"matt!" i scream as i run and jump onto him.
my heart sunk and i quickly started crying. damn i missed this boy so badly.
"hey, don't cry!" he laughs as he tightly hugs me.
"i missed you so much." my arms got tighter and my legs got tighter in excitement.
"woah! don't strangle me." he laughs as he puts me down on the floor, "i've missed you too."
"what are you doing here? i haven't seen you in ages." i say as i wipe away the tears.
"your dad hit me up and told me to come over because you may need someone to talk to?" he questions.
"oh yeah, this past month as been crazy." i laugh.
"do you wanna talk about it?" he asks me.
"lets not ruin something good." i say before squealing and engulfing him into a hug again.
"god you don't know how much i needed to see you." i state.
"same for you! is vanessa here?" he asks.
"yeah, lets go see her." i say as i pull away from the hug.
"vanessa cover your eyes!" i call from the top of the stairs.
i quietly bring matt down the stairs and place him a few feet in front of her.
"you ready?" i ask.
"yes yes yes!" she exclaims.
"open!"
i watch her as she takes her small hands off her eyes and looks up as she adjusts to the light.
"uncle matt!" she yells as she runs up to him and gives him a hug.
he gently hugged her back as he lifted her and spun her around.
"hello!" he says as he puts her down.
"is it really you?" she asks as she touches different parts of his face.
"no, i'm a monster!" he growls causing vanessa to scream.
matt started chasing her around as he shouted things like 'i'm gonna get you' or 'grrr'.
"thank you!" i say to my dad as i pull him into a hug.
"it's okay."
"you don't understand, this is the happiest i've been in a while." i smile as i watch matt and vanessa play together, "thank you dad."
"do you wanna stay over?" i ask, matt after a while of sitting on the couch.
"you sure?"
"obviously, we have so much to talk about! plus nothing that i have to deal with both vanessa and dad are asleep." i shrug.
"then sure, lets start off with why this month has been crazy shall we?" he asks as he takes a sip out of his rosé.
we're adults now, we know what we're doing.
"you're in for a treat," i laugh as i rest my legs on his, "it's cameron."
he chokes on his drink before finally speaking, "dallas?"
i nod.
"the asshole?"
i nod.
"the one who left you?"
i nod.
"the c-."
"yes, that one!" i yell.
"what about him?" he questions.
"here comes a long ass story." i sigh.
"no, fucking way?" matt says with his jaw dropped after i told him everything.
"yes, fucking way."
"your best friend made out with him?" he asks in disgust.
"such a best friend she was." i say before gulping down the rest of my drink.
"slow down!" he laughs.
"we both know i needed that. enough about me-what are you focused on right now?" i question.
"well, i really want to start a career in photography."
my body jolts and i gasp, "you know where a great place to start a career in photography with perfect scenery is?"
"where?" he chuckles.
"in long beach."
"it's really pretty there." he nods.
"and who lives in long beach?" i question as he furrows his brows in confusion, "me you dumbass! you can come stay with me there!"
"that's a great idea but i don't know if it's the alcohol talking, plus i don't want to disturb you and vanessa."
"it's definitely not the alcohol, i'm not a lightweight anymore" i laugh, "and how would you disturb us? we both love you and we have plenty of space in our house."
"wouldn't i get annoying though?" he questions.
"your daily text messages haven't gotten annoying." i laugh, "plus i just want you back in my life everyday."
"same for you, it'll definitely be taken into consideration."
"yay!" i exclaim as i clap my hand together in excitement.
i did really miss this guy.
