"5:59 AM"
{ Matthew's P.O.V }

I toss and turn, why can't I get this beautiful girl off my mind? Just like for one second? Whatever, might as well just get ready for school since I can't fall back asleep. I groan and slid off my bed, grabbing the set of clothes on my floor. What? Don't judge me..

Once I finished getting ready, I ate some cereal and scrolled through Instagram. Milo came downstairs a few minutes later, we played Fortnite until Mom came downstairs. I grabbed my backpack, waved goodbye to my Mom and Brother then left to Parker's place. I knocked on their door and his older brother Ryan opened the door.

Ryan: What's up Matt?

Matthew: Nm, I'll be waiting for Park

He nodded then we did our handshake, a few minutes later he came down and we left to the bus stop. I saw Leah staring at me then I smirked and did one wave, she blushed. That made me smirk even more...ha

{ Leah's P.O.V }

I was staring at my crush until he caught me, dang it. He smirked then waved, I blushed. He smirked even more, I just smiled then turn away. I was with my brother and sister, they caught me staring at him

Lauren: You really like him, huh?

Leah: I-I guess...

Lucas: LEAH'S GOT A CRUSH! LEAH'S GOT-

I smacked his mouth shut, my face turned red. Matthew turned around and walked up to us, I wiped off my tomato face. He did a handshake with my brother, I just smiled widely.

Matthew: So, what up L?

L? He has a nickname for me already? OMG YESS!!! I stared at him for a couple of minutes

Matthew: Uhhmm, ok?...

He walked away and I slapped my face, Lauren was smirking while Lucas was trying so hard not to burst out laughing. I was about to slap their faces when the bus pulled up, I walked into the bus and waved to my sister.

{ Matthew's P.O.V }

Parker was playing games on his phone while I was listening to some music, buuuuuut when I turn around to look at Parker I always catch Leah staring at me. I chuckle to myself, she likes me i'm guessing... Well that's good because I like her too, I'm even gonna ask her out today. I'm gonna tell the plan to Parker but I don't want anyone to hear me, so i'm gonna text him.

Matthew: Bro, i'm gonna ask L out today.
Parker: YOU'RE GAY?! WOW I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE GONNA ASK OUT LUCAS TODAY?!!
Matthew: Idiot. I'm gonna ask out Leah.
Parker: ahh makes more sense...

I chuckle then hit Parker in the shoulder, he shrugs then continue playing on his phone. I just lean my head on the window and stare at the beautiful sightings on LA

After a few minutes, we arrived to school. Parker and I met up with Lucas then went to class. I heard a girl whisper to her friend "I can't believe THE Matthew Manheim is gonna be asking out Elliana Manchester. Like really?"
My eyes widened, ELLIANA?! Nah! I'm asking out Leah! Not that evil monster. I shrug then kept talking to Lucas and Parker.

{ Leah's P.O.V }

My friend Isabella comes up to me panicking, I pat her back and asks what's wrong.

Isabella: Leah! U-uhm guess what Matt's gonna do today...

She says nervously, I raise my eyebrow and reply with

Leah: What is he gonna do?

Isabella: H-he's gonna ask out E-Elliana..

Leah: oh.

Isabella: If he broke your heart, then ignore him ok?

I nod and walk to next period...SHOOT! I sit next to Matthew! How am I gonna avoid him?!
Whatever, just try your best Leah...I walk up to our desk and he smirks, god I just wanted to smack off that c-cute smirk...WHAT AM I SAYING?! Ugh! I turn to him since he patted my shoulder...I glare at him and say "What." Harshley, was that to mean. His eyes soften and turn glossey then turns with anger and still sadness, he walks out of the class with pale fists. What did I just do?

{ Matthew's P.O.V }

What did I do wrong? Why was she being mean to me? My thoughts were inturepted by a text message..

New Text Message From Leah

Leah: Matthew? Where r u going?
                             

Read✔️

Leah: I'm sorry for being harsh, I was just having a bad morning..
                             

Read✔️

Leah: Please Matthew? Can you answer me?

Read✔️

I turn off my phone, should I forgive her? Yeah I should. As she said, she was having a bad morning so I shouldn't mess with her morning even more, I replied her messages

Matthew: Yea, i'm fine
Leah: Oh phew, where you headed to?
Matthew: I just had to get something from my locker, i'll be right there
Leah: Oki

I bolted to the class and saw that my teacher fell asleep, I shushed the class and grabbed a piece of paper. They gave me weird looks as I crumpled the paper, I winked at the girls making them almost fall off the chair. I threw the ball at my teachers face and ran back to my desk, he didn't have a reaction at all. But the class bursted out laughing, I joined them after 4 seconds. I could see Leah tearing up from her laughter, I fell off my chair only to gain more laughter from Leah and the rest. God I love her laugh. The bell rang after a few minutes, we stopped our laughing session and walked out of the class. Leah and I stood really closely while walking to next class, I stopped walking and Leah noticed she patted my shoulder. Everyone walked to their class and we ended up being the only ones in the hallway, I look up to her. Her gorgeous eyes, hair that flows perfectly from the wind. I wouldn't mind if I kissed her right now...I choked out the words

Matthew: W-will you be m-my girlfriend?

Leah: OMG! YES!

I chuckled and put my hands on her waist, she blushed really hard while biting her lips. She stopped and I took my chance, I kissed her. She kissed back immediately, I wanted more...What? But she pulled away, I frowned playfully. She chuckled

Leah: We're in the middle of the hallway Matt

Matthew: Let's continue this after school.

Leah: Maybe yes, maybe not ;)

Matthew: UGH! You're such a tease!

She chuckled then pulled my arm to class, we weren't late at all. I was shocked, at least I wasn't late. The teacher just gave us plain old homework, to be honest I didn't pay attention at all. Usually I do, but I couldn't keep my eyes off of my beautiful girlfriend.

*DRING*

FINALLY! I hate school so much, the day went by so fast. I invited Leah to come over, hope Milo and Mom won't mind.

I got off the bus and waved goodbye to Lucas and Parker, then I took Leah's hand and walked home. I finally got the girl of my dream's.
