Disclaimer: i own Matt and the plot.
A/N-okay. so i'm still not sure what to do with the whole Matt Suze thing, but right now i'm keeping it the way it is. I may change it later. i'm not sure, but if i do make Matt and Suze hook up, or make Matt like Suze, i'm gonna make her end up with Jesse in the end, and i don't want Matt to have to leave or anything so....the point of this is i'm still not sure. Which i should have just said at the beggining. but that would be too easy.
Despite my protests Jesse left a couple of hours later to go visit Father Dominic, promising to be back soon. I sighed and stared at my ceiling. Then I grinned. He was back.
He was BACK.
I rolled out of bed and walked down stairs to grab something to eat. Dopey glanced up from the comics he was reading when I walked in.
"Why are you smiling?" he said.
"Aren't I allowed to be happy once in a while?" I asked.
"No." He muttered. "It's creeping me out." I shook my head. Step brothers. I grabbed a bowl of cereal and took it up to my room, fully prepared to actually write my admissions essay this time, but when I came into my room Matt was already there. He was standing by the window with his hands in his pockets looking out at the ocean.
"Matt?" I said. He jumped. Then seeing it was just me he grinned,
"Sooooooooooooooo," he said. "Jesse is back." I couldn't stop a stupid smile from spreading across my face.
"Suze and Jesse, sitting in a tree," he singsonged, pushing his floppy brown hair out of his eyes. I shook my head.
"Since when are you in second grade?" I asked.
"K I S S I and G" he said tickling me. I grinned and punched his arm.
"It's "N G" not "and G" you moron." I said Matt rubbed the place where I'd punched him looking mildly affronted.
"Same difference." he said. He reached over and pulled the chair out from my desk straddleing it backwards.
"So, where's Romeo gone to?" he asked.
"Oh, he went to see Father Dom, to tell him he's back." I said vaguely. Matt looked fake-shocked.
"He leaves the love of his...afterlife to go visit a priest???" He grimaced.
"What're you doing?" I say laughing.
"Trying to look scandalized. Is it working?"
"It's coming off more as constipated." I say. Matt shakes his head.
"I get no respect." he says.
"Please don't start singing Aretha Franklin." I say. Matt grins then says,
"So he's back for good this time right?" I sigh.
"Yah. I think so. Well, at least I'm pretty sure. Jesse gets these half-baked ideas sometimes that he thinks are for my own good so he does something stupid. I can never really be sure if he's going to stay." I say sadly. Then I look at Matt, "you think you could try and convince him not to leave or anything? Or at least to give me some warning next time?"
"My going rate is fifty bucks an hour." he says, laughing as I punch him in the shoulder.
"You really love him don't you?" he says, suddenly serious. I nod. He gives me a lopsided grin.
"Well invite me to the wedding babe." Then he disappears.
