Wrong Number

Chapter 24// Scaring The Shit Out Of Me

Matthew is bold. Chloe is normal. The others are italics.

I toss and turn. I can't sleep. Emma and Matthew left a long time ago and Melissa is already sleeping. Probably because it's kinda late. But all I can think about is Isiah and Matthew. I feel so bad. Like I didn't want to hurt him but I think I already did. I mean he's a good guy and he treats girls right but I just can't help but not have feelings for him.

Then there's Matthew. I just can't help my feelings for him. I've known him for almost a year and I get this feeling when he's talking to girls. It's weird. But I mean even though he can be annoying at times I can't help but like his annoyingness. What's worse is he saw this girl at the mall and I saw how happy he got and again I had that feeling. What's even worse than that is she has his number and they have been texting ever since she left.

I just can't help but feel mad at her. It's like when I wasn't dating anyone Matthew would meet a girl and they would pull it off than when they break up I end up with someone while he single. Even though this only happened one time but still I feel like this will keep happening.

I'm just also scared. I'm scared that when Matthew actually finds the right girl he's going to forget about me. He won't have time with me and he will never talk to me again. Won't even call me the nickname he gave me when we first met. No more hearing his voice, his laughter, seeing his smile, him being annoying, and flirting. Basically everything. I kinda hope that's not the case. But don't get me wrong I want him to be happy and all.

My thoughts get interrupted by my ringing phone. I grab it and I answer it without looking at who it is. "Hello?"

"Hey Sexy Cinnamin." Oh god, it's been a while since he's called me that but I couldn't help but smile.

"Hey, Matthew."

"Are you okay?"

"Yeahh. Why wouldn't I be?"

"I don't know. Your voice makes it sound like something is wrong."

"Oh. Umm no I'm totally fine. Nothing wrong at all. Anyway, what are you doing up so late?"

"I'm not tired. So I decided to check up on you. To see if you are okay. I wasn't sure if you were sleeping or not so I apologize if I woke you up."

"No, I wasn't sleeping."

"Oh. Then what were you doing?"

"Nothing important I was just thinking."

"Oh. Sorry if I interrupted your thoughts."

"It's okay. It was best if I stopped thinking about what I was thinking anyway. So how do you like this city so far?"

"I like it. This hotel is amazing and I got to see you face to face for the first time. The mall was really fun."

"Yeah, it sure was."

"And Vivian. She's so pretty and funny. She's also really nice and gets along with Emma."

"Yeah very pretty."

"Hey, can I ask you a question?"

"Sure."

"What do you think?"

"About what?"

"Vivian. Like what do you think about her?"

"Why do you ask?"

"Because I want you to like her and I want you to approve of people I might date."

"Oh, so you thinking about asking her out?"
