Summer '09 ( Matt Espinosa )

Chapter 31

I stared at the ceiling, waiting for Matt to get here.

Thinking about the past two months, Matt knocked on my door, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"Coming!" I yelled, running towards the door, eager to see him. As I swung the door open, I jumped into matts arms, giving him a long kiss.

"Hey princess." Matt whispered into the kiss, making me smile.

"Hey." I said as he put me down.

"Ready to go?" Matt asked, grabbing my hand, leading me down towards the beach.

"Don't splash me!" I yelled, running away from Matt.

"I'll do what I want." He yelled back, splashing me again.

"Oh is that so?" I teased, running away from him.

"Yeah." He said, swooping me up and dunking me under, for about the 5th time this summer.

I came up, pushing him over before running back to land, trying to get some rest.

"You'll pay for that." Matt said, sitting down next to me, making us both laugh.

All a sudden my laugh faded, as a thought came to my mind that has come many times before. These are the very last days I have with Matt.

Matt noticed something was wrong, he grabbed my hand like he always does to comfort me.

"Abbe, what's wrong?" Matt asked, concerned.

"Do you realize we only have 4 days left, after today?" I asked, avoiding eye contact.

"Yes." He said, like it was no big deal.

"Well, don't you care?" I asked, confused on why he was taking it so lightly.

He took a deep breathe.

"Abbe, yes. I care. It's killing me. But worrying about it isn't going to do anything. I should enjoy these days while they last, and the last day we have together we can cry about it. Not now." He said, pulling me closer.

Matt was right, but I couldn't just forget about it.

I let out a huff, looking at Matt.

He slowly leaned in, not sure wether or not to kiss me or not. It kisses like these that give me the butterflies.

"I love you." He whispered against my lips, making me turn red.

"I love you too." I said, nuzzling my head into his neck.

"Even if we are miles and miles away, we will always be together. I promise, I'll never leave you." Matt said, wrapping him arms around me.

"Ready?" Matt said, looking over to me.

"Ready!" I yelled, grabbing his hand.

We counted down to three, before jumping into the dark, cold water.

As I hit the water, I let go of matts hand, so I could swim.

"That was awesome! We haven't done that since we were dared to!" He yelled, wiping the water off his face.

"I know." I laughed, swimming over to him.

"Jumping off the cliff never gets old." I said, pulling his face in for a kiss, making him laugh.

"I love you." I smiled, resting my forehead on his.

"I love you more." He winked, kissing my cheek.

"Not possible." I said, kissing his nose.

"So possible." He laughed, kissing my lips.

"Prove it." I said, with a straight face.

Matt didn't say anything, he just started at me for a couple seconds, examining my face.

He took my face in his hands, before crashing his lips to mine, kissing me like it would be the last time he ever did.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, getting a better angle to kiss him at.

"Abbe." He said, tugging at my bra strap, signaling for me to take if off.

"Matt were in a lake." I said, breaking the kiss.

"You said prove it. Now take it off. Anyways it's dark. " He smiled, making me give in.

I reached around, unclipping it before smashing my lips to his once more.

I used my feet to push off his boxers, earning a moan from him.

I could feel matts hands running down from my ribs slowly to my waist band, slowly making me go crazy.

"Come on." I said, getting impatient.

"Impatient are we?" He smirked, before pulling off my underwear.

"Yes!" I yelled, getting mad.

"Okay. You asked for it." He laughed.
