4. And This Is How It Starts

/ / A N N I E / /

It was past midnight and as usual I was past the legal driving limits, so I guess I was staying the night. I knew it was too early to sleep and that even if I went to bed it'd be too loud downstairs for me to get any rest anyway. The best place for me was Matty's arms.
Rain started to patter down onto my head, causing me to squirm, wanting to get inside as soon as possible so that my hair remained straight.
"It always looks perfect Annes don't fret babe, just stay with me for a while,"
I replied with a sigh, Matty then made an almost in audible plea, that managed to fill my ears causing my brain to go into overdrive.
Isn't it weird how you can live for so long, for so many years without a certain scent or taste, yet in one word, one moment it can all come back, all the urges come rushing back.
Right in this moment, say here with Matty brings me back to that night two years ago. The night Matt and I messed about. God, I was high as a kite that night but I still remember the look in his eyes as he was touching me, the way he made my skin tingle, causing moans to escape my mouth. And in this moment, it's all I wanted, he was all I ever craved. I knew it was easy giving up the fake friends that used me for the band and to get weed but not matty. I could never give him up.

Our eyes connect as he lowers his head the raindrops and moonlight bouncing off his face perfectly. Everything moved in slow motion, as cliché as it sounds it was true, the only thing that wasn't slowed down in this moment was my heart. It was beating at rocket speed, so hard I'm pretty sure Matty could hear it and if not feel it.

He licked his lips so that they glistened, this boy is too much to take and I can't wait for him to hurry up and connect our lips. So instead of him to do it, I take thing into my hands. I've had enough if him always being in control and being such a tease, who says a woman can't take control in a relationship. No, what! No, we're not in a relationship! I'm in a relationship with John, not Matty! I shouldn't be doing this. I'm relapsing back to him after all these years. I raise myself to be on my tippy toes and connect my lips, just as I remember, just as I craved. He was perfect.
I swiped at his bottom lip begging for permission immediately causing myself embarrassment as he pulled away shaking his head in shame. Tears filled my eyes, threatening to expose my true identity, the weak one as always. sure Matty had seen me cry before but he'd never been the one to cause the tears.
Matty walked away, looking back at me with eyes full of hatred. I'd never seen Matty this way before. I'd always be the one to calm him down but when he was like this one of the boys would take me home or he'll go on a walk. I was scared. I know how strong he is and i know understand why Adam doesn't want me ending up with him, he can't control his temper.
Little does he know Johns worse...
