Chapter eleven
I gasp for air. My eyes are still wet with tears from my dream.373Please respect copyright.PENANAjyZDJq0iBs
Wonder what that was all about. I’m really hot and I can barely move my body. I think for a second and then I remember. 373Please respect copyright.PENANANwdlKFHA84
I went to bed with Matt. He was describing what he would do if he had me when I fell asleep. Every single inch of you. 373Please respect copyright.PENANASaJ2Lq1ppx
He’s currently holding every single inch of me, in captivity. His arms are wrapped tightly around me. Like his body is swallowing mine. 373Please respect copyright.PENANAqaY6t0TBOh
The fuck? I mean yeah, its cute and sweet and adorable but shit, we just met. 373Please respect copyright.PENANA8Jx74oYNSc
Why do I have to keep reminding everyone, including myself? The door opens. Skylar walks in rubbing her eyes. She looks…..tired? Her eyes are smudged with eye shadow and eyeliner and her hair is tangled. She’s still easily pretty just a little frazzled-looking. She turns and looks in my bed direction and beams. She catches me looking at her.
"Heyyy." She whispers. Matt groans against my back. She looks at me questioningly. I shake my head slowly. She raises her eyebrow at me.
"No, we did not," I say loudly.
"Yeah cause your ass fell asleep. We were getting there," Matt says in a gravelly voice.
"Ok, you are suffocating me." He still hasn’t unwrapped his arms from around me. His heavy ass.
"I don’t know. You kinda seem like the type of girl that likes to get choked. Asking me all that shit last night. Trying to tempt me. You were just asking to get fucked, huh?” he says in my ear so only I can hear. Low-key though, I kinda was. but only a little bit. What? 373Please respect copyright.PENANA64Y42m4bVX
I was curious.
"I know you're wet right now. Don’t play with me,” he whispers in my ear in that scrumptious morning voice. I can hear Skylar giggling in the background. He kisses behind my ear and quickly gets up.
"Alright, Sky. I gotta split." He says and puts his white shirt on quickly.
"Thanks for letting me use your car.” She says, her voice laced with laughter. They look like they're having a whole conversation with their eyes. They know something that I don’t. Skylar hands Matt the keys, her face turning serious. She eyes him and all he says is "I’ll text you." 373Please respect copyright.PENANAu6Csg6YPbn
He turns to me and gives me a solemn farewell. What happened to the affectionate man that I got a glimpse of? He turns and walks out the door. Skylar is at the vanity taking her makeup off.
"Sooo…" Skylar starts.
"We honestly didn’t do anything. We aren’t friends, He isn’t taking me out, I’m not even sure we’re even going to see each other again."
”Well that’s too bad cause’ JON ASKED ME OUT!!!” She screams, jumping up and down. I stand up and hug her.
"Oh my god! Congratulations!" I say and her face turns serious.
"So that means that you’ll probably be seeing a lot more of him," she says, voice lowering. I know immediately who she means by ‘him’.373Please respect copyright.PENANAuIRxxKFTPe
"But hey, look at the bright side: I think he definitely has a thing for you,"
"No not this soon," I say flatly. I turn around and find my box with all my formal wear.
"Novah, he obviously likes you. I mean, yeah you guys just met but its not always about stuff like that. Sometimes, you just get vibes from somebody."373Please respect copyright.PENANAsrp1WNj3VC
That basically sums up what happened but it doesn’t make sense. How can you just ‘get vibes’ from someone? It doesn’t make sense so, therefore, no. I’m not buying that shit for a second.
"I’ve known Matt for a year and I’ve never seen him actually stay the night in the same bed with a girl. Not to mention you guys just cuddled and slept. No sex! That’s pretty much unheard of for Matt. We all know Matt doesn’t cuddle."373Please respect copyright.PENANAShBwWUL09Q
She stares me down for a second trying to convince me that I should give it a shot.
"You sure?"
"Yes I’m sure." she comes over and takes both my hands into hers. "I’m serious. I would never want a guy to be with you if I didn’t think he at least liked you. Just try it out and I swear if he fucks up I’ll literally kill him. I swear." she raises her right hand as if she’s actually swearing.
"Okay,” I say and she squeals
”But I really hope you didn’t exaggerate about that other stuff.” her face goes serious
”I swear. I’m so fucking serious. Matt… he hates relationships. Doesn’t date or anything. Ask Jon. That’s pretty much the only person Matt trusts. What?! Matt doesn’t date. That’s an absolute deal-breaker for me. I do not do commitment issues! That’s an absolute hell no from me.
”Skylar what?! I can’t take a risk on a person who won’t want to give anything back! I can not deal with commitment issues.” I shout.
”Okay, Novah. You aren’t even in anything with him other than friends, correct?”
"I guess."
”Okay Jon, Matt and I are going to a carnival tonight and Matt mentioned something about you coming. Hear that? He wanted you to come. Not only that I want you to come. And so does Jon! He’s so excited to meet you. Just feel it out with Matt. If you don’t like him or how it feels than he’s gone. Out. Okay? I want you to be happy with me.” I absolutely love her enthusiasm and loving nature.
”Okay." I confirm.
"Yes? You’ll come?!” she screams. The energy and enthusiasm is real.
"Yes," I say begrudgingly.
"Yayyyy," She squeals. "I’m so excited! Okay, enough about those two. We have one more day until school starts. let’s get this room decorated and we’re going shopping by the way." I roll my eyes.
"Skylar are you still drunk?"
"Maybe a little." she giggles and squeezes her forefinger and thumb together.
