While we were walking to the fair thoughts were racing through my mind. I was obviously concerned since geo hadn't shown to take me but I still had hope he was going to be waiting for me at the front of the fair with a big smile. He had seemed like such a genuine guy and I believe there will be a perfectly logically explanation to why he didn't show.

It took a bit of time to walk to the fair, but we made it. The place looked amazing and I was so excited. I've never really been to one of these unless i was a child and couldn't remember.

Kairi turned to the group with wide eyes, "Alright guys lets get going. Smalls if you need anything at all come find us. Good luck with that thing."

I laughed at what he called Geo and walked off in search of my date.

The fair wasn't too big so I was guessing it wouldn't take long to find him. I wondered around like a lost puppy for about 2 minutes staring at lights beaming from the big rides above me. I then saw the back of his head. It may sound weird but somehow I knew it was him. I smiled and began to walk up to him. When I got into full sight of him I realized he wasn't alone. My heart dropped when I saw him practically eating another girls face. He knew I was there and stopped to look at me and laugh. He didn't say one word, he just went back to what he was doing. I was disgusted and felt disrespected. Tears began to form in my eyes. I may have not known him for too long but I still felt betrayed. Why did this happen? I didn't care anymore. I just wanted to go home.

I was walking, head down, tears rolling down my cheeks every now and then when I heard familiar voices. It was the boys.

They all came up asking basically one question. "What happened." I looked up feeling suddenly smaller. I couldn't quite choke out the words. Mattia appeared in that small crowd of boys and demanded to know what happened.

"So help me if he even laid a finger on you-" Mattia began.

I managed to say, "he didn't. that's the problem. He was k- kissing another girl."

With that Mattia was off. The boys tried to hold him back but he was unstoppable, like a machine that had no off-switch. I jogged after the guys just in time to see Mattia pull Geo off the girl and punch him in the face. It all happened to fast and I gasped in shock of what had just happened. Geo fell to the floor in pain and made small noises resembling an injured kitten.

"She didn't deserve that." I saw him practically spit in his face.

Mattia strutted off in search to find me.

He soon approached and asked in a genuine tone,"You okay?"

I was taken back by the kind gesture and nodded silently.

Alvaro looked concerned, "Guys we gotta go."

Everyone nodded in agreement and we headed out of the fair.

Mattias pov:

I knew that bitch would pull something off like that. I should have warned Natalia. She didn't deserve that. But Geo did deserve that punch. I don't know what came over me but he had it coming. It's been worrying me that I've grown so fond of Natalia. I might have feelings but I'm too stubborn to admit it. It's not something I have ever needed to worry about. But now I suddenly feel something with her. It's weird and kinda cheesy but I need to get it out. I'll tell her eventually or they'll probably just go away.

back to Natalias pov:

We all headed towards to center of the neighborhood to again say our daily goodbyes. We all did our normal fair well hugs until Mattia was at the end. He usually headed out after saying goodbye to everyone except me.

"I'm really sorry about what happened to you tonight" he spoke in a low calming voice.

"It's fine, he wasn't cute anyways" I giggled.

I looked up at him and we met each other's eyes when I spoke out once more, "Thank you."

I made a decision i wasn't sure he would return. I engulfed him in a small hug that only lasted about ten seconds. After two seconds he hugged back with the same energy. I was surprised to say the least. I never thought this day would come. I suddenly pulled away stunned when I heard the rest of the boys cheering and yelling things like "Finally" and "lets gooo." I smiled and turned to Mattia saying goodnight. He returned to comment and headed off.

I walked into the silent house coming to the conclusion that my parents are asleep. I slipped off my shoes and clothing throwing on my pajamas. I sat in bed staring at the ceiling taking in how much stuff just happened in the span of one night. I got basically cheated on by someone I wasn't even dating and then I got a hug/full conversation from someone who didn't seem to care about my existence.

Wow.
