Episode 4- Unrealistic

"W-What are you talking about? Quite joking!"

I panicked. What is he saying?

"But I wasn't joking though."

I really don't know. Is he really saying the truth? He loves me?

"I already said it a while ago, but you didn't listen." He said it with a serious face.

"A while ago? "

"Yeah, you didn't listen I thought you were sick."

"Ah-" so the thing he said but I didn't listen was... a confession? Ah! Really! Stupid me! How can I miss this?!

Wait, does that mean I, just now, destroyed a good mood?

"Oh God , I'm so sorry."

"What should I do? I was so nervous.  I prepared myself to confess my feelings for you and you weren't even listening. I'm totally disappointed. "

"W-what should I do?!"

"Hahaha... I'm joking." He smiled again. Today, I get to see him smile a lot. I'm so happy.

"I'm fine with it. So... what about you?"

"What about me? Oh- ! I- I like you."

"Like me?" He brought his face closer to me.

"I- I love you. I love you , Matthew."

Matthew held my shoulders with one hand and with the other he held my head and pulled me to the floor.

"W- What are you doing?"  His hand holding my head moved gently to my forehead keeping the hair from interfering.

Matthew moved slowly closer to me. He gently grabbed my face and touched my lip.

*click*

Suddenly we heard some sound and we both froze. Our faces were really close, we were about to kiss.

Matthew and I were surprised. It was the sound of the door opening. I blushed. Someone came and interrupted us. So embarrassing.

“Matthew, I’m home.”

Matthew backed off and helped me stand up.

‘It’s my mom.” He said quietly.

“Y-Your mom?!”

“Yeah, it’s ok. You stay here, I will go talk to her.”

“Eh? oh ok…”

Matthew came out of the room, closing the door, leaving me there.

My whole face was red. Everything today was so unrealistic. I never imagined that Matthew would confess to me. Only a few moments ago he was complaining about how he hated how girls treated him and how dating him became a game. B-But, he was fine with me, right? Does it means he is gay and that he likes me? Wait, does it mean we are now dating?

……

"Hey mom, you are back early." Matthew said while he went down the stairs to the kitchen.

His mother smiled. "Yeah, they let me go early because there wasn't a lot of work to do!" She laughed. It seems that she was in a really good mood. "Oh? And who is this behind you? a friend?"

"What? Behind me?" Matthew turned around and saw Noah waving to him. "Y-Yeah it's my friend."

"Good! what's your name sweetie?"

"Don't call him sweetie mom..."

"It's Noah."

"Would you like to stay for dinner, Noah?"

"I would love to."

"Ehhhhh?!"

....

When I opened my eyes, it was already morning. The rays of the sun came in through the window in my room, dazzling my eyes.

I sat down, touching my eyes. trying to not fall asleep again.

What a stupid dream. Why of all times, I'm dreaming about it now? Is it because I saw Matthew after more then two years that I felt feelings of longing?

I imagined him again. I imagine how his hair looked good in the wind, how handsome he looked in the high-school uniform, and how surprised he was after he noticed me.

His face changed a bit but he still look the same. I think it is a good change. He looked even more handsome then before. He looked like a model. It's seems that he got even taller then he already was.

I felt weird down there. I lifted my blanket up a little.

"Sh*t, this is the worst..."
