you come first. (mattia polibio)

toxic (part 82)

(luna's pov)
it was friday and everyone was getting ready to go to a party at another beach near by. it was around 5pm and everyone was going, me being a 70 year old woman at heart i was planning to just stay home. i know i'm lame but i don't even need to explain why i hate parties at this point. i walked downstairs and mattia was sitting on the couch. i sat down next to him and said,

"what beach is the party at?"
"lavallette" mattia said.

i nodded.

"are you sure you want to stay here?" mattia asked.
"yeah" i said.
"i feel bad" mattia said.
"it's fine, have fun" i said and got up.
"oh, okay. bye" mattia said.

i walked back into my room and heard everyone leave. i laid down in my bed and watched grey's, of course. i watched netflix for almost an hour then got hungry. i put on a sweatshirt then went downstairs. the front door opened and jeremiah walked inside.

"what are you doing here?" i asked.
"i'm staying here?" he laughed.
"no i mean, aren't you supposed to be at the party?" i asked.
"what party?" jeremiah asked.
"everyone went to a party" i said.
"oh, i took naya to the airport. she had to go back early" jeremiah said.
"ohh" i said.
"so it's just you and me?" jeremiah asked.
"yup" i said.
"this'll be fun, it's like old times" jeremiah said.
"yeah, i miss those times" i said.
"me too" jeremiah said.

i got my snacks and jeremiah got some too then we both went upstairs. i laid back down on my bed and jeremiah also sat on the bed.

"we're watching grey's" i said.
"okay fine with me" jeremiah said.
"good" i smiled.

we watched an episode of grey's and jeremiah said,

"Meredith are you dumb?!" he said with a handful of hot cheetos in his hand.

i laughed and said,

"so you're liking the show hm?"
"play the next episode!!" jeremiah said.

i laughed and we kept watching grey's. i was enjoying jeremiah's company, tonight was peaceful and relaxing. hanging out with jeremiah is always so carefree it's a nice break. suddenly my phone rang. it was kairi. i picked it up, put it on speaker and said,

"hey"
"mattia tell her" kairi said.
"tell me what?" i asked.
"oh luna, hey" kairi said.
"why'd you call?" i said.
"i need to- mattia needs to tell you something" kairi said.
"hang up!" i heard mattia's voice from the background.
"kairi?" i said.
"mattia" kairi said.
"kairi you're a bitch, hang up" i heard mattia say.
"kairi whats going on-" i said then kairi hung up.

jeremiah looked at me then shook his head.

"i know" i said looking down.
"you're better than this. you deserve so much more" he said.
"is it toxic?" i asked jeremiah.
"i'm gonna be honest with you because i care about you. i'm not trying to get in between you and mattia for any personal intentions but..." jeremiah said.
"just tell me" i said as my voice cracked.
"it's pretty toxic. you and mattia fight constantly and always forgive eachother within a day" jeremiah said.

a tear fell down my face and jeremiah said,

"no luna don't cry i'm sorry"
"it's not you..." i said.
"i didn't mean to-" he said.
"you didn't. mattia did" i said crying.
