i walk in and slam the door. i throw my keys on the kitchen counter and let out a sigh.
"he's sleeping" Mattia says from the couch.
i jump and turn around while putting my hand on my chest.
"what the hell, you scared me" i say still standing in the kitchen.
"sorry, so what happen?" he asked
i shrug my shoulders, get a water bottle from the fridge then walk to the couch and sit next to Mattia.
i cross my legs and open my water bottle.
"he kissed me, kiss kissed me and proceeded to tell me he can't trust me or be with me" i say with a smile.
"wow, that sucks" he says.
"that's all you have to say"
"yup" he says grabbing my water bottle and taking a sip.
"man"
i snatch it from him and it gets all over me. i let out a "fuck" while Mattia laughs at me. i decide to take the sweater off and the shorts.
"okay don't get naked Al" Mattia said looking away and putting his hands up.
"chile, nothing you haven't seen before" i grab the clothed and walk them over to the washer.
i put that clothes and some other clothes to wash and then just sit on the laundry room floor wearing nothing but a tank top and some black undies.
"you'll be okay" Mattia comes into the laundry room and sits across from me.
"maybe"

i hated seeing her upset so i had to make her laugh, somehow.
"remember your 17th birthday?" i ask and a small smile comes across her face along with the shaking of her head.
"jeez. don't remind me Tia" she said putting her head in her hands.
"the memory of that night makes me happy that we didn't have a girl" she said laughing.
"we?" i ask smiling
"yeah" she sighs, "i was angry that night and wanted to hurt you and make you think Mar was more of a father than you were"
he was though, i was never here for him. which was partly her fault.
i just stay silent and just fidget with my hands.
i look up at Allie who is still upset about the whole Mar thing.
"come here" i said tapping the spot next to me.
she crawls over and lays her head on my lap. i wrap one arm around her and play with her hair with the other.
"you don't need him Al" i say.
"i know, just Matteo" she says.
"and you" she looks up at me.
"yah?" i say smiling.
"i can't do it alone Tia, i really can't" she turns her head back forward.
"well, i'm here" i get low and kiss her cheek.
"thank you" she said.
we sat here all night in silence. not an awkward silence. it was a nice silent and we ended up falling asleep in the laundry room.
