alejandro's cousin- mattia polibio

chapter 25

*aliza's pov*
its been a week since i was in the hospital and i told mattia we needed a break. i haven't gotten out of bed and it's christmas break. he's messaged me a couple of times and i've answered once, i haven't been on any social media's and i only take showers at night. as i sit up somebody budges through the door and it's ale and kai. "what" i say, "we are taking you out" they smile, "guys i really don't feel like it-." ,, "don't care. we are sitting here until you get ready" ale says as they both sit on my bed, i hesitate but then get up. 
my shower is refreshing and i decided to shave.
after i get out the boys are sitting on their phones as i pick out a cute outfit, lately i've been wearing hoodies and shorts or sweats. after changing i do my makeup and as applying my lashes ale
speaks up, "you're pretty aliza" , "thank you" i smile,
i haven't heard that come from somebidy in a while.
after finishing, "where are we going" i ask, "we going out to eat" kai says, i put on my shoes and grab my
phone and purse then go out to the car.

we drive downtown and walk to a local coffee shop. a boy w light brown curly hair about 5"11 open the door for me, "hi" he smiles, "oh hi!" i say forcing a smile back, "you're beautiful" he says, "thank you so much", "what's your name? i ask, "oh my name alex, what about you" , "i'm aliza" i say as the boys smirk before going ahead of us, "could i get your snap" he says getting nervous, "oh uhm sure", i add myself through his phone, "thank you" he says before walking off. i don't think i could imagine myself w anybody else i love mattia ...

we get our drinks and sit at a small table, then my phone buzzes..
mattia : can we talk today?
me: ok
mattia: come by like 530
i look at the tine and it's 5, "can you guys drop me off at mattia's after this" i ask, "no way" kai says, "yeah" ale says.

they pull up to mattia's and i started fiddling w my thumbs, "thanks guys" i say before shutting the door,
i step up to mattia's door and knock before i could knock twice the door opens, "hi!!" gianluca says with a big smile, "hi" i say smiling, "i missed u but anyways mattia is in his room" i give him a quick hug before walking down to mattia's room.

his door was shut but before i knock i take my shoes off, "come in" mattia says, i open the door and observe a messy room and mattia w messy hair, shorts and soccer jersey on. i sit besides him on his bed, "im sorry aliza" he says, "i know", "sometimes i get angry w myself or things that are going on and take it out on others which i am working on. i should've been there with you that night and i'm sorry i made you like that. i love you aliza." he says as i look over at him and see tears, "baby." i pout, he seems surprised by me calling him that, "i love you and i couldn't imagine myself w anybody else. i forgive you" i say wiping the tears w my thumb off his face . he hugs me before kissing me.
