bitch : m.c.

agreement

summer sat on the edge of her bed, trying to type out a message that didn't sound stupid.

matt: die you read the chapter?

matt: did* :/

text to matt: yea i guess

matt: did you or did you not

text to matt: i did.

matt: ok

matt: omw

text to matt: wait im not ready

matt: okay?

summer clicked her phone off and walked downstairs, telling her mom about their visitor. summer's phone went off and she looked at the notification, sighing.

ian (kevin lol): how was yesterday's trip to the library?

ian (kevin lol): omg im so sorry summer

summer heard a knock on her door and opened it, meeting eye contact with matt.

"where's your text book?" matt was holding onto his bookbag in one hand and his phone in the other hand. summer walked upstairs and grabbed her textbook from her book bag, turning and looking at matt in the door way.

"what?" summer put her hand on her hip. matt dropped his stuff down next to her bed and got down on the floor, messing around in his book bag.

"matt we are not working in my room."

"i don't care." he shot a glare at her before pulling out his text book and a couple pens and pencils. summer rolled her eyes and sat on her bed, opening her textbook and grabbing the notes she had written down the other day. summer looked at her phone, looking at the notifications that came up.

ian (kevin lol): summer

ian (kevin lol): summer i need to talk to you

ian (kevin lol): Summer.

ian (kevin lol): SUMMER

ian (kevin lol): SUMMER

ian (kevin lol): someone broke into my house summer please answer

text to ian (kevin lol): are you ok? did you call the cops?

matt stood up and looked at a few messages on his phone before walking out of the room.

"hey! matt! matthew!! matthew champion!" summer was struggling to get out of her room because she was shaking. "matt!"

"what!" matt turned around on the stairs, looking at summer. "i have somewhere to be. right now."

"ian."

"what?"

"take me to ian's"

"no!" matt rose his voice at summer, making her wince a bit. "i'm not taking you there, summer."

summer looked at the multiple messages coming from ian on her phone, more panicky than the last.

text to ian (kevin lol): IAN

ian (kevin lol): summer stop texting me whoever is in my house is going to hear my phone vibrate.

summer's vision was blurring from the tears and she could barely see anything 5 inches away from her. before she knew it she was crying. she walked into her room and closed the door, laying on her bed and getting under her covers. a few messages showed on her phone.

matt: don't cry.

matt: it'll be okay.

summer gritted her teeth and just closed her eyes, wiping the tears away. she felt extremely tired and eventually fell asleep, dreaming of a less life threatening situation.

summer woke up a few hours later, sitting up and making eye contact with matt who was sitting at the edge of her bed writing.

"ian's okay." matt assured summer quietly, looking at his phone. summer studied the bruise on his cheek, fixing herself in the bed and getting up, walking to her bathroom. she looked at herself in the mirror, brushing her hair slowly. she heard matt sigh in the other room, before he put his stuff on the floor.

"do you want me to type up the presentation?"

"i guess."

summer grabbed her computer out of her book bag and typed in the password, opening up the powerpoint application. matt handed her his notes and she took the notes she had on her desk and started combining them. summer would occasionally get texts from ian, and to that she would put off the messages, believing that what matt said was true.

"you know you can leave matt." summer sat up in her bed, moving her computer off of her lap.

"i'm staying for a few more hours, we have to get this presentation done." matt rolled his eyes and looked back down at his phone.

summer looked at the notifications on her phone and decided to text ian.

text to ian (kevin lol): hey. matt told me you were ok and ive been working on our project, sorry i didnt respond :(

ian (kevin lol): its ok, i guess yall are getting along?

text to ian (kevin lol): barely. ttyl.

ian (kevin lol): o kay

summer continued typing up the notes, changing things here and there, and for the next few hours, summer felt calm. like everything was gonna be okay. matt had started packing his stuff up and he was getting ready to leave.

"hey." matt spoke up, getting up off the floor.

"what."

"finish the project. see you tomorrow." and with that he left. any sort of hope he was being nice for a split second was gone. she shrugged it off, continuing to work on the presentation.

matt: dont work yourself to death. i did a lot.

summer looked at the message and saved the powerpoint, closing her computer and putting everything away. she got up and went into her bathroom, brushing her teeth and washing her face. she changed into shorts and a t shirt and walked back into her room, noticing matt's hoodie on the floor. she had two choices. wear it or wear it.

summer went to sleep with the scent of matt on her.
