1 week later

Since me and matt live in the same state we have to take the same flight.
We are going home for a week then leaving the next.
I woke up to my alarm telling me that I have to get ready for my flight back home.
I get up and see that nash and cam were both still asleep.
I go to the bathroom and turn on the water. I do my usual routine and get out.
I put on underwear, PINK joggers, sports bra, and then just the matching sweatshirt to my joggers.
I brush out my hair and leave it down. The time says 6:38 am we leave at 7:00am . But cam and nashs flight leaves at 9:00 am so I will leave them asleep. I pack up all of my things. I put on some socks then Nike tennis shoes.
I go out to the terrace. The sun is rising. I take a quick picture.
I look at the time and it says 6:58am
I kiss cam and nashs cheek and get my luggage and finally head down to the lobby.
Once I get down there I see matt. He sees me and smiles a bit but not his usual smile. I think he is still sad about what happened.
We head out and get a cab. We sit in the back together. It's awkward. Really awkward.
The drive is 30 minutes away. And I have to sit by him on the plane. This is going to be the most awkward day ever. I lay my head on his lap. He plays with my hair. I start to drift off.
"Cara...Cara......c'mon Cara were at the airport." I get off of matts lap and get out of the cab. I get my luggage. We thanks the driver and go inside the airport.
There were a lot of fans in the airport waiting for all of MAGCON. I feel Matt take my hand. I smile. I actually missed his touch. But I can't he's not what I thought he was. We stop at a couple fans to take pictures and such.
We get to our flight and sit in our seats.
I look at matt and I's hands they are still interwind. I get out of his grip. I get out my laptop. I turn on my Mac and see the background it was the day I did a shoot with Matt. I got teary eyed of how much I missed it. Matt looked at me, then at my laptop. "I missed that too, that was a good day." He says then he gets teary eyed.
"That was the best day of my life.. Just wished it could've lasted..."
He sighs
He puts his hand on my thigh and rubs it softly.
"I told my mom to sign me up for counseling, I don't know what happened Cara... I have never done anything like that... I might have anger issues or something ... But just know I'm changing for you... And whatever nash told you or heard... That I don't use girls." He says sniffling, he cries in my shoulder.
I set him up and hug him tight.
I start crying in his chest. I want us. I miss him. But I can't me that easy.
We let go. I look in his eyes they are red and puffy.
"I'm going to take a nap." I say not wanting to talk about this anymore.
I put my laptop up and put my headphones in. I lay my head on the window.

****** I wake up and everyone is boarding. I see matt still asleep. I shake him a bit. "Maaaaaaaatt." I say
He groans and opens his eyes. "Let's go."
"Okay" he says
We exit the plane and I see my mom at the door way. I turn to matt and he is already facing me. I pull him into a hug. "Bye matt.. I'll miss you." I say getting teary eyed. It's true I don't want it miss him but I know I will.
"Cara... " "yeah"
"I love you... Im going to counseling and I'm gonna change.. For you." He says
"I love you Matt" I say and pull him in a hug.
We pull away. "My mom is here." I say
"I'll miss you Cara." He says.
"Bye matt."
I say and walk away.
I get to my mom and pull her into a hug.
"Did you have fun?" She asks
"Yeah.. I did it was... Different... I made more friends too." I say
"I'm glad honey."
I got home and saw my dad and brother watching football on the TV.
"CARAS HOME!" My brother Braxton says.
I run over to them and squeez them into a hug.
*** 2 hours later
"Well I'm gonna go to bed." I say
"Okay I love you honey." My dad says
"Love you guys."I say walking up the stairs.
I get to my bedroom and immediately fall on my bed into a deep sleep.
**** 3 days later
My parents are at work. My brother went out with his friends.
I decided to call matt.
"Hello?"Matt says
"Hey Matt." I say
"Cara.. "
"Yeah"I say
"Oh nothing I just didn't think you'd call."
"Well I'm just bored and decided to call you and see what you've been up to."
"Oh nothing really.. I went to the counseling thing though." He says
"How'd it go?" I ask
"Well they said I get a bad temper so they gave me medicine for that, so I'm all good now." He says
"Good for you Matt... So what're you up to?" I ask
"Well I'm home alone my parent are at work and my brother is at his girlfriends" he says
"Yeah I'm alone too" I say
"Where do you live?" He asks
"-------- where do you live?"
"I live like 30 minutes away from you actually ."he says
"Really?!" I say excitedly
"Yep." He says
"You wanna come over or something?" I ask
"Really?!?" He says
"Sure why not were both bored."
"Okay be there in like an hour" and we both hung up.
I looked down and saw that I looked like I haven't got out of bed for days.
I took a shower. Put on some miss me shorts and a teal lace tank top.
I plan brushed my hair and left it down.
I went to my bedroom and cleaned up. I put on music and connected to Bluetooth
I texted him my address and went downstairs. I cleaned up and then put a pizza in the oven.
I heard the door bell and ran to the door and opened it.
"MATT!" I yell and jump in his arms
