A/N: I only own the OC
Thanks for the reviews.
Constance POV
It had been a week since Phil and I talked. I forced myself to forget about Phil. I knew that he had walked away from me and he didn't deserve another chance. I knew that Bryan didn't recognize me and I was grateful for that because I actually liked the guy.
I was going over to Matt's for a small get together tonight. I wasn't really looking forward to it since Phil was going to be there, but I didn't care because I was going for Matt and Bryan. Matt was a very close friend now.
I walked through the gate and Phil immediately spotted me. I tried to ignore him as I walked over to Bryan. I sat on his lap and he smiled at me.
I was laughing as Phil and Paul (Justin Gabriel) were goofing off. I watched as everything started to happen in slow motion. Paul caught Phil off guard and he shoved him into the pool. Phil tried to stop himself, but hit his head on the way into the pool.
The water immediately tinted red and everyone froze.
"Shit." Paul said and I was already into the pool.
I drove in and hauled Phil to the surface. I knew that he was knocked out cold and it wasn't a good situation. Matt and Paul grabbed Phil and pulled him onto the concrete. Bryan pulled me out of the pool.
I watched as Matt checked for breathing and started to give compressions to get him to breath. I was praying with everything in me that he would wake up and be all right. I didn't want him to get hurt. Bryan has his arms around me as we all breathed a sigh of relief when Phil started to cough and spit out water.
The ambulance got there a few minutes later and immediately took Phil to the hospital. Matt and Justin followed them. Bryan, Heath, and I stayed to clean up and made phone calls to tell them that the get together was cancelled.
"You ok?" Bryan asked me a little later as we finished putting everything up.
"Yeah, just not how I thought the night would turn out." I admitted. He laughed and nodded.
"Well, how about the make the night a little better and see a movie?" he asked me.
"What about Phil?" I asked him. I knew they were close, and I was shocked that he just wanted to leave.
"Matt texted me and said they were keeping him over night for a concussion. Check your phone; I'm sure he texted you too." He said and I nodded. I looked and found the same text.
"Fine." I agreed and he smiled at me.
Phil POV
I groaned when I opened my eyes; my entire body felt like a thousand pounds. I tried to sit up, but that wasn't a good idea as nausea swept over me.
"He's awake." I heard a familiar voice say and I pried my eyes open to find Matt sitting next to me.
"What happened?" I asked him.
"You and Justin were goofing off and he shoved you a little too hard. You hit your head on the way into the pool." He said and I sighed.
"Who pulled me out?" I asked him as I realized that my tongue was like sandpaper.
"Constance." He said and I was surprised.
"Is she ok?" I managed to ask him.
"Yeah, I think her and Bryan salvaged the night by going to a movie." He said and I sighed.
I listened as the doctor told me that they were going to keep me overnight. I didn't care at the moment, but I wanted to sleep. I didn't want any pain medicine, because I didn't take it.
They finally let me sleep around midnight and I was grateful. Matt refused to go home and stayed with me that night.
Constance POV
I got up the next morning and went into the office. I was glad that Phil was all right. I was finalizing some plans for a few different dates that were coming up when someone knocked on my office door.
"Yes?" I called out.
"Ms. Constance, you have a visitor." They said and I couldn't figure out who it could be. I wasn't expecting anyone.
"Send them in, please." I said and a few seconds later Matt stuck his head in the door. I smiled and was glad to see him.
"Hey, what's up?" I asked him.
"I just dropped Phil off and wanted to see if you wanted lunch." He said and I smiled.
"That would be great." I said and he smiled.
We left and drove to a nearby outdoor market. I let Matt choose and we grabbed kababs and salads. We walked over to a nearby fountain and ate. I was glad to spend time with Matt because he was so easy to talk to about everything.
"I wanted to thank you for last night. I don't know why we all froze." He said and I shrugged.
"I just didn't want to see anyone get hurt." I said and he smiled at me. He really did have a nice smile.
"I just wish that I knew why Phil doesn't like you." He said and I shrugged.
"Who knows, but I have come to learn that it doesn't matter if everyone likes me." I said and he nodded.
"I agree with that." He said.
We talked a little longer and I agreed to come over for pizza tonight since he was having everyone else over tonight because last night was a disaster.
Phil POV
I was at Matt's when we got back. He wanted me to stay with him until we went back on the road in case anything is wrong.
"I'm back and Constance is coming over tonight with everyone else." He said and I nodded as I focused on the TV. I swore that he liked her even if he wouldn't admit it.
I sat up when everyone started to get there and everyone was asking me if I was alright.
"I will go get Constance." I said and started towards the door.
"Try not to piss her off." Bryan said and I wanted to slap him for that remark. He had no idea.
I walked over and knocked on her back door. She appeared a minute later and let me inside.
"Thanks for saving me." I said to her.
"I didn't want your death on my karma." She said as she grabbed her stuff to walk next door.
"Can you be nice to me?" I asked her and she spun around to face me.
"Have you given me a reason to be? I am sorry that you have a head injury, but that's not a reason to be nice to you." She shot back. I sighed and looked at her.
"Fair enough." I mumbled and she started towards the door.
"Are you ever going to tell Bryan?" I asked her.
"Are you?" she asked me and I smirked.
I walked over to her and she was looking at me with conflicted eyes. I sighed as she ran a hand over my check; I had a bruise from last night when I fell. I couldn't help it; I pulled her to me and pressed my lips to hers.
Matt POV
Phil had been gone for awhile so I slipped out to make sure that he wasn't annoying Constance. I walked to the back door and was shocked to see Phil pull her in for a kiss. I knew right then that I didn't have the whole story.
