“So are you guys finally boyfriend and girlfriend?” Emma asked excitedly as we walked through the mall. I sighed and stared forward, trying to decide on where to go next.
“I… don’t even know.” I answered, pursing my lips. Her face dropped.
“How do you not even know?” She questioned, staring at me. I gave her a look and began directing us towards the Scooters.
“Well we kissed and shit two days ago but he hasn’t actually asked me out yet,” I explained. Emma gave me a look and I shrugged. “We’re going to Scooters. I want coffee.”
“Coffee makes me sick.” Emma said flatly. I gave her a look and rolled my eyes.
“Then we’re going to Scooters to get me a coffee and you a smoothie.” I restated. Emma smiled happily and I dragged her by the arm to Scooters. We ordered our drinks and sat down as we waited.
“So do you think he-“
“Wait a second,” I began as the chick brought us our drinks. “You haven’t been working for two months. Did you get fired?”
“What-Oh, no. My manager told me they’re doing some exchange thing and that I’m off schedule until further notice.” Emma replied as she took a drink of her smoothie. I waited a few seconds before taking a sip of my coffee and looking back at her quizzically. “I’m still getting paid though.”
“Well that makes sense as to why you have money yet haven’t been working,” I said, nodding. She raised her eyebrows and gave me a look.
“Have you found a job yet?” She asked mockingly. I stuck my tongue out at her and took another drink of my coffee.
“If you haven’t noticed, by job-searching has been stopped for my boy-searching,” I retorted. She rolled her eyes and took a drink. “And anyways, I’m still getting those ‘here’s for rent’ checks from my grandparents.”
“How do you get those checks from your grandparents every month?” Emma asked, raising an eyebrow.
“They’re rich and I’m their favorite grandkid.” I answered smugly.
“So you’re a freeloader.” Emma commented, taking a drink from her smoothie. I dropped my mouth, slightly offended.
“No. I’ve told them multiple times that they didn’t need to send me money. But they insisted,” I whined, taking a drink. “I mean, seriously, they would probably send enough money for us to buy a house if I asked.”
“Then buy us a house.” Emma suggested, smirking.
“No. That’s freeloading.” I retorted, rolling my eyes. We sat in silence for a little bit and when we both got half-way done we decided to get up and keep walking. We intertwined our arms once again and began our trek down the long hallway of the mall once again. As we passed a mattress store, I stopped. “I just realized something.”
“What?” Emma questioned.
“We both have boys now,” I began, looking at her. She nodded.
“Yeah… and?”
“We have two rooms in our apartment,” I continued, internally hoping Emma would catch on. She didn’t. She gave me a slightly irritated look and sighed.
“So?”
“But we only have one bed.” I finished, giving her a look. She oh’ed in understanding before looking at me. I sighed. “So what we should do is get a new bed and stick it in our spare bedroom. So that way when one of us has a boy over, they can stay in the spare bedroom while the forever alone one stays in our bedroom.”
“What about if both of them come over?” Emma questioned, nodding at the idea so far. I smiled proudly.
“Whoever invites their boyfriend over first gets our bedroom.” I answered. Emma nodded and we began walking towards the mattress store. As we reached the doorway, Emma stopped.
“How will we pay for this?” Emma asked. I smiled widely and took out my debit card.
“Just got the check from my grandparents two days ago.” I smiled. With that, we walked into the store.

“I invited Matt and Johnny over.” Emma called from the living room. I huffed and smiled.
