It's been a while since I have updated anything and I am really sorry for that. Mid terms are coming within a few weeks and I only have till then to finish a hella lot of assignments and project that will probably set me back during clearance ( I might not graduate..Ahehehehe QwQ). Anyways,I'll try my best. Keyword:TRY.
It had been days since Antonio left. Matt was sulking around the house,trying to fix things managed to throw away the broken vase and glass from the fallen frames. He also put them back up even without the glass. The blond took out the pictures of him and Antonio together and put them on the glass coffee table (He was glad they didn't manage to break it in the fight.). He looked at the pictures before moving on the kitchen. Matt washed the plates that had gathered in the sink for weeks. He opened the window to the let the flies out before he washed and dried them. He looked around the rom and smiled a bit. His first smile in months.
Matt opened the windows to let some light in. He smiled even more when he felt the warm gentle rays of the sun hit his pale body. "When was the last time I even went out…..?" He thought to himself before cleaning up some more.
After a few hours,he was done. Matt did the laundry,took out the garbage,cleaned the attic and so much more. He felt so proud of himself for finally getting out of bed an doing something productive.
"Now…Time for a shower before finishing off the rest of the chores." He said to himself as he went upstairs and took a quick shower.
After a few minutes,he heard a knock on the door while putting on pants. He rushed down,forgetting to cover up the scars he put on himself. It was a long story but he was over it and history does not want to repeat itself. He was getting healthier.
Matt opened the door,expecting a random new neighbour since they seem to come and go every few months. But this time it wasn't a new neighbour. It was Antonio.
His eyes widened as he slowly back away while Antonio walked towards him,looking all over his chest before back up at him."Mattie….."
"Stop…."
"Mattie…Please."
"Stop.."
"Mattie..Just please.."
"I said stop."
"Just please look at me."Antonio held his hands.
"STOP!"He looked at him.
Antonio blinked as he looked at him,surprised at the outburst.
"Why do you keep on coming here?! You've already hurt me so much! Is my pain already not enough?! Are these scars not enough? Do you want me to hand my heart to you on a silver platter? Because I already did! But you know what you did with that? You threw it away,laughed at my face and said that it wasn't I wasn't enough…I wanted to talk to you..Ask what was the problem,what made you change?... But you just got mad,we fought and it was over. We didn't talk or see each other. You moved out. I wanted to fix things up but you didn't say where you were going. Not even a note or a little message…." He breathed in." I tried moving on. I really did. I went out with friends and family…. Even co-workers but every time that I did..I would always hear your name..What happened to Antonio? Did he find someone else?...It was always Antonio this Antonio that..They didn't even care how I felt. It was all about you and nothing else. Not even my family cared as much for me as they did you. They were even mad at me. Mad that I didn't try getting back with you but it was the opposite. I kept on sending you messages but you won't respond to any of them…. Not a single one…."He pulled away from him and covered his body with the towel and turned away.
"Matthew…I'm so sorry… I wanted to get to you but….…."Antonio reached out for him.
" But what? You were too busy finding another to even look at what I was sending you…I swallowed my pride… But it was probably just nothing to you….. It always was.."Matt chuckled. "But that doesn't matter anymore..You're married and I have nothing to do with you anymore and same goes for you doesn't it?" The blond began to walk back to the bit his lip,seething with anger as he went over to him and forcibly turned Matthew around.
"You don't know how much I regretted those words! I was so stupid. I didn't think it through..I thought that…..that.."Antonio trailed off.
"That what? That it was just another one of your pranks? That it didn't hurt? That our relationship was just a joke? That you thought you could easily get me back again? You were wrong. You were finally wrong. And what do you mean that you regretted those words? You said them loud and clear. You even repeated them multiple times. I'm sure you weren't drunk. You stayed in the house the whole day,talking with your friends and chatting with them. Not paying a single ounce of attention to me."He glared at him."Close the door when you leave." He added before going ,Antonio didn't follow.
Antonio just looked down at his feet."So that's what he's been thinking..? He thought that I thought that our relationship was a joke..? I guess he was right…. I didn't treat him the way I was supposed to..He deserved so much better…"He said as he made his way to the door when he turned his head and saw that their pictures were removed. "I guess I better go…"
