Secrets I Have Held In My Heart
You Know That I Could Use Somebody
Robyn
“You what?” I said, choking on my water. “Why? You two were always so cute together” I stared into Matt’s hazel eyes, something that I didn’t do very often, and it took me this long to realize how beautiful they were. How handsome he was. He was such a sweet man, He took care of Val, spoiled her beyond belief. He was the definition of perfect, He had a kind and genuine soul, and never meant harm to anybody. He was so much taller than me, damn near a foot taller than me. He had beautiful hazel eyes that made you feel like he was looking into your soul. He was the type of muscular that when he hugged you, he made you feel like you were in the safest place in the world. His voice was scratchy and just the right pitch, I could listen to it for hours.
“Robyn?” I heard my name being called, snapping me back to reality. I looked at Matt. “I’m so sorry, I just I could use somebody like you” I said softly. I don’t know what came over me, but I crawled over to him after setting my plate down and hugged him. Feeling his arms wrap around me, I felt so safe. So secure. I squeezed him tightly before looking up at him. His hazel eyes were filled with confusion, “Are you okay?” He asked me. I smiled slightly. “Better than what I have been in a while,” I told him. I bit onto my lip before leaning up and kissing him softly. I don’t know why I decided to do it, I just needed to know. Needed to know how I really felt about him. The way that my heart raced, the way that I got butterflies in my stomach, proved to me, that I liked him more than a friend. I had never felt that way for Brian. At least not as strong as I did for Matt.
Matt
I had begun to tell Robyn about why Val and I broke off our engagement, but she had just started staring at me. Not even blinking. I was worried slightly, she was a good woman, a beautiful one, and Brian broke her. When she told me that she could use someone like me, it made me smile slightly. It made me smile even more whenever she hugged me. It felt so right to have her in my arms. I’d love to share my room with her, have a family with her. I asked her if she was okay, and before I even had time to process her answer, she had her lips pressed against mine. I couldn’t believe that this was happening. I placed my hand on her cheek and pulled her body closer to mine. The way she made my heart race and made my stomach do backflips, made me realize that the feelings I had for her, were very much real. I wrapped my free hand around her body and just as I started to deepen the kiss, she pulled away. I looked at her with worried eyes.
“I’m sorry if I took things too far” I told her instantly. I didn’t want to push her away. “No Matt, you’re okay. I promise.” She said, running her thumb across my cheek. “Can I ask, what was that all about?” I chewed on my lip out of worry and curiosity. “I needed to know.” Was all that came out of her mouth as she stared into my eyes. “Needed to know what?” I was so confused as I stared into her beautiful brown eyes. Brushing some of her blonde hair out of her face, I waited for an answer. “How I really felt about you,” I let out a long breath, it was like I hadn’t been breathing at all. “How do you feel about me?” I asked, a lump forming in my throat, I was hoping that she would feel the same way about me as I did her.
“I feel like there could be something there. More than friends I mean” That sentence, made my heart soar.She felt the same way about me, that I did her. “You have no idea how happy that makes me Robyn. I won’t rush anything, I promise, I’ll take things slow. Wait until you’re ready. You have my word. “ I told her, Words just rushing out of my mouth. A huge smile appeared on my face, my dimples being exposed. I chewed on my lip and leaned in and kissed her forehead.
“I want to do what’s right and good for you” I whispered to her, pulling her into a hug.
“You what?” I said, choking on my water. “Why?

Notes
So I'm sorry for taking so long to update, and that it's very short. Do you guys think that Matt's going to get used as a rebound? Do you think Brian will be able to charm his way back into Robyn's heart?Title Credit: Kings of Leon - Use Somebody
