Up top is mats
Mario and I talked about random things like why grass is green and why birds fly but penguins don't and all that weird stuff when he asked me "grace....I just wanted to know....if......if you feel you know awkward around me"
i was kind of scared for what he was going to say and then he continued "I don't feel awkward around you I actually feel.....really comfortable....I just wanted to know...if ya"
I laughed slightly and said to him "I don't feel awkward at all I love being around you"
He kind of started to blush and I've never seen him do that.
We both finished our breakfast and put it in the sink when Mario's phone rang
"Hello" he answered.
"Hey Mario I just wanted to say...um when are you going to you know te-
Mario cut him off and said.
"Listen mats I'm not telling.. He paused for a second and looked at me and started to walk upstairs but I could still here muffles of the words he's saying
"I'm not going to tell her anytime soon until she is more comfortable around me I don't want scare her I want to tell her everything from top to bottom"
"Okay okay I got it but when you do make sure that you know what your saying she is going to be scared either way....unless......unless she really really likes you"
"Whatever man I'll call you later she's already probably wondering what the heck is wrong with me and these phone calls"
(Mario's P.O.V (point of view)
I opened the door to grace standing there probably listening
"Are you okay" she asked
"Ya I'm fine....why"
"Because your always having these weird phone calls with some random dude named mats and everytime I ask you about him you freak out at me" I said/yelled.
"Mats is NO ONE he is just one of my old friends"
"fine then can I meet him"
He paused for a second and said "no......never"
"But why?!?"
"Grace this is just stupid why do you want to meet him"
"Because! Mario when you asked me if I felt awkward.....I actually do! Your not telling me who this guy is and I feel like he's bothering you"
"WHO CARES, WHY DO YOU" he tried to calm him self but he just got even more pissed off "GRACE YOU SOMETHING ARE JUST MEANT TO BE LEFT ALONE I DONT NEED YOU TO BOTHER ME ABOUT IT"
I looked at him straight in the eyes and said "WELL IM SO SORRY THAT I ACTAULLY CARE ABOUT YOU" I had enough I stomped down stairs but before I could reach the door he grabbed my wrist really hard and said "GRACE........please......just DONT LEAVE"
"WHY? ALL YOU DO IS ARGUE WITH ME.....YOU KNOW IF I BOTHER YOU SO MUCH ILL JUST GO I DONT NEED YOU TO SNAP ON ME ALL THE TIME"

he let go of my wrist and without hesitating I left. I got in my car and drove to Jennifer's house but before I actually stepped foot outside and knocked on her door I called to make sure it was okay for me to stay for awhile.

I knocked on her door and said "hey" trying not look sad or angry
"Hey grace come in why glum" Jennifer always had a great spirit she was always so happy and she tried not to get into all the trouble but for me I just go diving in for it.
"Nothing.....just mario"
"Ughh why are you living with him still"
"Honestly I have no idea"
We walked upstairs to her room and we both sat cross legged on her bed. Her parents were gone to work they are doctors so they work full time from 7:00 A.M until 12:00 P.M.

"So what happened....if you don't mind sharing"
"Nothing just Mario getting mad at me"
She looked at me in a confused way and said "for what being too good for him"
i laughed and said "thanks but no it's because he has this friend-
She cut me of and said "ohhhh"
"No it's not a girl it's a guy- she cut me off again
"Wait he's gay?"
" Oh my gosh no let me finish" I said laughing.
"His name is mats and Mario is not telling me who he is and every time I ask he snaps out on me"
After I told her all about what happened we just sort of talked and talked until my phone rang my phone lit up and it said Mario. I looked at Jennifer if is Gould answer it and she just nodded
"Hey Mario what do you want"
"You said....you wanted to meet mats come over and you'll meet him"
"I don't trust you...."
"Can Jennifer come"
i could hear him starting to get pissed off
"Wow so you trust a rumour making bitch instead of me I see"
"Whatever Mario.....we're coming i ended the phone call and I saw Jennifer with her jaw dropped "wait a second WE AS IN ME AND YOU GO IN HOUSE AND SEE Mario AND FRIEND NOOOOOO"
"come on Jennifer please....hey maybe mats is cute"
"Listen I'm not looking for a boyfriend I'm Trying to stop my friend from being killed"
"Whatever your coming"
"Uuughhhhh fiiinne"

/////////////////////////////

Jennifer and I got in the car and drove to Mario's house we saw that in the drive way there was a black Ferrari and Jennifer had her jaw dropped like before.
"Close your mouth" I snapped.
"Hey maybe mats is cute" she winked.
"Whatever let's go"
We hopped out of the car and knocked on the door Jennifer took won last long glance at the Ferrari. I don't know what's up with her and fancy cars but I really couldn't care less.
Mario opened the door and motioned us to come in when I saw the same boy who opened the door this morning.
He stood up and said "nice to see you again" he shook both Jennifer and my hand.
And all of us just sat down on the couch. Not on one couch of course mats sat on the big couch with Jennifer, mats on one end and Jennifer on the other while Mario and I sat on the single couch chairs not even looking at each other.

Jennifer's (P.O.V)
As I walked in I saw a tall handsome guy with beautiful brown hair and eyes he was so hot but he looks like a troublemaker. I know trouble when I see it that's why I don't usually get in to trouble. As he shook my hand I felt sparks coming from my hand all the way up my arm. I shyly said "hi nice to meet you" and he turned a smile. We all sat down quiet on the couches in the living room I made sure I was next to max....no massimo......uhhhh I forget but anyway. I started a conversation by saying "I'm sorry but this just looks like we're having a intervention" mats laughed.....yes that's his name and I catched a smile from Mario and grace when mats started to speak "she right....so grace you wanted to meet me....why?" She looked up at him and said "no reason you seem really nice and Mario talks about you alot.......good things not bad don't worry" she laughed. He looked at me and said "what about you" I looked in his gorgeous eyes and said oh "she forced me to come" mats laughed. "I'll order pizza if you guys want" we all agreed and Mario went into the kitchen probably to get the phone. Grace followed him too which left me and mats in the living room....all.....by.....ourselves.....together.
Nooooo. I wanted to start a conversation but I was to shy but thank god he did "so I know this is random but what's your favourite colour" I laughed and said "red what about you" "me too, what's your favourite movie"
"I don't have one"
"Me neither I was hoping you had one" he chuckled. He seemed so nice I might rethink the whole trouble thing he's just so adorable.
"Oh and by the way is that your car outside....the ferrari"
He chuckled "I didn't want to show off but my brother took my other car that I usually take out a lot"
"It's fine I'm not going to call you selfish....you don't even sound selfish you sound really nice" I blushed a little and he said "really never got that from anyone they would usually say show off! get a life jackass!"
"Don't listen to them then because they are just jealous"
We were quiet for a moment when we both started to lean in we were so close to touching lips when Mario and grace walked in and we both pulled away quickly without them seeing.
"We ordered the pizza going to come any minute"
We all just talked while we were waiting for the pizza.
Mats and I just kept looking at each other and smiling when Mario and grace looked away.
