042.

When I went back inside the house my dad asked me if everything was fine and I told him everything was okay

Me and Mattia stayed a bit longer at my dads house before going back to my place

Both me and Mattia were sitting in the couch as we watched Superbad

"I know you told your dad everything was okay but you didn't look like you meant it" Mattia says "did something happened between you and Alyssa?"

"Yeah" I softly said as tears formed in my eyes again as I thought about Alyssa "she not my friend anymore"

I've been holding in my tears because I didn't want my dad to see me like this but now that I'm home I can finally let it all out, which is what I did

Mattia pulled me onto his lap and wrapped his arms around me, he rubbed my back as I cried onto the crook of his neck

Mattia didn't say anything, which I liked, I rather have silence than him telling me that I'll be okay when we both know there's no way in earth that I'll be okay with losing my only friend

Me and Alyssa have been friends for a pretty long time so I can't just forget about her in a matter of seconds

"Want to go get something to munch on?" Mattia says

"It's twelve in the morning, all the stores are closed" I say as my breathing was kinda off due to the crying

"Gas stations are open" he says "we don't have to if you don't want to, we can just stay here like this" he said moving my hair out of my face and giving me a warm smile

How can I say no to that smile "okay, let's go to the gas station" I answered as I wipe my tears and paused the movie that was playing on the tv

When we arrived at the gas station Mattia whispered in my ear as we looked at the drinks "do you have any money on you?"

"You came here without money?!" I furrowed my eyebrows "I only have like five dollars on my phone case"

"Okay good" he answered and began looking around

"Mattia?" I say, I know he's up to something

"Let me know what you want" he said

"Mattia?" I repeat myself

"Calm down" he assures me "we're just going to borrow somethings"

"We're going to get—"

"No we're not, come on it'll be fun" he gently punches my shoulders "I promise we're not going to get caught okay?"

"Okay" I nod

"Let's look at the candy" he grabs my arm and pulls me to the candy aisle "pick" he tells me

"Umm those gummy bears" I say "can I get some chips too?" I ask

"Anything you want" he gives me a smile

"Some hot Cheetos, fruit punch Arizona, and that cookies and cream ice cream" I answered

"Ice cream?! Where am I suppose to put it without getting caught" Mattia says

"Right here" I said tugging on his pants "you promised we won't get caught"

Mattia smiles and shakes his head "go distract the cashier while I get the stuff, make a scene, when you see me tying my shoe it's me telling you I got all the stuff"

I nod and walk up to the cashier

"Hey, do you guys have any tampons" I told the guy working at the store
