Why Me? (Matt Flyzik) *EDITING*

35: Baby Your Baby

The next day I woke up in a good mood. I was happy. I have a good life, I have a boyfriend who loves me and a family who loves me. A rush of guilt came through me as I remembered about my parents and brother. I had forgotten.

I got up and got changed then I left a note for Matt saying I was going for a walk. I put my shoes on then started walking. I didn't realize how early it was until I got outside. I walked to the lake and sat on the grass. It was a bit colder down by the lake but I didn't care.

I just sat there and thought until my stomach growled reminding me I eaten today. I got up and walked back to the house. Matt wasn't downstairs so I assumed he was upstairs. I walked up into the room and saw him in sweat pants.

"Hi." I said coming into the door. "Hey." He said turning around then came and kissed me. "Everything all right?" He asked. "Yeah." I nodded. We went downstairs and Matt made chocolate chip pancakes as I sat at the counter. 

Neither one of us spoke a word. He sat my plate down and I mumbled a thank-you. He looked at me concerned. I sighed. "Okay, so maybe everything's not all right." I said. "What's wrong?" He asked. "This morning when I woke up I was happy because I have such a good life, then I remember about my parents and brother." I said and tears came into my eyes.

Matt got up from his spot and pulled me into his arms until I calmed down. "I miss the rest of my family, my grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins." I said and he kissed my forehead. "Why don't you get ahold of them and see about going there for a while?" Matt suggested.

"I have school." I said, "You have a couple weeks before you go back to school." He said. "You're right. Yeah I will, could you maybe come with me if I go?" I asked. "Of course I would. I would just have to talk to Zack and make sure he doesn't kill me." He said with a smirk on his face which indicated he was joking about the Zack killing him part. 

I pecked his lips. "Thanks Matt." I said. "My pleasure." He said then sat down and we ate. 

After we ate I went on Facebook and messaged my grandmother asking if Matt and I could come down. I sent the message then closed my laptop. I went upstairs and started playing Baby Your Baby by George Strait. I was the fist song I ever learned how to play.

I like the song because it talks about love and what it really is, and I'm a sucker for romantic stuff. I quietly sang along to the lyrics. Matt came into my room and sat down across from me on a chair. 

All you know it all lovers better heed some advice,
If you're bad to your baby, you'd better think twice
Love don't come easy, love ain't blind
You got to show her you love her, morning and night
Be there for her just to make things right
Make her believe till there ain't a doubt in her mind

Better baby your baby with a love that's strong
Hold her and tell her you'll never do wrong
Better baby your baby 'cause if you don't
One day you're baby'll be gone 

Don't let her get lonely, don't make her cry
Don't take her for granted, don't tell her a lie
Bring her red roses, when she's blue
Give her the best of what you've got to give
You'll be together as long as you live
Better baby you're baby, and she'll baby you

Better baby your baby with a love that's strong
Hold her and tell her you'll never do wrong
Better baby your baby 'cause if you don't
One day you're baby'll be gone 

I sang. He smiled, "That totally fits today." I said. "I was thinking the same thing" He laughed. The next song I played was Dead Flowers by The Rolling Stones.

Well when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
Talkin' to some rich folk that you know
Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company
Well, you know I could never be alone

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Well when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
Ah, I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
And another girl to take my pain away

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

Take me down little Susie, take me down
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
And you can send me dead flowers by the U.S mail
Send me dead flowers by the mail
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
No I won't forget to put roses on your grave

~Later that night~

Matt and I were in bed just laying in the silence. "Hey Maddie?" He said. "Yeah?" I replied. "You know you don't have to feel guilty about your family." He said. "I know, I just do." I said. He turned to look at me so we could see each other.

"They love you and they would want you to move on, be happy." He said and I smiled. I kissed him softly then we went to sleep.