After we had bought the mattress I literally went above and beyond to make the spare room homey. While at the mall I had also bought a black headboard for the mattress, white sheets, red comforter, and golden pillow cases. By now Emma told me I can just decorate the way I want because I was going all-out to buy things for the bedroom. We returned home and had movers help us lug the mattress and headboard up the flight of stairs and into the room. As Emma had the workers put the headboard together, I went to Brian’s and borrowed his BMW before heading to the furniture store. I bought two black-finish side tables, candles, a princess overhead (the thing you hook over your bed and it makes your bed look all princess-y), tool, and fake rose petals. I drove back to my house and brought the things up, and by then the workers were gone and the bed was made. I set the side tables next to the bed and hung the princess overhead, making it hang around the edges of the headboard. I placed the candles on the side tables and threw the rose petals on the floor. By now Emma realized where I was getting at and we renamed the spare bedroom the sex bedroom. I had Emma return Brian’s BMW while I made the finishing touches of adding gold, black, and red tool around the room.
“Oh, so he comes over when someone else invites him.” I complained jokingly as I began wrapping golden tool on the footboard of the bed. “Next time I want him over I’m having you invite him.”
“That will seem kind of rude.” Emma replied. I shrugged and continued my wrapping. Emma came in and leaned against the door. “You need to talk to him tonight.”
“About what?” I questioned, not looking at her. She walked over and sat on the bed. I glanced up at her and she was staring intently at me, her eyebrows raised.
“Whether you guys are a thing or not.” Emma answered. I sighed.
“I don’t want to talk to him about that,” I muttered, trying not to look at her. I could feel Emma’s stare burning into my head, but I kept myself from looking.
“It’s either now or when we’re by everyone. Because you have to talk to him,” Emma said as she walked out of the room. I sighed, I hated when Emma was right. I slouched down and stared blankly at the board, which was only half-way lined with tool. After a few minutes I began working on it again, and when I was almost finished the door opened.
“Hey Emma.” Johnny greeted. I saw him walk over from the corner of my eye but nothing else. Maybe Matt ditched again.
“Matt, Jessi’s in the sex room.” Emma commented. I cussed under my breath and heard footsteps.
“Sex room?” I heard Johnny ask. Both of the guys stopped in the doorway and looked at the room in awe. As I gazed around the bedroom, I had to admire myself at how well I had put the bedroom together. It really did look like a honeymoon suite you’d take out of a movie. Both of the guys looked down at me and gave me a look. “You did this?”
“Yeah. So now you and Emma won’t deflower my bed.” I snapped playfully, winking at him.
“Oh, Matt, you and Jessi will be staying in the sex room tonight. I asked Johnny to stay first,” Emma sang as she pulled Johnny into the living room. I felt my cheeks heat up and I turned away from Matt to finish the last of the golden tool. Matt walked over and sat on the edge of the bed.
“Why did you guys make a new bedroom?” Matt asked, smiling at me. I smiled back and began tying the end of the tool around the stub of the footboard.
“For when Emma has Johnny over. And maybe for us.” I stated, keeping my attention on tying. Even though I wasn’t looking at him, I still saw his eyebrows raise at my comment.
“Maybe?” He questioned. I looked up at him and nodded. “Why maybe?”
“Well, you haven’t technically asked me out yet, so we’re still just love interests at this point.” I explained, standing myself up. He grabbed me by my hand and sat me on his lap, wrapping his arms around my waist.
“I assumed your whole ‘do you wanna back out’ was asking to be together.” Matt mumbled, caressing my chin with his fingers. I shook my head and smiled. Matt smiled back and shrugged. My face dropped.
“So are we not going to date then?” I questioned, my chest tightening up. He immediately shook his head and I calmed down.
“I’m just not going to ask you now, because that wouldn’t be romantic.” Matt whispered, leaning towards me. Our lips touched and I smiled. He pulled me closer and I wrapped my arms around his neck, deepening the kiss.
“Guys, come out here!” Emma yelled, cock-blocking me for the millionth time since I’ve known her. I growled and Matt smiled against my lips.
“No.” I replied, pushing Matt down so I was hovering over him. I gently bit his lip and he let out a small moan, which caused me to shiver.
“You guys can have sex later, but we’re watching the Lion King Trilogy and ordering pizza. Get your asses out here or we’ll drag you out.” Emma snapped. I rolled my eyes and reluctantly pulled away from Matt. He sat up and pouted.
