 A/N: Warning!! Majoorrrrr soppy fluff head! I felt it was needed after having them all beaten by my douche bag Alan! So yeah...IT'S SO FLUFFY I'M GONNA DIEEEEEE :D :D Oh yeah, and vote/rate/comment etc much love xoxo

Jack had taken Kellin home after we got checked over, but Matt made me text my parents saying I'd be home later as I was going to do school work round a friends. He refused to let me be alone right now, my wrist was fractured, not badly, but enough to be stuck in a cast for at least three weeks. Kellin was luckier, his was just sprained, so left with a support and crutches for the next week or so. I guess I should be thankful my wrist wasn't completely broken, but right now I felt far from thankful. It was my left wrist, the hand I used to play the notes and chords, there was no way I could do that with a cast on my wrist. Jack and Matt had managed to sweet talk the doctor into not calling our parents, they should have, given we're both only fifteen. In all honesty, I think the doctor saw right through the 'we fell over' lie and knew what really happened so decided to let it slide this time. I figured I'd tell the same story to my parents, I couldn't exactly hide the cast. I mean, technically I did fall, so they should buy it, I hoped anyway.
"Ok, mum wants me home by eight." I sighed throwing my phone on Matt's bedside table.
"Then I shall have you home by half seven." He smiled, pressing his lips on my cheek.
"Matt..."
"And before you ask how I intend on keeping my promise...my parents are away on business this week. So when I drop you off tonight, I'm going to wait for you to give me a signal and climb up the tree and into your window. From then, I will stay with you all night, I will wake in the morning and leave before picking you up for school. After that, I will drive you to and from school every day, and simply sneak in and out of your window as needed."
I couldn't help but feel a little...babysat. "Matt, I don't need babysitting."
"I'm not, I am looking after my boyfriend who needs me right now." He brushed my fringe away from my eye and gave me a small, sweet smile. "I know how much playing your guitar means to you and I know what it does for you. And if I'm the only other thing that can stop you from hurting yourself then I'm going to be here, even when you don't need me, I'm going to be here. Why? Because I love you, and I'm going to be here, no matter what, in the good, the bad and the down right ugly, I. Will. Be. Here."
"W-when I saw Alan...it was like my world came crashing down...seeing him...k-kick you and h-hit you. I-I always accepted the beatings before...but seeing you...I-I tried to stop him..." I sighed, I hated myself for being too weak to stop him.
"And you have no idea how much I love you for that, but do you now understand how seeing him hurt you makes me feel? Because that's how I feel, my heart shattering, the desperate need to protect you, even if it means me getting hurt."
He was right, that was exactly how I'd felt, I guess I couldn't be mad at him about doing the exact thing I did...just better then I did. That was it, Matt was better then me...at everything. And one day he'll realize just how worthless you are and leave.
"Don't leave me." I whispered into his shoulder, letting a tear fall silently.
"Now why would I do a thing like that?" He kissed my shoulder and wrapped his arms around me.
"B-because you-you're better then m-me and y-you deserve better." I sobbed.
"Noooo..." He pulled away slightly and lifted my face up to meet his. "Alex, I love you. I'm not better then you and you are the best god damn thing on this earth to me so don't think like that, please."
"Wh-what do you even see in me?" I spoke, barely above a whisper.
"You want to know what I see? When I look at you, on the outside, I see this amazing, handsome, breathtakingly beautiful man, with these stunning deep brown eyes that I could, and do get lost in. With soft pink, irresistible, kissable lips I could kiss all day and never get bored off. And with them lips, and those hella cheekbones you got, comes the most amazing smile I've ever seen, a smile I want to see every damn day because you deserve to smile. It's a smile that can light up the darkest of days, a smile that makes me melt inside, and when you laugh...it's like music and it's beautiful. Andddd if we're being strictly honest, past the face...you got one hell of a body going on under there and my GOD you're ass! Especially when you're in your skinny jeans, damn it looks good! Spankable I think is the word I'll use...oh and very grabable too..."
I let out a small chuckle. "Grabable? Is that even a word?"
"It is now!" He nodded in a matter-of-fact way. "Anyway, I think I've covered the surface...hmmm...yup so now, inside. Inside I see this amazing, smart, bright young man, who doubts himself way, way to much. I see this strong person who doesn't even realize just how strong he is, I see someone who's been put through hell but battles on, no matter how many marks and scars it's going to leave him. I see someone who's not going to give up, no matter what his reason's are for not giving up, he won't. When you're comfortable, and relaxed, I see this witty, funny guy who will just laugh away, even if it's at the expense of my snorting. I see...just the epitome of perfection, and a man who I have fallen in love with, in every which way possible, and nothing is ever going to make me give him up. I'd take a bullet for you Lex, if that meant saving your life, because, you deserve to live and you deserve to be happy. You doubt yourself, way too much, and I get it, I do, I feel like that sometimes, but you. Are. Amazing. And you're perfect to me, in every way possible, scars and all. I just plain love you."
