After the chaotic time of meeting Sierra & standing with my brother watching matt & her basically quietly fight they both stopped bickering but Sierra didn't leave whatever Matt said to her she stopped and obviously just agreed , we're all now around some part of Zacky & genas decking area on there back yard , Jason berry , Johnny , Jimmy  & Brian all playing beer pong , Michelle , Lacey , leana , Gena and Val all sitting at the table talking with there drinks , zacky & Matt Berry are currently sitting talking one the pools sun loungers talking , Matt and Sierra are standing watching the guys play beer pong while I stand talking with Dan "the body" & Mine & Zacky's younger brother Matt and our older sister Zina...

"Nothings really changed around here has it?"I say smiling as I stand sipping on my drink
"Apart from that"dan says nudging his head over to Matt and Sierra
I look over and notice Sierra is looking over at me glaring , I roll my eyes turning away and shrugging...
"She's such slut"Zina says giving Sierra dirty look "I don't know what Matt sees in that bitch"she adds before storming away over to the beer pong table
"And on that note I better go watch her before she explodes"dan says sighing following our sister

I shake my head laughing lightly has he walks away following our sister , Dan laughs also , I look over watching Zina give Sierra another dirty look has she watches the guys play beer pong , I notice matt looking over at me and dan I smile lightly at him and he smiles back before turning away watching the guys play beer pong again....

"His never shut up about you , you know"dan says
I turn looking at him
"What?"I say
"Matt"dan says
"Everybody keeps saying that"I say sighing
"He really does still love you Ab"dan says
"I don't know about loving me dan I guess he cares still but I don't know if he loves me"I say
"Well his crazy not to"dan says nudging me
I laugh
"Thanks you stud"I say nudging him back
He laughs
"It's good to have you back little one"he says patting my shoulder before walking over to zacky and the others...

I smile and sip on my drink while I look over the over to the side me looking out at the ocean and beach infront my brothers and Gina's back garden...

"Enjoying the view?"I hear voice say from behind me
I spin round noticing Matt standing not far away from me...
"Oh erm yeah"I say smiling
He smiles and steps forward standing next to me sipping on his beer...
"I love this place"matt says looking out over the beach
"Yeah me too"I say looking up at Matt smiling up at him
Matt looks back looking down at me
"What?"matt says
"Nothing"I say shrugging before looking down taking sip my drink
"Ab there's something you don't look at me like that so what is it?"matt asks
I sigh
"It's nothing matt"I say
"Abs"Matt says stepping closer
I sigh
"It's just yo..."I stop myself when I notice the chain around his neck with a ring hanging from it the chain is a chain I bought matt years ago for his 18th birthday & the ring hanging off the chain is promise ring he gave to me on my sixteenth birthday I sent it back to him when I moved to Oxford , I step closer to Matt putting my hand on the ring rubbing my finger slightly over it , Matt looks down noticing what I've noticed then looks up , I look up into his eyes...

"You still have it?"I say quietly wide eyed slightly
"Off course"matt mumbles
I step closer to Matt
"I can't believe you still have this"I mumble
"It's best thing I own"matt mumbles back
I bite my lip looking up into matts eyes , I place my hand that was holding the chain onto his cheek..
"I've missed you so much matty "I mumble tearing up
Matt places his free hand over my hand that's on his cheek and steps closer
"I've missed you so much to abs"Matt mumbles "you have no idea"he adds mumbling
I sigh rest my forehead on matts and he leans down slightly closer as he does , a voice screeches from the side of us...

"Matthew!!"sierras voice screeches
Matt closes his eyes sighing
I bite my lip
"Duty calls"I mumble
Matt opens his eyes and stares into my eyes
"Abs"he mumbles
"It's ok"I mumble back
Matt sighs kisses tip my nose before pulling away from our embrace turning towards Sierra...
"Yes Sierra"he says pissed off
Sierra glares at me
"Everybody's heading inside baby we should follow them!"she says turning away from me looking at Matt
"Sierra I'll be right there ok abs just got home can't I hold conversation with her for more than two minutes I haven't seen her in really long time!"matt says
"You know it's funny upon till now nobody even mentioned absinth!"Sierra says gritting her teeth together
"It's abi!"me and Matt say at the same time
She shrugs
"Whatever come on Matthew"she says before turning away & stomping away into my brothers house
Matt sighs and turns towards me...
"I'm so sorry abs"Matt says
I sigh and shake my head
"It's ok"I say "it's not your fault matt"I add kissing matts cheek before walking off into my brothers house as I step inside Sierra is standing at the kitchen counter talking with Gina as I step in she stops talking and glares over at me, I roll my eyes and walk over placing my glass down picking up my bag that's on my brothers kitchen counter...
"Hey g I'm going to head back to mom and dads house I'm really jet legged"I say making up excuse to get out the house because of sierras bitchyness towards me
Gina looks at me and steps around the counter...
"Oh babe you sure you going to be ok heading back?"she asks sighing pulling me into hug

Gina nods
"Ok we'll text me when you get home"she says
"I will see you later"I say smiling I turn to Sierra "bye Sierra"I add politely as possible
"Bye absinth!"she says through gritted teeth
I roll my eyes has Gina gives her dirty look before walking out the kitchen and into the Lounge where my brother & the rest the guys and girls are....
