Matt's POV
I was nervous, I don't know why, it was Adrienne for god sake, and then when I walked in and saw her, I was speechless. She looked amazing.
We went to dinner, which was nice. I'd always been comfortable around Adrienne, so talking to her was easy.
After dinner I suggested a walk on the beach and I was glad that she agreed. I wanted to talk to her, no tell her that I liked her, actually I think I liked her alot, and tell her again how sorry I was for everything I'd done to her, I was still ashamed, and now looking at her, I felt even worse. Why had I not seen how amazing she was before?
I couldn't put into words what I wanted to say to her, and she was standing there looking at me, waiting.
Now I felt awkward, I didn't know what to do so I reached out and pulled her to me, she smiled at me, she was beautiful when she smiled. I reached up and touched her face, I'd made the decision I was going to kiss her again.
"Matt, I need to ask you something?" She whispered.
"And what is that?"
I wasn't prepared for what came out of her mouth.
"Are you doing this to make Amber jealous?"
What the fuck. Where had that come from?
I stepped back, looking at her. Did she honestly think I was trying to make Amber jealous?
It's your own fault, I thought, you can't blame her.
And it was my fault.
"Why would you say that?" I said.
I wanted to punch myself in the face, I sounded snappy, I should have just kept my mouth shut.
She opened her mouth, then shut it again, looking at me.
I was a fucking idiot. I needed to say something.
"I'm sorry." She said quickly.
She turned around and started walking away.
Fuck.
"Adrienne, wait." I said.
Fuck, now she wasn't going to stop.
I walked after her, grabbing her arm. "Don't walk away."
She looked at me. "I just thought......"
"What? What did you think?" Fuck, I sounded snappy again.
"It doesn't matter." She started to pull her arm away.
Fuck Matt, you need to fix this now.
I threw my shoes on the ground and pulled her to me again. This was it, I was going to do it. I put one arm around her waist, pulling her in close and I slid my other hand on the back oh her neck, pulling her lips too mine.
I brushed my lips across hers and looked at her. She was standing there with her eye's closed. I took that as good sign.
I put my lips back to hers, kissing her softly. God, it was fantastic, I had this crazy feeling in my stomach which got even crazier when her lips responded to mine.
"Does that answer your question?" I whispered against her lips.
"I think so." She murmured.
"You only think so?" I said kissing her again.
I heard her drop her shoes, she reached up and put her arms around my neck. This was a good sign, a very good sign.
We stood there kissing for awhile. I honestly lost all concept of time, kissing her had an effect on me.
I pulled back and looked at her again. "Now?"
She nodded and smiled shyly.
"Good." I kissed her again, I couldn't help it, I was beginning to think I couldn't stop.
I didn't want to.
