{Iris's POV}
It's been 6 months and I haven't heard from Matt since I left. I don't even know if he read my note. I decided to rewatch the video of the pool-battle.
POOL-A-PALOOZA! Ft. Iris Magee!
I clicked on the video. I remember every single part of the video by heart. I watched as I dragged Matt down into the pool. I laughed. I scrolled down to the comments.
What ever happened to Iris, anyways?
I sighed.
I went on my phone and watched the video of Matt and I on the hill singing to each other.
"All the right friends in all the right places." Matt sang. "So yeah we're going down."
"Everybody knows everybody knows where we're going." I sang. I laid down in my bed.
I snapped. I looked at how much money I had. Good enough for me.
I threw everything I could into my bag. I got dressed into a black sweater with shorts, cat stockings, and converse. I did my hair as well as I could. Same goes with my makeup. I did it casual, though, just the way Matt liked it.
I ran out of the house and to the airport. "One ticket for Glendale, California." I said to the lady. "Boarding in one minute. She said. I grabbed the ticket and ran to the line. I had just enough time to make it to the gate. I barely made it. I took my seat. I was so damn excited to come back to Glendale. I already told Mark when I was on my way to the airport that I was coming back. He told me to not tell the other two. And so I didn't.
-Time Skip-
I walked down the street. I arrived at Mark's house. I paused for a minute. I texted Mark
You: Guess Who's not even a foot away from your house?
Mark: I'll get Ryan down here. Matt isn't home.
I heard him come down the stairs. He started a fake conversation about editing or something. I rang the doorbell. "Ryan can you get that?" Mark asked. Ryan opened the door. "Hi." He said. He didn't even realize. Then it hit. His eyes widened and he became still. I've never seen him this shocked before. Actually, I didn't know what he was feeling. I couldn't read his expression.
There was a silence
"Guess who's back?" I asked.
He hugged me so tight I could barely breathe. He then tackled me to the ground in one continuous hug. "Ryan calm down Jesus!" I laughed out. He stood up. "Calm down?! You're right in front of me!" He said. He had tears in his eyes. "Come in!" He said. I grabbed my suitcase and walked in.
I sat at the table. "Why'd you come back?" He asked. "To live here." I said. "And guess who knew about all of this?" I asked. Mark have Ryan a sly look. "Dick! Why didn't you tell anyone?" He asked laughing. "Surprises." He shrugged. "Dude. Matt's in the drive way." Ryan said. "So?" I asked. "Go in his bedroom and just sit on the bed on your phone or something. Just act live you live here." Ryan said. I ran upstairs. I heard Matt unlock the door.
" Hey." He said.
He didn't sound as loud or as hyper or as happy as usual. He just sounded plain. He acted like himself in KWP videos.
"I'm just gonna, lay down for a bit." He said. My heart sank. I was nervous. Yet excited. I heard him open the door and turn the light on. I looked up at him. "Oh hey, what's up?" I asked him. He practically jumped onto me and hugged me.
"You're- You're in front of me sitting on my- I can't- Jesus Christ you look even more beautiful than before." He said. He was crying. "Thanks you cheeky kid." I said. He laughed. "God you're even taller than before." I said. He laughed.
Ryan, Matt, Mark and I were in my room for the rest of the night. Telling each other about ourselves. Telling me what happened while I was gone. Telling them what happened while they were gone. Smiles and laughter circulated around the room. Everything was finally back to normal.
