matty blue eyes is secretly my fave, js.

your pov

Matt is my best friend.

Matt is my best friend.

Matt is my best friend.

Of all the people my heart could've chosen to fall for, I chose the most regular human being with the big blue eyes.

I could've fallen in love with a vampire, a werewolf, or a witch. However, the supernatural seemed all the same to me.

Elena, Caroline, Bonnie, and I used to be the ultimate group of best friends a girl could ever wish for.

Then we drifted apart. Our Gang of Four turned into just a trio, and something terrible happened to me.

Approaching my sixteenth birthday, I was attacked outside of a hotel room on vacation. I don't have many memories of anything at all from that day. All that I can conclude, is that I'm now a vampire, forever.

Matt and I still see each other regularly. He's the only one out of my old life that knows what happened to me. I trust him with my biggest secret and in return he gives me friendship. For that, I am eternally grateful.

I have no one but Matt. I'm a lost cause, and I wonder from country to country trying to find a friend, a companion, anything. Unfortunately, I'm stuck stealing bags of blood from local and international hospitals to stay alive.

"Y/N!"

"Matt! I've missed you so much." I shriek, running towards him.

"You've got to get out of here. Stefan and Caroline followed me. I know you don't want them knowing about y--" he rushes to say as I'm taking it all in, but he's cut off by an all too familiar voice.

"Y/N?"

"Caroline."

"No, wait. I'm sorry? I thought you like disappeared off the face of the Earth." She smirks.

What's so funny about me "disappearing off the face of the Earth" to her?

"Her humanities off." Matt says, walking to me.

"Hey! So is mine!" Stefan butts in.

"I never died. I was attacked and someone turned me." I explain rudely.

"Ooh-- that sucks." She smiles.

"I'm leaving now. Matty, c'mon." I say, dragging him out.

"You didn't stay for the party!" Caroline complains, stomping her feet and Stefan drains the nearest person while everyone else watches in fear.

"I've got my own party to attend." I say, pulling Matt out of the diner and into my car.

"I'm taking you somewhere far away." I tell Matt.

"Woah, woah. Where? I can't go far from Mystic Falls. Too much is happening for me to just leave." Matt replies sternly.

"It'll be good for you. You're just a human, Matt."

"What's that supposed to mean? I'm perfectly capable of handling my own life." He retorts.

"I know. I just don't want you hurt in any way." I sigh.

"I've died, Y/N. I can handle anything that anyone puts on me." He promises, taking my right hand in his and rubbing my knuckles soothingly.

"I'm a bad one-handed driver, sweet pea." I smile, looking at the road ahead.

"Well, there's a park coming up on your left." Matt suggests.

I take my next left and park near a tree, for shade of course.

"Never been here. It's so cute!" I say excitedly, taking in my surroundings.

"I wanna take you to the pond. We can feed the ducks." Matt says, pulling my arm lightly in the opposite direction of where we are parked.

"Feed them what? Blood?" I smirk.

"Okay, let's make a deal. While we're here, no talk of blood, vampires, or any of that supernatural bullshit I deal with." Matt states.

"Deal."

I quickly jog to the edge of the pond and sit down in the grassy area. The family of ducks were floating around near the center.

"This is so peaceful. It's like there's nothing out of the ordinary and everything is just, ordinary." I sigh contently.

"Can I ask you something, Y/N?" Matt breaks the awkward silence.

"Of course, anything." I smile, turning to face him.

"Do you think I'm ordinary?" He asks lowly.

"Yes."

His face falters slowly and I can tell his mood changed entirely by just one word.

"But that's okay, Matt. I'm tired of extraordinary and try-hard people. You're exceptionally ordinary, you exceed the expectation of ordinary. You're the perfect ordinary, Matty. Calm, collected, and peaceful. I like you just the way you are."

His mood immediately changes and he says, "how come you always know exactly what to say?"

"It's a gift." I smirk.

"Thank you, for keeping me sane these past couple of years. I wouldn't be able to get through this without you." He says.

"Neither would I. I'd be alone, lost, and probably dead." I admit.

The silence between us was much needed. It was relaxing to hear the sounds of the water, the fish jumping, and the ducks quacking.

"Is it wrong to fall in love with a vampire?"

What an odd question to break up in our deal of "no supernatural" conversation.

"No, why?"

"Because I think I'm in love with you, Y/N."

My heart skips a beat and my stomach does somersaults at that sentence. This was everything I've been wanting to hear from him, for so long. Even before I stopped aging.

"I've loved you, Matt. For as long as I knew what love was." I say.

I lean my head on his shoulder and watch the sun start to set over the pond.

"Are you gonna kiss me or what?" I smirk.

He seems quite intrigued by my sudden flourish of confidence, as I am myself. Nevertheless, he captures my lips in a sweet and romantic kiss.

It was the most extraordinary thing I've ever done.
