly see his obvious smirk threatening to reveal itself any time soon...
"Yeah yeah, I'm good" I wave him off while finally regulating my breathing...
"Oh and I won, you lost, I won, you lost...." MT says while doing this weird victory dance...
I swear to God, this boy is a freaking sexy clown....
"Shut up MT, I clearly let you..."
"Did you, now?" He says with a smirk...
"Duh, I'm just too nice and I don't wanna deal with a crying Tomato at this time" I say trying to copy his smirk but probably failing miserably...
Matteo doesn't say anything, he just smiles at me and I think.... I think I might have seen him staring at my lips...
But who can see that well in this darkness??
Am I right?
"Come on" he says as he grabs my arm and walks away....
I smile and bite my lip looking down at our connected arms....
I know, I know, cheesy as heck... but this guy does this to me... and I just can't stop!
"And where are we going?"
"Just trust me Hazelnutty"
I roll my eyes at his newly upgraded nickname....
We've been walking for about two to three minutes now in silence, side by side with our hands still connected.
Slowly I feel Matteo's finger entwine with mine and that just does it for my heart...
911, Yeah, my heart has officially been stolen... By the one and only Matteo Garcia....
I'm blushing like crazy but thankfully it's dark out here so he probably can't see it...
I slowly look over to see him smiling to himself which just makes me smile....His smile is contagious, I swear, he's not always a happy person but when he does smile, the whole world actually stops and stares for a while....
Cause he's just so amazing, just the way he is.....
After walking for another minute or so, Matteo stops and takes his hand away from mine and I have to be honest, it feels weird without his hand in mine anymore....
"Close your eyes" he says standing in front of me...
"Bitch, no.... I don't know what you could be planning" I say to him...
"Come on, trust me" He says while laughing...
I roll my eyes and close my eyes and then I feel Matteo's hand back in mine as he leads me somewhere....
I hear a door open open and we walk a few more steps before he says to open my eyes again....
I open my eyes and lo and behold, before me is what I assume a thousand different flavours of ice cream....
