"hi mr bolton. Can I talk to you?"
Troy nods and Matt moves inside as Troy shuts the door behind them. They moved move into the living room.
" So what did you want to talk about?"
"oh just see how things were. "
" everything's ok."
Matt then looks around at the room. Troy seen Matt's face and new what's up.
" Ok spill it. What's on the go?"
" what do you mean?"
" I know something's up by your face." He said kinda know what was coming.
" Ok well I wanted to ask for Brooke's hand."
" Oh wow. I thought you were going to say something else."
" oh god no. We're too young for that yet. So what do you say?"
" I don't know matt."
" please mr Bolton. Even you can't deny how much I love Brooke."
" yes Matt. Even I know that but my answer is no. I mean your just too young."
" you know what, your right. Thanks for your time though."
With that he then left. He then drove back to his parents to get Brooke and went on to Jason's place.
" Are you ok Matt?" She asked him.
"not really and no I don't want to talk about it." He said with a tone.
They then got to Jason's. Brooke got out and went inside, while Matt just sat there. Jason then came out at.
" hey bro, how it go?"
" i don't want to talk about."
" That bad?"
" He said no. I don't get how he said no."
" did he say any..."
" Can't he see that I can provide for her or how much I love her?" matt said banging his head off the wheel.
"i don't know. Maybe he has his reasons."
"maybe. Look if I'm not back in time can you give her a run back?" He asked as Jason nodded.
Brooke went inside and started talking to Katie.
" So I heard you need to talk to me."
" yeah let's just talk and catch up on things. So how's California?"
" its good. what about you?"
" Everything's good here. So am I going to have my drinking buddy tomorrow night?"
" actually cant drink. You see umm ..."
" Are you pregnant?" She asked with a smile. Brooke then smiled and nodded.
" But don't tell anyone."
" How long?"
" Like 5 weeks. Not long really. "
" so do Matt know?"
" No and with the way he's bee acting lately, I don't think I want to." Just then Jason came back in and sat with them.
" So what are you talking about?" He asked
" nothing." They both said.
Two days after the wedding and Matt and Brooke are back in their apartment in California. Matt was finishing up some last minute stuff for work, while Brooke was just watching him.
" Do you have to watch me like that?" He said in a tone.
" I'm sorry. I'll leave you alone." She said going to her room crying.
matt by now was feeling bad what he done, but he didn't know what he did. He went Brooke and knocked on the door. He got no answer and knocked again. this time he got a go away. So that's what he did. He wrote a goodbye letter to Brooke and then left. He got in his truck and said to himself " where am I going to go?". He then drove around from place to place until he found another cheap apartment. Sure this one wasnt as good as the other one but it was good enough. While all this was happening, he couldn't help but think of what Troy had said. "your just too young." Was he right? We're we really just too young? Maybe it was a good thing that they don't get married now.
About an hour later Brooke came out and looked for him. She seen most of his stuff gone and all that was left was a letter from Matt:
dear Brooke,
im sorry for whatever I did to hurt. I love you so much that to hear you cry was making my heart break. So I don't know am I going or where I will end up. Just remember that will always love you and really sorry for whatever I did to hurt you.
love Matt.
when she read this she started to cry and started to dial his number.
" hello."
" Come home."
" One the way."
about 30 minutes after, Matt came in the driveway and got out. Brooke then ran to him.
" I miss you." She said while giving him kisses.
" I'm for whatever I did."
" it's okay."
