Forever {M.E.}

Chapter 19

Matt's POV-

"He what?" I ask again, more mad. I get up from Abigail's bed and walk over to her window.

"He kissed me and told me he's been in love with me." She spoke softly. She sat up in bed and looked at me, waiting for me to say something.

"When did this happen?" I run my hands through my hair, pulling at it. "Like two nights ago." She looks like she could cry at any moment. I decide to put the jealousy thing aside for a minute and sit in bed with her pulling her close to my body, she buries her head in my neck. I hear her crying softly, so I start hugging her even more tightly.

"I'm so sorry Matt, I should've never went into Aaron's room. If I hadn't gone into his room none of this would've have happened. I feel terrible." She sobs.

"It's not your fault. You didn't know Aaron loved you, let alone was going to kiss you. As long as you didn't enjoy the kiss then everything is fine." I kiss her head and hear her stop crying. She slowly starts getting up and away from me. "Abigail?" She looks at me and guilt is written everywhere. "Did you enjoy the kiss?" She doesn't answer me. "Abigail, did you enjoy the kiss?" She looks at me and whispers, "after he kissed me and I had talked to Shawn, I came in here and laid down, there were a lot of thoughts running through my mind and before I fell asleep the last thing I remembered was, that part of me had liked it." I look at her for about a minute before I get up and walk out the room.

Anger takes over me and the only thing I want to do is scream and beat the hell out of Aaron. Aaron. I go into the living room and only find Shawn in there watching tv. "Where's Aaron?" He looks up and sees me angry and gets worried. "He left, just think about what your going to get yourself into, Matt." I scoff at him and start walking up and down their living room.

"He knew Abigail was going to tell me, so he left. Dammit!" I kicked their biggest couch and hurt my big toe, "damn that hurt, fuck." I sit down in the couch and rub it quickly then get back up. "Dude you're going to hurt yourself." Shawn gets up, and tries to sit me back down. I shake him off of me and he stumbles a little bit.

"Matt? What are you doing?" I hear Abigail's sweet soft voice.

"Matt, think first about what you are about to do, it could hurt your relationship with you and Abigail." Shawn whispers into my ear and I look across the room to find Abigail's eyes looking up at me. So full of hurt and disappointment.

Without even thinking, I look down to Shawn, and say loud enough for the both of them to hear, "what relationship?"

I walk to their door and slam the door behind me, grabbing my keys out of my pocket and getting inside my car. Once I'm inside, I turn the car on and the first song that comes up is Chasing Cars. I sob silently to myself thinking about what I just did. I pushed away the one thing that I cared about the most. I get out of their driveway and start my drive back home.

Throughout the entire way, all I can think about is Abigail and how I just lost her. And it was all my fault.

Abigail's POV

"What relationship?" Is the last thing Matt says before he exits my home and leaves me alone. He dumped me. He actually dumped me. And it was all my fault. I sit down in the couch and replay everything that just happened. I don't cry right away, which is weird. Shawn covers the both of us up with a blanket and rubs my back.

"I wish I could tell you that everything will be okay, but I'm not about to lie to your face, but maybe there's a reason-" I look up at Shawn.

"Want to know why? Because I was stupid enough to say that I actually liked the kiss between Aaron and I. That's why he broke up with me just now. That's why he isn't here." I basically yell at Shawn, but towards the end I loose all my strength and just break down. I just lost my best friend, my boyfriend, and there's nothing I can do to bring him back.

"I'm going to go and finish packing, okay? Call me if you need anything." Shawn leaves after placing a gentle kiss on my forehead. I should pack too. I can't just sit here and do nothing. Even though I practically do that already everyday, with snack breaks every now and then.

I lazily get up and walk to my room and continue packing. I get a message and quickly run over to see if it's from Matt.

It's not. It's from Aaron.

Aaron: hey are u okay?

Me: yeah, why?

Aaron: you don't have to lie to me
Aaron: I saw matt and he seemed pretty upset
Aaron: not to mention the fact that I think I saw him crying

Me: where'd you see matt?

Aaron: in the driveway, when he got in his car

Me: did you see which way he went?

Aaron: he took a right but I don't know where he went

Me: oh.

Aaron: Abigail, hear me out, I'm so sorry that all of this happened. I didn't mean for all of this to happen
Aaron: then again I didn't think you would tell him I kissed you

Me: he is my boyfriend, of course I was going to tell him, even if I did like it

Well, he was.

Aaron: okay, but still, especially if you liked it
Aaron: wait what? you liked it???

Me: oh, uh, it wasn't bad

Aaron: so yes?

Me: yes but what does this have anything to do with it, this is the reason why matt broke up with me in the first place
Me: I have go to

Aaron: okay, I'll text you later?

I read the message and toss my phone on the bed, mad at myself.

*3 and a half hours later*

I'm finished packing, with the help of Shawn. I break down at least three times during the process, whether I came across something that was Matt's or just something that reminded me of him. I call my dad and tell him that we're ready for him. He sounds surprised and says he'll be ready for us by tomorrow. He sends me the flight information and let Shawn know and he sighs knowing that there's nothing he can do now, to change what I've just done.

I wish Matt were here, holding me close in his arms. Telling me that we'll make it work one way or another, no matter the distance. I'm left with only my thoughts of him, the memories of one late night that he was especially close with me, something was wrong but I didn't have the nerve to ask or say anything. The moment was perfect and now I'm thankful that I didn't do anything to mess it up.

I fall asleep with the thought of Matt holding me, slowing letting me go from his grip as I fell into a deep slumber...
