Chapter 37

~ Matt

What Bart? I'm kind of in the middle of something right now.

I regret to inform you that...Nash, Cameron, and Carter have left MagCon.

They what? Why?

Well, umm. I'm making some changes to the tour.

What do you mean by changes.

First off, I'm going to make prices much higher.

Why? They're high enough already. In fact, to get a better turn-out, I think we need to lower prices.

And I don't want you guys kissing the fans.

Why not? These girls must have waited forever to meet us, and we can't even kiss them on the cheek?

Nope. Lastly, I'm going to enhance security. You remember what happened last year.

I hate the security! All they do is yell at the girls and push them away!

Well, you aren't the one in charge, now are you?

Screw you Bart. I'm leaving too.

But I-

*click*

I took a deep breath and tried to calm my nerves.

"Hey!"

"Hi Matt. Who was that on the phone?"

"Oh...pfft...no one."

"Tell meeeeee."

He hesitated for a moment.

"It was Bart, trying to arrange another tour. I said no because I want to spend the summer with you," he said, wrapping his arms around my waist.

"But you have so much fun on those tours! I don't want you to give it up because of me."

"No...it's not like that..."

"Then wha-"

"I'll tell you later, okay?"

I sighed and nodded. We both kicked our shoes off and walked across the shoreline. Matt lifted me up bridal style as we were walking. I breathed in the misty summer air. It was slightly breezy and cool. The waves washed against the shore almost silently, with the sun barely touching the horizon in the distance.

"You're so beautiful," Matt said, out of nowhere.

I could literally feel myself blushing.I smiled at him and looked into his deep hazel eyes. I barely pecked his lips and left his arms. My fingers ran over his and grasped around his hand.

"Can you sing for me?" he asked.

"Really? Now?"

"Yea, your voice calms me down."

"You seem pretty calm right now."

He sighed and looked down at the ground as we continued walking along the warm sand.

"I don't know. I've just been kind of stressed lately."

"I understand."

"Can you sing Riptide pweeze? I love that song."

"Okay, for you."

I started, but was interrupted. Being the dumbass I am, I choked.

"Are you okay?"

I took a deep breathe and straightened myself.

"I'm fine," I said, holding back.

Matt looked like he doubted me, but he shook it off.

"Do you wanna head back to the house?" he offered.

I nodded my head and leaned in for a hug.

"I love you baby."

"I love you too."
