Kill or Keep

Chapter 19- If You Don't Stop, I Won't Be Able To Control What Happens Next

Beatrice's POV:

I woke up to find myself on my couch. I don't remember how I got there. I checked my phone to see it was almost noon. I unlocked my phone to see I got a text message from Matt. "What does he want?" I thought to myself as I clicked on the message.

(Author's note: M-Matt, B-Beatrice)

M- Hey Bea

B- Hey

M- Would you like to come over to my house to hang out?

B-Yeah

M- Great! I'll come get you around 12.

B-Ok. I'll see you when you get here.

M- Ok. See ya!

I look over at the time to see it's 11:50. I get up to change my outfit. I decided to wear a Misfits tank top with a black jacket, leggings and black converse. Once I got done getting ready, I heard a knock at the front door. I grab my keys and walk out of my room to go let Matt in. I opened the door to see Matt waiting for me. "Hey Bea, you ready to go?" Matt asks while staring at me. "Yeah let's go." I say as I lock the front door and start walking with Matt to his house. As we're walking, we started about anything we could talk about. It felt nice like when we were friends when we were children. Well, I guess we're friends now. I've got to say, it feels nice to have my friend back.

When we got to Matt's house he opened the door and motioned me to go inside. I walked into his house with Matt following behind me. I walked into his living room to see Mrs. Busek walking out of the kitchen. When she saw me, her eyes lit up. "Hi Beatrice, how are you?" Mrs. Busek asked me. "I'm good. How are you?" I asked her. "I've been good. Are you hanging out with Matt?" "Yes. Matt invited me to hang out with him." Right on cue, Matt walks into the living room. Mrs. Busek looks at Matt and then back at me. She says, "Well I've got to run some errands. You guys have fun." She grabs her purse and walks out of the house to go run her errands. There was a moment of silence, until Matt asked, "So, what do you want to do?" I thought about it, but I couldn't think of anything. I guess Matt realised I couldn't think of anything, so he asks, "Do you want to watch a movie?" I replied, "Yeah we could do that." Matt then thought and asked, "Would a horror movie be ok?" "Yeah that's fine with me." I replied while smiling. Matt saw this and smiled. He went over to the movie library to find a horror movie. As he was looking, without looking at me, he then said, "You can go sit on the couch and wait while I look." I sat on the couch and waited for Matt to pick a movie. Matt finally found a movie and put in the DVD player after he turned on the TV. Matt walked over to me and sat next to me. I looked over to Matt and when he looked at me, I gave him a small smile. He smiled back at me and we went back to looking at the TV when we heard the movie starting.

A couple of hours later, we were watching another horror movie. Matt's mother still hasn't returned but she texted Matt that she's visiting some friends. I think she deserves it because she's a hardworking woman and some time with her friends will do her good. Anyways, as we were in the middle of the movie, I could see Matt looking at me in the corner of my eye. He then thought of something because I could see that mischievous grin of his. "What is he up to now?" I think to myself but I didn't have to wait long to figure out what he was up to. I feel his arms wrap around my waist. I squeal as he pulls me into his lap. I look up at him and see him looking at me emotionless. I feel my face heat up so I quickly look at the TV to try to hide my blushing face. I hear Matt chuckle and look back at the TV to continue to watch the movie. Matt then moved his head by the crook of my neck and said, "I love you, Bea. I always have." I looked up to face him. I looked into his eyes and said, "I love you too Matt." He then smiles and asks me, "I know I haven't been the nicest person to you, but I don't want to lose you. You're too important to me. I can't get you out of my mind. Whenever I see you, my heart beats faster. I guess what I'm trying to ask is, would you be mine?" I thought for a minute. Yes, he hasn't been the nicest person to me, but I forgive him for everything that he has done to me over the years. And when he apologized to me, saying he regrets everything he has done to me, made me realize that I got the old Matt back. The one I love. I smile at Matt and reply, "Yes, I'll be yours." Matt then smiles and kisses me on the lips. I kiss him back and I could feel him smirking against the kiss. Matt then pulls away to put his forehead on mine, that smile never leaving his lips. I started to smile as I kiss his forehead. We both looked back to the TV and continued to watch the movie.

An hour goes by and I look up to see Matt sleeping. I try to take this chance to get out of his grip and off of his lap. Key word: tried. If I tried to move, Matt would groan and his grip on me would get tighter. I tried to get out of his grip again. Instead of his grip on me getting tighter, he just layed down, with me, laying on my back, under him and him laying on top me, him facing me. He hid his face in the crook of my neck, trying to go back to sleep. I kept trying to get out of his grip. I started to push him away so I could create some room between me and him. Matt groaned as his hands grabbed my wrists and put my wrists above my head. He then moved his head by my ear and whispered, "If you don't stop, I won't be able to control what happens next." I instantly turn red as a tomato and quickly hid my face into his chest, attempting to hide my burning red face from him. Matt then chuckles as he kisses on top of my head and goes back to sleep, leaving me a burning mess. As I calmed down, I started to get tired. I close my eyes, letting sleep consume me as I fall asleep in Matt's arms.
