Falling Away with You (Belldom)

Unintended (part 3)

I hope y'all are liking this if anyone is even reading this, I know it kinda sucks and is a bit cliche but idk im bored and u know

Matt's POV

It was finally the last class of the day, English Literature.
We had to write a text of our choice, a speech, a poem a short story of any theme we wanted, we hadn't been able to do this type of free writing in a while, I was nervous as all the lyrics from last week where still so loud in my head.

Damn, 15 minutes left and my paper was still blank.
My mind suddenly had a rush of energy and I wrote

You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended

Wait...is this a...love song? I think it is...god Matt you really are weird.

You could be the one I'll always love
You could be the one who listens
To my deepest inquisitions
You could be the one I'll always loveI'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
Pieces of the life I had beforeFirst there was the one who challenged
All my dreams and all my balance
She could never be as good as you
You could be my unintended
Choice to live my life extended
You should be the one I'll always loveI'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
Pieces of the life I had beforeI'll be there as soon as I can
But I'm busy mending broken
Pieces of the life I had beforeBefore you

I gasped I felt out of breathe, in the span of 6 minutes all the lyrics had flown onto my paper.
"Ok guys, who wants to share what they have written?" asked the teacher.
A couple of people read their poems, personally I thought they were pretty crap, and the usual cliche stuff-shut up Matt, you wrote a love song... 

The bell rang and I got up to leave.
"Matt, you left this."
I turned around to see Dom holding my paper. Shit. I snatched it from him before he had a chance to read anything, good thing my writing sucks.
"Uh, thanks Dom."
I rushed out of the class, my face was burning. I could see from the corner of my eye that Dom looked a little confused...
"Hey, Bellamy wait up!"
Chris was running down the corridor with Dom desperately trying to keep up behind him.
"I am walking home with you today. Something isn't right about you, I want to help you Matt."
"I'm fine Chris...don't worry."
"Still walking with you."

All three of us walked out of the school gate, Dom waved to us as he walked to the bus stop down the hill.
Usually all three of us would take the bus, but Chris had told Dom he needed to talk to me in a calm time, such as the 20 minute walk home instead of a 10 minute bus ride.

"So, tell me Matt, what's up?"
"Nothing."
"Matt- you haven't been yourself all day and you ghosted both Dominic and I, he was quite upset, do you have an explanation? Is everything ok?"
"Well, I, Chris, it's, it's Dom- I don't know how to explain, but since he talked to me last Sunday, I felt like I actually have a chance with him...but I'm too nervous, and all last week i faked sick and spent all day trying to write lyrics for our new songs, but all I could think of is love songs, it's Dom, I'm so nervous around him..."
"Damn Matt, you really aren't good at handling emotions are you? I can help you, I'm always here for you, so is Dom. Is that what you where writing in English?"
Before I could form an answer, Chris had snatched my paper that I was still holding, dammit why hadn't I had the brains to put it in my bag.
"Hey! Give it back Wolstenholme!"
"I want to read Matty Bellamy's love songs wait a sec!"
I jumped up in attempt to grab the paper, I missed.
"Matt, these are some good lyrics, you should let Dom read them too."
"Heh heh, well, there's a little problem there, they are written about Dom"
Chris smirked.
"You have a crush! You have a crush!"
"Shut up! I don't, I just like him a little, or a lot..."
"Oh Matt this is wonderful! I'm gonna help you get with Dom, you fabulous midget."
"Watch it, I'm almost as tall as you..."
Chris chuckled, "keep dreaming Bellamy, keep dreaming."
We walked until we reached my house, I thanked Chris for caring about me and making fun of my crush on Dom.
"That's what friends are for, I'll see you tomorrow! Don't forget the lyrics! Oh and your confidence!"
"Yeah yeah I know!"

Chris liked to make fun of me, but in the end he would always be a good friend that was willing to help me out.
I just hoped he was right about Dom liking me back... and it wouldn't be awkward...
