Consequences

24-The perfect date

We decided to have it at Ben's place seeing as it was larger and also closer. Everyone dashed off to bring mattresses and duvets and clothes and movies and whatever else they wanted. Matt and I stay at our house for a bit longer. That makes me happy saying 'our house'. We slowly wander through it discovering all the cupboards and rooms. Then we dash over to Richard and Lily's so I can get my onesie and Matt can get his one that he left last time he and Lily stayed over. As soon as we've got them we say goodbye to Richard and ruthlessly avoid Lily. Zac picks us up in his car and I realize that he was the one who drove us to our new house. When we get to Bens, they've transformed it and it's now just a bunch of mattresses, duvets, blankets and sofas surrounding the tv and a few laptops and adapters.
"Wow! I love the re-decoration." I sarcastically tell Sophie and she smiles at me. I settle in between Karen and Matt and lean on Matt's shoulder. Although, I get uncomfy and he soon pulls me onto his lap. We decide to watch Mr & Mrs Smith, but I don't actually see much of the film because Karen keeps whispering to me all the way through. When it's finished Karen has an announcement, "OK GUYS WHO'S UP FOR TRUTH OR DARE? ALL IN FAVOR RAISE YOUR HAND" she adds jokingly. I raise mine and Matt does too, pretty much everyone does so we arrange ourselves into a circle while Ben goes to turn on some music. I try to get off Matt but he pretends that I'm his prisoner and keeps me locked in a hug. Karen volunteers herself to start.
"Okay, I choose dare..." She challenges.
"KAZ, I dare you to speak in an English accent for the rest of the night." Matt says.
"Easy!" Karen remarks in her new accent, "Okay I choose Tom to go next."
"Errr, truth?"
"What would your life be like without me?!" Zac grins jokingly.
Tom clears his throat and gets a serious face on, "Zac, without you my life would be very different. For one thing I wouldn't have one of my best friends..."
We all share looks with someone across the circle because we all know how deep Tom gets. "And I choose Jenna."
I look up, "dare...." I confidently suggest. Matt grins, "I dare you to kiss Matt Smith." He puckers his lips idiotically and I roll my eyes and just to annoy him I kiss his forehead. Everyone instantly looks disappointed. "What?! He said to kiss him... He never said where!" I sigh, "Okay, fine Matt come here." I then kiss him on the lips and sarcastically add a bit of passion but then realize I can't stop myself and this is just my natural way of kissing him now.
Eventually I pull away and try not to smile as I glance around the circle. "I choose Zac." I say and give Zac a grin.
"Okay, truth." He says.
"If you could choose two people to be your otp in this room, who would you choose?" Emma asks.
"Easy," Zac starts, "Matt and Jenna!" I frown at Zac but Matt pulls me into another kiss and I must admit this is starting I get weird the amount of times we're kissing, is this what couples are meant to do? Anyway I let go of that thought and relish the moment.
"Looks like that dream came true Zac." Matt winks at him and then opens his legs and pulls me in the middle of them snapping them shut around me.
"Matt.." I complain. He puts a finger to my lips, "I'm just giving Zac what he wants." And wraps his arms around me.
"Okay, I'm not complaining." I smile. The game carries on and Matt keeps being an adoring boyfriend. He fondles my hair, attempts to massage my back, pulls my hair into weird hair styles and keeps kissing my head. I feel like we're alone because no one else seems as interesting as Matt does right now.
I am so distracted by my intense situation with Matt that I don't realize when the game has finished and keep sitting with him until everyone has drifted away from us.
"Hey... I just realized, I haven't eaten since breakfast!" I tell Matt as I turn around to stare up into his eyes.
"Well then, I think we're gonna have to get you some food." He grabs my hand and pulls us both up. "Hey Sophie is it alright if we use the kitchen?" Matt asks from across the room. She nods and then turns back to Ben and Tom. Eagerly, Matt drags me quickly into the kitchen and I stagger along behind him.
As soon as we are in the kitchen he pulls me close to him and stares super intensely into my eyes. "I do not know how to cook a single thing..." He admits and I giggle while he spins around looking for things that may be edible.
"Oooh I know, I can make pancakes!" He exclaims. I raise my eyebrows at him and he pulls on an apron and tries to make his hair look like a chef hat. I can't help laughing at how ridiculous he seems and sounds. But despite all that I can hear my heart beat racing as he comes nearer me and I feel a fluttery sensation that makes me feel complete.
"Call me Matthew, Matthew the chef..." Matt tries to look mysterious.
"Yep, reason number one you're not a cook: you can't cook, number two: your now pretending to be a spy, and reason number three: I thought cooks were meant to be sexy and mysterious... And your neither of those!" I gasp as Matt pulls me so close to him that the fluttering in my stomach starts to feel more like a pounding.
"Are you saying I'm not sexy..." He raises an eyebrow and in that moment I literally die inside.
"No." I barely whisper and he swiftly grabs a frying pan from the cupboard. Without taking his eyes of me he places the frying pan on the hob and then instantly appears back at my side. Spontaneously he picks me up and puts me on the kitchen counter, I sit there and swing my legs a bit. I watch with a smirk on my face as he goes about mixing the batter and trying to look mysterious. While we are waiting for something, I have no idea what but Matt isn't doing anything, I jump down and slowly walk over to Matt. "Matthew the chef, still isn't being very sexy... Any thoughts on that?" I challenge whilst sucking in my breath. From my point of view, he is being very attractive and the only thing stopping me from kissing him right now is that he's supposedly cooking.
"Hmm, we'll have to do something about that then, won't we?" And he starts to run a finger down my neck.
"Are you acting, Matt?" I laugh nervously. But I don't know why I'm nervous about what's going to happen next. There's a pause as I wait for his response.
"Yes, I can't do this all I want to do right now is kiss you and I don't-" he mumbles quickly
"Oh for gods sake, just shut up and kiss me!"

This is a long chapter... All I can say is they stay this length. Charis x