“She’s like, half the size of us. How could she drag us?” Matt whispered. I smiled and chuckled.
“Don’t underestimate Emma’s strength.” I replied, kissing him gently. He stood up and I wrapped my legs around his waist as he began walking out the door of the sex room. He set me on my feet and lounged across our couch and patted the space in front of him. I happily laid down in front of him and he hugged me closely. I glanced at Emma and Johnny, and they were both gawking at us.
“Oh my God guys, we understand. Matt and I are cuddling, what a shocker.” I said mockingly. They all laughed and Emma started the first Lion King movie before doing what she had done before and sucked Johnny’s face. I made a disgusted face and snuggled my back into Matt.

“Emma. You guys successfully managed to continuously shove each other’s tongues down the other’s throat for three hours. Please go take it to the bedroom and if you deflower my bed you’re burning the old one and buying me a new one.” I muttered tiredly, throwing a couch pillow at Emma and Johnny. They finally pulled away and smiled at each other before standing up from the chair and heading towards my bedroom. I shut off the TV and cleaned up the mess from dinner while Matt continued to lounge on the couch. He fell asleep half-way through the second movie and he was too cute to wake up. Before I woke him up I took a box of matches and went into the sex room and lit the candles on the side tables. I set the box of matches in the drawer of one of them and headed back to the living room. I heard muffled moans coming from my bed room and I shivered in horror. That is disgusting. I shut off all the lights and shook Matt lightly to wake him up. His eyes fluttered open and I smiled. “Come on, silly. Let’s go sleep on an actual bed.”
“Are Johnny and Emma having sex in your bedroom?” Matt mumbled, making a disgusted face. He heard them too. I pursed my lips and nodded sullenly before grabbing his hand and pulling him up. He followed me into the sex room and walked to one side of the bed after shutting the door behind him. I slid down my denim shorts and crawled under the comforter. Matt pulled off his shirt and pants before mimicking me and pulling me close to him as he snuggled under the comforter. In the candle-light I could tell his eyes were full of want and I blushed. He smiled alluringly and pulled me into a kiss. His hands went to my lower back as mine went to his neck and his hair. He traced my bottom lip with his tongue, but I just smiled and continued kissing him. He growled hungrily and slid his hand onto my butt, causing me to gasp. He slid his tongue in and swirled ours together, causing my mind to become clouded.
This could not be happening, I could not be making out with Matt Sanders. How could it possibly be that the first Avenged Sevenfold concert I go to I get Matt freaking Sanders to fall in love with me? Or, if not fall in love, than atleast to want to have sex with me? I wasn’t anything special. I had brown hair that I had dyed from my previous blonde hair that wasn’t extremely long or even naturally straight or naturally curly. It was that irritating naturally wavy that made it look like my hair had a gravitational pull to the right of me all the time. My eyes were bright blue, but they were nothing special. I was short for my age and I didn’t have a fabulous body that makes me stand out. I was utterly normal, yet somehow Matt Sanders found something in me that he liked.
I was pulled out of my self-analyzing by Matt pulling me closer to him by my butt. I let out a breath and sucked on his lip ring, causing him to moan. He mimicked my motion, which made me give the same reaction as him. He rubbed my waist as he deepened the kiss, and I traced the muscles in his back. He shivered and scratched at my hips, causing me to shake. I pulled away from his lips and went to his neck, biting down roughly. He gasped and I sucked on his neck, releasing another moan from him. He slid his hands up my back and played with my bra clasp, but never unclipped it. He pulled me back to his lips hungrily and bit my lip, causing me to shiver. He kissed me deeply and slowly our heated kiss turned into small pecks. He finally pulled away and smiled at me. I returned the smile and he caressed my face.
“Kid, will you be mine?” He whispered. I nodded and he smiled, pulling me into a hug. I sat up and blew out the candles before snuggling myself into Matt’s chest. He wrapped his arms tightly around me and I fell asleep to his heartbeat.
