I pull out my phone and text Carter.

D- Thx and lol

I shut off my phone and Matt turns away.

“Dude I know you were watching me.” I snicker.

He frowns and I nudge his elbow.

I start singing ‘Cheer Up  by A Great Big World.

Cheer up!

'Cause nothing really matters when you look up into outer space

It's a great big world and there's no need to cry

Cheer up!

We're all interconnected to the reaches of the galaxy

And my best friend says he came from the sky

He traveled to the Earth aboard a pink spaceship,

It's hard for him to hide behind those eyes

Cheer up!

The atoms in your body are as old as every dinosaur

You're a special part of one big grand design

Cheer up!

We're all in this together to discover what we're living for

Thirteen billion years and there's still time

Every night I wish upon a star so bright,

Waiting for the others to arrive

Cheer up!

'Cause nothing really matters when you look up into outer space

It's a great big world and there's no need to cry

Thirteen billion years and there's still time

Matt just looks at me.

"Uh, what you looking at?"

"Your an amazing singer."

I blush, "No I'm not Matt."

He smiles, "Trust me you are."

I shake my head, "Say what you want Matt. I dont think you are hearing me right. I am not a good singer."

He lifts my chin with his hand.

"I dont lie Kota." 

I dont respond.

"Sing another song."

"I dont know Matt."

"Please."

Guess it's true, I'm not good at a one-night stand

But I still need love 'cause I'm just a man

These nights never seem to go to plan

I don't want you to leave, will you hold my hand?

Oh, won't you stay with me?

'Cause you're all I need

This ain't love it's clear to see

But darling, stay with me

Why am I so emotional?

No it's not a good look, gain some self control

And deep down I know this never works

But you can lay with me so it doesn't hurt

Oh, won't you stay with me?

'Cause you're all I need

This ain't love it's clear to see

But darling, stay with me

Oh, won't you stay with me?

'Cause you're all I need

This ain't love it's clear to see

But darling, stay with me

Oh, won't you stay with me?

'Cause you're all I need

This ain't love it's clear to see

But darling, stay with me

"I still dont see where your getting your information from." Matt says.

I blink back tears, "Just let it go Matt. Please."

"Okay, but before I do."

He pressed his lips onto mine.

It wasnt a smiple kiss, it was a passionate one.

I was so suprised that I pulled away.

I grabbed my backpack and got up.

I feel my eyes tear up, "I-Im sorry Matt."

With that, I ran out of the building.
