"Lilli." I heard someone mumble softly, shaking me. "Lilli." They whispered harsher. "Get up!" I felt whoever it was shove me off the bed.

"Wha?!" When did I fall asleep?

"You fell asleep." Matty said, sitting on the bed. I glared at him as I stood up and walked to the closet.

"No shit sherlock." I said as I opened the door and grabbed one of my bags.

"You're in Justan's room." He said slowly, as if I wouldn't get it.

"Yep." I said, finally giving up hiding my body and grabbing my "booty" shorts that were red with a black hem type thing, and a black tank top that went a little past my hips. It was damn hot, and the clothes I had on were too heavy. I was use to having to wear skimpy clothes that I wasn't comfortable in while around the house and baggy clothes in public, so I guess that's why I picked those clothes out really. Like I said: my dad is possessive; he didn't want anyone seeing my body while we were in public. But, unlike when my dadforced picked my clothes for me, I was comfortable in the ones I chose.

"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing?!" Matt screamed, pulling a pillow over his head, as I started to pull my shirt off.

"Changing." I said slowly, still pulling my shirt off.

"In front of me?" Matt asked slowly, putting the pillow down.

"Don't see why not. I have underwear on. They're just like a bathing suit." I said through my tank top as I pulled it over my head. I situated my bra straps before throwing my over sized red shirt onto my bag.

"Most girl won't change in front of guys." Matt said, sounding sorta sad. I nearly laughed at his tone, but the thought of how most girls would act after going through what I did stopped me.

"Well, I'm not most girls." I smirked as I pulled my jogging pants off and pulled my shorts on. I dug through a different bag for a pair of socks, and pulled out my red and black plaid ones. Not sure why, but they're my favorite.

"You must have a thing for red and black." Matt laughed, and my eyes caught on those glowing red numbers.

"And you must have a thing for waking people up at all hours of the night. Jesus! It's one o'clock in the freaking' morning!"

"Oh yeah! Justan probably won't be home tonight." My eyebrow raised.

Why do I give a shit? "Okay." I said slowly, sitting next to Matt on the edge of the bed, yawning.

"Got drunk and met some chick." He informed me. I don't know why that made my heart beat faster and my stomach hurt. Maybe I'm hungry.

"Why do I care?" I tried to laugh. Matt just shrugged.

"Okay, I'm off to the guest room." He said, stretching as he stood up. I didn't want him to go though. I didn't really want to be alone. "Night Lilli." I nodded, but couldn't stop my hand from grasping his wrist before he walked away.

"You can stay in here you know." I smiled softly.

"Are you sure, cause-"

"It's not like we're gonna have sex or anything. I just ... well, I don't wanna be alone." Matt returned my smile and laid down with me.

"Night." He said, wrapping his arms around my waist.

Me not thinking it was such a big deal, just let him. "Night." I echoed, cuddling my back into his chest before my eyes slowly drifted shut again.
