FORBIDDEN

Ella's POV;

2 months.

2 months its been since I started dating Mattie, and started fake dating Joe.

Mum has made me bring Joe home to dinner a few times, where we've had to pretend that we're a couple.

We did it with ease to be honest, I just couldn't help wishing that it was Mattie sitting next to me, across from my parents and not his brother.

Every second I spend with Mattie I fall for him more and more. I think I'm falling in love with him.

Obviously I really really liked him, but I've never quite felt anything like this before.

It's hard to explain, but it feels like every time I'm with him, there's a fire in my belly, and I feel invincible. He makes me happier than anyone ever could, and I really think I'm falling in love with him.

Obviously I'll never tell him this because he might think I'm an emotional teenager that's just desperate for love, or he'll run for the hills.

Now I found my feelings very odd, as I always used to cringe when I heard someone say they loved their boyfriend or girlfriend when they had only been together a couple of months, because love was such a strong word.

But being with Mattie made me realise - there was no real time limit on if you loved someone or not. You could be with someone for a week and just know you love them.

That's what it felt like with me and Mattie. I had only been with him a short time of 2 months, but I already knew I was falling in love with him.

"What are you daydreaming about?" Donte asks me.

I sorted things out with Donte, he also liked me so he felt left out when I went with Nate that night at the party and not him, but we sorted things out now and we're good.

"Oh nothing really, I'm just tired that's all," I lie.

"Maybe you should go to bed earlier and stop letting Joe keep you up all night," He smirks and points his head at my neck.

I instantly remember the hickey that Mattie had left when I saw him the other night.

"Shhhh," I giggle whilst trying to cover it up.

"We better go to class," Chase says and I nod before collecting my shit.

I walk into my favourite class and sit on the front table as usual.

Mattie was looking extremely gorgeous as always.

His suits were getting tighter and tighter, and I smirk as I was the one who suggested that he should wear tighter suits.

It's going to be very hard to resist him this lesson.

Joe takes a seat next to me and smirks.

"What?" I raise one of my eyebrows at him.

"Try and make it less obvious you're dating the teacher," He whispers very very quietly and I blush.

"You whispering dirty things in her ear?" Donte smirks.

"Something like that," Joe replies and I chuckle.

"Right class, today you will be carrying on with your work from last lesson, and I will call you up one by one so I can have a little 10 minute chat with you individually about your work and progress," He tells us and I choke.

"Something the matter Miss Faye?" He looks directly at  me.

Oh fuck he's making me nervous again.
