The Bad Boy in Appt. 2D

Chapter Three

Elizabeth~

I woke up at 4 in the morning on Saturday because I wanted to drive out to the beach and lay on the sand and watch the sunrise. I threw my bathing suit on and threw a big hoodie on over it as a cover up and incase it was cold out. I left my mom a note on the counter telling her where she could find me. i decided to curl my hair because I felt like looking cute. I put on some makeup and I checked my phone hoping that Matt would be up so i could ask if he wanted to go but I had no luck. 

I grabbed my keys off of the night stand and started walking to the door. I walked outside and heard two familiar voices but I couldn't tell who it was, so I looked around trying to see if I could see anyone I knew. I looked over by John's car and saw him leaning up against it smoking a cigarette, there was someone standing next to him but I couldn't see who it was, he was also smoking a cigarette. 

My truck was parked right next to john's car so I thought I would play a little joke on them. I pushed the alarm button on my keys and my trucks alarm started going off. Both of the guys jumped up and i couldn't help but to bust out and start laughing. "Hey that wasn't funny!" I heard John say as he walked over to me.

"I thought it was pretty entertaining to see you get scared like a little bitch" I started laughing again and he just stared at me.

He finally started laughing to and I wasn't sure why. "You know what this means right?" He said still laughing, I looked at him with a confused look on my face un sure of what he would say next. "This means war." he said with a smirk forming on his face. I heard foot steps behind him and looked back to see it was Matt from the restaurant. "Matt this is Elizabeth, Elizabeth this is-" Matt cut him off.

"Yea i know who she is, This beautiful little lady came into my work last night for a bite to eat." He looked me in the eyes and smiled, I couldn't help but blush so i quickly looked at the ground and smiled. 

"So how do you guys know each other?" I asked pointing at the both.

"Well John here is my Little brother," Matt looked at John and John nodded. I was shocked I didn't know what to say so i stood there with a blank look on my face. "You surprised babe?" I looked at John who was smirking at me.

"What the fuck John!" Matt turned and punched him in the arm.. hard.. 

"What the fuck was that for asshole!" John started rubbing his arm where Matt had punched him. "Why did you hit me!"

Matt had a pissed off look on his face but he turned around, walked into his house and slammed the door shut. a few seconds later my phone lite up with a text 'I can't believe you are trying to get with my brother. Out of all people you choose him?! I really thought you were a different girl Lizzy.. I guess not. -Matthew' I don't know why that hit me so hard but it did. I suddenly felt sad and didn't know why. Maybe it was the fact that Matthew was trying to protect me from getting hurt or just the fact that he liked me and hinted that he is better for me than his brother is. Whatever it was I didn't like this feeling in my stomach. 

I put my phone away and John asked me what was wrong but I didn't want to say, so I just asked him for directions to the beach. He offered to drive me but I needed to be alone so i declined his offer. When I arrived at the beach no one was really here except a few people jogging. I laid out a blanket and laid on the sand waiting for the sun to rise right now would be the perfect time to have my sketch pad and pencil this view was to die for.

I got out my phone and text Matthew back, 'Matt I didn't even know he was your brother and I am not trying to get with him. He is just a friend. Why do you care anyway it's not like we are dating or even talking.' I sat and watched the sun rise and the waves crash on the sand when i felt my phone vibrate, 'Yea we aren't dating or talking but i don't want to see you get hurt Liz. You seem like a great girl and you know nothing about my brother.' I don't know why but i felt tears roll down my face. No guy has ever cared for me this much even though they had just met me. This is the moment when i needed Paige. She could of made everything better and make me smile but she was 400 miles away from me.
