𝑆𝐿𝑈𝑇. - mattia polibio

five .

i turn around to see mattia's head poke through the window.
"oh?" he says, "kairi since when were you friends with y/n?"
"someone's jealous," i say teasing.
kairi points out the fact that his face turns a light pink, "matt you blushing?"
he tries to hide his face, "yo shut the fuck up"
i try to hide my laugh but i accidentally let out a giggle, which makes mattia more embarrassed.
"can you just answer the damn question?"
"oh y/n? we met like 5 minutes ago."
"and you already showed her the spot? she has to be in the group for that."
"you're telling me i have to have some sort of introduction shit just to sit on this roof?"
mattia nods.
"aight i can just leave," i say already opening the window.
"nah nah," mattia yells back, "you can stay."
i smile, "thanks for the suggestion but i need to find my friend anyway."

he looks almost disappointed when i left. what if he actually has feelings for me? no way. this is how he gets every girl to like him, making them think he's into them. i know it.

i stumble out of the window, falling onto the floor.
"think you," i say as someone helps me up.
"wait natalie?" i do a double take. "where have you been?"
she looks scared, "i'll explain later. there's not enough time we gotta leave now."
"why?" i say in confusion.
she doesn't answer, pulling me through the crowds of people yet again.
"talie you're insane, just tell me."
she still doesn't reply, now pushing me into the car.
once the car doors are shut she begins to cry. her tears were streaming down her fast rapidly as she tried to wipe them away, smudging her mascara.
"oh my god!" i say hugging her, "what fucking happened?"
"look." she says holding out her phone - it was a naked picture of me taken from someone outside my window.
"what the fuck.
    i-i, where? where did you get these?" i say, my voice shaking.
"we were playing a different version of that game 'photo roulette' when everyone's pictures from their phones get mixed up and you have to guess whose is whose. this picture game up and the game ended, i don't fucking know who had it y/n it was at least 45 people playing, it could've been anyone at that party."
i tried to speak but words didn't come out.
"the worst part," she says, "is that everyone screenshotted the picture. i've seen it on people's stories already."
"w-what are they saying?"
"y/n they think you sent it out. they're calling you a slut."
i didn't know what to do. my body began to shut down.
"do we go to the police?"
"i already called them. they said they can't do anything until we have more evidence, i don't even know if the guy on the other line was sober."
"oh my god. oh my god." i look at her. "drive. please drive, anywhere."
as she begins to start the car i see mattia running up the car,
"hey mamas, dw i wasn't missing you i just brought you your jacket."
i reach out of the car to get my jacket and he gets a good look at my streaming mascara.
"holy shit are you okay?"
"i'm fine. it's nothing."
"no fr y/n, what's going on?"
"please drive talie."
"wait wait!" he says, "i just want to know if you're okay that's all."
"i'll be fine."
"let me in the car," he says.
"no." natalie and i say in unison.
"natalie you're in no place to be driving, and i'm
not letting y/n, so let me drive."
we look at each other.
"you know what," natalie says, "fine."
"what?" i ask.
"i said fine." she says getting into the back seat of the car.
mattia gets in the front seat, quickly sending kairi a text.
"where am i driving to?"
we both shrug, "anywhere."
he pulls out of the driveway, "so is someone going to tell me what's wrong?"
