Mute- New Jersey Boys

chapter 22

Lowkey... Forget Chapter 21 happened

3 person POV

Mattia shot up in his bed gasping for air.

"What a weird dream." He said out loud as he held his head. The boy got up and started getting ready for school.

"Morning Matti!" His mom greeted him with a warm smile.

"Morning ma." Mattia sat down with his family to have breakfast before leaving for school.

"Hey man!" Mattia and Kairi did a little handshake before walking to period 1 together.

"Did you hear about the new kid?" Kairi whispered.

"No, what about them?" Mattia asked. Only half-listening as he continued to copy notes off the board.

"- that's kinda weird right?" Mattia only caught the last bit of what Kairi was talking about but felt too bad to ask him to repeat what he said so, Mattia just nodded.

"Yep. That is weird." Kairi made a face then started to copy notes as well.

The whole day Mattia couldn't seem to shake that dream. It was always on the back of his mind. Bringing his mood down. He would be really happy talking to his friends then remember the dream and get sad. He didn't tell anyone about the dream because they would think he's crazy.

"Hey man, you seem off are you okay?" Alejandro asked.

"Um yeah... Just didn't sleep well last night."

"Bad dream?" Alejandro leaned against the locker beside Mattia.

"Yea... Something like that." Mattia shut his locker. "I'm going to the bathroom."

"Come on Mattia. Get it together!" Mattia said to himself as he splashed water on his face. "It was just a stupid dream. Forget about it."

Mattia stepped out of the bathroom and saw Kairi, Alvaro and Alejandro waiting for him.

"Oh hey. Where's Robbie?"

"He's already in the lunchroom," Alvaro said.

"Come on bitch! I'm hungry!" Kairi shouted as he began to drag Mattia to the lunchroom by his arm.

Mattia stared at a familiar group of boys as they passed by. Wondering where he saw them before. One was even taller than him! He had to be at least 6'3.

"You know them, Matti?" Alvaro asked.

"I don't think so." The group got to the lunchroom and Mattia felt his mood lighten. Like something good was gonna happen.

"Sup Robbie!" He shouted as the 4 boys sat down.

Mattia's POV

"Guys stop you're squishing her!" Robert shouted. I looked across the table to see a small girl getting squished in between Alejandro and Kairi.

"Who is she anyway?" I asked.

"Her name is Alex, Alex this is Mattia, Alvaro, Kairi and Alejandro." She nodded and waved.

"She doesn't like to talk, and she's new so be nice," Robert said.

"Why don't you talk?" I asked, in a way that could be taken as rude. What am I say?. It was very rude.

"Mattia, don't be rude," Robert said.

"What? It's just weird she doesn't talk." Alex took her phone out and began to type something. Once she was done she passed her phone to Robert.

"She said, it's none of your business why she doesn't talk, and if you guys are just going to be rude she can leave." I scoffed.

"Okay leave." She nodded and got up. She tried to take her phone back but Robert wouldn't give it to her.

Robert was saying something to her but I stopped listening. I thought about my dream again and came to a crazy realization...

This is exactly how my dream started...

So um yeah... Haha, tell me how you feel about this. And ik it's a short chapter, sorry. 👾
