y/n's pov

i don't know long mattia and i have been in this bathroom but it was nice just laying here with him by ourselves. 

"you wanna ditch school for the rest of the day?" mattia asks. "go over to my place and then we can watch a movie or something?" 

"i don't wanna get you in trouble," i answer. "plus won't your parents wonder why you're home?"

"they're at work and i don't mind missing school, not like i wanna be here in the first place so i mean..."

"mmm okay then," i smile. mattia gets up first and extends his hand out so that he can pull me up. we walk out of the stall and i go to the sink to wash my face. "holy shit my eyes look so puffy." 

"you can take a nap at my house to rest your eyes." 

"yeah okay," i wipe my face with a paper towel. "i'll meet you at your house cause i drove my car today." the halls were empty cause people were still in class, giving us a clear coast. 

"shouldn't you two be in class," a voice said from behind us. 

"roger," i smile. "hi." 

"hey mr. allens," mattia waves. "good news, we made up." 

"that's great but why are you guys heading towards the exit?" he crosses his arms. roger looks at me for a long time. "are you okay? your eyes seem a little bit swollen." 

"i'm fine," i nod. 

"did something happen? have you been crying or something?" roger walks closer to get a good look at my face. "what's wrong?" 

"it's just a long story and school isn't exactly the best place for me to be at right now," i explain. "i just needed a break." 

"we were gonna go back to my house and relax for a bit," mattia added. 

roger lets a sigh. "i've never seen you cry before so it must be bad. i'm going to turn around for 30 seconds and look the other way. you better be completely out the door by then." 

i throw myself forward to give him a big hug. "thank you." 

"yeah thank you," mattia smiles. we jog out the door and head to our car. 

-

mattia and i arrived to his house around the same time and we went downstairs to his basement-bedroom. i immediately crawled into his bed and close my eyes. 

he lays down right next to me. "do you wanna take a nap first or watch netflix?" 

"nap," i answer. "will you talk to me until i fall asleep?" 

"sit up for a second," he says. his arms wrapped around my back and i lay my head down on his chest. "tell me what you're feeling right now."

"tired, mad, sad," i say robotically. "i just never thought he'd do that to me. that's what hurt me the most. it be the people you least expect." 

"i'll never hurt you like that. i know i've hurt you before but i never want that to happen again." he hugs me tighter. "if i haven't made it clear enough, i care about you." 

"i care about you too," i smile. "thank you for being there for me." 

"this might not be the best time to bring it up but i meant what i said. it wasn't just sex to me." 

"it wasn't just sex to me either, but everything's too complicated right now for us to try anything. you have jenna to deal with and i have..."

"you're not gonna keep talking to dylan are you?" he raises his voice. "you're gonna stay away from him right?" 

"i'm not gonna get with dylan anymore but i can't ignore him forever. he's gonna try and talk to me and i need to let him know what he did was wrong," i say. "eventually." my eyes were getting heavy cause being in this position with mattia was so comfortable and relaxing.

"you getting sleepier?" he asks as he stroke my hair with his fingers. 

"mhm," i hum. 

he properly wraps the blanket around us. "go to sleep then."
