《The Unexpected [M.E]》13
Advertisement
The Italian man finally stops at the end and Laura stays quiet with a smile on her face. Matthew helps her out of the small boat, the rest of the crew doing as suit and meeting up together. Laura's face was flush and she didn't dare meet Matthews eyes after the kiss and what he had confessed. She only felt his hand interlock with hers and the feeling sent chills down her spine. Dusty had saw what happened and she was grinning the whole time, sending Laura a quick wink and smirk. Laura just shook her head, biting her lip to suppress the smile that wanted to form.
They all had seen the slick move that Matthew had gifted, and they all knew it was going to happen one way or another.
Matthew lowered his lips near Laura's ear as they started to walk, "Are you going to tell me what's going on that pretty little head of yours,"
"I'd rather not," She replied to his cocky question, even though deep down she wanted to say the truth, to tell him how she was really feeling, but she stayed quiet, and she gazed into his caramel eyes, knowing he'd never understand. He wouldn't understand that she loved him with everything she had. Laura had loved Matthew with every fiber of her being.
It was sad really, only because he didn't feel the fragment of it.
He cared.
"Why's that, beautiful?" And Laura wanted to punch his arm because he was acting so charming. She only rolled her eyes, biting her tongue from saying something sarcastic.
And they continued to walk, until they made it to the hotel, all of them entering the lift and making it to their floor. Laura had let go of Matthews hand to go to her room and Matt was already missing the way Laura's presence was near him.

So Matthew asked lowly to Dusty if she could spend the night with Cameron and let Laura and him by themselves. She'd agreed with a smug grin and he only chuckled, shouting to use protection.
Laura was surprised to see Matthew behind her and her eyebrows furrowed. "What are-"
"Sleeping with you tonight, we need to talk," Laura just nodded with a sigh. She was still worked up from the kiss, and Laura was having mind twists of some sort.
They both entered the room and closed the door behind them. Laura mumbled a quiet ' I'm going to take a quick shower' and Matthew only nodded. As she went to shower, he was debating on what he should tell her.
Would he admit that he's falling in love with her? Or was it too early?
Yes you frog it's too early, she's still shaken up from the kiss.
Matthew shushed his subconscious and decided to ask her how she felt.
There.
Little did he know it wasn't that easy.
Matthew decided to get his clothes from the other room, coming back quickly, and to his fortunate Laura was still showering. He changed quickly into his sleepwear and kept running his hand through his short hair.
Damn I'm nervous.
Matthew heard the shower turn off and after a good fifteen minutes, Laura was out of the bathroom in her pajama shorts, and huge tee that barely did a good job at hiding her breath taking curves. All Matthew could think of was how incredibly attractive Laura had gotten since they were little.
Her hair was much more silky and long, cascade dropping below her shoulders, hitting her mid back. Her legs were much longer and her behind was probably the perfect curve.
That was the least of his worries now.

Laura's dark eyes met Matthews light ones and they both sort of blushed because they were nervous. Laura tucked a piece of wet hair behind her ear and sat on the bed, opposite of where Matty was standing. Laura couldn't take her eyes off of his because all she could think was how amazing he looked and how she was in love with him and how her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
The world works in mysterious ways, you just have to be patient.
And Laura was. She was more than patient.
Matthew walked up to the bed and sat beside her and laced his fingers with Laura's, both their hearts fighting the urge.
The urge we all knew.
Matthew lost contact with Laura as her eyes drifted to their hands and he scooted closer, making sure there was no space left, and he knew he had to speak up.
"Lo, what's going on? You haven't spoken more than three words since, the uh kiss," Matt stuttered and wanted to face palm himself.
Finally, Laura's eyes met his and both their breaths hitched.
Laura was surprised at his question and all she did was shrug because what was she suppose to tell a boy that was adored by millions?
"I donno, I'm just a little shocked I guess,"
"You guess," he repeats and sighs. Laura slips her hand from Matthews and he almost loses his breath because of the cold gesture.
Laura stood up with folded arms, staring at Matthew. His gaze was soft yet angered and full of different emotions and his lips looked kissable and all she wanted to do was shut her stupid mind up.
"Yes Matthew, I guess. What do you want me to tell you?" Matthew stood up and Laura had to back away because she couldn't really think straight being close to him.
"Tell me how you feel?" He reached out for her but Laura stepped back again and Matt felt like he was losing her again.
Fuck fuck fuck I love you, stop walking away from me.
But he couldn't say that.
Laura laughed hysterically. "I don't know what I feel, Matt, it's hard to tell someone that, you out of everyone should know that," and Matthew knew it. He did. But goddammit was he frustrated.
"Okay, I'm sorry, Lo." Laura nodded even though she wanted to tell him.
"S' fine," she mumbled looking away. "Why'd you kiss me?" She felt the need to cry.
God I need to calm the hell down.
Matthew felt like shouting because how was she so blind?
"You really expect me to believe like you don't know?" Laura shrugged and looked back at the boy she'd fallen in love with.
"Goddamn Laura," he huffed and raked his hand through his hair.
Everything was very complicated between the both of them and the night was ending soon because it was already 3am and sunrise was soon to reveal and both their nerves were jumping as for their hearts and all Matthew could do now was pray things wouldn't be different after what he'd admit.
"Laura, I have feelings for you, and I can't shake them away, nor ignore them."
And it was all terribly unforgiven of the drunken moon to cause such actions of the night.

Adagio of the Enlightened
The Elders will tell you the stories and lore. Of our ancestors, their deeds, and of the foes of yore. They will praise to you the chariot, and how it flew to the stars. How it stole the sun's light and slew the night’s roar.The Shamans will tell you the tales of their wisdom. Their wars on schism, and the unlettered world of ours before. Perhaps they will sing you the songs of what our clans' ancient customs tore. Poems of how our ancestors took what the discs had offered them, the manna and the mundane, and made it more.The kings will tell you of the follies, the sins, and the anecdotes of all our ancestors' wrongs. They will curse to you their names, the Ender of Fate and the Ruined Song. How they had dug up the hearts of the discs, euchred its relics, and blasphemed its prophecies, with oracles withdrawn.But they will only tell you the legends, recount the myths, and sing the allegories washed ashore.The Elders, the Shamans, and the kings can only retell what the storytellers of their own time had voiced. What they have read in books or heard in the minstrels' songs they adore.They don't know what really happened. They were never there.They can't tell you how our ancestors slew the angels from the sky, and sent them back to where they belonged. How they poisoned our minds, and made our people slothful and feeble, with the reforms they had undergone.But I can.I can tell you how the Ender of Fate severed destiny's strings, weakened them, and weaved them to our feeble flesh and souls.I can tell you how the Ruined song razed the heavens with her blood-stained melody, and reshaped our hell into utopia, with the deaths she deplored.Because I was there. I can tell you the truth, with my virtue strong. ----> Disclaimer: This will be a slow-burn, character-driven, non-harem, slice-of-life web novel with cultivation and kingdom-building elements.
