Chasing Cars

Chapter Thirty-Seven

Matt's Pov

I open my eyes, waking up.

Or did I wake up before I opened my eyes?

Or was I awake the whole time but my eyes were closed so I thought I was asleep?

Or was I asleep the whole time but my eyes weren't closed so I though I was awake but really I was asleep, but in reality it turned out true?

What the fuck am I talking about?

I'm confuzzling myself.

I shake my head, getting all the stupid thoughts out. I look over to see Carter's gone, and so are his clothes. I pull on just my boxers, knowing it'll make him crazy.

I head out the door, and start forward to the kitchen, but stop right outside it when I hear voices.

"I do love you," Carter's voice echoes through my ears.

"If you loved me you wouldn't have let me leave you," another's voice rang out.

"How is it MY fault you left me?" Carter's voice shakes, I think he's crying.

"You shouldn't have let me leave! You shouldnt have done the things to make me leave!"

Carter's next words shock me,"You're right."

What? I don't know what the hell they're talking about, but how is it his fault if the guy left him? It would be the other guys fault!

Who is the other guy?

Wait...

Carter interrupts my thoughts,"You're very right. It's all my fault. Can we just please forget about this? Please? I love you so much, I have never loved some one as much as I love you. So please, let's just get back together, ok?"

My heart breaks at his words, and tears spring to my eyes but I force them back down. With a deep breath, I force myself to walk into the kitchen, just to be met by Carter and Taylor kissing passionately. They don't notice me, so I hurry back to Carter's room and get on my clothes. I creep out the back door and get into Cams car. When I got about 10 miles away, I pulled into an empty parking lot. I couldn't keep the tears in any more. They came bursting out like a dam that broke.

I screamed, and banged my fists onto a steering wheel. I slammed my head down on it, and sobbed.

Why?

Why why why why why whyyyy???

Why would be go back to him?! It's obviously a fucked up relationship, built for Taylor to blame everything on Carter! Why is Taylor even acting like this? He wasn't this way with Shawn.

OMG

That's it! I jut have to get him together with Shawn, then he'll leave Carter alone. Then Carter will be all mine. I quickly unlocked my phone.

6:57 am. Geez, I'm up early. I wonder if McDonalds is open...no McDonalds isn't important right now. I find Shawn's number and call him. It takes four rings but he finally answers.

"YOU FUCKING ASSHOLE WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU?" he shouts.

I can't help but laugh,"Im guessing you're not a morning person?"

"Whaat? Matt? Is that you Matt?"

"Yeah, who did you think it was?"

He was silent for a second,"Nobody. What do you want?"

I scoff,"What makes you think I want something?"

"You're calling me at 7 in the fucking morning. I don't think you just want to 'chat'"

"Wow you're really not a morning person."

"Matt just please what do you want?"

I sigh, giving up,"Um, doyouliketaylor?"

"What?"

"Do you like Taylor?" I speak clearer and with more confidence this time.

"Yeah, he's a great friend."

"No, I mean, do you like-like him?" I feel like a five year old using the term like-like.

"Oh," is all he says.

"Shawnnn."

"Mattttt."

"Come on I just want to know if you like him!"

"You only want to know so he'll stay away from Carter."

Damn he's too good,"What no, I didn't even realize like whaa?"

"Matt," he sways very seriously,"There's a reason Taylor and I aren't not together. One day, I might tell you it, but until then just stop. It's never going to happen. I'm sorry about you and Carter, you guys seemed really cute together, and if you really want him you'll have to work really hard to get him. But making Tay like someone else isn't gonna change how Carter feels. Only he can change that, and you have to help, or else he'll never be able to."

"Wow, words of wisdom from Shawn Mendes at 7 in the morning." I smile.

"Shut up." he laughs

"Seriously tho, that was really good advice. Thanks."

"No problem, just don't wake me up next time or else you'll find you're dick stapled to your forehead."

I laugh, and we say goodbye. After hanging up, I head back to Nash's. I head inside then look up, How to get the man of your dreams on google. Today was gonna be an interesting day.
