My Life as Nashlyn Grier || Completed

Chapter 10

Nashlyn's POV~

We skateboarded the rest of the day. When I got tired, I sat down and watched how Matt skateboarded.
I got a text from Andrew and I ignored it. Matt saw me on came walking to me.
"Aren't you going to get that?" Matt asked.
"Huh?" I asked
He pointed to my phone.
"Oh," I said. "Nah, I'll answer it later."
Matt looks at me concerned and sat down next to me.
"You know you don't have to ignore him just because you're with me." He says.
"I know," I say. "I'm not."
Matt raises an eyebrow and looks at me.
"Listen," I say. "I just want to be with you. You are the best person I've ever known so I want to be with you and enjoy the moments I have with you."
Matt smiles and hugs me.
"You're the best person I've ever know, too." He says.
Awkward silence.
"So how's your dad doing about this whole Andrew thing?" Matt asks.
"He's not very excited about it." I laugh. "He wanted to end up with Scott Dallas."
"The son of Cameron Dallas?" Matt asks surprised.
"Yup." I nod.
"Wow."
We both stare at Victoria Caniff and Andrew kissing.
Hold up! Andrew?
"Is that, Andrew?" I ask.
Matt looks at where I'm looking and puts a surprised face (😳).
I get up and walk to house in front.
"Andrew Jeremiah Melvin." I say
Andrew looks at me and stands up.
"Babe, it's not what it looks like." He says grabbing my hand.
I jerk free my hand.
"No?" I shout. "Then what is it?"
Victoria jumps in.
"Is there something wrong with me kissing my boyfriend?" She asks.
"What?" I say. "He's not your boyfriend he's my boyfri...."
I stop before I finish the sentence.
"How long have you guys been dating." I ask.
"We are not-" says Andrew, but I interrupt him.
"You don't say anything." I say. "Victoria, answer."
"We've been dating for 3 months now."
"What?" I say.
"You were cheating on her with me?" I ask Andrew.
He doesn't say anything.
"You know what?!" I say. "Forget about anything about us. And here." I get the ring the he gave me and toss it at him.
"Here's your stupid ring back."
I start to cry and go to Matt who is in the middle of the road waiting for me.
"Common." He says hugging me and taking me to my house.
Dad is not here so he Matt takes me to my room.
He sits me on my bed but doesn't let go of me. He is still hugging me.
"Thanks Matt," I say.
"For what?" He asks.
"For being here when I need you." I smile.
Matt smiles.
"I'm always here for you." He says.
I look up and smile.
"Always." He whispers in my ear.
I stare at him.
He get closer and closer until our lips touch.
I was looking for the wrong man all this time when the perfect boy was living in the house next to mine.
